Lenny Bruce rules:

“I took exception. I took offense,” [police officer] Solden told Bruce. “We’ve tried to elevate this street. I’m offended because you broke the law. I mean it sincerely. I mean it. I can’t see any right, any way you can break this word down, our society is not geared to it.”
Bruce said, “You break it down by talking about it … How about a word like ‘clap’?”
“Well, ‘clap’ is a better word than ‘cocksucker,'” Solden replied.
“Not if you get the clap from a cocksucker,” Bruce rejoined.

Speaking of Salon.com, did anyone catch Joe Conason on Crossfire? Every single Liberal in the world should watch it, and learn. It was awesome.
And if you are sick to death of the myth of the liberal media, (meaning that you’re looking for a non-corporate, progressive, honest news source) you should really subscribe to Salon.
