Kind of Funny or Kind of Offensive?

I don't know. The ladies over on Jezebel are up-in-arms over a tacky joke that former president, George H.W. Bush, told at an automobile dealer's convention (which Bill Clinton also attended). I dunno -- it's equal parts amusing and offensive, though I'm siding slightly with the amusing side, just because it's nice to see that Bush I has a sense of humor. Although, I don't know how wise it is to call out a woman for being one of the "ugliest" women he'd ever seen when you're married to Barbara Bush.
