How Low Can You Go?

US culture continues to spread across the planet, for better or (usually) worse... Jeff Jarvis jokes about Abu Ghraib as a TV sitcom.

Jarvis the Nazi-hunter seems to think that this is a possibility because Hogans Heroes was based on a Nazi POW camp. But the comparison surely would be with a Nazi Concentration camp, and anyone who even suggested such a thought would be slammed as anti-Semetic by the very people Jarvis likes linking to.

Even the idea that it might be OK now to start making jokes about Abu Ghraib - have we "moved on" yet? - is disgusting. Sad, pathetic little man.

If you don't think this sort of thing is OK, I urge you to go and register your protest in Jarvis' comments section. Otherwise the disease spreads, as we have all too often seen...

Hey Gandhi - check out ITM. Wadard has had some of his facts deleted by the blog owners and he has politely taken them to task. He mentions you as well.

I am sure there is room for your input ;)
