Although, parents were concerned about Mr. Obama's speech to their children, that was only before he actually gave the speech which I was unfortunately unable to see. So there you stand corrected Uncle Jay. Nice definition of the word distort, Uncle Jay.

Now I'm sure there were some rants that got deleted, but it would be interesting to see what percentage that was (of course this is the internet, so my assumption of civility as the norm could be way off base). <em>Uncle Jay replies: Occasionally a comment on this site is edited to turn down the heat, but it's pretty rare for any comment to get deleted.

I agree with Donni - a balanced, and, as always, funny episode. “Perversation” should become a candidate for inclusion in the next dictionary editions, along with “truthiness.” I agree with Donni – a balanced, and, as always, funny episode.

However, in this one you denegrate the brave people who marched on Washington, DC, in protest of the people who are working to destroy the very freedom that makes it possible for you to post this video. (The video was a true demonstration that you know what the word "distort" means.) You also compare the people speaking out against the healthcare bill (or just pieces of it, as you said so distortingly) to those who deceptively only point out what they see as the good parts. Of course, your real fallacy there is the implication that there exist some good parts to this bill. On the contrary, it's all bad. Bravo to all of you who marched on 9/12. And shame on you, Uncle Jay. That rapper might want to change his name so he doesn't get a bad reputation by being linked with you. Normally, I find your videos amusing and on target.

Folks tend to gripe if you don't present their views. They forget that there are many more moderates in the country than those on the far right or the far left.

We were not happy about a lesson plan that asked "what can you do to help the president"... "What can you do to help the presidents goals"... Interestingly enough they rewrote that lesson plan... Then they rewrote the speech... Of course it was a very kid friendly speech, only after parents asked what was going to be in it... You have always been down the middle in the past, please keep it that way in the future... Uncle Jay, You Rock... Uncle Jay,
