It's real easy to confirm whether Mr. Leno is homophobic or not.
As a gay man, I am fed up with these attacks. Mr. Leno obviously knows
it's wrong, as he would NEVER denigrate blacks, Hispanics, Jews, or
Christians in this manner.
BTR1701 replied with the following (though at least three people said
Actually, he does make jokes about all those groups and more.
So, here's the challenge. Find me a joke Mr. Leno has made aimed at
blacks, Hispanics, Jews or Christians. Okay? Should be easy -- I
mean, I can quote six or seven jokes he's made about gays. And you've
got four times the minority groups here.

What kind of time limit do you guys want? Is a month okay? And then
somebody has to eat their words. At the end of the month, either I'll
admit that Mr. Leno attacks all groups semi-equally, or you admit that
the sniveling little coward has somehow decided gays -- unlike every
other minority group -- are still fair game. (Well, your words can be
a *little* different.)

So, who's signing up? BTR1701? Captain Infinity? Gooserider? Put
your money where your mouth is or get written off as the blowhards you
are.

It's weird how things change. I used to think Leno was too liberal,
but compared to Letterman, he's the "Conservative" one.

Needless to say, lately I've grown to like Leno more and I don't think
too highly of Letterman.

Dude, enough about Leno. Brokeback Mountain elicited giggly remarks
from nearly everyone in Hollywood. Sad, but true.

There's just no question that he is! But, he's also sexist & misogynistic.
His monologues for years & years now have had the sensitivity - and the
real actual wit - of a group of 12 year old boys! He's not funny & he's
offensive. Hit 'em with that one-two punch.

Don't blame it on Leno. In our society, it seems that jokes about
various minorities are *generally* considered acceptable as long as
they don't cross certain lines. It's just that those lines happen to be
in different places depending on the type of the minority, or sometimes
the specific minority if a recent event has affected sensitivity one
way or the other.

Society as a whole just seems to accept jokes about sexual orientation
somewhat more readily than they do jokes about ethnicity or religion.
Leno may be less sensitive than others, but he's not the
trend-setter...

It also depends on who is doing the jokes.

Jewish comedians have used self-deprecating humor about Jews for many
years. More recently, some of the gay teams on "The Amazing Race" have
enjoyed wallowing in what they know to be exaggerated gay stereotypes.

Generally, the line is crossed when either legal action is taken against
you, or violence is committed against you. Topical humor is always
pushing the envelope to see how far they can go before they're slapped down.

Any "dominance" is the result of the unintelligent dolts who don't know how
to change the channel on their WebTV from NBC to CBS. Many are probably
too fat to get off the couch and too poor to afford a new TV with a remote.

Leno won the Tonight Show gig because Letterman was too gritty for the NBC
executives and because of the fuckery of Leno's agent. Carson himself
wanted Letterman to get the slot, he stayed out of the decision because he
expected that the NBC braintrust had the intelligence to make the right
decision. Carson was wrong.

NBC went with the host they thought best fit their audience which had grown
old with Carson. Old, tired, irrelevant and easily amused. Those words
describe the Leno fans who tune in to his snoozefest. Even the few
Tonight Show viewers who are under thirty fit that description.

Leno can't hold a match to Letterman, not as a comedian, nor as a social
commentator. In the aftermath of 9-11, people tuned in to Letterman to
hear what he had to say. And he didn't disappoint. His comments were
heart-felt, genuine, and put a voice to what millions of people were
thinking but didn't have the words for. Leno is nothing more than a
comedy-writer's dummy. He mouths their jokes, there is no spark of
intelligence behind his words. Leno hasn't asked a controversial question
in years, if ever. Lastly, Leno has the advantage of being located in
Hollywood where the majority of the "stars" are located to attract star-
struck type viewers. Viewers like... you. Bottom line: Leno sucks.

All the smart people know that.

Too bad for you you aren't one of that group.

Nobody's "a nut." Jay Leno is simply a very lame comedian, with what
must be at least a fairly unintelligent fan base. Why else would he
feel compelled to *explain* at least half of his jokes after he tells
them.

And it's not that I prefer Letterman. If they were both to ride into
the sunset after their next shows, I wouldn't know the difference. No
dominance. No defeat.

I totally agree. We've got the worst president, and the most corrupt
administration, in the history of America. And Leno does what, one
joke a night about current events? And it's always a toothless one,
like Bush may be dumb, but nobody's perfect.

Letterman, on the other hand, gives humor with bite. I believe he now
does the "Famous Presidential Speeches" bit every night, where they
show clips from great speeches and then Bush saying idiocy like, "I had
a burrito for lunch." It's a brilliant bit, and IMHO Letterman is more
impressive than ever with the guts he's showing going after this
administration.

We've got a moron for president, and any comedian who doesn't latch
onto it and run -- like Leno did with Clinton -- is as fair and
unbiased as Fox News.

Mortimer, no wonder you're named after a dummy. I should have guessed
that somebody'd pull the typical Republican tactic of throwing up a
bunch of words and hoping something would stick.

Do me a favor and tell me how ANY of these jokes is aimed at a PEOPLE.
The Catholic Church is an institution, like the White House or the
Republican Party. See, here's how you can tell what's an institution
and what's PEOPLE: you can't do an impression of an institution. The
other jokes are on L. A. and Wal-Mart.

I don't watch Jay Leno, but telling jokes about a people doesn't
necessarily mean you're bigoted against that people. You never heard
comedians and comedy shows and movies with Jewish jokes? The stereotype
of the Jewish American Princess and so on. TV shows like "Saturday
Night Live" and movies like "Blazing Saddles" were just full of Jewish
jokes.

Jews have learned to take that stuff in stride and even turn it to their
advantage with self-deprecating humor.

As a minority group, Jews seem to have one big advantage over gays:
They can laugh at themselves. Even in public.

Yes, Mel Brooks reaches for the lowest common denominator in his humor,
too. Myself, I never liked him. And I could never recommend "The
Producers" to anybody because the dated, and man I mean dated, gay
stereotypes in it. Do we really need "Boys in the Band"-type
stereotypes in the new millineum?

I used to go to his films to see Madeline Kahn, who always made me
laugh no matter how bad the material.

But the Mel flicks generally, I could skip.

straight to the ad hominum...

Better luck next time, dude.

It is simply breathtaking to watch the glee and abandon with which
the liberal media and the Angry Left have been attempting to turn
our military victory in Iraq into a second Vietnam quagmire. Too bad
for them, it's failing.

So, here's the challenge. Find me a joke Mr. Leno has made aimed at
blacks, Hispanics, Jews or Christians. Okay? Should be easy -- I
mean, I can quote six or seven jokes he's made about gays. And you've
got four times the minority groups here.
http://www.newsmax.com/scripts/showliners.pl?a=2006/3/14/140116
"Last week in L.A. authorities shut down Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch. Hey
guys, what’s the hurry? You thought FEMA was slow to respond to a crisis. More
bad news. You know who bought it? The Catholic Church. "
http://www.newsmax.com/scripts/showliners.pl?a=2006/3/29/123309
a.. "Welcome to the "Tonight Show”. It's refreshing to see a crowd gathered in
L.A. that's not an immigration protest. "
a.. "This past weekend there were half a million illegal immigrants on the
streets of Los Angeles. And that was before the protest march. That was Friday.
"
a.. "Over a half a million people gathered. It looked like career day over at
Wal-Mart. "

Where in those jokes, did he mention any race? When he's ridiculing gays, he
specifically mentions gay people.

It's real easy to confirm whether Mr. Leno is homophobic or not.
As a gay man, I am fed up with these attacks. Mr. Leno obviously knows
it's wrong, as he would NEVER denigrate blacks, Hispanics, Jews, or
Christians in this manner.
BTR1701 replied with the following (though at least three people said
Actually, he does make jokes about all those groups and more.

What kind of time limit do you guys want? Is a month okay? And then
somebody has to eat their words. At the end of the month, either I'll
admit that Mr. Leno attacks all groups semi-equally, or you admit that
the sniveling little coward has somehow decided gays -- unlike every
other minority group -- are still fair game. (Well, your words can be
a *little* different.)
So, who's signing up? BTR1701? Captain Infinity? Gooserider? Put
your money where your mouth is or get written off as the blowhards you
are.
Will you fucking relax? It's just a joke.

Do you want gays to be whiney and overly sensitive like blacks or do
you want them to be godo natured and roll with the punches like asians?

Whatever, just as long as they don't issue death threats like Muslims.

Asians have been telling you round eyes to fuck off for a while now. Get your
head out of your ass and wipe the shit from your eyes.

Please do. It's been a rough week and I could use a laugh.

You realize that's a trick challenge -- finding ANY joke Leno has made will
likely prove impossible.

Jay Leno has a "SEX FETISH" pure and simple.


I live in a world all of my own,
but that is alright ,
because everyone knows me there.

Can a "SEX FETISH" really ever be 'pure and simple'?

Do you enjoy Jay Leno's gay routines?

I've got some "dumb Pollack", "rich Jew" and "lazy nigger" jokes that
will have you just howling with laughter then.

Oh -- I thought you meant defenders of him as a comedian, and I
was wondering if there really were any...
