Damn, I have said “please shoot me” a dozen times and never made the news.

Seriously, taking a saying like that literally is much more stupid than making the dumb remark.

I differ, in that I find such goofy remarks from supposed 'leaders' endlessly amusing.

Who said it would be newsworthy? The freak show that is our current presidential primary isn't newsworthy either. :wink:

MSN said it was newsworthy, with its huge headline.

They're just as sensationalist as Fox News. I only watch for the entertainment value. :lol:
