The President's comment was, apparently, off-the-record. Obviously he still 
said it where reporters could hear, so it was a poor choice of words. Serena 
Williams, Kanye West, Joe Wilson seem to have impulse control problems, as 
do so many people in the world today. The worst part, to me, is that a lot 
of people seem to think it's OK, or even good, to be rude. I wonder if the 
attention they are getting will only encourage more of the bad 
behavior....from what I read,  this isn't the first time Kanye West has done 
some  rude thing, and it only gets him more publicity.

Absolutely.
