Another free-speech debate is raging, this time over a Tonight Show joke that the Golden Temple is Mitt Romney’s summer home.

Other countries don't think of it as we do in the matter of free speech.

So? And you think our comedians are the only ones who make satirical remarks about people in other countries, all sorts of religions, all manner of political topics. Have you ever been out of the country, living among folks in other countries? You think this kind of banter is unique in our country and therefore we have to be careful what we say. Bullsh*t. I've heard some of the most cutting and clever sarcasm from the French and Germans in Europe, including my own friends there. If this really bothers you, you need to get real.
