Can We Lighten Up A Little?

I finally got to see the entire George and Laura comedy skit that took place recently. Until today, I had only seen sound bites and heard conservative reaction to it (or should I say backlash?).

To my conservative friends I say, lighten up. It was funny.

Behind every public person is a human being and from what I saw, they were just being human and letting off a little steam. Very few of us understand what kind of immense pressure a president (as well as other high profile jobs) is under. It's easy to sit back on our judgement seats and criticize something as benign this, while overlooking things much more important than this.
