Thanks to thousands upon thousands of people outraged last year over a joke apparently “at China’s expense” during a segment on Jimmy Kimmel Live, The White House had to take the time to not deal with more pressing matters and say that they can’t cancel Jimmy Kimmel Live because of the right to free speech.

Good job all of you outraged enough at an joke that hinges on its high level of absurdity to ignore the problems with healthcare, social security, etc. etc. on not knowing the U.S. government doesn’t have the time or could care less about shutting down something like Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Oh, in case you couldn’t figure it out in the previous sentence because you were a person that signed that petition, we were being sarcastic.
