Jokes can say a lot about a society besides what it finds funny. It can say what it takes for granted. What is on everyone's minds. I wonder what it says about me that I don't touch local TV with a ten foot poll. It can say what is not sacred. They can talk about current issues. Like below.
The press' fondness for Barack and taking the German's taste with a grain of salt.

There was a huge reception for Obama in the Middle East this weekend.
People were screaming, chasing him , hanging on his every word. That
was just the U.S. press corps. (Jay Leno)
They really love Obama in Germany. He is like a rock star over there.
It's impressive till you realize David Hasselhoff is also like a
rockstar over there.
