A joke too bad to print?

A friend sent me an email about a joke that John McCain made back in 1998 that I had never heard before. Since I always take email forwards with a grain of salt, I decided to do some Googling and discovered it was true. It certainly makes me question his judgement and character, even though the joke was made 10 years ago. I found this Salon article with the joke:

A joke too bad to print?
HOW SEN. JOHN McCAIN'S TASTELESS TWO-LINER ABOUT CHELSEA CLINTON AND JANET RENO WAS CENSORED OUT OF THE NATION'S LEADING NEWSPAPERS.

Insane. That joke is even worse than Shuster's pimping comment, imo. I have now found a couple of instances where I don't get McCain's humor. Peppy, you bring this article to light, and just last night, McCain was talking to Dana Bash from CNN in a story for the "Situation Room" and called her a jerk (with a smile on his face, of course). But still. It just doesn't seem right.
