It was you that said that hank williams comment about golf was a "poorly" worded statement and that it was fine that he got canned for it. It was not a comparison, it was an allegorical statement - on demonstrating the ludicrous nature of the action.
Kinda like what your saying went on here. Course - the "republican" guy was perfectly fine being fired - here its just all in good fun - because it makes fun of the "right" side. Even it is much more about the people, not their positions.
Double standard much?
To answer your question as to what is more offensive - if you have a problem with mentally deficient people being killed, then making light of the fact they do merely demeans your cause. So you decide for yourself.

When I was in college, we all watched WWF wrestling. We all knew it was fake, but it was good for a cheesy soap opera that catered to what college kids love - crude humor and T&A. I'd say Cohaagen nailed the WWF experience there. His post was hilarious if you've ever watched even one episode. It was nothing worse than what you see on Saturday Night Live. Let me guess, you fired off angry letters when Keenan Thompson did his "Pizza will come" impersonation of Herman Cain and chastised NBC for not taking him ultra super serious all the time.
Double standard? Heck, I'm waiting for his take on a Democrat WWF. That'd be some funny, funny stuff.
If you're that easily offended, it may be time to go outside for a walk or something.
