Two families moved from Afghanistan to America . When
they arrived, the two fathers made a $1,000 bet -- in a year's
time whichever family had become more "Americanized"
would win.
A year later they met. The first man said, "My son is
playing baseball, I had McDonald's for breakfast and
I'm on my way to pick up a case of Bud, how about
you?"
The second man replied, "F*ck you, towel head."

I was at my bank today; there was a short line. Just one lady in front of me, an Asian lady who was trying to exchange yen for dollars. It was obvious she was a little irritated.
She asked the teller, 'Why it change? Yesterday, I get two hunat dolla for 1000 yen. Today I only get hunat eighty? Why it change?'
The teller shrugged his shoulders and said, "Fluctuations."
The Asian lady says, "Fluc you white people too."

I don't mind Mel. As I say all the time, comedy is a risk. The funniest part of this joke to me is that it is poking fun at stereotypically xenophobic Americans, not immigrants. From that standpoint, the only ones offended by this joke should be biggots with a US passport. I'll always jump at the opportunity to offend the intolerant. Although, as pjinca said, it's just a joke.
that said... Comedy is a risk. the best jokes are the ones that are right on the cusp. In my opinion if I am sitting at a table with 8 friends and tell a joke... six laugh and two get offended, the joke was a success!
