She apologized - Kathy Griffin Discussion

[–] Daggerboard (581) 7 years ago

She should have apologized to Trump and his family. That aside, Griffin has a sick sense of humor and this fits with her shtick. Her "apology" was probably just due to fear of losing work.

[–] DiggoryVenn (89) 7 years ago

Having never once found her funny or understood her success, I'm at an even greater loss to understand how such an ambition-driven no-talent could have imagined this stunt would ingratiate her with whoever exactly her fan-base is--or with Gloria Vanderbilt.

[–] therefdotcom (964) 7 years ago

the content of her material is debatable, but her delivery is good and her technique is also quite good.

as for "ambition-driven no-talent", that seems to qualify one even for the position of president nowadays, sooooo...

Exactly. And like it or not, there *is* a real eleven-year-old kid's feelings to consider. I stopped watching "In Living Color" when the lovely Wayans clan went after Chelsea Clinton mercilessly. Kids on the verge of adolescence are particularly sensitive, and I wouldn't be surprised at all if this "joke" sends the president's youngest son into protracted therapy.

Career-shattering choice by a B-list social climber, pain for a little boy-- Wow. Everyone comes out a winner.

She doesn't need to be sorry. I feel sorry for her. Who is she surrounded by that actually thought or found that funny, provocative, or whatever? What kind of bubble does that poor woman live in?

That's because conservatives are smart enough not to get themselves in a position like this. They know damn well the media uproar that would have ensued if they were carrying Barack Obama's head like they were part of ISIS. She's not sorry she posted the photo, she's sorry that she got attacked for it. You're telling me if people were congratulating her for it that she wouldn't have gone bigger in the next shoot? She clearly doesn't think it's wrong, the people do. And now she's trying to save her career.

When was the last time you saw conservatives rioting on their streets because they were upset? When's the last time they organized anarchist cults to destroy public and private property? When's the last time you saw conservatives chanting down the streets calling to the murder and execution of cops? When's the last time you saw a Trump supporter physically assault a Hillary supporter? When's the last time you saw conservatives defending Muslim terror attacks? When's the last time you saw conservatives defend Muslim rape gangs? When's the last time you saw conservatives saying we couldn't enjoy other cultures for fear of "cultural appropriation"? When's the last time you saw conservatives try to silence the free speech of people they disagreed with?

Yes. They are so great. Not because they're doing anything particularly great, but by simply not being liberal, they're already a step ahead in human decency. Something happened to liberals from the 90's to now and I'm not sure what it was, but they have completely rejected all the values they once claimed to cherish. We see this all the time now. If a conservative makes a move, it's bad. If a liberal makes the same move it's good. It makes perfect sense to remember Hitler as the evil genocidal maniac he was, but liberals seem to have no problem glorifying communist Marxist tyrants like Fidel Castro and Che Guevera. Because they're the "good brand" of evil. Murder and genocide is only acceptable when it's the "good" brand of murder and genocide. Because everyone that isn't liberal is by default an evil racist bigot Nazi. This is the war cry of the modern left. The cognitive dissonance makes me sick.

They riot. They call them "alt-right" rallies (neo-Nazi, for the layman). They also murder black people and Muslims just for being black or Muslim or those who dare to defend them. Watch the news once in a while.

And stop with the holier than thou attitude. You are a horrible person, as evidenced by your tone deaf post.

BTW, you are guilty of labeling all "liberals" as people who riot or who want to kill cops. So effing stupid. What a dirty hypocrite you are. Now kindly go rot.

She destroyed the finances of retired people who invested in her Whitewater boondoggle. She destroyed the lives of the women that her horn dog "husband" boinked.

Quality? I would be lying to agree that she is "quality" in any way, shape or form. She and Bill are perfect examples of white trash with money.

To call out someone as a liar is not a "disagreement". It is just speaking to the truth. Of course if one is a Clinton fan, the truth is a foreign concept.

I am NOT "programmed", but I'd say you are if you put your "faith" in "Holy Mother" Hillary.(a false goddess if there ever was one)

Just FYI, my religious beliefs and belief in the Ten Commandments were formed in childhood. Self serving criminals always raised my religious antennae. If it's "superstitious" to distrust a self serving sociopath like that broom rider, well guilty here!

Was the video of Mrs. Clinton being greeted with bouquets of flowers in Bosnia "right wing propaganda"? Duh. CAN you actually BE that stupid or brainwashed? It is scary. Please stop voting until you have the MRI that bwbphile suggested. LOL

I actually SAW and heard her on the news when confronted with that lie of "sniper fire"!!!! Her excuse (what else does she HAVE, except a basket of excuses?) was that she had jet lag and "misspoke". Ha ha, like "jet lag" causes most people to lie.

I used to be a flight attendant and I and other crew members would be jet lagged from flying back and forth to Europe several times a month. That is, actually WORKING on a flight and not sitting with my fat a##ed pantsuit in a seat being waited on by the peons. None of US had a problem with the truth, even though jetlagged and tired.

[–] Cheepshooter (672) 7 years ago

Warrant free wiretapping, indefinite detention, expanded government secrecy. Basically every executive order by every President in my lifetime. Those aren't "by the letter" violations, but they surely violate the spirit of the free society embodied by the Constitution. The Constitution was written as a framework to limit the over-reaches of government tyranny, and enumerate specific freedoms which could not be trampled (by the government). Any powers not specifically granted to the government were assumed to be prohibited. However, due to a misuse of the "necessary and proper" clause, every administration has used the "power of the pen" to extend the reach of the executive arm. The current administration is no different. To conclude everything was peachy under the previous administration is just delusional.

[–] Cheepshooter (672) 7 years ago

"Where, exactly, did I conclude everything was peachy? Reading comp problem?"

I never said you concluded that. I am saying that conclusion is (in my opinion) incorrect. A previous poster said many people were quite happy with the previous 8 years. That would imply they thought it was peachy. I have no way of knowing whether you felt that way or not.

"That's a pretty far cry from 'who regularly used the constitution as toilet paper.'"

The toilet paper comment may have been hyperbole, but I feel purposely violating the spirit of the institution is very much akin to disregarding it as an outdated relic good for nothing other than waste disposal. GW once called it "just a GD piece of paper." Your feelings may differ.

[–] napsdufroid (2077) 7 years ago

People being quite happy with it and considering it "peachy" are really 2 different things. Compared to the ignoramus in office now, I'd venture to say many were quite happy with dubya, too, though they certainly wouldn't call his administration peachy..

reply

[–] Cheepshooter (672) 7 years ago

I guess happiness can be viewed retrospectively as a comparative quality. Often, when I think something is peachy, I'm happy about it. When I'm happy about something, I think its peachy. Semantics maybe. I don't really even use that word to describe stuff. I snarfed that from my Mom's lexicon, I think.

Extremism in any form, be it religion, conservatism, liberalism, is a mental sickness.

Hillary had a long history of questionable ethics for financial gain going back to Arkansas days.

The professional politicians are at fault here. If, as a whole, they weren't so scummy, the people wouldn't have looked for an escape.

It seems like extremists on both sides are all that are promoted to high enough levels to run for President. I think that was Trump's appeal to many. He wasn't a senator, congressman, or governor. He was perceived as being "outside the machine." People were desperate to get out of that cycle so badly they voted for anyone not in that circle, however ill advisable.

Her liberal thinking got to her imo. She loved welcoming Muslims so much for their enrichment that she lost her sense of touch and mixed the beheading with an American instead. No surprise there.

Shut up, Rorikon. You are so annoying. Get some original thoughts for a change. Are you just living your life as a Rush "rail 24/7 against the boogeyman liberals" Limbaugh clone? What a sad existence. Go rot.

"boogeyman liberals" Yeah you're all a bunch of snot noses!

Saw Megyn Kelly (not a fan of hers though) give a speech in L.A. shortly after the election. She mentioned Trump.

Kathy Griffin was in the audience and gave her the finger and shouted out "@#@@# something or other". They had to bleep out what Ms. Pigmouth said. What a "classy" broad!

Ms. Kelly tried to be nice and just said ,"Oh come on!"

I WISHED I could have been Megyn Kelly for one minute just so I could have said, " I see we have Ms. Griffin here. Her idiotic screeching just explains the meaning of why she is on the D-List. That was obviously her highest grade in junior high, before she flunked out."

So? Trump grabs pussy and insulted his way to the presidency. What is your point?

reply

[–] [email protected] (5854) 7 years ago

My point is that Kathy Griffin is a foul mouthed moron! Okay? Or are you a "dum dum" too?

Is little loudmouth Miss Griffin in NO WAY responsible for the garbage that comes out of her pie hole? Is it OKAY that she gives the finger and swears at a person giving a speech?

If Rachel Madcow gave a speech about Obama and Ted Nugent yelled, " F##@ him!", would you be just as forgiving? I think not!

"Insulted his way to the Presidency"? Huh? You have quickly gone from silly commentary to incoherent babbling. Now BACK to your lemonade stand!

So you don't remember "Lyin' Ted" "Low energy Jeb" "Crooked Hillary" or all the times Trump called people stupid. He quite literally insulted his way into office. Wow, you really are living in an alternate reality.

poor kewl kat-- Is business slow at the stand?? Run out of lemons? Your posts always sound like you've been sucking on one! Alternate reality?? No just actual reality. I DO NOT deny what Trump said, but neither am I RESPONSIBLE for what comes out of his mouth. DUh!

"Crooked Hillary"? Well that's so obvious it hardly needs to be said!

I had no real desire to further the Bush dynasty by voting for Jeb Bush. Neither did millions of other voters. But if he had been my only other recourse to "Crooked Hillary", I would've been pulling that lever, you betcha (channeling Sarah Palin here).

I didn't vote for Trump because he "insulted his way into office". Jeez. I CAN think for myself, even if you can't. LOL

Trump called people "stupid"? Well aren't a lot of people stupid? I only have to tune in to Rachel Maddow or Chris Matthews to see that first hand!! Thank the Lord it aint a crime or we'd have to lock up the DNC and a large number of Republicans too. Maxine Waters would be doing a life sentence, lololol.

I suppose Trump's calling other pols "stupid" is waaay worse than Hitlary calling half the citizens of this country a "basket of deplorables". What a dumb arrogant piece of crap. A candidate is supposed to insult his opponent, NOT the people who he wants to vote for him! No wonder that lying sociopath lost! There's not one insult Trump leveled at her that wasn't deserved OR that I hadn't thought of years ago!

Well as long as there are voters like you, the Mrs. Clintons of this world stand a chance.

It's been a kinda slow week. Anyhow, Hillary only called 50% of you "deplorable". I think it's way higher than that so actually she was being kind.

[–] Cheepshooter (672) 7 years ago

I feel Hillary propped Trump up thinking it would be an easier victory than against a more opponent. People distrusted her so much that it backfired. I think people old enough to remember the first Clinton presidency and what a crooked farce it was made the difference. I know a lot of people that would have voted for anyone other those two, but in the end we're forced to go with what perceived to be the lesser of two evils. I think time will show were right to do so.
