From the Proud Democrat Obstructionist Department On Kathy Griffin
We’re all slavering and pantie-wetting over Kathy Griffin’s video shoot. Phrases like, “disgusting,” “contemptible,” and even “dumb” are being bandied about. Calls for her to be fired by CNN have been voiced, and Anderson Cooper has issued a statement.
And not just by Trumpophiles. All the “Snowflakes” are also all up on their hind legs. It took Trump 3 days to issue his statement against White Nationalists stabbing heroes for defending teenage girls, but Anderson Cooper is Johnny-on-the-spot decrying Griffin. Trump himself, FUCKING TWEETED that Baron’s fragile mental state is being endangered by this cruel and irresponsible video – but not until after spending 8-full-hours defending “covfefe.”
Meanwhile, MSNBC’s top story is about a nuclear missile we’ve test-launched. North Korea would be so proud of its new protege country.
But, I remember photos of Obama being lynched by teabaggers. I remember bumper stickers calling Hillary a cunt. I remember 8-years of racist “Birtherism.” I remember Obama’s beautiful daughters being called “Kizzie” and “Pickaninny.” I remember Michelle being called “an ape in heels.” I wonder how Malia and Sasha’s mental state is doing. How “over the line,” was it to spend 8-years spewing vile and hateful insults to those girls?
Nothing that happens to Trump is undeserved. Nothing is unfair, and NOTHING is over the line. You wanna steal a dictatorship and turn a once great nation into a Banana Republic? You get the Kathy Griffins.
I don’t reject Kathy Griffin’s video. I reject her apology.

[…] Kathy by comparing her offensive little skit with the years of tasteless, racist, brutal portrayals of the Obama family. […]
Don’t forget some direct threats by Ted Nugent on more than one occasion and these are more egregious and probably illegal than a plastic head. He and Michelle have been hanged, burned and cut to pieces in churchyards all over this country and yet, these snowflakes are shocked – just SHOCKED to see such disrespect. I’ve had enough of calling to lock them up. STRING THEM UP!
I totally agree with you, Michael! Apparently, 80%+ of Canadians can’t stand Trump. Worldwide it’s probably as much. I’ve seen cartoons etc. of Obama and his family in which they are totally insulted and I would cringe. I think we know which one was the favorite. Kathy may have gone a bit too far, but Trump more than deserves this type of insult. American politics affects a lot of Canadians and we’re not afraid to comment. EH? Think I’ll go give my two cats a Temptations treat.
Back from vacay, huh?
Me? No vacation for me. Too many dogs 🙂 Oh. Before I forget: Go Kathy!
While I reject any notion of violence being bandied about in reference to anyone, much less a president of this country, it is difficult to deny the irony of his supporters being upset after the last eight years of listening to the hate that was directed at the last president by the same ones that are whining now. However, one must consider the source. The people of the far right, the Tea Party, and the Republican party generally are reminders of bullies everywhere that are happy to cast stones and dispersion at anyone cannot handle it when it is coming at them.
