I hope that the next time it happens, they will be more outspoken. --Bob

Hope in one hand and crap in the other and see which one fills up first.

Bless your hearts. I'm still waiting for someone to show me video of any 'main-stream,' regularly appearing entertainer alluding to any previous presidential daughter giving her father head.

"father" not "father's"
Grammar matters.

Bless your hearts. I'm still waiting for someone to show me video of any 'main-stream,' regularly appearing entertainer alluding to any previous presidential daughter giving her father head.

Admittedly, it's tough to find a lot of right wing entertainers saying ugly things about Democratic politicians because Scott Baio is about the biggest name the right has out there.

But, we can always count on Ted Nugent for thoughtful, tasteful analysis:

Obama, he's a piece of shit. I told him to suck on my machine gun. Hey Hillary [Clinton], you might want to ride one of these into the sunset, you worthless bitch.

or during Obama's 2012 campaign:

If Barack Obama becomes the next president in November, again, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year.

to which Donald Trump replied in a tweet:

Ted Nugent was obviously using a figure of speech, unfortunate as it was. It just goes to show the anger people have towards Barack Obama.

or

If your child is dying and there’s only one way to get to the doctor, would you get on Harry Reid’s boat to get there? Then your child’s dead. I’d get on the boat, I’d get there and then I’d shoot him.

Sean Spicer was asked why no Republicans had ever condemned Nugent's remarks, and, quite naturally, Spicer couldn't answer.

Well, perhaps, like me, they never heard of these quotes from Ted Nugent. I guess Ted Nugent is like.... I can't remember his name because it's not an election year. The KKK jerk from Louisiana.... ah David Duke. He is only relevant to illustrate an irrelevant point.

I seem to remember some Republican politician not too long ago talking about "Second Amendment solutions" to Secretary Clinton's candidacy. I don't recall much outrage expressed on the right. --Bob

In case you missed it, much of the right was adamantly opposed to Trump's nomination, including me. They joined in the left's chorus against him. I have never mistaken him for an orator. He's a jerk and he gets himself into trouble with his mouth. I hereby condemn this 'Second Amendment Solution' comment, and many other things he said during the campaign, as did much of the right, but not enough of us. Unfortunately, he is our President. I will support him when I think he's right, and oppose him when I think he's wrong. But I'm not gonna be a baby about it and criticize any and everything he says and does and sabotage his administration.

I think he's wrong to pull out of the Paris Agreement. I think he should have treated it as a treaty, like Obama should have done, and send it to the Senate. By doing what he's done, he shows he has as much disrespect for the Constitution as Obama did.

Obviously, Kathy Griffin doesn't know when to let things drop.

The Republicans are already running ads here in Georgia trying to tie Griffin to Jon Ossoff (who has for months been called a Pelosi/Sanders stooge), calling her an Ossoff supporter. Her "support" consists of retweeting one tweet from Alyssa Milano two months ago in support of Ossoff, but the Republicans are making a big deal of the fact that Ossoff didn't immediately issue a public statement condemning her. (FYI, some Democrats have retaliated by bringing up Handel's support by Greg Gianforte and asking her to return the money Gianforte donated to her campaign.)

Griffin is doing the Democratic Party far more harm than good. Unfortunately, she is so self-centered and stuck on keeping what tiny bit of celebrity status she has that it won't do any good. This has never been about any grievances she has with Trump; it's all about self-promotion, especially this latest press conference. That's the "true motivation" behind the image.

[silverscreenselect]

A follow-up:

The Griffin anti-Ossoff ad shows her bloody Trump image onscreen for about ten seconds. Ossoff's reply:

Jon Ossoff believes what Kathy Griffin did was despicable and for Karen Handel's super PAC to say otherwise is a disgrace. Karen Handel should immediately demand this ad be pulled before any more children have to see these disturbing images on TV.

Their first debate is Tuesday night; it should be entertaining.

Well said.

Kathy Griffin's "press conference" was, as expected, a joke in which she tried to paint herself as unfairly persecuted by the Trumps and said they've messed with the "wrong redhead." For the record, here is Trump's tweet in response to her video:

Kathy Griffin should be ashamed of herself. My children, especially my 11-year-old son, Barron, are having a hard time with this. Sick!

Far be it from me to defend Trump in anything, but this seems to be a very measured response on his part. I'm hoping he's just going to let this whole thing go and let Griffin run out of hot air (and headlines), which should take about two or three days, and then descend back into the world of opening acts at fourth rate comedy clubs where she belongs.

That's the main problem. The dem minions (including the MSM) are so totally unobjective in their evaluation of Trump. Keep going. It will marginalize your party even more than it is now.

[Estonut]

I've noticed that since yesterday, or so, they have been referring to the object in the picture as a "mask." The picture was clearly intended to represent his head, not a mask. KG trying to be subtle, but she doesn't have it in her.

And how objective have Republicans been in their evaluation of Obama and Hillary?

I guess she's moving down to the F List now.

She might be on your F List...

Bye, bye.... what's your name again????? Look at it this way. Instead of watching the ball drop on New Years Eve, you'll be watching the fries drop at McDonald's. Either way, you'll be getting a paycheck for not doing any real work.


BTW.... I think Samantha should Bee the next to get canned

If Kathy Griffin had really wanted to shock people, she should have tried being funny.

She can't. That requires talent.

More likely that Bill Maher will be axed ... again. He was interviewing Senator Sasse, who invited him to visit Nebraska. He said Bill could try working in the fields. Bill replied that he was a house ◼︎◼︎◼︎◼︎◼︎◼︎ (live on HBO).
