Ya know this forum recently discussed Warren Beatty's kid calling itself a 'faggy queen'. The liberals applauded. Kinda like blacks applaud when one of their hideous rap stars calls himself a n*****.

Talk about hypocricy.

Warren Beatty and Annette Bening's son Stephen speaks about being transgender | Mail Online

And then liberal morons all over the board say it's how the Palins are raising their kids and the kids are learning from them.

Really?

If you don't want crap like that repeated, shut your trap, stop whining and yelping, and accept responsibility.

Why does anyone care about what Kathy Griffin said?

Am I wrong but a few decades ago a woman getting pregnant below the age of 17 would have been called a *****...yes? So now it is possible to be used for humor(even if it is bad taste) Seems she is better off today than she would have been 50 years ago.

History has had a variety of comedians trying material that was racy, or vulgar.... Richard Prior, Chris Tucker, Don Rickles from eons ago... Their goal is to make a laugh... question is... did they? if not it will be quickly not repeated.

SO the question comes if it is so objectionable why does the OP give it so much notice, what would have otherwise been forgotten an hour later?

I'm thinking the wound too tight comment is appropriate...

Griffin jokes that she is a D list celebrity.

Then again, the same people who cares what she says are the same ones who care what Nugent says.

Not buying your hypocrisy or faux outrage.

That said, I don't find Kathy Griffin the least bit funny and I don't condone it. I remember when Rush Limbaugh called 13 year-old Chelsea Clinton the White House dog, and how funny many on the right thought that was. Children of politicians should be off limits, even the ones who use profanity on their Facebook pages. Willow was raised in a family with no class, so she obviously doesn't know any better, but she should stay off her sister's reality show if she truly doesn't want the kind of attention that brings.

Many liberals/leftists have come out against Griffin's comments.

Try to find a right winger who will condemn Limbaugh's statement.
Well said!


But you used words over the four letter limit for Righties so they'll have a problem....and when their mom's explain it to them, they will deny Rushie's comments ever happened.

Willow is an adult. What do you think of Limbaugh calling a college student a prostitute?

I'm not reading the replies. I saw this yesterday and it bothered me then but I let it go. Now both side do this but why seperate people?

Why not ask "are people O.K. with........."

IMO it's things like this that makes people less willing to read or consider viewpoints.

You are wrong. A couple of decades ago, one of those was a woman who got paid. Even now, the first definition in the dictionary is:

noun
1. a woman who engages in promiscuous sexual intercourse, usually for money; prostitute; harlot; strumpet.


The young woman who got pregnant in those days was an unwed mother, or worst case scenario, a s**t.
