I have about as much respect for Kathy Griffin as I do Ann Coulter. Both of them are disgusting and I wouldn't pay a dime to see either one of them live and I change the channel if I see them on TV. They both say what they say to outrage people. So why start threads about them and give them what they want?---their names plastered everywhere.

I don't see what difference being a Liberal, Conservative, Communist or Fascist should have on how you view this. It's a matter of ethics and morals. It's got b*ll*cks all to do with politics and it's as small minded for someone to try and make anything political out of it as it is to have said it.

Congratulations.

Are You Liberals Okay With This? Kathy Griffin Calls 17 Yr Old Willow Palin A 'Dirty Wh*re' And Porn Star In The Making

Willow is 18, an adult.

Were you this offended when Limbaugh called another woman a prostitute and s.l.ut

I said that Griffin comments are trashy and low brow, just as the Palin's kid(s) comments. They call each other the 4 letter word and laugh at it, yet when someone else does it it's offensive?

Save your faux outrage, I'm not buying it
So let me understand, they call each other something privately, or so you imagine, or so some liberal puts has blogged to further deride them, and publicly this classless washed up wanna be goes on national television and calls a 17 year old young woman what any woman would find offensive even a prostitute, and in your liberal brain you somehow draw an analogy. Yes indeed you are the picture poster of a liberal, congratulations you passed the test!

Is this another example of the "new civility" Obama spoke about?

#1, it wasn't in private it was no national television

#2, she isn't 17, she's 18, an adult

When a woman complains I need to buy her enough rubbers to have sex 24/7, yes, I might draw some definitive observations about that. That would seem to support the definition, yes! I don't see the analogy. One is based on hatred the other on analysis of what the young and stupid demorat operative was reporting about herself. Who would not make that objective analysis. Unless of couse that is the norm for democrat women?

Kathy Griffin calling Willow ***** = bad

Limbaugh calling college student ***** = good

Not buying your hypocrisy or faux outrage.

The OP has a very selective sense of outrage. He also started a thread praising a billboard that compares President Obama to the Aurora theater killer, with these words:

Free speech for me, but not for thee...

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.

That's the difference between the right and the left.

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

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