Kathy Griffin blasts Bush and company.


http://www.mrc.org/cyberalerts/2005/cyb20050912.asp#3



"The President is a moron! I'm saying it. I don't care. He's an idiot. Cheney is evil. I'm sick of, impeach them, get them out! I hate them! I hate them. Get them out. They got to go!"

She later pleaded: "What is it going to take for you people? Get Bush out! Impeach! Out! Out! Out!" Griffin also denounced FNC's Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity: "He and Hannity can suck it. I hate those two idiots! Those liars."

Griffin is the star of the reality show, Kathy Griffin: My Life on the d-List on NBC-Universal's Bravo cable channel, a regular on the E! channel's "red carpet" coverage before awards ceremonies, has had roles in several movies, as well as appearing on such TV shows as NBC's Suddenly Susan sit-com and currently on HBO's Curb Your Enthusiasm.


Note the website is supposedly "evidence" of liberal bias, but I intend to use it to support people who tell the truth. :)

Upcoming TV appearances from Kathy listed HERE:

I caught her new stand up act on BRAVO recently, and it's very funny.

21. Recommended. a call for impeachment from La Griffin warrants it!
She's doing Hillary Clinton's job!

Besides, some people will be irked enough by this thread appearing on the greatest page that it will be something of a tribute to Kathy Griffin. :-)

3. I love her too, and she's traveled to the mid-east to perform for the
troops. I haven't heard of Dennis Miller doing such a thing, you?

5. In fact until I read your post
I hadn't even thought about Dennis Miller for a year or so. Guess that kissing bush's ass thing didn't work out too well for him, huh?

37. Not really. He's got one gig coming up though. Not much to crow about.
November 26, 2005 -- COMEDIAN Dennis Miller, absent from the airwaves since his CNBC show was cancelled earlier this year, is returning to the small screen.

The one-time "Saturday Night Live" regular and "Monday Night Football" commentator will host the 11th annual Critics' Choice Awards Monday, Jan. 9 on The WB.

23. Dennis Miller donates to the USO, but I can't find anything
about an ME tour, and frankly, the five minutes I've already spent searching for the info is a fucking waste of time, but maybe. Maybe Dennis went.

Personally, I think the USO might have told Dennis "You're just gonna confuse everyone if you show up in Basra, so why not just serve sweet rolls at USO Encino?

36. Nope...Dennis only gets as far as visiting Walter Reed Hospital
in connection with the USO.

Al Franken's been to both Iraq and Afghanistan. :)

40. It's the least Denny can do since his paid support of big fat liars
helped to get our troops there in the first place.

Please forgive me for this cheap and low shot at Miller for not being cheaper and lower.

4. Kathy rocks!
I've seen her stand-up. It's unique. (Maybe with a hat's off to Rodney Dangerfield.)

13. I was playing off the D-list shtick.
Edited on Sat Dec-10-05 06:43 PM by IMModerate
It's a play on "I don't get no respect." Kathy is quick, but Rodney was no slouch. BTW, Rodney was a perpetual pot smoker.

20. That girl always makes me laugh. And she says the most awful things.
Edited on Sat Dec-10-05 08:02 PM by Kurovski
I remember when I first saw her on the Mo show, or some other talk show with a panel for people whose friends say they are "too" much of something.

It was before she was "known".

She was on as a person who is always making jokes and her friends were "SICK OF IT!!"

I just had to wonder "who the fuck could get sick of this?"

She would be asked " Aren't you concerned that this is affecting your relationships?" And then make some outrageously insouciant crack. It was memorable enough that I remembered it was her a year or so later as her incontrovertibly fabulous star ascended the galaxies.

It's just one of those things for me...she could read the phone book and it would make me laugh.

I hope it garners her yet more fans.

Edit: I see that some of "her gays" have come out in support! Good for all of us!

22. I was confused as to her political persuasion the other evening
as she talked so much about her trip to the Middle East and such. I recalled some website who claimed she was a Republican and was pleased to find out they were wrong.

I thought, no way can someone so "smart/witty and intelligent" be a Republican. ;)

24. Even if she were a nut-job right-winger, I'd still have to laugh.
Edited on Sat Dec-10-05 08:30 PM by Kurovski
But of course God's intelligent design makes such things impossible ;-)

Edit: Did'ja recommend the thread? Did'ja?

26. I can recommend it for you though
I watched the recent marathon of her D-List show a few weeks ago (on Thanksgiving Day, I think) and found it quite funny.

27. Caught her on Bravo too, and she's a scream. Brutal but funny.
I would not want to be one of her targets.

32. She has a strange sort of kindness about it all though...
sort of like a warrior's pity for the victim of her sword.

34. She said "I don't care" I guess that must be directed in part
Edited on Sat Dec-10-05 09:36 PM by Kurovski
to her folks.

Uh-oh, a second rebellious stage for the folks to contend with...

Will they ground her? Make her wear a K-mart dress to the prom? It could be anything! They are vicious people! You've seen them on that show, you know how they are!
