She is, after-all a shock comic. That's her entire schtick and it always has been. You either like it or not but she's always done and said outrageous things. For the radical right to be so offended is absurd nonsense after the 8 years of overt racism and hatred thrown at President Obama and the FLOTUS. I only wish she hadn't apologized and I sent CNN (which I gave up watching a long time ago) an email telling them of my anger at them for being spineless weasels. Of course, this is the same network that hired Corey Lewandowski so I don't really expect much from them, anyway. anymousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08440984998024847906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-54976223052106639002017-06-01T19:25:46.916-04:002017-06-01T19:25:46.916-04:00Sorry it was that damn spell correct , that ( spel...Sorry it was that damn spell correct , that ( spelled incorrectly ).

Don't they know the "internets" are full of hundreds and hundreds of links to Nugent and his death threats to Obama and Clinton? Why are the wingnuts surprised that this happens? They didn't see anything wrong with it when Nugent and other wingnuts did it to Obama? Now they're upset? <br /><br />This is from blogger Oliver Willis:<br /><br /><b>"Griffin was condemned by liberals, CNN hosts, and most people with a pulse. In this instance, the system worked, and Griffin had an ad campaign featuring her pulled and later issued a public apology.<br /><br />This all happened within hours, and it exposes a problem – on the right.<br /><br />Unlike Griffin, musician turned right-wing pundit (and racist) Ted Nugent was explicit in calling for both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton to be murdered, and he has made similar calls to violence on multiple occasions.<br /><br />In response to these comments, Nugent has not suffered a loss of income or status on the right. He remains a board member of the NRA, a political pundit who appears in campaign ads for Republican candidates, and he was invited to the Oval Office by Donald Trump along with Kid Rock and Sarah Palin.<br /><br />The conservative sphere has no standards for decency and behavior, and it rewards figures like Nugent for making threats of physical harm against people like Obama and Clinton.<br /><br />Griffin was wrong, and she heard about it immediately with great fury and velocity. The left and the center have a sense of morality. The right does not.<br /><br />This is how we got Trump, and that is why the right cannot stand on a moral high horse no matter how hard they try."</b>Shaw Kenawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637273000409613497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-63034678877389161142017-06-01T07:13:03.978-04:002017-06-01T07:13:03.978-04:00Suffice to say those people you refer to are hugel...Suffice to say those people you refer to are <b>hugely</b> suffering from HYPOCRISY.Les Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01120280762698472496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-64490472939512854362017-06-01T05:31:14.021-04:002017-06-01T05:31:14.021-04:00RN USA, What the far righties did when Mr. Obama w...<br />RN USA, What the far righties did when Mr. Obama was president does not excuse what Griffin did.
