However yesterday when I returned from the movies I discovered that my furnace was broken, and $247.00 later I just was not in the mood for comedy.
So I watched it all the way through this morning, and it was actually not bad.
Not all of the jokes landed, but then they never do.
Also if you dislike Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Michelle Wolf is your spirit animal.
Besides this performance pissed the conservatives off BIG TIME, which to me is really the only endorsement this performance needs.
P.S. I may be biased but in my opinion the very best WHCD comedian of all time remains this guy.Fox News' Ed Henry: WHCA Owes Apology to Sarah Sanders for 'Disgusting' Jokes https://t.co/FMzYgqmIKX (VIDEO) pic.twitter.com/j9nHSZRsp1— Mediaite (@Mediaite) April 29, 2018
Update: This might have been Wolf's most cutting remark of the night. (And the most truthful.)
Perhaps this is why so many so-called "liberal" journalists are piling on the comedian along with the usual conservative snowflakes.The last thing I'll say is that Michelle Wolf's bit about the media was objectively true—I include myself here and it sucks to have to reckon with that every day but the least we could do is not turn around and become apologists for a regime that wants to ruin people's lives pic.twitter.com/d6v70SxHTN— Ashley Feinberg (@ashleyfeinberg) April 29, 2018

ReplyDeleteMs Wolfe said nothing more than what Trump has been saying the past three years.
ReplyDeleteRight on, right on, right on 8:40 AM!
DeleteThe Republicans that were in attendance (especially at the head table of the din-din) just haven't been subjected to the same treatment they've been giving America for the past recent years.
It was about time they heard it and especially Huckabee Sanders. The woman has spewed hate and evilness for a long time and she deserved every comment that was made by the comedian - and, so did the 'con' way!
Can't take a joke? Too bad!!!
Trump is a joke with a thousand different punchlines.
DeleteShe is more orange than the Donald too....
DeleteShe was funny. To her those things were funny. I laughed here and there because I am still playing nice. I thought, here Sarah and KellyAnne show up and she blast them. How rude. But Donald does worst.
ReplyDeleteDonald has been roasting people for two years now and no one said boo.
That's our country now. The leader sets the precedent. Michelle Obama said when they go low, we go high.
That didn't work. Now we down and dirty in the mud with the Donald, just where he's comfortable. Butthurt don't work in the Donald world so those that were butthurt better put on some preparation H on that thing and move on cuz Donnie's about to unleash his barrage of butthurt words on twitter.

Yes, Obama "killed" it and perhaps (because of Trump's revenge election ... the whole GD Republican party as well.
ReplyDeleteGryph's mic drop GIF of President Obama yesterday. Perfect. There will never be another like him.
DeleteTrump is so envious of President Obama! There is just no way he'll ever be respected or liked throughout the country and world as is President Obama. History isn't going to be kind to the idiot currently sitting in the white house either.
DeleteSo let me get this straight. What is said depends on who's saying it. Amirite?
ReplyDeleteA couple of days after the Fox and Friends debacle, they're appalled and apologies are needed? Utter BULLSHIT.
Even 'someone' got to the third lady and said, "you know, an anti-bullying campaign might not be a wise one when your husband is the biggest one on the planet."
President after president have sat through the WHCD and taken what was dished out, but oh NO, NEVER "The Donald." He's such a POS. A testament to his character.
DeleteThe jerk has no 'character'! Never has had - just look at his history (in business) and FACTS!

I so wish Tester would come out and tell Trump HE has more poop and scoop on the Donald!
DeleteAnd, I hope the Montana folks reelect Tester. He DESERVES to be in Congress because he is finally someone that stood up to the white house jerk. More in Congress need to start doing it and the majority of Americans would be behind them! Voting coming soon in 2018 and 2020. Down
w/the Republicans and the reelection of you know who (hard to even say his name!)
Where are the Comey tapes?
DeleteTrump always says he knows stuff, but he never actually says anything. Proof positive that Trump doesn't know squat about anything. But he sure knows how to whip a crowd into a frenzy. You know who else had a talent for doing that? Adolf Hitler. There I said it. HITLER!

Police Guard White Nationalist Conference At Tennessee State Park From Protesters
ReplyDeletePolice formed a tight perimeter around a Tennessee state-owned hotel Saturday, guarding a white nationalist conference inside the building from anti-racist protesters gathered outside.
American Renaissance, a racist Virginia-based organization listed by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a hate group, reserved the 125 rooms inside Montgomery Bell State Park Inn for the weekend conference. Attendees not staying at the hotel arrived there early Saturday morning. Nearly all of them were men. They wore suit and ties — mandatory dress for the event — and didn’t respond to reporters’ questions as police escorted them inside.
...“It’s anti-racist activists that the state sees as the enemies,” she told reporters. “Not the Nazis or the white supremacists who are in our buildings, using our public restrooms, and eating in our public restaurant, plotting genocide.”
...At the American Renaissance conference Saturday, the 60 or so anti-racist protesters — from groups including Nashville AntiFa, Anti-Racist Action Nashville, the Tennessee Anti-Racist Network, Women’s March Tennessee and Shelbyville Loves — were kept about 100 yards away from the hotel behind a police barricade. Over 50 police officers stood guard outside the inn.
“Those are the most influential white supremacists in the world meeting at this rural location in Tennessee!” Lacy MacAuley, an anti-fascist activist from Washington, D.C., yelled at the cops. “You all are protecting absolute evil right now and you’re looking at us as if we’re the problem!”
...Previous American Renaissance conferences have attracted some of America’s most notorious white supremacists, including David Duke and Richard Spencer, who called for “peaceful ethnic cleansing” in the U.S. at a prior year’s event.

Trump Is Trying To Bribe House Republicans Not To Vote To Impeach Him
ReplyDeleteThe White House is working on a strategy where Trump would try to help key House Republicans win re-election in return for their voting against impeaching him.
https://www.politicususa.com/2018/04/29/trump-is-trying-to-bribe-house-republicans-not-to-vote-to-impeach-him.html
I'm not so sure that Trump will help Republicans be reelected. It'll be fun watching who actually 'use' him. Trump is NOT liked or respected throughout the country by the majority.
DeleteThey are going to lose many seats throughout the country and have zero clue supposedly? Kind of find that hard to believe.
Help them get re-elected? How? If they want to have any chance of re-election they need to distance themselves from him.
DeleteIs he going to help them by endorsing and standing behind their opponents?

Good. I would love nothing better than for The Bitch to be out on his ass after his brief stint in his "dream job". (Did anyone really believe that bullshit about from the age of a small boy his dream was to become Senate Majority Leader?)
DeleteI bet his really good health insurance paid for the neck circumcision referenced by Michelle.
DeleteI think she did one heck of a job in her presentation and the hype going on today (media) is total baloney.
ReplyDeleteWe have Trump that spreads hate, fear, nastiness and evil, anti women, bullying, bad language, racist, sexual, etc. and they are going non stop and discrediting this comedian? Total bullshit!
Plus, Huckabee Sanders deserved everything the comedian said. Sanders has lied constantly before the country - just like her nasty boss! Plus, she is a woman that comes across as totally ugly in spirit!
And, she'd been horrible to the press in her continual lousy press conferences (if you want to call them that!).
Watch the Republicans (Trump,et al) go after the comedian and try to bring her down - much like Trump did w/the prior comedian that is just getting things back together (in Las Vegas) - the redhead - can't think of her name.

ReplyDeleteTo which they replied, "SO?"
DeleteLoved Wolf's dialog - she was spot on!!
DeleteWhy 'anyone' would purchase books written by Trump is beyond me. I'd never waste a penny on him - where I have control.
DeleteTaxes are another thing. He has not helped America w/his bogus 'tax plan'! He does nothing but open his anus hole and lie, lie, lie and spread anger, hate and fear, racism, providing for the poor as to food and on and on. Hell truly does await him and his demise cannot come soon enough! Or,
'impeachment', you 'do nothing' Republicans in Congress.
She did a great job entertaining everyone. Sadly much was true. Kellyanne is a liar. Sarah hucklebee is a liar. They work for a liar. and so on. It was funny and true. It is true that some media enabled and elected the monster. And now they can live with the critical complaints due to it. The average American did not deserve this lying shithole fraud raping our country.
ReplyDeleteAnd, the asshole will never be reelected. I don't know one person that supports him and I'm surrounded by many. He is detested by the majority and so is Huckebee Sanders (she's just like him!) and Conway (she's lies and never shuts up when on the air - don't interview her media!).
DeleteDo a boycott on Trump - the less we hear of him the better - don't fall for his baloney and 'news' items that he puts out there that mean nothing!
He doesn't need to be covered every minute of the day...he and his administration are sick as can be!

The press should show some self-respect and stop holding this idiotic smugfest. It hurts their credibility and it hurts the Resistance by playing into every stereotype of out of touch DC elites.
ReplyDeleteI believe that Obama’s attack on Trump at this stupid thing led to Trump running. And here we are. I hope it was worth the one-night yuks.
Fuck you, 11:40 AM!
DeletePresident Obama was spot on when it came to Trump, who could not (and still can't!) take jokes or be able to display a sense of humor.
President Obama has both, plus so much more! Trump will never surpass him in any way!
Trump can cry and whine all he wants, but it's only going to increase the support, love and respect of President Obama, First Lady Michelle and VP Biden!
Oh FFS, 11:40 AM. do you even realize that the press, celebrities, and democrats weren't even invited because DONNIE is the one that's butt hurt?
DeleteIt has absolutely nothing to do with President Obama. It's about a toddler over his head.
I’m referring to Obama’s past past attack on Trump. It backfired, badly 1:18!pm. And WTF are YOU talking about? The press was invited - they run the stupid thing. No real celebrities went, because it’s a bullshit event.
DeleteDid you know the New York Times does not attend, because they have some standards of integrity? That the head of the Columbia School of Journalism says they should stop having it? What does telling some jokes in a DC hotel ballroom have to do with running the country? Or being a reporter who’s beholden to no one, including their sources?
Crap like this is why so many don’t trust the press.
And before some other armchair warrior says fuck you to me, I’m a Democrat who has fought in the trenches in DC my whole life. I just don’t drink Kool-Aid so I can still recognize bullshit when I see it.
You know it's a CHARITY dinner, right? Along with awards of recognition for outstanding work in their field to their colleagues in the profession?
DeleteDid you hear about the reporter still imprisoned. No mention today of a report that was shot dead while he was giving a live report. He wasn't American, so I guess that doesn't count. But if Trump had his way, it wouldn't be long before reporters in this country would be in danger of losing their lives for doing their jobs.
Yeah I know what it is. They don’t help themselves by having it on TV and inviting “celebrities” like Fawn Hall and yes - Donald Trump in the past - that have turned it into a clown show that has strayed very far from its original purpose.
DeleteLooks like only Trump is allowed to “tell it like it is”. Republicans are incredibly thin skinned! I think Michelle Wolf was right on in everything she cracked a joke about. Truth hurts. Suck it up buttercups!

Anyone -- and this includes Andrea Mitchell and other holier-than-thou bullshit artists -- anyone who is attacking Michelle Wolf needs to be asked some questions:
ReplyDelete-- Where were you for eight years when Republicans compared Michelle Obama to an ape?
-- Where have you been the last 30 years when Hillary Clinton has been crucified by rightwingers day in and day out?
-- Where were you when Turtleface McConnell violated the Constitution by refusing to allow Obama's SCOTUS nominee to come to a Senate vote?
-- Where were you when Republicans claimed Obama was not born in America?
Piss on every goddam one of these apologist snowflake whiners.
Old Redneck they’re all swilling Chablis and getting rich in northwest Washington. They suck at it, but their job is reporting the news, not making it. Which is why I hate when they play into Trump’s hands by making themselves the story. Again.
