Louis C.K. is probably one of the most feminist comedians working today. He tackles issues about body image. He deliberately injects feminist themes into his comedy. Louis C.K. is all about not being terrible to women.
Hes also flawed. And human. And he used to be on Twitter.

Slow news day.
But this seems positive.
"Louis C.K. also said that Palin him invited him to go fishing with her if he ever finds himself in Alaska, which he said he would do in a heartbeat."

He seems to be drifting rightward.
I know he has complained about the need to be politically correct forcing comedians into a box where they only people they’re allowed to joke about are white conservatives. I know he’s no fan of common core education either.

Howard Stern is just as crude a jackass, jerk.
To: Bratch
I think that was Howard Stern, not Louis CK:
—
STERN: Which is weird too, cause you want to hate her, but you also want to f@ck her.
C.K.: A little bit.
To: Bratch
Most interesting comment in this vile interview is that he hates her because she represents all the beautiful girls in high school who ignored him. How many other liberal males saw that in her? Beautiful women often get a lot of hatred tossed towards them by flaccid men.

It’s a shame I’m too much of a gentleman to say those things about a great person. I’d love the reward of fishing with Governor Palin!

I said look, I didnt know that this was going to have such a big reach, but I said some bad things about you. She said, well, youre a vile person. She said that, and it kind of made me laugh. It was hip on her part.
Sarah Palin clearly isn't a self righteous person and seems to have a talent for reaching people on a personal level.

Hmm.
I'm not sure that "flaccid" is the best choice of words in this case.

The comedienne deserves some credit for apologizing, this article should be about Palin making it possible for the apology to be rendered by being hugely magnanimous in the first place.
If anyone has cause to be bitter its her.

What a BS story. Its all about his “redemption” and covering for him for saying something vile as if he's some hero for doing it. And the party where this dope of a reporter doesn't understand how such a “feminist” comedian could say something like that about Palin is laughable. Hey stupid, Palin is conservative. The “Feminist” rules don't apply to her and the Left feels free to say whatever it wants about conservative women no matter how sexist or crude. I've seen maybe one thing that Louis CK did that was funny. And I'm not buying this “he's really a nice guy underneath” puff piece.

I don’t know.
It seems this was a genuine apology.
I really, really wish Palin would run for President. She is the only candidate I have seen (anywhere) who would really be a huge motivator for an American rebirth.
To: cripplecreek
If you read Tina Fey’s book, she speaks very highly of their interactions on a personal level. You’re right - she just seems to be that kind of person.

"She is the only candidate I have seen (anywhere) who would really be a huge motivator for an American rebirth." Strongly disagree. We have just that kind of candidate in Ted Cruz. He's inspiring people in a manner we haven't seen in a long time...probably not since Reagan.
We wish for & dream of such a candidate. Now I wish we could get behind him and support him.

Louis C.K. isn’t as funny as Sam Kinnison or Norm MacDonald, but I have liked some of his bits.

“The bank called and said I have insufficient funds. I said yes, my funds are woefully insufficient. Thanks for calling. They said you only have $20.00. You can’t just have $20.00. So they charged me $15.00. That’s how much it costs to have $20.00. So now I only have $5.00. So where’s the $20.00 I paid to have??”
To: Durus
I chose it for a particular reason.
