Joan Rivers dropped the F-bomb on the red carpet at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday night, saying that President Barack Obama and other politicians should “stop campaigning” and "[t]ake care of the f****** country."

“No. I think President Obama should stop campaigning and take care of the country. I think it’s disgusting that everyone two years out is campaigning already. Take care of the f***ing country,” Rivers told CNSNews.com when asked if President Obama has lived up to her expectations.

Better yet they all need to resign so we can put some real Americans on the job.

You sure have a word with words.
I may have a different perspective than you, but I'm no idiot.
I suggest you take a deep breath and reconsider.
Either way, you don't scare me.

She’s a Marxist wench so let’s not get all teary eyed and soft on her with any of this “you go Joan” and “tell it Joan” crap.

She used to be a conservative years ago, and used to joke often about how she was the only one in Hollywood who liked Ron and Nancy. Either her belief system has totally changed or it's all just schtick...going along to get along.

she has always been a #1 conservative

After the election Rivers is quoted in a January 2009 interview on National Public Radio's Weekend Edition, as saying that President Obama is an "off-limits" subject for comedy since "we all have such high hopes for him."

I am not out to scare you. Good grief!!! Should I have such powers!!!

I have been following Joan for many years, and she does not disappoint me. She is a conservative. She has no time for socialist.

She is brilliant. What you folks have a problem with is that she is not PC...like The Donald.

Will never forget the gag played on Joan by Johnnie Carson.

He invited her to a party in - I think - Las Vegas and said there would be a plane for her at LAX. When she arrived at the VIP lounge at the airport there was "Margaret Thatcher" (actually an impersonator famous for the portrayal of Maggie on UK TV).

"Thatcher" took Joan to task for her rude comments about Britain and Princess Anne in particular.

Poor Joan was flabbergasted!! Muttered apologies, ending with the comment "Well, we helped you during the war"

Did you never hear Joan making jokes about the British royal family? Or her impersonations of Princess Anne......"Fore; fore; fore"?

Carson set her up and she fell for it.

Lighten up...it was done as a JOKE.

Joan thought so too and pushed Carson off his seat the next time they were together.

He just signs on the dotted line...he ain’t smart enough...he is way over his head...he was never meant to do anything except give speeches, play golf and vacation...his commie thug handlers take care of the rest....he is nothing more than a hired front man and if he doesn’t say how high when they tell him to jump...they’ll remove him.
