So. In a world where Amy now looks like a bloated pig and whatsherface Tina somehow has a look of shame at the absurdity, Cho finds her ‘fame’ so waning she has to relegate her heritage to buffoonery in order to remain ‘media relevant’.

Just three sick reminders of exactly what our ‘stars’ of today really represent.

Regarding PC - I say, if you don’t like what I say or do, tough. Deal with it.

[dfwgator]

Please, those two are as PC as it gets.

Modern society’s troops of perpetual outrage seek to squelch Freedom of Speech, but they don't even do that well. They are basically confused, morally and ethically elastic, and 2-dimensional--lack depth--and they function on a level of stupidity. What's even worse are the people who give them serious attention.

In may seem like I’m throwing a temper tantrum, but after what Tina Fey did to Gov Palin, I didn’t watch the show because she was hosting and I flip the channel every time she comes on a commercial or a movie, etc. on TV. She can make all the money she wants, but she’s not going to do it with my support

These are older liberals that still retain a bit of rationality and the ability for self-reflection. The new generation has passed them by.

This is what Mary Katherine Ham feels compelled to write about?

Why would anyone with any sense even now about these stories?

[Revelation 911]

“I am from this culture. I am from this tribe. And so I’m able to comment on it.”

I'm not buying it - it's more of the "hey don't call me ni**a, only we can call ourselves ni**a" stuff.

That said - I could give a rats behind about NK or Cho's angry lesbian schtick

as for Crowe.....I think less of him than Cho

does anyone ever stop and lament the declining standard as compared to an awards program hosted by Hope or Crosby?

[Safetgiver]

lament the declining standard as compared to an awards program hosted by Hope or Crosby? ....That is SO 50ish. Who cares about this dreck anymore?

[deadrock]

In the end, it is all about tribes. And right now, the white tribe is getting a kicking. Thanks progressives.

Back in in the late 90’s I was working in San Francisco on Pine St. Margaret Cho was in town either on a movie set in the area or maybe doing a comedy show. Anyway I was waiting in line at a Sushi take out place on Larkin. I turned around and Cho was standing behind me in a one piece leather jump suit ala Cat Woman.

Lets just say she shouldn't wear form fitting one piece clothing and to say she fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down would be charitable.

Tina Fey needs to keep Margaret (C)ho around. Next to Maggie, Tina looks like a goddess. Kind of like a cute girl walking a bulldog ...

[a fool in paradise]

White people aren’t allowed to join tribes. That’s RACISS.

[a fool in paradise]

Strictly lone wolf no club.

[angcat]

How did these two ugly women get such an important hosting job?

[dfwgator]

Frankly, the only decent host they’ve had recently was Seth McFarlane.

[roofgoat]

wow, really ballsy of them going after Lil Kim - sarc.

When I see Hollywood go after the religion of peace and sons of Obama, then I’ll pat them on the back.

Tune into TLC Saturday nights to hear Cho talk “All About Sex.”
