Kathy Griffin calls Bristol Palin fat at USO event, and soldiers boo her By Laura Donovan - The Daily Caller 11:06 AM 12/06/2010 ADVERTISEMENT
Comedian Kathy Griffin wasn’t so popular with the troops during her USO Diva’s Salute stand-up act on Sunday, when she poked fun at Bristol Palin’s weight.
“[Bristol Palin] is the only contestant in the history of ["Dancing with the Stars"] to actually gain weight.”
Following a chorus of boos, Griffin went on to say, “No, come on, come on. She gained, like, 30 pounds a week. I swear to God, it was fantastic. She’s like the white ‘Precious,’” referring to the obese African-American character in the eponymous 2009 film.
When the booing continued, Griffin shouted, “You can boo louder than that! Come on, boo me! I love it! I love it! War is Hell, war is Hell!”
This isn’t the first shot Griffin has taken at the Palin family. In 2009, Griffin made jokes about Sarah Palin’s infant Trig, who was born with Down Syndrome. Kathy Griffin justified calling Trig Palin a “retard baby” via Twitter:

Why does the USO sponsor such excrement?
Is it time to quit funding the USO and form a new org?
.
It's a "bad joke" to call Sarah Palin's baby who has Down's Syndrome a "retard"? And that's just one example of many of Griffin's past "jokes". She has a history of hating America and everything to do with the Right. She has NO place in the USO and should be cut off immediately.
I just sent the USO an earful via e-mail (rather than a donation this time).
Contact the USO:

I'll send future donations based on the response - or lack of a response - I get from them regarding "entertainers" like Griffin. In the meantime, there are plenty of other pro-troops, pro-America charities to support.
Looks like Carrot Top after a sex-change operation!
Medussa?
No, really, Kath, if you think Bristol Palin looks like the white Gabby Sidibe, you’re not only old, dried up and oversurgeried, you’re blind.
Let’s be honest. I understand why Levi Johnston nailed Bristol. What I don’t understand is how, after hitting that, he would want to nail you.
Yes, it’s now the Barack Obozo USO. And how many zampolits were in the crowd, taking names of those who boo’ed? Will the booing show up in a fitness report?
99.999% of men would gladly tap that body in your post #71. Any man who say's otherwise is GAY :)
I'll try to find her latest binini body pics...nasty.
EXACTLY! My father saw patriot Bob Hope via the USO in the Pacific during WWII.
Who the heck is running the USO now, hiring the likes of gutter skank Kathy Griffin??
I think all the above :-)
Correction, Not post #71 but 109.
My understanding is that the USO pays for expenses (e.g. travel) but does not pay for the performance. Again, if the troops don’t like a performer, don’t you think that would be apparent to the USO? They sign people on to entertain the troops, not to annoy them.
Now that’s what I call a leg!
.
Her knees stick out like gargoyle faces.

I hope she kept the receipt.
Beast and the Beauty!
She’s “Sexy Thick”
“Griffen or Levi?”
BOTH!
Its Seinfelds fault.
