No work done? Are you really that stupid? She's admitted to tons of procedures.
I can think of one more procedure she could have done. Wait for it ... KILL HERSELF. There, that's out of the way.
She could also take her comedy routine to Syria.

I don't care who the President is. I don't care what party he belongs to. I don't care what her beliefs are. That is WAY over the line when speaking about any President. And any network that continues to employ her is enabling and encouraging deviants like her.
A Denver Post sports writer (Terry Frei ) lost his job after the Indy 500, for saying that a Japanese driver winning the Memorial Day race made him feel “very uncomfortable”. He didn't make an overtly racist comment about the Japanese people. And he did say that he didn't have anything personal against Takuma Sato (who most racing fans would agree is a nice guy). He just said that it made him feel uncomfortable because of Japan's role in WWII. That was about it. But he was fired within 24 hours. The paper said that his tweet was "disrespectful". He is currently considered unemployable in the newspaper/sports industry.
Juxtapose that with what [NOBABE]Kathy Griffin[/NOBABE] did. Other than Squatty Potty immediately dropping her from a recently signed endorsement deal and CNN saying that it's "evaluating her role in the New Year’s Eve broadcast", she's gotten off light so far. And it's that hypocrisy that bothers me even more than what low class [NOBABE]Kathy Griffin[/NOBABE] did.
IMO, had someone done that with Obama or Hillary Clinton, they might as well just give up, change their name and get a job at Burger King... because their days in the entertainment industry would be over forever.

It's gross, it's offensive. I hate it.
But it's heart. Just like the mohamed cartoons are art.
Those who think that this shouldn't be tolerated are on the same page than thoe who think the mohamed cartoons shouldn't be either. They are on the side of censorship and against free speech.
Now the question is : Is she making a point with this or is she desperately trying to get attention ?

I will say that before yesterday I had no idea what Squatty Potty was. Now I do and I might get one. Thank you, Kathy Griffin. You may have the face of a Ginger Scarecrow and your comedy reeks of Elaine Boosler desperation but your art exhibit might have taught me the lesson of more thorough evacuation and help me poop better.

I have no idea where people get the misplaced and incorrect notion that being against moronic behavior or acts (disguised as "art") is the same as being against free speech and for censorship. I don't know anything about the French constitution. But here in the United States, there is absolutely NOTHING in the Bill of Rights which guarantees people the freedom to say or do anything that they want, without the possibility of suffering consequences from private parties. And that's where I am on this issue. While I said nothing about Griffin being subject to legal or government prosecution for her idiotic act (no more art than a monkey shitting on a canvas and hanging it in a museum), to suggest that she should be exempt from her employers reacting to her idiocy is sheer fantasy.
As we discuss free speech, what would happen to me if I went on French television and said that I doubted or denied the Holocaust? Do people have the right to say that in France? I could do that in the U.S. and I wouldn't hear from anyone from the U.S. government or a state police agency. Can we say the same about France???
She absolutely has the right to publish this garbage just as I have the right to denounce it. I think this stunt falls in the "just spell my name right" category of publicity stunts. Extremely bad taste, disgusting and repulsive and I would say the same thing no matter who the president was. Ignore the bitch is my suggestion.
Kathy Griffin is not funny, never has been. I don't know why she's even famous.

Imagine a New Year's Eve without the team of Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin. How are they going to replace that magic? I know CNN had been begging Larry Storch for years to take that gig.
didn't Kathy Griffin strip down to her underwear live on CNN like she was a 55-year-old younger version of Madonna?
I can't remember; it was New Year's Eve.

On that we agree, if her employer wants to fire her for that photoshoot, he can. But she shouldn't be prosecuted for that.
You have a point.As we discuss free speech, what would happen to me if I went on French television and said that I doubted or denied the Holocaust? Do people have the right to say that in France?

But I would answer that as oipposed to France, the US government did not took part to the holocaust, forced jews to were a yellow star on their clothes, no US police officers were sent at dawn to round-up jews, park them in a velodrome and then sent them to concentration camps in stock cars.
Because we did it we have to face it, we musn't white-wash the worst part of our own History.
Ok, in France you can't say "the holocaust never happened" on TV. But you can say "shit", "fuck" "pussy", "tits", "ass", etc. Nobody's gonna be shocked, nobody's gonna write to the network and ask fro you to be removed from air because you said "fuck" on air in the middle of the afternoon.
The french celebrate la Fête nationale but do they also navel gaze over the mob-rule butchery of the French Revolution? It was so murderous and perverse that it turned in on itself and the revolutionaries started executing each other and where people were being beheaded because ... hey, why not?
We saw the same phenomenon with those Bolshevik morons.

Not a free speech issue here. The 1st Amendment protects you from government interference. Except if you make threats. The government did not fire or prosecute Kathy Griffin. Her employer has every right to fire her ass if they do not want to be associated with such idiocy.
The latter
It's a felony to threaten POTUS. But she won't be prosecuted. I think I read that the Secret Service has opened an investigation but that's protocol. I've lost count how many times Ted Nugent has threatened Obama and/or Clinton
Like directly? "By this time next year, I'll be dead or in jail." and Obama can "suck my machine gun" is a metaphor for any number of things. He did call Obama a "piece-of-shit" which is a factual statement. Ted Nugent is an artist and it's polticial satire, right?
Kathy whats-her-face essentially sided with ISIS and trivialized the beheadings of Americans and countless others at their hands. I hope she never gets beheaded herself. Not really.
Sure, whatever. I literally don't care at all about this story. This and the 'covfefe' stuff. All nonsense
of course not. it's just nonsense.
