Hillary Clinton vs. The Laugh Factory
« on: November 18, 2015, 07:42:04 PM »

Seems our presumptive next President is a bit thin-skinned:

http://www.judicialwatch.org/blog/2015/11/clinton-goes-after-laugh-factory-comedians-for-making-fun-of-her/

Quote
Besides demanding that the video be taken down, the Clinton campaign has demanded the personal contact information of the performers that appear in the recording. This is no laughing matter for club owner Jamie Masada, a comedy guru who opened Laugh Factory more than three decades ago and has been instrumental in launching the careers of many famous comics. “They threatened me,” Masada told Judicial Watch. “I have received complains before but never a call like this, threatening to put me out of business if I don’t cut the video.”

Well, that's . . . chilly.

Quote
He insists that the comedy stage is a sanctuary for freedom of speech no matter who is offended.

A noble sentiment, but I wonder if "no matter who is offended" includes our protected classes.

It covers people Hollywood likes. Most conservatives are fair game.

If she can't take the heat right now from one small venue, how would she handle it as president with every comedian everywhere making jokes? Presidents always make for good comedy fodder.

Some of that material was cruel. Welcome to the big leagues, Mrs. Clinton. Are you going to cry?

I like how everyone (not just in this video) is so free with the front names of the female candidates, but still use mostly last names with the males. We need to celebrate reasonable sexism, where it still exists. But I still like Limbaugh's tactic of calling her "Mrs. Clinton," just to remind her, and everyone else, that's she's nothing but the lady that happened to be married to a politician that [some] people actually liked.

Crying is for women John Boehner.

Gwar? Those guys are the scumdogs of the universe.

Didn't one of the main guys die not that long ago?

They're not my cup of tea.

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Yep. Heroin. Not a fan of the music, but I can appreciate the humor in the stage show.

Yeah, pretty much. Insane antics and silly costumes. I don't really think GWAR is about the music as much as it's about crazy stage shows.

Except they predate Power Ranges by several years, maybe a decade or more?

Well, they're obviously racist Tea Party rednecks, waging a war on women.

GWAR puts on a kick ass live show. It's a rude, crude, gorefest. Poignant social commentary included. Lady Grebs and I were leaning on the stage speaker a few weeks ago and got the full experience. We even learned a few things about Hillary that you only suspected to be true. They're not really at their best in album format and cell phone captures leave a lot to be desired. I like their gimmick. Your results may vary. RIP Oderus.

"Global Wars".  It's an ANSI bbs door game.
