Kathy Griffin dabbles in fat shaming, and one of her followers serves up an impressively well-drawn poster of "The White Couple From St. Louis."


UPDATE: I can't believe I omitted the "men in shorts" tag. Fixed.

How dare they show opposition to The Peaceful Protesters (tm) ?

I believe The White Couple from St. Louis are Democrats - or at least were until they had a wake up call. Once again, they love diversity but resort to name calling.

Ugly inside and out, she is..;

jim said...

I didn't remember who Kathy Griffin is, so when I saw that first picture I figured THAT was the Kathy Griffin you're talking about and why would she be fat-shaming anyone.

Steve makes an ugly chick, don't he just.

Birkel said...

When the mobs come to their next victims' house, I hope the well-drawn cartoon will be just as classy as this one.

The lesson is that. Ivory should resist the Leftist Collectivists.
Never you mind those cattle cars in the distance.

To bad she's butt-ugly, even though she's not funny she'd at least have something to fall back on.

cubanbob said...

I guess she can't smell herself.

The couple who brandished weapons using extremely poor safety protocols and even worse situational awareness were vilified on gun forums and blogs. Except, one and all noted after criticising trigger and muzzle discipline, tactics, lack of cover/concealment, etc., except that they succeeded, even with their poor techniques and decisions, in keeping their home from being damaged by the Antifa & BLM scum.

As to KG, imagine if Hillary had won. KG and her ilk would have been entertaining us for the past four years, nonstop.

Was it Voltaire who said that you have to know who you can and can't make fun of?

Maybe it was an early internet post by Lincoln.

In any case, we see who is fair game and who is "safe."

No. Look it up. Don't just be part of the fake news.

Joe Smith said...

Proof that this country is great, that a no-talent hack like Griffin is rich.

Proof that this country is full of morons for the same reason.

Kathy Griffin for Secretary of (soon to be created) the "that's not funny" department of the Federal government.

Jim at said...

I look forward to the funny poster when someone actually starts mowing down the rioters who threaten them.

The left's continuation of their deplorable campaign.

btw- I'd be fine if ugly un-funny loser Kathy would drop dead.

Both Whites and Blacks have watched people of all races being attacked, burned out, beaten and killed by "mostly peaceful protesters". Many Blacks have resisted the BLM assholes, and some have come together to chase them away from their neighborhoods, so the threat and fear is the same for people regardless of color. Now imagine if that couple was Black with the same mob approaching and the same response from them. Who would still be supporting them, and who would be torn about how to attack the Black couple in St Louis?

WWIII Joe Biden, Husk-Puppet + America's Putin said...

Is there anyone on the left who care about Biden corruption?
The Hunter Biden international grift on air-force 2 is a ...big fucking deal.

Cop caught me going 59 in 35mph zone this morning. It was the end of a freeway where the speed limit changes abruptly, so basically a speed trap. I pulled into a parking lot, shut down the truck, grabbed my paperwork and held it with both hands on the steering wheel, the ever present warm Glock 19 in my waist band. He says " Doing 59 in a 35." I said, Sorry, I was in a hurry to get to work". He asks for my paperwork, takes a quick look at my Driver's License and says: "Be safe, have a nice day." I say "Thanks, you too."

My Mexican friend riding with me says it was because I told him the truth.
Was it White privilege? Never worked before.
Karma? I did buy some cops lunch recently.
I say it was the blue line American flag I have on my rear bumper in support of cops. I have one on the front of my business as well. I've had them for a couple years now.
Recently, I've been wondering if I would pay a price for having them displayed. So many cop haters there and vandalism is easy. Looks like, so far, it's been worth the risk.

Last week a young Black woman from the Environmental Health Department did a surprise inspection of our facility for hazardous materials management. This week she sent me her report. No violations, but she also included that although she didn't mention it at the time, she had surreptitiously been inspecting for our Covid compliance for the Governor while she was here. I had thought about that to myself at the time, but assumed she was not. Despite the fact that only myself and a few others working here consistently wear face coverings, she gave us an "in compliance" report card. My mostly young workforce, just don't give a shit about Covid anymore. They have been spooked too many times already with people testing positive and nobody actually getting sick. I've given up harping on them to wear a mask. It's like following the speed limit. Nobody really does that consistently except the Karens, and nobody wants to be like them.

Birkel said...

What difference does political affiliation make?
Does the mob distinguish?

Althouse participates in a fake news lie by pretending political affiliation matters.
Be better, Althouse.

The mob wants to prove it has total control and power over others.
All others.

Drago said...

Lori Lightfoot has ordered the Chicago PD to arrest ant protesters that attempt to protest on her street....

.....but ONLY her street.

What an absolutely perfect democratical thing to do.

gadfly said...

Snopes says ". . . the majority of McCloskey's political donations since 2012 have gone to Republicans, including many contributions to U.S. President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign."

Iman said...

"I believe The White Couple from St. Louis are Democrats"

No... it's those BLM fucks who are democrats.

Laslo Spatula said...

The Aesthetics of Cruel Neutrality, it seems.

I am Laslo.

bagoh20 said...

I couldn't find out if they were Democrats or not, but Snopes says they donated to Democrats in the past and Trump more recently, but they only went into detail about the Trump donations for some reason.

Their lawyer did state that they support BLM as a movement, which might explain their poor self-defense tactical maneuvers. Always use cover, especially against a group of assailants, some of whom they said were armed.

jaydub said...

Wait until Kathy gets a load of Tim Dillon.

jaydub said...

"'I believe The White Couple from St. Louis are Democrats'

No. Look it up. Don't just be part of the fake news."

They were media targets because they are white and armed and they confronted "largely peaceful" BLM protestors. Political affiliation has nothing to do with them, it only comes into play because the DA who is persecuting them is a Dem and Soros plant and he's doing what Soros hired him to do.

Amadeus 48 said...

The point about the St. Louis couple is not that they made a spectacle of themselves when BLM/antifa came roaring through their gated community after having torn down the gate, it is that that nitwit Soros-backed St. Louis prosecutor criminally charged them for it.

By the way, if I lived in a big showplace next to Kingshighway on Portland or Westmoreland, I'd have a couple of guns and I'd know how to use them.

He is a plaintiff's personal injury lawyer. That usually is a Democrat profile. McCloskey, however, has given to both Republicans and Democrats, but more to Republicans and only to presidential candidates from the GOP.

Kathy Griffin dabbles in fat shaming

By your standard any full-body shot of Steve Bannon would be fat shaming. Griffin's actual barb, not entirely without merit, is that if you look up the word disheveled in a dictionary you'll find Bannon's picture.

Amadeus 48 said...

My source was Open Secrets. He gave to Giuliani, and then Trump. He gave to Bush. He gave to various members of the Carnahan tribe (Robin and Russ), who are Democrats.

alanc709 said...

Kathy Griffin wasn't improved by plastic surgery, so to be shaming someone else's looks is probably as funny as she gets.

Earnest Prole said...

Kathy Griffin really ought to leave Bannon jokes to the professionals:

rcocean said...

Kathy Griffith, like most Hollywood liberals is driven by hate. But then given her looks and personality, you can see why. Google her picture. All that plastic surgery, and she's still ugly.

But NOT fat.

n.n said...

They were media targets because they are white and armed and they confronted "largely peaceful" BLM protestors.

They didn't kneel to the diversity racket, and stood their ground against leftist intimidation and invasion of their private space. In other places, the neo-KKK and neo-fascists hang, burn effigies, shops, churches in a progressive campaign... and then the came for their Democrat patrons.

rcocean said...

BTW, I've resolved to listen to Biden's speech while working on computer and having a nice glass of wine. Not sure how long I can hang with it, but I will try.

Sprezzatura said...

If I was gonna ‘cruel neutrality’ style make a call here, I’d say the pic is representative re slovenlyness, and the drawing is well-drawn re ugly shaming. Cause ya gotta talk subject re deciding something is or is not well done. IMHO.

If push came to shove, I’d say there’s fat shaming in both. But, that’s the secondary (or later) take. IMHO.

Carry on.

Gadfly I did "check out the belly" on Trump on that golf swing video. He's definitely got a "Dunlop" as in done lopped over the belt. I don't know if you've played any sports, but in most sports the important thing is not "how" but rather "how many". The video noted that Trump's golf swing was unorthodox. But I looked at the flight of the ball he hit, and he smacked it pretty danged good. Like most Sunday golfers I'd take that drive off the tee.

And now to dear little Ms. Griffin. Back in my high school days, teen aged boys said of teenage girls who were not particularly attractive, "She's sort of ugly but she's got good bones." Can't say that about Kathy Griffin ---her poisonous attitude makes her ugly clear to and through the bone. And yes, Bannon's a slob--so what? Kathy is no Georgia Peach her own nasty self.

Chuck said...

I’m not terribly interested in punishment for Bannon. After all, who did he rip off? People pouring their disposable retirement incomes into... The Wall?!? I don’t care if he goes to jail for such a victimless crime.

No; what I want to see is Bannon flipping on senior members — very senior members — of the Trump Administration.

William said...

Bannon looks comfortable and beyond the reach of Kathy Griffin's poor opinion. He was probably good looking in his younger days, but now his wealth and status are sufficient to make an impression and/or get laid....He has quite a lot of money. I wonder why or if he got involved in such a penny ante scheme. Still, they charged him. Cy Vance found nothing substantial in the allegations against Harvey Weinstein so you know how scrupulous his office must be about bringing unsubstantiated charges.

walter said...

I wish Kathy would wear a mask always.
Better yet, a bag.

Unknown said...

Is she still porking Woz?

Michael said...

I am behind fat shaming. Used to work wonders until we stopped. Also ugly shaming which is where this woman comes in.

Bannon's ship shape for a Navy man. Nicely filled out. A husky, big boned boy

I suspect Bannon could be persuaded to testify that senior members - very senior members - of the Trump Administration have accomplished far more than embittered jealous little lawyers from Michigan.

I’m not sure that actually bothers anyone besides our boy Chuck, but boy, does it get to him!

The Vault Dweller said...

There is nothing wrong with fat shaming. I don't mean set out to be mean to people who are overweight. But we as a society need to push back against the fat is beautiful insanity.

Birkel said...

People who lie about their political affiliations?
Yeah, those people are the worst.

Fopdoodles everywhere think Bannon was part of the Trump Administration.
Stupid down to their respective cores.

stevew said...

Kathy Griffin is shaming someone based on their body shape and overall looks? Hey, Kettle, it's me, Pot, you're Black!

n.n said...

This poster pays homage to the LA riots, where [Korean-]Americans stood their ground against a Some, Select Black Lives Matter protest of that era, and so many other mostly peaceful protests of the left-kind founded on false premises... reused, recycled. They must think people are so green.

The subject is weight not golf swing and the belly hanging out and over the tightly-hitched pants is a weight problem. Trump's body mass hides his enormous size better than Bannon who is now several inches shorter than six foot and Steve's college picture shows how small his body structure really is, making weight-gain fat pop-up everywhere except on his arms and legs.

Birkel said...

When the burning times start in earnest, gadfly will be happy he is svelte, one supposes.

Drago said...

Howard: "Bannon's ship shape for a Navy man. Nicely filled out. A husky, big boned boy"

Interesting fact: Bannon has just as much actual combat time as Howard...though apparently Howard believes watching Howard's Heroes on TV shooting 5 year olds in the head at point blank range and other Howard's Heroes ripping off kids lemonade stands at gunpoint counts as heroic and courageous behavior in combat.

Drago said...

Another interesting note: gadfly is a big time fan of the svelte and athletic Jerry Nadler.

Has she ever looked in the mirror??? I would rather be fat than look like an emaciated rag doll.

The only way the left and their Media Propaganda pieces would care about this, is if it were a Trump child who made lots of money from China..THEN there would be trial upon trial, and media coverage 24/7 for years.

Michael K said...

gadfly is on a roll about Trump's belly. Does it give you a woodie to watch him ?

Try to get some healthy interests. Watch Craig Stadler if you want fat golfers.
