I thought it was wonderful. Her (intentionally) awkward delivery was part of what made it funny, it seemed more genuine. Sure it certainly didn't comply with "when they go low we go high" but it was acceptable and not any worse than what Sanders does to reporters literally every day.

It wasn't funny but it made the Hulkabeast squirm so kudos!

Huckabee got the best press of anyone out of this unfortunate affair, with his pose under fire, so your schadenfreude might be a bit misplaced here.
I haven't been paying attention to the media response, nor do I care. LOL. I just liked seeing her ripped to shreds to her face. Smiley

I guess we all like to see folks get their comeuppance.

I'll like seeing Stacey Abrams go down in flames on primary day.  
I'll enjoy it greatly, to be honest.
Isn't she polling, like, 18 points ahead of Evans? Even though most are still undecided, a ton (as in like 70% of undecideds) would have to swing to Evans for her to even narrowly win, and with the kind of massive, well funded, well run campaign juggernaut that Abrams is running (and the fact that she's reaching out to those who haven't been reached out to, ever) I find that extremely unlikely.

Why do you want to see Stacey Abrams go down in flames? She's not even running in your state or to represent you.

Fuzzy is pretty much the Archie Bunker of Atlas, simple as that.

Overall, it was pretty tasteless and just about as crude as I expected it to be. I thought the abortion remark she made was simply disgusting...

 "Don’t knock it ‘til you try it — and when you do try it, really knock it. You know, you’ve got to get that baby out of there."

I think whether you're pro-life or pro-choice, we can all agree that abortion is not something to celebrate as good, in and of itself. Not saying she shouldn't have been allowed to say it, just saying that it's sad that this is what passes for humor.



This, indeed, was the worst part of the presentation.  Ragging on Trump, or even on his Press Secretary, Sanders, is one thing; this comment is another.

Many years ago, Tex Antoine, a weather reporter in NYC with a known alcohol problem, made a comment on the air as to if rape were inevitible, sit back and enjoy it.  The outcry was immediate, and Antoine was deservedly fired.  I see little difference between his comment and this comedienne's comment.  Both of them joke about a traumatic event in a person's life.  

This issue isn't going to keep me up at nights.  I expect such insensitivity from entertainers; they only get upset at comments about children when it's THEIR parenting brought into question.  But this comment does reflect Michelle Wolf's lack of regard for the humanity of children, and if she's made to feel uncomfortable by the public spotlight shining on this comment, so be it.

Yeah the whole ultra feminist, stereotypical frizzy-haired look combined with hateful leftist commentary isn't appealing. Always remember that people like her are insignificant. Men don't like them for dating prospects, the country rejects them politically (except run-down urban areas that vote blue no matter what) and their mean-spiritedness is more bark than bite.
>"Michelle Wolf was so mean when she attacked SHS's looks!!!!!!!!!!1!!1!"
>Attacks Michelle Wolf's looks and says men don't want to date her, as if a woman's date-ability affects whether political points she makes are valid
