Jimmy Kimmel: we need to cut off Kavanugh’s penis.
KIMMEL: “I think there’s a compromise here. Hear me out on this. So, Kavanaugh gets confirmed to the Supreme Court, okay. Well, in return we get to cut that pesky penis of his off in front of everyone." pic.twitter.com/CXVKc25Ylc

Jimmy Kimmel: feel around the area of my penis.
To get serious for a moment: Kavanaugh’s situation and Kimmel’s are not the same thing, obviously. All Kimmel did was use his TV stardom to get women to voluntarily grab around his crotch area. Kavanaugh, by contrast … likely did nothing wrong at all. The only woman who has specifically accused him of doing anything with his penis told people all week she wasn’t sure it was him.
I’m just saying that Jimmy Kimmel might not be the exact right guy to be carrying this stupid banner.

it’s fun to contrast the devil-may-care conviviality and nonchalance of the american with the way american woman parts have been elevated to a sacred and holy relic
happyfeet (28a91b) — 9/26/2018 @ 8:16 amKimmel’s my favorite of the late-night hosts, but that one was too much. I loved his work on The Man Show.
Paul Montagu (0e687b) — 9/26/2018 @ 8:20 amGag me with a spoon. And this POS is on the public airwaves.
nk (dbc370) — 9/26/2018 @ 8:30 am3… agree. Kimmel was castrated several years ago, so he should not be looked to for prescriptive guidance in this area.
Colonel Haiku (501bf0) — 9/26/2018 @ 8:40 amOf course, when I say that Kimmel is my favorite of the late-night hosts, it’s like saying taht, out of braunschweiger, pate, giblets and sweetbreads, braunschweiger is my favorite.

DCSCA (797bc0) — 9/26/2018 @ 8:43 amI think it was Robert Tracinski of The Federalist who concluded that most media/entertainment figures seem to have accepted that Western audiences are incontestably balkanized. As a result, emphasis has shifted from attempting to build audience share by transcending political bias to protecting audience share by forcefully embracing it. When the choir are the only people you can count on preaching to anymore, in other words, you pander to the flipping choir.
The tragedy of this mindset is that, like Henry Ford’s observation about “Whether you believe you can or believe you can’t, you’re right,” it is more self-fulfilling than anyone wants to admit.
Stephen J. (f77922) — 9/26/2018 @ 8:48 amI think when it comes to comedians the consistency we should look for is if the bit is funny.
Time123 (6e0727) — 9/26/2018 @ 8:49 amNot sure if Kimmel is or not. Don’t watch him.
He wasn’t serious. He’s only serious when he’s pretending to cry.
frosty48 (6226c1) — 9/26/2018 @ 8:54 amI think he has been clipped, she’s schumer’s schnauzer,
narciso (d1f714) — 9/26/2018 @ 8:55 amoops the american *penis* that was supposed to be
happyfeet (28a91b) — 9/26/2018 @ 8:55 amwhat does it mean that the filter lets you say penis but not v-
happyfeet (28a91b) — 9/26/2018 @ 8:56 amThe great Carsoni is truly missed.
mg (9e54f8) — 9/26/2018 @ 9:09 amHe wasn’t serious.
what if he had joked that we should gouge out Ruth Bader’s v-
i think that would be really serious (sacred relic)
happyfeet (28a91b) — 9/26/2018 @ 9:11 amTime for the Avenatti thread. I think playtime is over.
frosty48 (6226c1) — 9/26/2018 @ 9:34 amSorry, Time for the Avenatti thread? I think playtime is over?
Got a little careless with the punctuation.
frosty48 (6226c1) — 9/26/2018 @ 9:47 ammg, indeed – I came late to the Carson game (roughly the 9 years before his 1992 retirement), but it was a treat to catch it on a night where the Mighty Carson Art Players performed a skit.

Nice to see his porn scriptwriting career is still a go.

Red flags. How many do we see?
NJRob (1d7532) — 9/26/2018 @ 10:55 amIf rape fantasy girl had kept a calendar she coulda had pizza every anniversary
happyfeet (64b555) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:00 amor maybe some crepes
happyfeet (bb7bab) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:03 amJefferson’s is an artifact of a certain era, what wormhole did we step through?
narciso (d1f714) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:06 amhf 12, it means you have a fixation on v-s?
DRJ (15874d) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:08 amyou’re guessing or you know for sure
happyfeet (bb7bab) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:16 amI know you’ve always liked the v word.
DRJ (15874d) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:19 amDo we think this about truth anymore, drj?
narciso (d1f714) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:21 amYou could just adapt the basic theme to a different city, George would be coming from a “slurb” to a hipster haven (Clayton/Prince George/south Dallas Co./south Cook co. to the a gentrified part of the big city) instead of the UES. There was a bad TBS/TNT Tracy Morgan vehicle that explored an ex-con O.G. that returned to his native Brooklyn after 15 years in the pen.
urbanleftbehind (5eecdb) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:21 amI don’t know, narciso. Maybe. Hold a hearing and vote.
DRJ (15874d) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:24 amI just say vote at this point, the deems won’t be convinced anymore to vote for him, every delay has encouraged this (redacted) show
narciso (d1f714) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:29 amI want to give Kavanaugh a chance to testify. It is the fair thing to do and a hearing might convince some wavering Senators to support him.
DRJ (15874d) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:32 amSo the code pink psychos can disrupt the hearing,
narciso (d1f714) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:34 amDoes anyone remember laughter… that isn’t maniacal?
Colonel Haiku (501bf0) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:35 amIts because its forced, like with nitric oxide:

narciso (d1f714) — 9/26/2018 @ 11:40 amyou know who else needs to testify is Jodi Foster
happyfeet (28a91b) — 9/26/2018 @ 12:10 pmyes yes the dirty filthy australians tried to do a sick hillary coup on america
they basically declared war on democracy
happyfeet (28a91b) — 9/26/2018 @ 12:12 pm@37. Mel Gibson, too, Mr. Feet!
DCSCA (797bc0) — 9/26/2018 @ 12:15 pmWe’re even. I think next time Jimmy makes false allegations we should cut out his tongue.
