Sandra Bernhard issued a blistering warning to Sarah Palin during a performance of her new one-woman show.

The Republican V.P. nom would be "gang-raped by my big black brothers" if she enters Manhattan, Bernhard said. Palin is said to be making a campaign stop in New York next week.

"[The gang rape comment] is part of a much larger, nuanced, and yes, provocative (that's what I do) piece from my show about racism, freedom, women's rights and the extreme views of Governor Sarah Palin, a woman who doesn't believe that other women should have the right to choose," Bernhard told the Daily News today.

What goes around, comes around. Palin defenders need to learn pick their fights a bit more wisely.

What did I miss? Did Gov Palin or her supporters say something bad about this "comedian"?

We’re talking liberal TV personalities here, A good tongue lashing by Palin’s husband would be enough. I would think repercussions of insulting a Lady for the “Fun of it” needs some old fashioned angry pissed off husband giving Verbal abuse lessons to the TV talking head. Verbal Abuse for Verbal Abuse, Tic for Tac.
If Violence of any type follows, Letterman and Friends might “keepa you mouth shut” based upon observed repercussions.
I know I would Visit the SOB personally.
What IF this was a Musilim’s Wife ?

LOL - if anyone would know about herpes or the full range of stds it is this hideous she-male

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

No, nothing of the sort. I’m just saying that using this throw away line from a no-talent, second tier “comedian” as a line-in-the-sand point is a bit of an over reaction.

[SolidWood]

Andrew Dice Clay tried this schtick for comedy once. What goes around, comes around. Palin defenders need to learn pick their fights a bit more wisely.

Huh? What does ADC have to do with this? What have "Palin defenders" to do with either ADC or this Nice-what's-his-name?

[cranked]

Ding, ding, we have a winner!

If this had been said by a white man or woman concerning Barry, all hell would currently be experienced.

Na, one can never over react to the MSM/DNC/Hollywood/Academia War Room.

Kathie Lee was conservative once..

(in the same spirit of humour)

folowed by a round of “guess what yer daddy’s name might have been?”

"gang-raped by my big black brothers" if she enters Manhattan, Bernhard said

something the Nose would pay big bucks for to have happen to herself if she could find some less discriminating black men willing to do the favor

[dearolddad]

He probably knows more about herpes than he does about politics

I'm a comedian too, and I have it on pretty good authority that his wife has regular romantic encounters with various barnyard animals. (Don't you think I am funny too?)

[wbarmy]

They can say what they want about her as much as they want, but there are consequences. God is not mocked and has a long memory.
