The White House is reportedly demanding an apology from the Kerry-Edwards campaign after Thursday night's Manhattan fundraiser - where comic Whoopi Goldberg targeted President Bush with a filth-laden monologue as the two top Democrats looked on and laughed.
"Waving a bottle of wine, [Goldberg] fired off a stream of vulgar sexual wordplays on Bush's name in a riff about female genitalia, and boasted that she'd refused to let Team Kerry clear her material," reported Friday's New York Post.
"I Xeroxed my behind and I folded it up in an envelope and I sent it back with a big kiss mark on because we're Democrats - we're not afraid to laugh," she added.
With or without his prior approval, the obscene rant seemed to please top Democrat Kerry, who could be seen laughing uproariously during part of Goldberg's tirade. Neither member of the Democratic duo voiced a single objection after aging comic's ugly act. Far from being offended, Kerry thanked all the performers at the Radio City Music Hall event for "an extraordinary evening," adding that "every performer tonight ... conveyed to you the heart and soul of our country."
For his part Edwards actually boasted that it was "a great honor" to sit through the X-rated show, adding without a hint of irony, "This campaign will be a celebration of real American values."
Other stars displayed their raw contempt for Bush, but managed to avoid drifting into Goldberg's blue zone.
Actress Jessica Lange branded the Bush administration "a self-serving regime of deceit, hypocrisy and belligerence," while comic Chevy Chase heaped scorn on Bush's intellect: "This guy is as bright as an egg-timer."
The Bush administration was reportedly so outraged by Goldberg's raunchy routine that it now wants team Kerry to apologize, WABC Radio reported Friday morning.
I think they should have said nothing and let the record speak for itself. To acknowledge the event is to give it worthiness.
Excellent move!
The true face of the enemy.
They are the enemy.
Another moment in time with Team Socialist having egg on it's face. What the looney left seems to CONSTANTLY forget is that MAINSTREAM America (fly-over country) has little tolerance for scum spewing from used up bums like Goldberg and Chase.
What about Cheney?
This needs to be hammered in the next commercial..
BEHOLD! The true face of the left
And with a split personality at that.
?
"every performer tonight ... conveyed to you the heart and soul of our country."
No, just the part of the country that you represent, Mr. Kerry. Pretty disgusting, isn't it.
Defintely.
Just more klinton era degradation. I am so glad this party is being exposed. Who cares about an apology? You have to have character in order for an apology to mean something. These people have to go low because they are unacquainted with dignity and the genuine hilarity of positive humor.
This is sort of stunt is going to backfire on them. Their hatred of President Bush is making them ever more degenerate. If their presidential ticket wants to be part of this kind of sick filth, let them go right ahead. After all the Left today is against traditional values, the traditional family, and American traditions. Last night's fund-raiser helps to put the lie to John F*ckin's claim he shares the values of America's conservative heartland. He and his running mate Little Johnny will tell people whatever they want to hear. Look at how far the Democratic Party has fallen. I don't think you need to connect the i's and t's to show just how out of touch with the mainstream they are.
Not at all. They know they will never see an apology.
But, if they don't make a case of it, most of America will never hear of this. We do better when the RATS are exposed for who they are.
Too true. They are so sadly mistaken in their belief that they support average Americans. Just a bunch of pigs with their faces in the trough.
Birds of a feather...
The problem is..."main-stream" America...will never hear about this.
