‘Disgusting’: NBC viewers not amused by actress Natasha Leggero’s mockery of Pearl Harbor vets
Twitchy ^ | 31 Dec 13 | Michelle Malkin

Posted on 01/01/2014 7:14:47 AM PST by LSUfan

As Twitchy readers will recall, the makers of SpaghettiOs apologized last month for a crass Pearl Harbor day promotional tweet. Actress and “comedian” Natasha Leggero, a co-host of NBC’s New Year’s Eve special along with TV/radio personality Carson Daly, apparently decided to double-down on stupid with a New Year’s Eve swipe at America’s greatest generation.

Because nothing says festive like mocking WWII heroes who survived the Pearl Harbor raid.

More proof that Hollyweird sucks. Natasha Leggero, who ever the hell she is, is now on my boycott list.

Any sponsor of any program that employs Leggero should also be reminded of what kind of vermin they are. We must attack their source of funding, otherwise they will persist in bringing our western culture down.

I’m tired of apologies...accepting none of them. If this is what these people think, then so be it...why apologize? Ask me how I feel about things, I
will tell you, with no apology later!

I must retract some of my last post. I fail to see the malevolent intent of the original Spaghettios tweet. Maybe a little tasteless, but no bad intent. What did Natasha say?

The short research i did on Natasha tells me she's a 'shock' comedienne that lives to offend

She's a "C" list celebrity/comedienne.

“Its pretty sad the the survivors of pearl harbor are being mocked by the only food they can still chew”
– Natasha Leggero


Cans of spaghettio’s are mocking the Pearl Harbor survivors? That doesn’t even make sense.

We always watch the live World Cam feed. All the entertainment, no commentary.

Why folks watch anything labeled with NBC is a mystery to me.

Megyn Kelly on Fox did a beautiful tribute to our WWII vets the other day. Natasha should be made to watch it.

I just went to Ms. Leggero's Facebook page, where I planned to give this woman a piece of my mind, but ultimately decided against it for two reasons: 1) Many other people had previously given Natasha Leggero ample helpings of their minds, and: 2) I figured that there is nothing that I could say which is not either redundant or so vile that I would be taking myself down to Ms. Leggero's level, or even lower. I went to Ms. Leggero's Facebook page thinking that I could provide her with some sort of "great insight" into her travesty cum depravity, but a cursory examination of her Facebook comments quickly showed me that such a belief was simply fatuous. Okay: I will admit my real reason for not posting anything on Natasha Leggero's Facebook page: I felt sorry for this pathetic excuse for a human being, even before I saw the Pearl Harbor comments. The woman now has physical beauty, but Time will eventually take that beauty, and leave Ms. Leggaro with that "Mylie-Cyrus-without-the-singing-talent" soul of hers, and that, to me at least, will be punishment enough!

I am sure we are all shocked by anther indecent lefty being given a platform while normal people would never be allowed on TV at all.

Half of this country never see anything on TV that represents them and their values.

It wasn't "surviving the raid" that made them heroes. It was burying their dead and getting to work on defeating the evil that killed them, often at the risk of their own lives.

We seem to live in the age of faux outrage.

Both sides of the aisle.

Two days late, but I can't agree more!!!!!

This is why we became the USSA. The conservatives who should know better, prattle on and on about this stuff and the Duck Dynasty guy and what some girlyman said on ESPN. Meanwhile, the TSA is raping us, cops are breaking down our doors and shooting our dogs, our daughters' webcams are being turned on without their knowledge, and no one cares. And I'm not just talking about some crabby old FReeper who can't take a joke. I mean, National Review, talk radio, FNC. We've lost our liberty while feigning outrage over jokes.
