Responding to Alabama GOP Senate candidate Roy Moore's challenge to come to Alabama to mock his Christian values, television host Jimmy Kimmel told Moore to "get some Christian values." The Senate hopeful had challenged Kimmel after comedian Rich Barbieri disrupted a church service while Moore was speaking.
"Sounds great — let me know when you get some Christian values and I'll be there!" Kimmel tweeted Thursday, responding to Moore's tweet, which read, "@jimmykimmel If you want to mock our Christian values, come down here to Alabama and do it man to man."
On Wednesday, Barbieri, who has earlier appeared as the character "Jake Byrd" on Kimmel's show, disrupted a service at the Magnolia Springs Baptist Church, where Moore was speaking.
After the incident, Kimmel wrote on Twitter, "Jake Byrd heckles Roy Moore: Jimmy Kimmel comedian crashes Alabama church rally."
"Jimmy Kimmel and the 'Hollywood elite' cross the line when they invade our churches under a disguise and attempt to make a mockery of our worship services," Drew Messer, a senior adviser to Moore, told Breitbart News.
"If Kimmel wants to mock our Christian values, he should come down here and do it man to man instead of hiding behind a camera in Hollywood," Messer added. "And yes, Jimmy, we will still rebuild our military, build the wall, protect our gun rights, reform our tax code, and support President Trump whether you like that or not. Hollywood will not bully us around."
Last month, a woman named Leigh Corfman accused Moore of initiating sexual encounters with her when she was 14. Three other women came forward, alleging Moore attempted to date them when they were between the ages of 16 and 18 and he was in his early 30s, though they clarified that he did not force them into any sort of sexual contact, and courting at that age was not illegal.
Also, an Alabama resident, Beverly Young Nelson, alleged that Moore groped her and tried to force her to perform oral sex when she was just 16.
Later, several other women made similar accusations. Moore has denied the allegations.
Alabama is expected to hold a special election on Dec. 12 to fill the Senate seat vacated by Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
Moore also tweeted to Kimmel, saying, "Despite D.C. and Hollywood Elites' bigotry toward southerners, Jimmy, we'll save you a seat on the front pew."
Kimmel responded, "OK Roy, but I'm leaving my daughters at home! P.S. — wear that cute little leather vest."
Meanwhile, The Daily Caller posted a video about Kimmel, as part of his role on "The Man Show," putting an object in his pants and encouraging women on the street to feel around for it. He asked one woman if she was of age, because she looked to be underage, as he asked her to touch him. Kimmel then asked another woman to perform a sex act on him, as part of his skit.
The Caller earlier reported on Kimmel once doing a skit in which co-host Adam Carolla encouraged women to jump on a trampoline for the pleasure of a male crowd. Women jumping on a trampoline wearing only lingerie or bikinis was also seen at the end of every episode of the "Man Show."
A senior Moore adviser, Brett Doster, criticized Kimmel. "For years, Kimmel hosted a show that exploited women and encouraged sexual impropriety," Foster was quoted as saying. "He and the rest of the entertainment industry look down their noses at our evangelical values while using their own pulpit to encourage the very behavior purveyed by monsters like Harvey Weinstein and Kevin Spacey."
I love these hypocrites, people like Jimmy will tell us to keep our Christians values to ourselves, then tells us to follow our Christian values——well, which is it?
He’s fighting Colbear for the unemployed communist millennial insomniac demographic. Targeting a wide audience is so passe.
One of the greatest compliments any CHRISTian can get is to have a servant of satan criticizes him.
It is the old “I am a democrat with ZERO standards and if you say you are a Christian and I find ONE thing wrong with you I can mock you for being a hypocrite” liberal argument.
#1 The only “Christian” that lived a sin free life was Jesus Christ
#2 Trying to become a better person by becoming a Christian is about the best thing you can do for yourself. But to liberals/progressive, having no standards and NOT trying to improve yourself is a GOOD THING.
That is why theu are morally corrupt and intellectually bankrupt.
These are the same people who pushed for homosexual rights by saying "Get out of my bedroom" and then preceded to change the definition of marriage, infiltrate the Boy Scouts, and demand that all public parades feature strong homosexual contingents.
Does he mean like “judge not lest ye be judged”?
True. I wonder how any of these late night shows have an audience. NONE have been funny or even moderately interesting for decades.
It’s unbelievable. American Beauty, a film starring Kevin Spacey as a middle-aged guy who fantasizes about (and almost has) sex with a teenage high-school cheerleader, won an Academy Award for “Best Film”. The film received widespread acclaim and approval from the Hollywood/entertainment industry crowd - also winning a Golden Globe.
Now, Kimmel - who emcees the Academy Awards, comes out to criticize Moore about events that are unverified from 40 years ago - principally about how Moore was interested in high school girls. The hypocrisy is astounding, even by Hollywood standards.
Progressive media's cheap attempts to utilize Alinsky are apparent if one looks for them.
RE: criticize Moore about events that are unverified from 40 years ago - principally about how Moore was interested in high school girls
OK, Roughly 30 states in the USA have age of consent at 16 or 17 In my state, it is 17 ).
If dating AGE-OF-CONSENT high school girls with the consent of their parents is a crime, why don’t we INCREASE the legal age of consent?
If it is not a crime, exactly what did Roy Moore do ( in the case of 3 of the girls ) that was wrong?
Lucifer’s minions are manifold.
Wow, sex fiend Kimmel (as seen on TV) lecturing Christians on their values.
I like how TCM shows vintage Johnny Carson interviews with Hollywood stars from the 1970s and 1980s. One that was showed was one with Angie Dickinson from about 1980 or 81, and even in a casual jeans and sweater outfit, she was still a knockout. Nowadays, late night TV is worthless leftist trash.
As an aside, I think the age-of-consent should be raised.
“The United States had become a place where entertainers and professional athletes were mistaken for people of importance!” (please read the date this was published)
“But there seems to have been an actual decline in rational thinking. The United States had become a place where entertainers and professional athletes were mistaken for people of importance. They were idolized and treated as leaders; their opinions were sought on everything and they took themselves just as seriously — after all, if an athlete is paid a million or more a year, he knows he is important… so his opinions of foreign affairs and domestic policies must be important, too, even though he proves himself to be both ignorant and subliterate every time he opens his mouth. (Most of his fans were just as ignorant and unlettered; the disease was spreading.)”

May Kimmel join Olbermann below:
How was this pajama boy ever the host of something called “The Man Show”?
I heard Jimmy has an office door lock with a remote button under his desk just like Matt Lauer.
The world tells Jimmy Kimmel “Get Bent!”
