Clinton Goes after Laugh Factory Comedians for Making Fun of Her
Judicial Watch ^ | 11-18-2015JD | JD

Posted on 11/18/2015 9:38:37 PM PST by tcrlaf

In what appears to be a first for a serious presidential contender, Hillary Clinton’s campaign is going after five comedians who made fun of the former Secretary of State in standup skits at a popular Hollywood comedy club.

A video of the short performance, which is less than three minutes, is posted on the website of the renowned club, Laugh Factory, and the Clinton campaign has tried to censor it. Besides demanding that the video be taken down, the Clinton campaign has demanded the personal contact information of the performers that appear in the recording. This is no laughing matter for club owner Jamie Masada, a comedy guru who opened Laugh Factory more than three decades ago and has been instrumental in launching the careers of many famous comics. “They threatened me,” Masada told Judicial Watch. “I have received complains before but never a call like this, threatening to put me out of business if I don’t cut the video.”

This one got over 100,000 views - over 55,000 views just from this link:

I like to think that this image made her and the left shut up about the "War on Women":

The Alinskiites HATE ridicule - it's their weapon of choice - they cannot stand it when it is pointed in their direction.

I was going to say... apparently the comedians hit a raw nerve. Very telling. By trying to silence them; the killary operatives have made it an international story.

Had they just kept quiet about it; no one other than the few who were there or watched the video would have even seen it. It will have everyone wondering what nerve, exactly, has been touched.

Did someone in the killary campaign just make sure she loses the election and make sure we have a Trump or Cruz win? Time will tell I guess...

Masada should respond by having a special night inviting all the comic headliners who have appeared in his club to come and defend the 1st Amendment in a Hillary Gag Fest Free For All night.

Then open a Youtube account under the alias “Nakoula” and post the best clips there.

This is free publicity for the Laugh Factory. They don’t care about Hillary.

What you describe is some very clever triangulation.
It’s possible Valerie is behind this seemingly clumsy and heavyhanded reaction. Still, it wouldn’t shock me to learn Hillary really does feel threatened by a few little jokes. Jokes that would have gone largely unnoticed with this North Korean attitude.

Remember when Hillary’s campaign published the list of words and phrases that journalists were NOT allowed to use to describe her? The two stories are consistent.

Hillary is a student of Saul Alinsky who taught the power in ridiculing your enemies. Democrats had their best friends in those dual retards Colbet and John Stewart. So no mystery here that the HilaryBeast will try to kill all comedy that works against her

When Bill was in office many considered that those that died that were near the Clintons committed Arkicide. Looks like that is going to start happening again before she is even elected.
