Tina Fey is my hero.

[joshcryer]

That is all.

[GodlessBiker]

1. She is for you and white women over 80, too.

She actually is very talented.

[mitchum]

2. Then you need to check out Michael O'Donoghue, Lenny Bruce, Mort Sahl

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

4. Tina could sit at the table with those guys.

:kick:

[mitchum]

9. Sit at the table? She'd be lucky to refill their fucking water glasses

sorry, but that's just the cold hard truth

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

20. Well, it's true, that's pretty much how they looked at women.

She's one who might have been able to hang, but wtf do I know? I'm a woman filling water glasses.

[mitchum]

30. Unless she's writing jokes with her vagina...

I really don't see how her gender has any bearing on whether she is funny or unfunny.
Also, there is a longtime DU-er who may want to educate you as to just how O'Donoghue looked at women. Oh, how I hope she sees this thread...

[Pab Sungenis]

40. True.

Now Anne Beates, there was a woman who could hold her own against Mr. Mike O'Donohue.

Woman has nothing to do with it. Funny has everything. Tina is amusing, but not too terribly funny by objective standards.

[mitchum]

43. Absolutely...Beatts could, and did, hold her own against O'Donoghue

"Woman has nothing to do with it. Funny has everything"
Yes, the appreciation should have nothing to do with a misguided sense of identity solidarity. Funny is all.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

44. Since it took over 25 years for one woman to be the head writer, even though we're the majority

population, I'll give her props. Those are some mondo obstacles.

[mitchum]

46. Great...she got to jockey a dead horse

You go girl!

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

47. Might I draw the conclusion that you don't care for her?

[mitchum]

49. She's medium funny

Granted, funnier than your average morning drive time DJ, but still...

[LBJDemocrat]

3. I don't find her funny

Very heavy-handed.

[mitchum]

12. But...but...but...in the land of the blind, the one-eyed woman is queen

Obviously, I agree with you

[LostinVA]

5. A sharp, funny Wahoo

And, kinda cute and hot, too!

[Starbucks Anarchist]

8. Damn straight.

So to speak. ;)

[LostinVA]

13. We can share her

[Starbucks Anarchist]

14. At the same time?

:evilgrin:

[LostinVA]

19. Haruka just said "no" -- she and I will

And no, you can't have photos.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

23. You people ruin all the fun.

:hide: :P

[LostinVA]

31. Go get Rachael to fry your doughnuts

[Starbucks Anarchist]

33. She'll also prepare food.

:evilgrin:

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

6. First female headwriter at SNL. Molly Shannon, Sherri O'terri and Anna Gasteyer.

Took it to a whole other level. :applause:

P.S. Will Ferrell benfitted greatly. And, he was the perfect foil, love him. :loveya:

[TexasObserver]

7. Tina Fey is funny, and always has been. Awesome writer and comedienne. Love 30 Rock.

I don't watch 30 Rock on TV, but have watched it on DVD several times.

I don't care whether she's behind Hillary or not.

[jefferson_dem]

10. Too much weed.

n/t

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

15. Yeh, that must account for all her failures?

:rofl:

[GarbagemanLB]

11. She's funny, but she isn't supporting the most progressive candidate.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

16. I think she's funny, too. :-)

And her politics are liberal. :toast:

[Beregond2]

17. Support...

Well, let's see...she admitted that a vote for Hillary would be a vote for Bill too...she said that Hillary is a bitch, and that having her as President would be as pleasant as being taught by an angry nun...this is support?

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

22. I'm really sorry about your sense of humor. This thread rocks!

:headbang:

[GarbagemanLB]

24. I don't understand how you could see her rant as anything other than support...

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

28. At least we're both Democrats.

:pals:

[bunnies]

18. Cuz the TV told me it was cool to call Hillary a Bitch!!!!

yippee!

I heart irony.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

25. Is it the fly in your chardonnay?

:shrug:

[bunnies]

39. Merlot and No. nt

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

41. But, you heart irony.

The currency of choice here.:shrug:

[LostinVA]

51. Maybe he has 10,000 spoons and only needs a knife

[SoxFan]

21. Tina Fey can kiss my hairy irish ass

That is all

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

26. Disgusting and alert.

[durrrty libby]

29. He meant she could kick his dumb ass.

[Maddy McCall]

34. She probably could. I'd put my money on her.

:rofl:

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

36. Ah, Aristocratianese. Nice.

:eyes:

[SoxFan]

35. Alert?

Wow, you guys are a bit sensitive. Care to tell me what rule I violated?

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

38. You have just a tiny bit of hostility toward a famous woman who doesn't seem to warrant such rage.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

27. K & R, josh. How revealing is

THIS thread?

[DemGa]

32. Mine too -- I admire her insight -- she thinks like me.....nt

[bajamary]

37. Fabulous Tina

Tina is fabulous and much fun. I loved her "Bitch is the new black" routine.

Second City rocks.

I saw "Between Barak and a Hard Place" on the main stage at Second City months ago.

Too bad may Duers would be offended by the satire of Obama and of Hillary. I loved their take on the Queen aka Oprah.

Get some humor folks.

Go Tina, Go

[Major Hogwash]

42. She's the Carol Brunette of our generation!!

She's the funniest comedian out there today.

[sueragingroz]

45. I agree

Mean Girls.

Brilliant.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

48. Amazing thread. Kick!

:kick:

[AGirl]

50. k and r

[EndElectoral]

Is she your hero for calling HRC a bitch?

[Major Hogwash]

53. Tina Fey is a comedian - it was a joke.

That went right over your head.
