CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Yes, though I'm not sure what would actually make her happy enough to smile. She seems rather dour. Did she smile in those photographs with Epstein?
I'm not interested in your religious patter.

Comedian Kathy Griffin posted a photo of herself holding up a Donald Trump mask made to look like a severed head. That was May 2017. And since then, she's been blacklisted. But now, Kathy Griffin is trying a comeback. NPR's Sam Sanders has the story.
It was a photo that started all her troubles.

You sorta did when you said:
"Agreed. He's reading a script someone wrote for him to parrot their personal thoughts."
He's telling jokes in a monologue that is a collaborative effort and for which he has final say.
There are some women, sad to say, who are or would be happier as widows - thus the husband killers. I don't think Melania is one of them as she gets benefits as his wife, but she hasn't lived with him in years. She gets paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to appear with him but she doesn't show up his trials or hospitalizations.
You're mistaken - Griffith was cancelled because she held up a mask of Donald Trump covered in ketchup in a photo shoot. It was not part of a skit. Maybe she subsequently recreated the moment in a skit, I don't know, but can you provide any evidence of it?

The comedian said she went "way too far" in posing with a model of the president's head covered in blood. CNN announced Wednesday it was cutting her from its New Year's Eve coverage.

No, I did not sorta do that.
Thank you for proving my prior point.
I said he's parroting something someone wrote for him to say,and you stated he's telling jokes in a monologue that is a collaborative (someone wrote it for him) effort .
Of course he has final say. His name is on the show.
Speculation.
I'm not mistaken. You're arguing for the sake of arguing.
I said she was cancelled for the offensive implication of Trump's beheading, to synopsize my words and put a finer point on her actions. And you state she was fired for the same thing.
But you call it a photoshoot.
It could have been both.
However,what was broadcast was a video,a short piece,skit,of the offense.
No,I would never post the video of that obscenity. Watching it when it was initially broadcast was enough.

Regardless of my feelings for Trump, that's pretty disgusting.

As they say, two wrongs don't make a right. What Trump said was awful, and I expect no apology from him.
I doubt Kimmel will be fired nor apologize.
It is what it is.

No, two wrongs don’t make a right but the First Lady should maybe take a good look at the man standing next to her before she goes wagging her finger at anyone else for saying things she find inappropriate. I’ve heard not a peep out of her when her husband insulted the Pope just a couple weeks ago so she can obviously stay quiet when she wants to.

Trump is 79 and I highly doubt he's in the greatest health. Who knows how much longer he has on earth?
It's up to God whenever God calls him home.

Pure Republican pearl clutching.
Never mind when Trump mocks veterans, or quipped after their deaths that Colin Powell was a "RINO" or that John Dingell was "looking up" from hell....

REALLY makes one wonder about Trump's cognitive health. Is he worsening or has he always been that way?

You're right, it was not sorta.
Do you know what "parroting" means? Do you know what "collaborative" "with" not "for" means? I ask because it seems as if you do not. I can explain if you like.
Well then, that eliminates the "parroting" what "someone wrote it for him." He obviously participated in the writing and he obviously understands what he is saying. And the jokes are not the writer's "personal thoughts" but jokes crafted for the show.
His name being on the show would indicate but not guarantee that.
No, it's documented that more than a few women prefer their lives as widows and that some took steps to ensure their state.
I've pointed out the mistakes.
No, you are.
We both agree that she was cancelled because she was photographed holding a Trump mask covered in ketchup. It was not part of a skit. If you think it was broadcast as part of a skit then provide evidence of that. I have given contrary evidence, you have given your own say-so.
It is not necessary to post a video, as a contemporaneous article about it would do. Something more than "this is how I remember something that happened almost a decade ago". I may be projecting here because I quite often find that when I look up something I "remember" it just isn't what I thought.

I know. It was ,I did not say that. And always shall be.
You would need educate yourself before presuming to think to teach others.
We're done.
Argumentative personalities are not nourishing my spirit.

The wonderful thing about message boards is that the posts are still there for perusal by everyone.
I do educate myself, constantly, although it doesn't always take.
Royal we? Interesting tactic to flounce when asked for evidence. Interesting but not very convincing.
Accusation in a mirror.

His father did have Alzheimer’s as we all know. Both of his parents died relatively old, so maybe he has significant time left? Relative to his age. Not diagnosing obviously, just observing.
Regardless. My prayers are with him.
