Joan Rivers To President Obama: ‘Take Care Of The F**king Country!’
As the news that Osama bin Laden is dead begins to sink in, other, less weighty stories can begin to waft over, or wriggle under, that steel media curtain. The bin Laden story blotted out the usual post-White House Correspondents Dinner fluff, but in its cooling embers, we can now marvel at Joan Rivers‘ prime example of that sweetest of celebrity truffles, the pre-gamin’ red carpet political rant. The veteran comic (and former contestant on Donald Trump‘s Celebrity Apprentice) had some choice words when asked about President Obama, imploring him to “stop campaigning,” and “Take care of the f**king country!”
There’s not really much to analyze here, beyond the fact that Joan’s rant was captured by a reporter from CNS News, home of my pal Fred Lucas, and owned by Brent Bozell‘s Media Research Center. I give them points for consistency, bleeping Joan’s f-bomb even though they have no broadcast standards to adhere to.
It’s actually surprising that there aren’t more sloppy celeb rants popping up, post-Nerdprom, given the amount of open bar pre-and-post partying that went on. I, for one, am glad nobody stuck a camera in my face Saturday night.
For what it’s worth, Rivers does go on to widen her criticism to include “everyone.”
Here’s the clip, from CNS News:
