Louis C.K. Out - Correspondents' Dinner

According to his rep, Louis C.K. won't be "entertaining" at the Radio & Television Correspondents' Association dinner in Washington on June 8, because he "just didn't want to do it anymore."

Now that's funny!

Louis C.K. has said horrible, vicious things about women, particularly Sarah Palin.

As bad as David Letterman has been regarding his creepy obsession with Sarah Palin and his constant insults hurled at her, using terms like "slutty," Louis C.K. tops Letterman in terms of utter vileness.

How could the Democrats and Obama embrace him?

It's obvious that Louis C.K. was asked not to be the host at the dinner or it was a mutual decision that attending would be awkward.

Obama and the Democrats' "War on Women" strategy would fall apart if they were seen laughing it up at someone like Louis C.K. with his disgusting history of disrespecting women.

From the New York Times:

No further explanation for Louis C.K.’s cancellation was given by his press agent, but the announcement comes one day after the conservative Fox News commentator Greta Van Susteren called for a boycott of the event.

On her blog on Thursday, Ms. Van Susteren criticized the comedian for jokes that he had made about Sarah Palin, saying “he denigrates all women and looks to the crowd for laughs.”

Ms. Van Susteren wrote on her blog: “Another pig…. and a media association has hired the pig, Louis C.K., to be their headliner for the big media dinner? Really? I am not going. I refuse to go. Everyone in the media should join me in this boycott.”

She added: “The headliner of this year’s Radio and Television Correspondents Dinner is ‘comedian’ Louis C.K. Comedian? I don’t think so. Pig? Yes.”

The blog post went on to cite R-rated comments that Louis C.K. had made about Mrs. Palin, many of them appearing to come from posts made in September 2010 on his Twitter feed.

Way to go, Greta.

If there is a "War on Women" in this country, Louis C.K. and those of his ilk are the enemy. And the Leftists who laugh at their "comedy" are complicit in the attacks.

I wonder who will replace Louis C.K. at the dinner. It's not going to be easy to find a comedian who hasn't said despicable things about Sarah Palin and other women.

Maybe Larry the Cable Guy or Jeff Foxworthy.
