Is she like a "Colbert" for the other side? She seems like a parody of the "ditzy liberal"???

10. You don't speak for me -- and I'm a blonde. |
|
I don't think she's ditzy at all - I think she's sharp and informed and delivering it in a tongue in cheek manner. I think the butt of the joke is our administration and the goings on -- not her.
So perhaps insults are in the eye of the beholder. :shrug:

18. I've just lost 3 minutes and 41 seconds of my life... |
|
that I will never get back.
In all fairness, this is the first time I have ever watched/listened to this woman. Maybe some of her other material is good... don't know, this piece is all I am basing my limited opinion of her commentary on. So rather than telling me sitting here telling you what I think of her as a stereotypical spokesperson for any distinction of people on this planet, I'll sum up what her job is and how well she does it.
She read a few headlines in the news and tried to perform a poor satire of the parties involved. As for "ditzy," she is obviously "in character"... the same style of character that has been re-hashed so many times over the past two decades that the status quo for news is that the audience must now be entertained into understanding the news.
To say that this lady is "sharp and informed" on current events is an overstatement, to say the least. Anyone can read a headline and make a joke about it. She has a very superficial understanding of supreme court rulings, world events and the fact that understanding a 4 billion year old event of interstellar relationships do play a role in understanding how the universe works.
If her job is to report the news, she isn't doing it very well in 4 minutes. If her job is to be a comedian, she's not very funny (in my opinion). If her job is to somehow merge these two jobs into one... it's been done too many times prior to her attempts, and done better.

23. unless you type really quickly you wasted a whole lot more than that... |
|
matter of fact- it probably took you at least TWICE that to write your critique of this womans work.
coming to a total of up to 20 minutes of your "life" that you'll never get back- two-thirds of which you are solely responsible for wasting.
i enjoy Martas work.
now go away and shit on someone elses parade.

Edited on Sat Jun-28-08 08:57 PM by ChromeFoundry
to be a waste of my time. If five people read my critique of this garbage, I have given 20 minutes of productivity back to the betterment of society.
This is a free country. You are entitled to enjoy whatever it is that makes you happy. Some people are just not comfortable in attempting to seek out frontal lobe stimulus, I've read about this syndrome and it's not totally incurable.
My comment was not to shit on your parade of three people, it was meant to serve as a the seat protector for others to not waste their time on this garbage.

7. She gives blondes a bad name..... |
|
Reminds me of a "Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion" skit. What a dumb-ass.
This is a joke, right? :wow:

11. If only half the people I know -- blond or not -- were as informed and |
|
aware as she is, the world would be in a better place.
SHE doesn't give blondes a bad name -- YOU'RE the one lumping her into that "blonde" box.

16. The disclaimer you should add is |
|
"to me".
We all interpret things differently, through our own filters. Which is why I mentioned in my OP that this was for gnooze fans -- I understand a lot of people don't care for it. But some of us do.
