“Suck it Jesus” is Hot!
The whole Kathy Griffin saying “Suck it Jesus” at the Emmy Awards issue is so hot right now, within 24 hours of my posting a CNN video on YouTube (this is really really CNN’s video, but it is so absolutely awesome I had to post it on YouTube) the video got over 2,000 hits and 41 comments (yeah I got 41 emails today letting me know about the comments).
And here’s how that ranks against other YouTube videos:
#68 - Most Viewed (Today) - Comedy
#97 - Top Rated (Today) - Comedy
#58 - Most Discussed (Today) - Comedy
#58 - Top Favorites (Today) - Comedy
You’ve gotta check out the comments because they are awesome! You’ve got everything in there from “I never did like her. What a jerk. She’s blasphemous and obnoxious” to “Jesus had a sweat ass. I would rather do that then suck it. Better yet a three way with both Jesus and Mohamed,” and “OMG! Who cares if fucking catholics are offended? Just because someone has ’faith’ in an invisible deity, we are automatically supposed to give them respect? They deserve respect because they are irrational? Wake up to reality.”
And to support the fact that this topic was the hot topic of the week in the US, someone has already started (purchased domain and all) and set up the SuckItJesus.com website petition to stop censoring Griffin’s remarks at the Emmy awards.
Next we’re gonna have TShirts, Scary Movie 5 will put this line in their script (remember I predicted this on Sept. 14, 2007), and I might change the name of my blog to “Skepticum. Suck it Jesus!”
Ya gotta love free speech!

Just checked and it’s now up to 6878 views and 90 comments. Sheesh, Mana. That’s big time.
Good work.
wow! We are in the presence of a you-tube master. nice job, seriously
I can’t take credit for the video, CNN did an awesome job at NOT censoring this one and actually opening it for discussion.
If I can take praise for anything is my skills at finding things that others can’t find.
Also, it taught me another thing about YouTube–it’s where people go first. Who would have thought to search CNN for the video? But I’m sure a ton of people searched YouTube first.
