Margaret Cho v. Bristol Palin in War of Words: Palin Invokes Prejudicial Lesbian Humor

The online pas de deux between Margaret Cho and Bristol Palin is getting a little nasty. Responding to a recent dig from Margaret Cho, Bristol Palin, dragging lesbians into their feud, fired back at her Dancing With the Stars colleague via a Saturday Facebook post, writing that if the Asian-American comic had a grasp on conservative politics, "she would embrace us faster than KD Lang at an Indigo Girls concert.

The online pas de deux between Margaret Cho and Bristol Palin is getting a little nasty.

Responding to a recent dig from Margaret Cho, Bristol Palin fired back at her Dancing With the Stars colleague via a Saturday Facebook post, writing that if the Asian-American comic had a grasp on conservative politics, "she would embrace us faster than KD Lang at an Indigo Girls concert."

Palin's post follows a blog entry last week by Cho, who wrote that Palin's appearance on the show was the result of pressure from her mother, potential 2012 Republican presidential candidate Sarah Palin. "Instead of being supposedly 'handicapped' by the presence of her teen mom daughter, now Bristol is going to be an 'asset,'" Chowrote. 

Bristol Palin's reply? "You say you 'don't agree with the family's politics at all' but I say, if you understood that commonsense conservative values supports the right of individuals like you, like all of us, to live our lives with less government interference and more independence, you would embrace us faster than KD Lang at an Indigo Girls concert."

While we commend Bristol on her attempt at humor, albeit based in prejudice, she really should update her lesbian references. Perhaps she could say, "embrace us faster than Jane Lynch at a Tegan and Sara concert?"
