Tom Hanks once said "Theres no crying in baseball!"
I thought there was also no crying in lesbianism?

Well, that was a good response. But Ellen, if it makes the people in your audience uncomfortable, best to leave those strong emotions behind the curtain... and camera.

Yeah, Ellen is ok to cry, I cried over my dog of 18 years when he died. Ellen, do it at home in privacy.

Ellen makes me want to cry every time she tries to tell a joke. I'm glad that its okay.

She is probably a nice person. She just isn't funny.

Ellen is in the land of Oprah now; hyper narcissistic/spin overdrive. She broke a contract with an adoption agency because...the rules don't apply to Ellen? Because she's cute and folksy? because she's a celebrity? and then to make it worse she threatens the agency along with her zombie fans. Seems to be the zeitgeist with lawbreaking the norm in Bush's America.

Ellen.......give it a break, enough is enough already!

The agreement that I made and broke is now coming back to bite me on the ass because I made gifts and promises to people that I shouldn't have made and had no right to make so I look foolish to my friends and their children who miraculously got attached to the puppy almost instantly and we all know that that was the only dog in the world that those kids wanted. God only knows what that mean agency will do to that poor little creature, after all they were insane enough to give it to me. I can't cope, I can't cope....whaaaaaa.

DemsRnuts...bite me.

Anyway...I think Ellen handled her meltdown pretty well, poking fun at herself. Who of us hasn't done something in an emotional time that you look back on and wish you'd handled differently. I'm glad that she took some time to get some perspective on IggyGate and got a grip.

In this hour of crisis, the official Socks the Cat Fan Club sent an inquiry to its namesake"s most stalwart champion. Hillary"s Senate office replied with a note"at once chilly and patronizing" suggesting, more or less, that they butt out.

Who?

George hw bush cried giving a speech about jeb. Michael Jordan cried after winning his first nba title. Anderson Cooper cried while interviewing a senator over katrina. AppareNtly it's ok for men to cry but if a woman does it shes "overly emotional".

I never thought she was funny.

I'm amazed! When I began to read the comments I find there is someone talking about Hillary and Chelsea. Oh my God, why is it always necessary to connect the Clintons with any problem of any kind? Well, Bill Clinton...Well, Hillary...gimme a break!

Now, fact is, I love Ellen and if she wants to cry, it's okay with me. I just think she is so damn funny and I'll tell you what! In this crappy world today, I enjoy a little humor. Ellen can take on the animal rescue places, she'll do what she needs to do. I am just not going to find any fault with her! And, that's it! I won't! And, I'd like you all not to pick on her. Leave her alone. If you want to pick on somebody, pick on Bush, Cheney, or, hey, pick a republican, I don't care.

I think Ellen is a terrific entertainer and yes, it's okay to cry. It's okay to read a contract before signing it and keep your agreements too.

It's so sad to see so many people that want to change the rules, don't want to be held accountable and think they're above the law. I don't care if you're rich, poor or an elected official, we have rules for a reason.

She's not Paris or Britany but still, I'm very disappointed to see Ellen has a touch of that kind of behavior.

WHAT is going on in this country??? This sort of behavior seems to be everywhere. I must be getting old. I don't remember it ever being THIS bad.

Oh. I just remembered, The Fish Rots From The Head.

Just one more example of why it's important to IMPEACH! Cheney, then Bush, etc.
I just don't get it.

AS THE "first pet" of the Clinton era, Socks, the White House cat, allowed "chilly" Hillary Clinton to show a caring, maternal side as well as bringing joy to her daughter Chelsea. So where is Socks today?

Once the presidency was over, there was no room for Socks any more. After years of loyal service at the White House, the black and white cat was dumped on Betty Currie, Bill Clinton"s personal secretary, who also had an embarrassing clean-up role in the saga of his relationship with the intern Monica Lewinsky.
