Bernhard Banned for Palin "Gang-Rape" Gag

Unlike Sandra Bernhard, not everyone thinks joking about gang-rape is high-larious.

The bigmouthed Bernhard just got axed from a benefit for a women's shelter because of her now-infamous "joke" that veep-seeker Sarah Palin would get "gang-raped by my big black brothers" when she came to NYC. "In light of our mission, we don't think violence against women is a laughing matter," says the PR rep of Rosie's Place.

Saucy Sandy's rep didn't immediately comment on the situation.

7. It's not funny!
She's just another loud-mouthed ignorant and opinionated "comedienne"
who thinks she can say anything...and that people really care what they think.
Rosie, Whoopie, Roseann, Sandra...they should all be gagged and STFU!

8. God Sandra, what a stupid thing to say. People don't need to lighten up so much that a joke about gang-rape is funny. It's not clever or amusing, it's just trash.

11. She makes me physically ill, to listen to her, to look at her. How this woman EVER got/had a career is beyond me. There is no accounting for taste.

12. sherry-
i don't know if the organization was necessarily "offended," but when you have a group thats purpose is to take a stand against violence towards women, it really doesn't help the cause to have someone like bernhard representing said group. i mean, people make jokes, we have freedom of speech, all that good stuff, but this foundation would've made a big mistake had they kept this crazy woman on board.

13. What a trash mouth. To those who think people need to lighten up on garbage passed off as comedy - grow up.
