Kimmel on Lack of Weinstein Jokes: Look, I'm Not the Country's Moral Conscience, Okay?

Alternate headline: "America's Pope Abdicates."  

Well, you could have fooled us, Jim.  It really seemed like you were supremely comfortable with serving as the country's self-appointed moral conscience as you agitated against Obamacare repeal (having admitted to never meeting any of the millions who've been harmed by the law) by literally reading Democratic talking points -- all to great media acclaim.  And you appeared mighty fine with scolding Republicans on gun control, smearing Second Amendment advocates as somehow complicit in the Las Vegas massacre.  Given this sobering, complicating reality check from Dianne Feinstein, I was half expecting you to primary her from the left out there in California.  But what's this?  Are you suddenly surrendering your mantle as High Priest of Moral Rectitude and Wokeness all because you're hesitant to go nuclear on your buddy whose grubby fingerprints are all over the industry in which you make your lavish living (and also unwilling women's bodies)?

But hey, don't look at me, Kimmel says.  Clown nose, on:


Got it.  The whole "truth to power" thing is only exhilarating when the "right" sort of people are in your crosshairs.  The other angle here is perhaps Kimmel knows there more where this came from:


Daniel Foster jokes (I think?), "when will the Juggies speak out?"  I'll leave you with one of Kimmel's actually amusing bits -- slightly funnier than "call your Senator!" hectoring -- in which his crew adds needless but entertaining censorship to media clips.  This installment features yours truly:
