Pro-abort comedian and “Daily Show” co-creator Lizz Winstead is a real laugh riot. At least according to Lizz Winstead, who offered up this super-daring tweet about “anti-science” Sen. Marco Rubio:
BREAKING: Marco Rubio claims there is so scientific proof that science exists.

She’s so edgy, isn’t she?
.@lizzwinstead Finally. A comic brave enough to take on Republicans.

About as edgy as a melted marshmallow — and far less entertaining.
Just got back in cell range and whadya know? My feed is full of unfunny trolls telling me I'm not funny. #HowWillIGoOn

The truth hurts, dearie.

@exjon C'mon, cut @lizzwinstead a break. Not everybody can be Borowitz-level funny.

Unlike your sense of humor. RT @lizzwinstead BREAKING: Marco Rubio claims there is so scientific proof that science exists.

@lizzwinstead Pro-choice satirist who thinks a fetus isn't a life mocks politician for science fail.

Ouch.
you know if you can't think of anything funny, you're allowed to just write a declarative sentence, right? @Matthops82 @lizzwinstead

Could it get more painful than that? Hell yes, courtesy of inimitable Twitchy favorite Jon Gabriel. Gabriel stepped into the ring and delivered a series of glorious knockout punches. Winstead never stood a chance.
.@lizzwinstead I'm a bit of a wit myself. Let me share with you a few of my latest gags…<ahem> "Have you seen white people dance?" #ThankYou
— jon gabriel (@exjon) May 15, 2014
.@lizzwinstead You see, white people are poor dancers. They also need to check their privilege and denounce microagressions.
— jon gabriel (@exjon) May 15, 2014
.@lizzwinstead My next joke is all about *proper timing*. <ahem> “Sarah Palin. I’m all like (pause) REALLY? She’s unintelligent.” Thank you.
— jon gabriel (@exjon) May 15, 2014
.@lizzwinstead It feels so good to share my comedy stylings with a fellow comic. Thanks for the "rap session!" 🙂
— jon gabriel (@exjon) May 15, 2014
But the rap session wasn’t quite over yet. Gabriel had a few more swings to take:
.@lizzwinstead "A Mexican, Chinese guy & black guy walk into a bar.Paul Ryan was the only one who noticed their races because he's a bigot."
— jon gabriel (@exjon) May 15, 2014
.@lizzwinstead Of course, I would have preferred to use "Chicano/a" "Asian-American" & "Guy of Color" for that last one, but it didn't scan.
— jon gabriel (@exjon) May 15, 2014
.@lizzwinstead How many Polish-Americans does it take to screw in a lightbulb?One, but Ted Cruz wouldn't care if it was CFL or incandescent.
— jon gabriel (@exjon) May 15, 2014
.@lizzwinstead “What's the deal w/airline food? It is of poorer quality than what K0CH WH0RE$ have on private jets paid for by K0CHBROTHER$”
— jon gabriel (@exjon) May 15, 2014
.@lizzwinstead I'm just a lowly Twitter wag, but it's great to meet a Real Comic who understands the true purpose of comedy: Social Justice.
— jon gabriel (@exjon) May 15, 2014
Bravo, sir. Bravo.
(I used some of those awful jokes on a Pelosi thread years ago. #TwitchyIsForever)
— jon gabriel (@exjon) May 15, 2014
No matter. When comedy is done well, it never gets stale!
Get it, Lizz?
