Holy crap – what about Kathy Griffin?! See her standup on doing the red carpet and tell me she doesn’t nail Gwyneth Paltrow dead on.

Can we ban anyone who voted for Wanda Sykes from ever voting or commenting on this site again? Please?

I used to think all female comics were boring until I saw Lisa Lampanelli live. She has a gift.

As with all voting schemes, any poll which omits “NONE OF THE ABOVE” as a choice is invalid.

Marty –

Lucille Ball doesn’t qualify because she’s not alive.

Lucille Ball’s not on the list? Roseanne? Bette Midler? Janeane Garo-falo? Whoopi?

On this poll, I like Amy Poehler, though.

UCB, season, 1, diary sketch. Comedy gold.

Apparently there are only about 25 other people reading this blog who are old enough to have regularly watched Carol Burnett. IMO, there’s no contest between her and anyone else on this poll, save perhaps Lily Tomlin… No one else has ever made me dash for the bathroom lest I pee my pants, except Carol Burnett.

Amy Poehler just because of UCB.

Did you create this poll because of the “Christopher Hitchens vs. every female comic” spat from Vanity Fair?

To truly appreciate Amy Poehler you should really check out Comedy Central’s Upright Citizen’s Brigade series on DVD.

People actually voted for Lampanelli?

I thought this poll was for “FUNNIEST” Woman alive?

Coincidentally, just last night I had a dream involving Ms. Silverman. Also coincidentally, it was time to change the sheets anyway.

People, come on. Amy Poehler is the funniest woman ever! Ok that’s just my opinion and this is so subjective, but I’m basically madly in love with Ms. Poehler simply because I find her to be so frickin’ hilarious. Tina Fey and Sarah Silverman are also pretty funny, but it’s not the same.

Check out the Walken Family reunion skit on SNL, that would be my exhibit A.

Fey’s the best writer, Poehler’s the best performer, and Silverman is probably the best at doing both really well.

Lisa Lampanelli is a cheap knock–off of Andrew Dice Clay, who himself was a one-trick obscenity pony– without the timing.
