Comedian Kathy Griffin won an Emmy last year for her show "My Life On the D List."

Now she wants to win a Grammy for her first comedy CD, "For Your Consideration."

In fact, that's the only reason she recorded the album, which came out five days after Season 4 of "D List" debuted on the Bravo network in mid-June. Griffin flat-out says so in her opening remarks to the audience in Tracy, Calif., where the CD was recorded last February. And in the liner notes, she sends a thank-you letter to the Grammy voting committee "for nominating me and, of course, for my inevitable Grammy itself."

Frankly, she could get it.

"For Your Consideration" is Griffin at her sharpest, with all-new celebrity dishing and dissing starting with Barbara Walters. Griffin says the legendary journalist and "The View" host re-banned her from the show after Griffin publicly spilled the beans on the pair's conversation about K-Y Jelly.

And don't even get her started on Oprah. She loves the talk show diva, she really does, but why did Oprah, on her latest favorite-things giveaway show, bless the poor residents of Macon, Ga., with Ugg boots, pastries and refrigerators so big they'll have to demolish their kitchens?

"Why don't you just f---in' give them money?" Griffin mumbles under her breath. "I've been to Macon, Ga. It's a wonderful town. But do they really need $60 cupcakes from Williams-Sonoma?"

If you've seen Griffin in her recent Tucson concerts, you know that she is an equal-opportunity offender. She loves trash-talking about celebrities, and this album is ripe with new riffs, including confessing that the only reason she watched "Dancing With the Stars" in 2007 was to see Heather Mills lose her prosthetic leg.

Political correctness has never been her forte, and "For Your Consideration" takes her even farther down that slippery slope.

● She's not buying the Marie Osmond's "faint" during "Dancing With the Stars": "I'm calling bulls--- on the faint right now. . . . When you actually faint in real life, it's not graceful. It's not delicate. You do not go down in stages."

● Her mom, Maggie, is a cheapskate. "You want to hear where she gets her clothes? . . . She gets her clothes at the gift shop at the local Catholic halfway house. That's where the recovering junkies are supposed to get themselves on their feet and buy an outfit."

● Her now ex-boyfriend, Apple co-founder and billionaire Steve Wozniak: "He cofounded Apple Computers. He literally built the first personal computer in his garage. Then he built the Apple II. Then he invented the floppy disc drive. He wrote something called Basic, which I guess is a computer language; I don't know what that is. He invented the universal remote; finally something important."

Hey Grammy nominating committee, give this one a listen. We think it's definitely worth your consideration.
