Wisconsin: Rightwing Radio Host Takes Break from Defending Roggensack to Tell Racist, Sexist Joke

http://uppitywis.org/blogarticle/rightwing-radio-host-takes-break-defending-roggensack-tell-racis


Yesterday Wisconsin's King O' Comedy and right wing talk show host, Jerry Bader, told a knee-slapper for the ages. In the midst of a rant about how Cheif Justice Shirley Abrahamson keeps "digging up dirt" on Justice Patience Roggensack and how she must be up to no good because she only responds to reporters' questions via email, (or like a chess-player trying avoid making a mistake), Bader told this racist/sexist two-fer joke and then let out a hardy belly-laugh, because it was just that funny:

"How is chess like real life? It's better to be white and there's only one woman in the room and she get's to do whatever she wants. (belly laughs)."


Yes, in our double-standard dystopian workplaces, the ladies aren't saddled-down with the same rules as the Y-chromosome impaired menfolk.

...

And, "It's better to be white"? --that part of the "joke" reminds of the Saturday Night Live skit where Eddie Murphy dresses up like a white guy and gets a look at what white people really think and do when black people aren't around. I guess someone forgot to invite Jerry to the Republican seminar on how to successfully communitcate "with Minorities and Women."

but he sure sounds like a right-wing jerk. I wonder if he got much negative feedback for that pathetic joke?
