Soooo, has Rita Cosby been fired yet?
Y'know, for calling the African-American vote "the hoodlum vote" while on Tweety's show on Friday.

1. No.
She said it whilst on the roundtable of losers discussion. In other words, the three people who were watching that show at the time didn't get outraged, so it didn't cause a stink.

8. They didn't get outraged, but the looks on their faces made them
appear like silly school boys.

6. She didn't accuse the US of targetting journalists in Iraq
So her job is safe.

7. We have a Rita Cosby alarm system in our home
The first person to hear her scratchy voice or see her ugly mug yells "Rita Cosby alert!" until whoever has the remote changes the channel.

9. Limbaugh dug himself a more shallow grave than Rita Cosby has.
Ru$h lost his short-lived ESPN sports commentator job for his comments regarding QB Donovan McNabb: "the sports media, being liberals just like liberal media is elsewhere, have a desire that black quarterbacks excel and do very well so that their claims that blacks are being denied opportunity can be validated." Actually, he resigned because of the resulting furor.

Rita, do the right thing. Buh-bye.

11. Nobody listens to her
or takes her seriously. She is like the last drunk at the party. Everybody avoids her.

12. Here's a link to the video, courtesy of Crooks&Liars.com:

Scarborough had that "she'll never work in this business again" look on his face. She's just been hanging around Hannity too long. It makes a person stupid.

17. I just watched it. Tucker looked pained, as well.
Scarborough looked as if he was covering his mouth to keep from laughing. What a nitwit. She even offends these two.:eyes:
