Oh c'mon, guys, you know that the radio DJ biz is a lot like pro wrestling--it's all about the ratings and these stations LOVE the "shock jocks". The DJ's know the score, too. Getting fired for saying something on the air is akin to getting a promotion in the world of radio.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

For the record: She is fat and she is a lesbian

Yeah...what's up with that? One musn't speak the truth when a microphone is involved? Gimme a break.

This could be fun. Anyone want to do Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Rosie?

[Disturbin]

Separated at Birth?

[Ditto]

“I think he was indeed being nasty. It’s not news to anybody that I’m a lesbian. This is supposed to be about an election, not name-calling,” said Ross, who was on DePetro’s show only once briefly.

So what did he get fired for --- calling her fat?

So I take it this would be the unfortunate lady that Dean "Soxblog" Barnett described on Hugh Hewitt's blog as having a gap between her front teeth that strongly resembles Leon Spinks'?

Does the fat lesbian have only one outfit in her wardrobe? Are all these pics from the same day?

[Cheapskate]

Great googily mooglies! Is that Ms. Grace and her running mate?

[stompk]

for the second time in as many days, I will say

"proving again that feelings are more important than the truth"

For the record: She is fat...

She probably eats out too often.

[Cheapskate]

Damn Ted, put some clothes on!! A nobody wants to see that __ __ it

B;You're as orange as those pylons!!!!

The last I heard, scotch doesen't protect you from skin cancer.

She also states that her income is a little over $20K. I guess a Harvard education isn't what it used to be. But seriously, the Gays are really flexing their muscles this week. They got JD canned and they have come out and stated that they own the legislature. Read the open letter to the MA Legislature in Bay Windows.

[Cheapskate]

The elphant has a bigger johnson, or if you're inclined, trunk?

[top 2 toe red]

She probably eats out too often.

Uh oh...I see another McDonald's lawsuit in the making.

[muleskinner]

Could it be?...

I heard this on his show yesterday. It sounded harsh when he said it, but I didn't think it would be somehting to get the guy canned. Maybe he should have said, "overweight lesbian"?
