Jerry wouldn’t make peace with Dean Martin for a quarter of a century. You think he cares what a Gay Rights Group thinks?

"It also feeds a climate of hatred and intolerance"

How can you feed any more, to a people that are already full of it for you and your ilk?

If YOU want to be homosexuals, fine. Leave America out of it, or go to France!

I don't HATE you.

I don't HATE what sexual acts you do.

I HATE what you're doing to MY Country!!!



Go ahead, call me homophobic to my face. I'll show you homophobic!

The only person who can say if Jerry Lewis was wrong is Jessie, and I think he knows it was a joke.

If “GLAAD” want to insist Jerry Lewis contributed to violent acts, then they need to prove at least one case of a person attacking a homosexual because Jerry Lewis said a joke with the word fag in it.

Now they will also demand the resignation of Rep. Jerry Lewis (R - CA).

No, but good conservatives might given his record on earmarks.

I think Mr. Guliano should apologize for all the HIV that’s been transmitted via homosexual clubs, bath houses, public restrooms, etc.

After all, what’s worse . . . sticks or stones?

Good point and I doubt Jerry cares what they think. I can't help but think that someone or some group will be used to get to him to "help" him modify his stance. Probably for "the children."

the PC crowd can kiss his butt

Given the situation, you might want to rephrase that.

But then again maybe Jerry was just using the slang word for cigarette.

From dictionary.com:

Fag: Slang. A cigarette.

Mr. Giuliano, don't be so sahnsatahve

the illiterate fag," Lewis said,

Funny how the earlier story (on CNN) expressed some doubt about what was actually said.

Now that somebody's offended, it's certain.

“Besides, Jerry was obviously only referring to the acronym for the Film Actors Guild.

Of Texas.”

LOL!

As I posted on the other thread:

These idiots do realize we hear that, and worse, from nearly every comic working these days, do they not?

I hate it when media outlets feign shock and surprise in order to get someone in trouble for not being as PC as they are. What a bunch of frauds.

The gays have to try to destroy everything that’s good. Including THIS country. I hope Jerry ignores them but the MSM probably will not let it die.....

He said, ‘illiterate fatty’, not ‘illiterate faggot’. Listen to it and make your own judgment.

"Jessie, the illiterate fag," Lewis said.

OH! I finally understand what the slur is...It turns out Jessie isn’t illiterate.
