By now you have probably read about Wanda Sykes’ comments at the Correspondents Dinner. It is the first time in recorded history a lesbian has stood before America’s media elite and performed oral favors on a man — and not just any man. She did so to the President of the United States. It was a Lewinsky moment without the cigar and stained dress.
Never mind that the American media elite would never dream of inviting anyone to speak at the Correspondents Dinner who supported a Republican. But the fawning hagiography to Obama continues. And it does so with some pointed remarks about Rush Limbaugh and Dick Cheney.
Did you hear the one about Barack Obama? He was in a boat with a rabbi, a pastor, and a Hindu priest. He said, “This isn’t funny. There’s no muslim here. There’s no muslim here.”
Did you hear the one about why they canceled the national day of prayer observances at the White House? Too much to do to stop and pray toward Mecca five times a day.
Do you know the difference between Barack Obama and cocaine? One gets to walk around the White House freely. The other has to be hidden in his daughter’s teddy bear. (H/t Caleb).
Do you know the difference between Barack Obama and the hijackers on 9/11? The hijackers didn’t live to cheer the World Trade Center toppling.
Outrageous, aren’t they? (keep reading)
Not really worth laughing at, are they?
Hey, how about I hope Barack Obama’s lungs fail under the strain of his smoking? No, Wanda Sykes would never say that.
But Barack Obama laughed at statements just as offensive about Rush Limbaugh and Dick Cheney. You can’t really even call them jokes. We know the lesbian comedienne started off on rocky ground about Vice President Cheney because of his first name. From there, the fact that he actually kept us safe was a real frustration for her. She, in her own way, loathes this backwardly still conservative leaning country as much as the men who hijacked those planes. And she is wiling to project her disgust and outrage onto Republicans while Barack Obama cheers her on.
If a Republican were to sit in front of the media elite and laugh about Barack Obama or Nancy Pelosi being the 20th hijacker on 9/11, it would be front page news. The media would be outraged. That is a statement of fact we all know too well.
But there is another statement of fact that we need to point out. Sykes said of Limbaugh, “He’s not saying anything differently than what Osama bin Laden is saying.” Clearly Sykes has never listened to LImbaugh because that is patently not true. But she also must not be paying attention to Barack Obama. Because while Osama Bin Laden is calling for America to be destroyed, Barack Obama is actually trying to destroy it.
That is why Rush, me, and others want Barack Obama to fail. And that is no laughing matter.
Well it WAS Bill Maher who said that the men who attacked us on 9-11 were anything but cowards.
Yep. A suckerpunch on civilians in an undeclared war. A war on stewardesses (they slashed a stewardess’ throat when she posed resistence to their act).
Bill Maher is a bitter a-hole.
YIKES!
Jess,
What does Sykes do for Applebee’s? I’m probably the only person in the world who doesn’t know who she is.
Regards
It was a deliberate lie to say Limbaugh wanted America to fail. That libs ignore that tells you all you need to know about liberals.
Here’s the joke she’ll never tell:
Q. What do Obama and Osama have in common?
A. Friends who bombed the Pentagon. (Bill Ayers and al-Qaeda)
She is their TV pitch dyke...and here is what she thinks is funny;
I know Governor Palin, she’s not here tonight. She pulled out at the last minute. You know, somebody should tell her that’s not really how you practice abstinence.
And I have to say to the First Lady, kudos to you for unveiling the bust of the Sojourner of Truth in the White House. That’s, yes. And, but, could you do me a favor and please make sure it’s nailed down real well since, ‘cause you know when the next white guy comes in they gonna move it to the kitchen.
Rush Limbaugh, one of your big critics, boy, Rush Limbaugh said he hopes this administration fails. So, you’re saying “I hope America fails,” it’s like, I don’t care about people losing their homes, or their jobs, our soldiers in Iraq. He just wants the country to fail. To me, that’s treason. He’s not saying anything differently than what Osama bin Laden is saying. You know, you might want to look into this, Sir, because I think maybe Rush Limbaugh was the 20th hijacker, but he was just so strung out on oxycontin he missed his flight.
Rush Limbaugh, I hope the country fails, I hope his kidneys fail, how ‘bout that? Needs a little waterboarding, that’s what he needs.
Sean Hannity, Sean Hannity said he’s going to get waterboarded for charity, for our armed forces. He hasn’t done it yet, I see. You know, talking about how he can take a waterboarding. Please. Okay, he can take a waterboarding by someone you know and trust, but let somebody from Pakistan waterboard, or Keith Olbermann. Let Keith Olbermann waterboard him. He can’t take a waterboarding. I can break Sean Hannity just by giving him a middle seat in coach.
Dick Cheney, oh my God, he’s a scary man, scares me to death. I tell my kids, I says, “Look, if two cars pull up, and one has a stranger, and the other car has Dick Cheney, you get in the car with the stranger.”
And finally, Sir, they even gave you grief about the dog, about Bo. You know, the animal rights people on you, “Why didn’t he get a rescue dog? Why didn’t he get a rescue dog?” Look, the man has to rescue a country that’s been abused by its previous owner. Let him have a fresh start with a dog.
My father, a former Gunny Sgt. USMC always said that this nation will not be truly healed over Vietnam until Jane Fonda is prosecuted for treason, convicted, and hanged.
Wishing someone dead is what passes for humor for democrats...at least when the person you wish dead isn’t a democrat.
I think I should sue Ms Dykes.
he is a Disgrace, Maher should be in an orange jumpsuit. and i don’t mean a prison jumpsuit either.
It’s always interesting to make comparisons.
Don Imus says “nappy headed hoes” and is forced off the air. Wanda Sykes hopes Rush has kidney failure, but will pay no penalty of any kind for inappropriate humor. If you are making jokes about conservatives, everything is allowed, there are no standards. Whereas if you joke about liberals or minorities, it’s time for a crucifixion.
Wanda Sykes will pay no penalty for this.
Who was worse, Wanda Sykes or Don Imus? I’m not going to defend what Imus said, I just want to think about the consequences he faced vs. what she is going to face. She’s a new hero among the Hollywood idiots I’m sure.
Wanda Sykes does voice overs for Applebee’s commercials. She is not identified on the voice overs, but her unique irritating voice is recognizable.
Wanda Sykes is a disgusting old troll.
She has publicly declared herself a homosexual, after Prop 51 was defeated. Are you saying she can't do that?
Just did it! Thanks for the link. We all need to speak up ALL the time, no matter what.
If you engaged in homosexual acts for 8 years, would you be able to technically declare yourself a heterosexual for life? Or would you be a “recovering heterosexual”?
Makes about as much sense as when Meghan McCain calls herself a Republican for Obama.
I used to like her before she became political. Back then she used to be funny. Lots of self-deprecating humor. So I saw her perform live at the Improv here in Orange County one night and she did pretty well... until she went into a series of jokes aimed at President Bush and lost the audience for the rest of the set. Truly disappointing. Haven’t been able to enjoy anything about her since then.
Comedians need to stick to comedy and stay away from politics because they’re virtually guaranteed to lose about 40% of their fan base.
Bye, Wanda. I hope you get kidney failure. BTW, that was just a joke, honey. ha ha
