Well, here we go with more anti-gay slurs. Is it just me, or is the media starting to report these stories like its not a big deal? It almost feels like they don’t want to report it, but overshadow it with other information to ease the seriousness of what is said…Like “Jerry Lewis spouts gay slur…but raises 67 million!” What a crack!
For example, this new statement by Jerry Lewis. Old man and the telethon. So, here’s the story…He (for whatever reason) started goofing off and rambling to a cameraman about having an imaginary family..mmm okay…He then says, “Oh, you’re family is here to see you. You remember Bart, your older son…” Then says, “Jesse, the illiterate fa…” But stops himself from finishing that last word. He later apologized saying “I apologize to anyone who was offended,” “Everyone who knows me understands that I hold no prejudices in this regard. In the family atmosphere of the telethon, I forget that not everyone knows me that well.”
Does that make it alright? So, what he’s saying is that had he not been on national television, he would have said that? Because his friends know him? I’m confused, didn’t he say he holds no prejudices? What a putz! Should we chalk it up to him being 81 years old? Not in my mind. I’m sick and tired of all this!
Let’s take a look back on some of Jerry’s quotes….
I don’t like any female comedians,” he responded, going on to say that seeing a woman doing comedy “sets me back a bit. … I think of her as a producing machine that brings babies into the world.”
“He deserved to die! It’s his own damn fault” – On the death of Merv Griffin not accepting cancer treatment.
I do admit, he does a lot of great charity work. But that doesn’t make him an angel.
Do you think its time for Jerry to throw in the towel and let someone else take over?
Maybe he can call Rosie! I think she’d be PERFECT for the job!
Tell me….Who do you think would be good to take over the Telethon?
Juliet
