Chris Rock quote:

[ceile]

on if the country is ready for a Black president:

"It's ready for a retarded president, why wouldn't it be ready for an African American president?"

1. Oh my. Rock is always on point. n/t

n/t

[The Count]

2. He Rocks!

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

3. I'm Most Definitely Gonna Have To Use That Line For Now On. MWAH!

Just perfect!

:rofl:

[Dr Fate]

6. No kidding- I just told everyone in my office.

Pretty much the funniest thing I have ever heard.

[Sydnie]

4. That is just perfect

:rofl:

[treestar]

5. That is too funny

Though he may get some hell for using "retarded."

:rofl:

[Dr Fate]

7. We usually let comedians get away w/ this kind of thing.

I think his choice of words was perfect- comparing The Idiot to "mentally challenged" or whatever the PC term is would have been an insult to those folks.

Bush is just a damn retard- in the school-yard-insult sense of the word.

[Nedsdag]

8. You knew Chris Rock wasn't going keep quiet

when it comes to the Presidential election.

Either way, it's still funny!

[texastoast]

9. Poifect!

And so very, very true.

:rofl:

[butterfly77]

10. I also begin thinking the same thing when they say...

obama or anyone else doesn't have enough experience,how could they even bring this up when they know they have this dumbass in the whitehouse.

[northofdenali]

11. Chris Rock: Priceless!

I think I'll keep this quote........ :rofl:

[tavalon]

12. Good point Chris!

[Cha]

13. I'm thinking it's so over its

facination with the retarded president(sic).

If there was spot in the dictionary for "retarded president"..bush's over photoped smirk would be there.

[progressoid]

14. Straight to the point!

[karlrschneider]

15. That's pretty weird...sounds like he's saying a black is as good as a retard.

That's BOUND to offend -somebody-...:eyes:

[Danascot]

16. B*sh lowered the bar

for what it takes to be president so much it must be in China by now.

[Laurier]

17. Good one!

As an aside, I really do think that the country is ready for a black president, and as much as we collectively derail the mainstream media here, I think we owe them one for airing television shows depicting black presidents, etc., as it has a huge effect on many who would otherwise still be stuck in the misguided Archie Bunker mindset and era.

18. Chris Rock is brilliant nm

[Pacifist Patriot]

19. Why is it always the comedians who nail the truth these days?

Except for stand up comics, parody news shows and editorial cartoonists I'd have given up all hope by now.

[Miss Chybil]

21. Because "the truth is often spoken in jest."

A death row inmate told me that once.

[NDP]

20. Two for one! Are you listening?

[JNelson6563]

22. Ever hear him talk of a black vice president?

haha It's very funny. He says there would never BE a black vice president because.....he for one would be excited to whack the president so there could then be the first black president. He says what's the worse that could happen? He'd either go to prison and be treated like a hero for the rest of his life or be pardoned by the first black president.


Chris Rock is so funny. I just love him.

23. Chris Rock is brilliant!!

He is one of my favorites for sure. His humor is like a lazer beam--right on point.

[PurpleChez]

24. I'm so glad I wasn't eating saltines just now

coz, damn, I'd have snarfed them all over the keyboard.
