Actor's Racism on Fox Makes Even Anchors Squeamish
Brad Garrett, the 6'8" costar of Everbody Loves Raymond, apparently doesn't love everybody. Especially Fox anchor Steve Doocy. And black people. And lesbians.
In an after-show special from his appearance on Fox and Friends, Garrett managed to offend just about everyone on set with his "comedy," even the black cameraman, and the blonde make-up artist who had the audacity to act like a "proper white woman" when Garrett accused her of drinking on the job and having sex with the cameraman in a van.
Garrett's offensive tirade prompted Doocy to call the moment Fox's "most offensive interview ever" and tell Garrett that "I just don't appreciate you making fun of people in such a personal way. People who are total strangers not in the public eye." Doocy, by the way, slammed Obama for attending a "madrassa" and having the middle name Hussein. He's also been seriously misinformed about a number of issues, from the US Code to Sarah Palin being a foreign policy expert. But this latest incident makes me think a tiny, little bit better of him. Maybe defending his co-hosts and crew from racist, misogynist attacks is part of those "small-town values" Republicans are always talking about. Or maybe he just didn't like being upstaged.
Comments
Catharsis is what I witnessed. Mr. Garrett was in the den of the fox. Everyone in that studio has been a part of the slime that comes from Fox. They may just be doing their job for a paycheck but they are cogs in the Fox machine that keep up the lies. Mr. Garrett praised Obama calling him the future, he criticized the last eight years and which Fox has had a leading role in. Man, if I had a chance to be on Fox TV live I would go nuts. Compared to how I feel about things, 8 years of lies, a campaign of lies, damn we should all be mad as hell.
Fox loves presenting unlikeable people supporting Democrats. It's pretty clever.

CJ is right..:-)
The best way to show dems for what they REALLY are is to let them say what they truely beleive. When you here what is in the mind of a liberal, most people think they are a bunch of NUTS..!!!
