Wanda Sykes

Wanda Sykes is wonderful. She was her typical outspoken self the other night at the White House roast:
-
“Rush Limbaugh said he hopes this administration fails,” Sykes said. “So you’re saying, ‘I hope America fails.’ You’re like, ‘I don’t care about people losing their homes, 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 Rush Limbaugh was the 20th hijacker. But he was just so strung out on OxyContin he missed his flight.”
-
Not everyone laughed at that joke. She recognized it and said, “Too much?” If it was, that didn’t stop her.

“Rush Limbaugh said, 'I hope the country fails'; I hope his kidneys fail, how about that?” she continued. “He needs a good waterboarding, that’s what he needs."
