Rosa Parks Funeral

OK - This article was written at 11:30 Central time. You're smart, you can see when I posted this. Now, Rosa Parks' funeral started at 10/c. Other then people announcing the songs or who was singing or asking for collection, the first person to speak said thank to Cedric the Entertainer in the middle of his rambling...I guess it was a prayer -- I don't know! Then we have Coretta Scott King's daughter at the podium actually reading words from the Bible. Right now we have a man with another scripture reading. It's taken 1 hour and 40 minutes to get all of this done. My question is, when are we going to bury her? At this rate, it'll be midnight! Jesse Jackson still has to give his eulogy!

Just got my copy!

I was watching Fox and Friends on mute this morning as I usually do when I realized Michelle Malkin was sitting in the chair and I thought, "ooh! I need some volume!" She's doing her human advertisement for her new book "Unhinged: Exposing Liberals Gone Wild" which just came out in October. If you haven't read any of her columns, you can check them out here. Then you can understand why I needed some sound. Like Ann Coulter, Malkin is fabulous with words and sometimes you just need sound to hear exactly in what context to take her columns.

After hearing, I think it was Steve of Fox and Friends, read an excerpt, I thought, I must have this book! I must read this book! Thank God I'm in radio and I still have contacts with publishers because just now, about two hours after the segment, I just got my copy!

This is just great looking at the tease on the back (which are actual quotes from blogs and e-mails):

"ought to be shot between those Viet Cong eyes!"
"one hideous-looking and tremendously stupid woman!"
"Dishonest. Shill. Race-Baiter. War-Profiteer. Fascist."
"a know-nothing, empty-headed pseudo-intellectual who gets aroused by the smell of totalitarianism"


A+ for whoever did the marketing for her book!
