Huffington Post: Penn Jillette Makes Hillary "White B*tch" Joke On MSNBC, Joe & Mika Condemn Him
May 6, 2008

This morning on MSNBC, magician Penn Jillette repeated an admittedly "cheesy" joke that performed really well on a recent tour — that Barack Obama did well in February because it was Black History Month and Hillary Clinton did well in March because it was "White Bitch Month."

Jillette used the joke to underscore his point that there is a huge reserve of hatred out there for Hillary, but anchors Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough were not amused and did not appreciate his comment. Watch as he repeats the joke and then is condemned by Mika and Joe, with Mika saying, "I didn't think it was funny, and I gotta tell you, with all the work Hillary Clinton is doing, I'm insulted, actually."

6. ...interesting how in voiced objections they manage to support the idea that Barack gets a deal

because he's black.

7. I had the same thought. I'm not so crazy about the "Black History Month" reference either. nt

10. exactly.

They were disappointed not because of the language, but because of the insinuation against Hillary.

They neglected to address the whole first half of that statement.



btw: I love P&T.

8. Fuck Penn

He and Teller have gone from being mildly amusing to being the nastiest pieces of libertarian crap around.

They suck anyway. They should have stuck to the magic and special effects schtick.

9. i thought he was a libertarian or maybe that was he 's just a dick

Her delicate sensibility must be reeling.

Maybe dreams of obliterated Iranian children will comfort her dear head tonight.

12. Penn Jillette is a rightwing asshole

Who cares what he thinks? he's been hard right for a loooong time.
