    Still, that is a particular dismal showing, isn’t it? Well less than 1% of Americans. Cable “news” didn’t have a very good night.

    THE INAUGURAL SPEECH – JUST ONE OF BECKERHEAD’S LIES,
    FROM LAST SATURDAY’S DIMWIT AND HERETIC RALLY,
    EXPOSED TO US ALL, THANKS TO THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES,
    SOON, WE’LL NEED A SPREAD SHEET FOR AN ACCURATE TALLY.

    Gee, surprise surprise FOX wins again and RRK gives us his usual insane post.

    Poor RRK, to get real attention you need to use your real name. We need to get you to the rubber room before the election.

    I totally agree and since only .00007% of Americans are gays wanting to get married it’s certainly not enough to make us change an institution so they can “fit in”. I like how you think royal!!

    The Royal King doesn’t know how to rhyme
    But he keeps trying time after time
    His attempts are lame
    He’s starving fame
    Maybe he should try being a mime

    If you pronounce “mime” in such fashion that it rhymes with “time” that says a great deal about you. Educated people pronounce it in such a fashion that it rhymes with “seem”.

    The Royal King thinks he’s so damn smart
    While sipping tea and nibbling on a tart
    His cultural superiority
    Is really an inferiority
    I’ve found more intelligence in a dry fart

  • writer

    The King’s racial rules just don’t make sense
    They seem to have no basis
    If you quote Farrakhan or Wright
    Then that makes you the racist

    Henry DeWitt Morgenthau-Chalmers IV, whoa now we know why you don’t use your real name. That says it all.

  • Nachi

    Just further proof that we have “The WORST generations” – with “The WRONG stuff.”

  • JimBob

    The Royal Court Jester
    referring to Queenie Morgenthau=Chambers IV

    I’ve found more intellegence in a dry fart

    I have found more substance in a wet fart!
    Does anyone on this planet believe he just gave his real name?
    Give me a break!!
    That name had phony lit up with neon!
    This guy Queen is a boring old fart, hiding behind a keyboard,
    with a hell of a lot of time on his hands !
    It would kill him if everyone simply ignored his crap !

  • JimBob

    CENK UYGUR, the new voice and face of MSNBC !!
    ROTFLMAO !

    Guess what shows up when you put in the “REAL” name of RRK to a Google search? NOTHING. You have to be a real loser that has never accomplished anything in your life to not come up on a Google search.
