Wanda Sykes Warned: Don't Get Dirty!

wanda sykes roast white house

Comedian Wanda Sykes roasted the President, the press and politicos at Saturday night's White House Correspondents' Association Dinner -- and told "Extra" she was warned to keep it clean!

"They told me not so say the F word or the N word... I'm offended they even told me that," Sykes told "Extra" moments before taking the stage. "What do they think? I'm some ignorant a**. Like I'm going to go in there, 'What's up n*****. Like what the f*** they think I'm going to do?"

The "New Adventures of Old Christine" star continued, "They really think I was going to say that to the President... like they had to tell me that?"

and we can also tell whom watches all the elite liberal networks (because there are MUCH more of those). And whom doesn’t do THEIR own thinking as well.

Those views? “I’ll just learn all I need from TV”. If it’s on television then it must be true.

I DID NOT LIKE WANDA AT ALL. HER HUMOUR WAS TASTELESS. I DID NOT FIND HER FUNNY AT ALL, IS THE THE BEST COMEDIAN THEY COULD FIND?

SEND WANDA BACK TO HARLEM, MAYBE THOSE GANGSTAS WILL FIND HER HUMOUR FUNNY IF NOT …THEY CAN SHOOT HER.

WANDA WAS NOT GOOD FOR THE WHITE HOUSE EVENT..SHE IS JUST TOO RAUNCHY AND TOO GHETTO.

What are you TWELVE, or just IGNORANT? The race card clearly does NOT apply here? And educate yourself before calling others “stupid”? ALL politicians make this country a “mess”… I know Bush is a “convenient” excuse- but let’s not forget people like Bill Clinton, Richard Nixon, Jimmy Carter…CONGRESS, SENATE, .. amongst OTHERS including career politico Barack Obama!! He’s not our saviour, nor is he immune to criticizm!


- Your "race card" has been revoked!

He’s got an awful lot of rules, telling who to say what, who to shut up when, don’t talk to my family, don’t ask me this or that - AND EVERYONE ACTUALLY LISTENS!?!?!?!?!! LOL!! I cannot believe it, it’s so nauseating. No other pres. would do this; they all had to take the heat, no matter what. HE IS NO BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE in the white house. PS: Wonderful wanda is known for her saucy humor - HOW ABOUT, JUST DON’T invite her, instead of trying to edit and censor everything she is??? IDIOTS

Hey Chuck,

If you do the “homework” that you’re implying others should do, you’d likely not have even VOTED for the precious one in the office.

Sure he’s done “alot”? Biggest DEBT in history EVER,.. even your great great grand-children will be paying for the bills he’s creating!!? Made america one of the weakest nations in the world by dismantling our defense systems and our military? Over-Seas announcing he wants a “nuclear free world” while a MISSILE flies from North Korea and over Japan!! Closed Gitmo,.. those terrorists will be moving to your neighborhood I hope? He’s trying to hold POLITICIANS accountable for the TREATMENT of these people— hmm how soon we forget 911 huh? Let’s go after our OWN, and treat the enemy better- sounds like a genius move to me?? He attented ALL the innaugural balls WITH celebrities, the ONLY ONE without (the military ball) he COMPLETELY AVOIDED!!? Look THAT one up? He goes to “muslim” nations and brags about his muslim roots, all the while dissing america as “shameful” “arogant” and “rude”.. all these qualities, to me, seem rather the pot calling the kettle black? (NO racial slur intended- although I’m sure you’re one of those that calls others mere “racist” for their own dislikes of this presidents policies)??

He goes on LENO (because he’s a celebrity) and gives a good KNOCK to the MENTALLY CHALLENGED?? Remember that? NOOO backlash from the LIBERAL and SOLD OUT MEDIA that aided in BUYING him this position called president!!

His illegal alien Aunt STILL resides in Boston? Seems “some” get special privileges— doesn’t matter he’s working on LEGALIZING ALL ILLEGALS -so when you lose your job to a “minority” you’ll have no other to thank than “the CHOSEN ONE”??

So- CHUCK, had you done your actual homework on your “choice” here, you’d compare resume’ to resume’ and see that the knucklehead is completely IN-EXPERIENCED for the job you’ve given him- heck the guy you call “commander in chief” has absolutely NO MILITARY experience what-so-ever?? Not to mention EXECUTIVE experience? He’s a “rock star” and “career politician”? But you wouldn’t see it that way,.. why?…. Because you, like those others whom voted for Barack Obama, ..WANTED TO “MAKE HISTORY” that’s why!!!!!

Don’t tell others to READ, when it’s obvious you don’t truly READ yourself?

“too busy”?? puulleaze.


- Charles ..since you do so much "homework"?

You can’t possibly be serious. Time for him to get to work? Won the election for Hollywood? Wondering what he’s going to do as Prez? I thought the conservatives were complaining that he’s doing too much.

Since you posted here, I’m assuming you have access to the internet, which is a valuable tool for acquiring information. There’s this neat thing called Google that lets you search for anything that you want to know about. I believe that Obama and his actions in Office so far should be covered on a website or two.

It’s hard work, doing your own research and finding answers to your own questions these days, but if you apply yourself and don’t give up, you should do just fine.

Oh, you wanted me to list off everything for you? Sorry, but I’m kinda busy. Maybe you should drop the party and do some work yourself.

Wanda was waaay over the top in her ‘humor’. The double standard applied to Obamatrons is jaw dropping!

Nice job by Sykes and the president. Cry me a river Republicans. Maybe they’ll invite Limbaugh to keynote the next time there’s a Republican president. Nah, too divisive and he won’t live that long anyway.

Seems to me more and more harsh pop shots are coming not only from black comedians, but black entertainment industry elite!

So many things get said, that by anyone white- in a slur to anyone black (President Obama) would be immediately dubbed a RACIST!! The double standard is getting way outta hand at this point. Jamie Foxx, Kanye West, P. Diddy, Samuel Jackson, Wanda Sykes —all in recent months have shown truly RACIST slander. And have received ZERO back-lash for it too. Don Imus, Michael Richards, and just examples of what “white” people DO NOT get away with. COMPLETE DOUBLE STANDARD!!

Who is Wanda Sykes anyway but another washed up has-been entertainer DESPERATE for attention!!

And for her to use this platform to BOAST of the ELITE LIBERAL and SELFISH ONE-SIDED views of the DEMOCRATIC party is not only disgusting, but (like our president) FAR FROM BI-PARTISAN!

You’re just beginning to see what REVERSE RACISM is all about America,.. this president and the hollywood types he rubs elbows with will prove not only what a celebrity ELITE our President is, but also dig to the core of his racist views.


- Wanda Sykes another racist!

I want to know what Obama’s planning on doing as Prez? Seems to me all he does is party on taxpayers money. We are all losing our jobs and he’s adopting a stupid mutt!!! What gives? His wife….she aint nothing the face of a horse and the teeth to match….Obama, get off your horse and drop the party and do something for this country before its too late!!

Anonymous seems a little out of touch. Have a look at whitehouse.gov, yo. All the press briefings are there, if you really want to know what he’s been doing. I think you’ll be impressed. Turns out there’s a reason his approval rating is in the high 60s.

In Sammy Davis, Jr’s autobiography—ironically, entitled “Yes, I Can”—he describes going to a very fancy dinner party and there at the buffet, in the midst of the pate and caviar, was a little plate of fried chicken. And the hostess made a point of walking up while he was there, taking a piece of chicken and eating it, saying, “I just adore this, don’t you?” It seems like we haven’t progressed much in 40 years. People of color are just presumed to be…different.

Brilliant performance from Wanda. Biting and funny, a bit cringe-worthy at times and well worth staying up to watch it on C-Span. I’m looking forward to next year’s event.

It’s time for him to get to work. That’s why he is in office,Not to make nice with Hollywood , although that is the only reason he won that position. If you want to be a Hollywood starlet. You need to resign and give it to someone who want to work for everyone ,not just Hollywood. It’s time you get your head out of the clouds and do some work for the real people.
