MSNBC: "Rita Cosby will be one of the media witnesses to the execution"
Just now, during the commercial break on "The Abrams Report."

She-Hulk will be broadcasting live from San Quentin during her show, and I'm sure will have a tale to tell tomorrow as well.

4. will Tookie be subjected to her voice before he dies?
if so, I don't care where you stand on the capital punishment debate, we should all agree that listening to her before you die is indeed cruel and very unusual. Barbaric even. :D

8. Better Punishment Than Death....
Confine him to a dark enclosed cell, and force him to wear headphones and listen to her Natalie H. coverage at an inflated volume for 10 hours each day.

7. Pretty soon they will probably have the condemned man
marched to his execution wearing a NASCAR like suit with advertising patches. Nike can give him a pair of new shoes. I guess in todays world the "INRI" notice tacked above Jesus's head on the cross would be "Pepsi" or something similar.

10. Being forced to see a fat white chick with too much makeup...
Edited on Mon Dec-12-05 06:46 PM by johnfunk
... just before being executed. Especially dressed in pink or cromson, as Rita is often wont to do. Now THAT is cruel and unusual punishment.

The least the authorities could do would be to invite Chris Matthews so Tookie can be amused at how much deeper Rita's voice is than Tweety's. She's a MAAAAN, bay-beeee!

12. She's exactly the kind who'd get her jollies from something like that.
What an abominably detestable piece of human scum she is! :puke:

15. Absolutely, she probably begged for the "assignment"
Then she'll give her devoted fans play by play details in between the coverage of the missing Aruba chick.

13. Could be worse..
It could be someone like Nancy Grace.

I assume the media circus are all flocking to California now so we can have wall-to-wall coverage for the next week.

19. Above all, it's about ENTERTAINMENT.
She's just another ghoulish blond rip-n-read "spokesmodel." The most important thing is to entertain the masses, even if it's a man being killed, even if it's low-speed Bronco chases, even if it's planes crashing into New York skyscrapers. It doesn't matter what it is, as long as it's entertaining and on TV. Because that's what will make them come back for more.

23. Time to cue up the Don Henley...
I make my living off the evening news
Just give me something-something I can use
People love it when you lose,
They love dirty laundry

Well, I coulda been an actor, but I wound up here
I just have to look good, I don’t have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear
Give us dirty laundry

Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em when they’re down
Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em when they’re down
Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em when they’re down
Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em all around

We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who
Comes on at five
She can tell you ’bout the plane crash with a gleam
In her eye
It’s interesting when people die-
Give us dirty laundry

Can we film the operation?
Is the head dead yet?
You know, the boys in the newsroom got a
Running bet
Get the widow on the set!
We need dirty laundry

You don’t really need to find out what’s going on
You don’t really want to know just how far it’s gone
Just leave well enough alone
Eat your dirty laundry

Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em when they’re down
Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em when they’re down

Kick ’em when they’re up
Kick ’em when they’re down
Kick ’em when they’re stiff
Kick ’em all around

Dirty little secrets
Dirty little lies
We got our dirty little fingers in everybody’s pie
We love to cut you down to size
We love dirty laundry

We can do the innuendo
We can dance and sing
When it’s said and done we haven’t told you a thing
We all know that crap is king
Give us dirty laundry!

26. And things were still a bit civilized when Henley wrote that
An update to those lyrics would have much wilder stuff.

22. So she will be the last person Tookie ever sees . . . . Talk about
kicking a man when he is down.

27. Method of execution: Death by Rita's voice
And it's a cruel and inhumane form of punishment, IMHO

What kind of person goes to witness an execution? What an ugly soul.
