He whined until they give him an affirmative action show to shut him up.

George Lopez says he’s ready to talk, in English and Spanish

George Lopez saw a lack of diversity in late-night talk. He thinks he's the guy to bring it.


These are tough times for late-night talk-show hosts. Jay Leno, whose late-night show doesn’t air so late anymore, has been under scrutiny for low ratings ever since he went to prime time in September. David Letterman is at the center of a sexual scandal. And those are the guys who are getting attention; Jimmy Fallon has fallen so far off the radar that he recently did a 30 Rock cameo spoofing his troubles as the host of NBC’s Late Night.
With all that going on, it seems only logical to start an interview with George Lopez, who is launching his own chatfest Monday night on TBS, whether he is — to put it the way that he might put it — loco.
"No, I don’t think so," says Lopez, who sounds relaxed and confident during a phone interview. "It’s an opportunity. It’s almost like Mad Max — you get to ride into town and wear black and clean up."
With Lopez Tonight, Lopez plans to clean up a lot of things. When Fallon was announced as Conan O’Brien’s replacement, many critics pointed out that all the network late-night hosts were white men. Lately, there have been some moves to change that, with comedian Mo’Nique’s BET talk-variety show and Wanda Sykes’ new Saturday-night Fox show. Like those hosts, Lopez saw too little diversity in late night, and he’s pretty straightforward about it.

Will the show be televised from the back of a Home Depot?

I think this is a great idea. Latin men should be at home watching TV at 10 P.M. instead of out on the street pimping or robbing cars.

The only late night stand up comedy program I watch is Fox News' Red Eye with Greg Gutfeld.

Ditto that, Brother Wash. I've never even heard of this Lopez character. Does he even have a Green Card?

[Nobar King]

If the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation is urging a boycott against this Gutfeld guy he must be worth checking out. What's his story?

Despite questions about his sexuality, Greg Gutfeld is NOT GAY!

What has me worried is this: If George Lopez is getting a late-night stint because of affirmative action, and it starts to fail (which it will because spic comics are never funny), will the Obama administration force people to watch it to bring up its ratings for racial quotas? Will Obama's thugs forcibly hack your cable and no matter what channel you turn to, George Lopez's talk show will be on?

You know whats funny? A Reverend calling one of his fellow men a "spic". What ever happened to "love thy neighbor"? You know whats really funny? In real life, Jesus had brown skin! Its true! Plus the Bible wasnt written by white men! Honky.

Wetbacks are'nt our neighbors. They're disease-ridden illegal immigrants who peddle dope in God's favorite country.

Hey we do not tolerate racism around here,watch your tongue.

Do you even know what the KJV 1611 is ?


I smell a demon,let me get my Bible.
warning we got a Satan worshiper on our hands

I know. It's horrible the way they treat you people. I keep trying to say you Mexicans are some of the proudest and most hard working people in the world. Such devotion to macabre and bloody pictures of Christ! Such worship of the Maria.

I have to admire your devotion, even though I find your particular type of Christianity to be a bit bizarre. So... Aztec.

Indeed, my brown skinned brethren, what did happen to the love? There's certainly too little of it in this place.

I would invite you to a UU service where you would be welcomed wholeheartedly, but we are notoriously too lazy to be bothered with actually proselytizing. All Christians and good people are going to Heaven as it is. Why even do it?

I have no doubt He did. He probably doesn't look much like the images of Him the cruel Spaniard masters forced your ancestors to kneel before or lose their lives.

Well, that's not completely true. The original New Testament was written in Greek. The Greek people were mostly white until the Turks conquered them in the 1400's.

Spic is not a racist word. It is short for "Hispanic". Does that also mean the cleaning product Spic 'N Span™ is racist? What are you going to do, write letters to Proctor and Gamble now?

I also love the hypocrisy you spew. You dare accuse us of being racists, yet your last word is a racist word: Honky.

Perhaps you should read Matthew 7:1-5 which addresses hypocritical judgement.
