Emmy Host and 'Glee' Star Jane Lynch Mocks Tea Party as Anti-Latina

By Geoffrey Dickens | September 19, 2011 | 10:33

It wouldn't be an awards show in Hollywood if there weren't the typical cheap shots against conservatives and the 63rd Emmy Primetime Awards host Jane Lynch didn't disappoint as she mocked the Tea Party as anti-Latina. The star of the Fox hit show "Glee," during that network’s broadcast of the Emmys on Sunday, joked that her "daughter had a tea party with her little friends" where "they complained about taxes, called Obama a communist and wondered how the Latina kid got in?"

Later on in the broadcast, Lynch also went on to name check MSNBC's ultra liberal host Rachel Maddow when she listed her "gay agenda."

(video after the jump)

The following excerpts were aired during Fox's September 18 broadcast of the 63rd Primetime Emmy Awards:

[8:39pm]

JANE LYNCH: You know we're raising a little girl here in Hollywood, but it's a pretty normal existence for our kids. Our kids are everywhere. Yesterday my daughter had a tea party with her little friends and it was so cute. They complained about taxes, called Obama a communist and wondered how the Latina kid got in?

[9:00pm]

LYNCH: You know everyone was asking me if I had a gay agenda for the show, and actually I do.

(Pulls out piece of note paper)

LYNCH, READING FROM LIST: Call Rachel Maddow and find out what time spinning is. Take the pick-up in for an oil change. Nah, I'll do it myself. And there was a third thing but I must've left it in my fanny pack.

And if these facts were not covered up by the media (who only spews hateful lies about the Tea Party) a whole lot more of all groups would join the TEA Party because many do indeed believe in these values once they get to hear them!

I wouldn't want him bleeding on players and I don't wish him further injury.

That said, I hope the Eagles lose every game while Vick is on the team. He is a low life scum. If a man his age does not know that torturing and killing animals is wrong then he will never change his base views. Any apparent change is for public consumption so he may resume his football career and possible sponsors. I am sickened that anyone would hire him and that the announcers/producers of the game did everything they could to whitewash this ahole. Same goes for the people that decided to hire Vick. Creepy.

I was forced to watch this mess from beginning to end by my wife and found it to be mostly repugnant, seriously self-congratulatory and boring. But I think that joke was about immigration, not strictly race.

You have to understand, to Libtards, if you want common sense (that's why they exist in the first place) immigration laws enforced you are a anti- hispanic racist, despite the fact that the libtard meme just two years ago was, "..it's not right to classify illegals as mostly hispanic!!!", but since they've now decided that works in their favor for their class-warfare/racism act, it's all okay for them to do that.
Now, if she had said the latino girl broke into her girl's room and demand all her stuff, declared it was her room from now on and called her daughter 'the racist oppressor', THAT would have been more accurate.

Although I don't have the numbers at hand I seem to remember reading a report some time ago stating that awards shows in general aren't pulling in good numbers. My theory is that oversaturation of celebrity exposure is partially to blame for the declining interest in awards show.

Personally speaking, I've always found them boring...only one minor baby-step above political speeches boring.

Submitted by lesterwink23 on Mon, 09/19/2011 - 12:55pm.

I had the misfortune of overhearring much of the Emmys last night while working on my college courses as my wife was watching it. As soon as I heard the above mentioned "joke" I groaned loudly because I knew exactly what she was referring to, not that I was surprised in the least. The whole event was dismal; Lynch's jokes falling flat, painfully unfunny banter between the presenters, the overtly gay agenda "Modern Family" winning just about every award in sight and some of my favorite actors still winless (the fact that Hugh Laurie and Steve Carrell have been snubbed for so long is enough to make these awards a joke). From this point forward I'm instituting a personal boycott against watching ANY entertainment awards show since they're all pretty much the same anyways

Submitted by balboa on Mon, 09/19/2011 - 3:00pm.

Two gay characters and the show has an "overtly gay agenda"? It's the best comedy on TV. That's why it won.

Hugh Laurie should have won, but not this year. Carell should win, but not this year.

The telecast was not very good. The opening number was lame, and those singers were pointless. Jane Lynch is hilarious, but not as a host. A host is a very specific skill set, and she doesn't have it.

But the Office spoof was great, as was the female comedy lead bit.
