And he's right. What an idiot.
First, he thinks he has the right to talk about anyone's hair because he's bald? Second, he really wasn't just talking about McKinney's hair; he mentioned that she looked like a welfare drag queen.
Obviously, it's just a case of Boortz attention-whoring, and he succeeded.
From the March 31 broadcast of Cox Radio Syndication's The Neal Boortz Show:
BOORTZ: OK. Now, I'm going to repeat something that I said a little bit earlier. I've been enduring jokes about my lack of hair for years, so I am absolutely privileged and entitled. This is not white privilege, this is bald privilege. I am privileged and entitled to say anything I want about anybody else's hairdo.
I saw Cynthia McKinney's hairdo yesterday -- saw it on TV. I don't blame that cop for stopping her. It looked like a welfare drag queen was trying to sneak into the Longworth House Office Building. That hairdo is ghetto trash. I don't blame them for stopping her. Now, let's see if Media Matters will pick up on that one. "Boortz calls McKinney welfare drag queen." [laughs] So, well, that's why I do things like that, just to give them something to write about.
Congrats, Boortz. You are a drama queen.
