Women aren't funny. Unless they are fat, dikey, and Jewish. Says Hitch. Like Lucille Ball, Marilyn Monroe, Jane Russell, Rosalind Russell, Claudette Colbert, Katherine Hepburn, Mary Astor. Obviously Hitch has descended so far into the bottle to even pretend to approximate sentient existence. Or even carnal desire. This is a guy who claims to heed at least his little head when it speaks. And he failed to register Marilyn in his radar? It's pathetic. Why do we pay attention to this disgusting self-caricature?
