[African-Americans] don't need civil rights. They don't need them. They have inalienable rights granted by God in the Constitution. I mean, I'm discriminated against all the time. I don't care. It doesn't bother me. [I'm discriminated against] because I'm old. I'm too old to get a job as a game show host. They say, well, the guy's 71 and in five years he'll be 76. And Im a one per center, and I'm absolutely discriminated against as a one per center."
He doesn't care that he is discriminated against, but why should he? He is one of those poor, put-upon 1%-ers who just can't get an even break. Of course, he can be flippant about discrimination against him, as he doesn't have to starve or get crapped on by RWers who want to punish people for being poor.

So now we learn the guy isn't just disgusting on a conversational level, he's disgusting to the very core of his being!
I'm amazed the jerk is still alive. It doesn't make him terribly relevant, though! Nitwit!
