145. I wonder if the morning crew (TODAY)

Sun Jun 21, 2015, 10:50 PM

Jun 2015

was met with a bunch of protesters with signs asking Toodles what he thinks of Al Roker.
Since he like to equate that people of color are the only ones that know how to use a gun.

He probably forgot about the bunch out in Nevada with the criminal Cliven Bundy and two of the individuals in that crowd going into a pizza shop killing two police officers, while eating a pizza and then draping a Gadsden flag over their dead bodies------------last time I checked they were white, and I think, if memory serves me correctly the kid that murdered 26 human beings in a school was white also , the list goes on and on--------------but for Toodles-----------that's a different question

I can believe it---------------if you listen to him speak, he is just a walking talking point with and for the right wing.
He really does not have the morals or the scruples to sit in the chair for MTP------------because now he represents the press
