Tracy Morgan says stuff and people get mad, again -- It's been a while since 30 Rock's Tracy Morgan ticked people off. Last February he enraged Palin fans when he went on TNT during a live broadcast and said the former governor is "good masturbation material." But after his latest rant, this time attacking gays, even his co-star Tina Fey isn't backing him up. She made the following statement to TMZ: "The violent imagery of Tracy's rant was disturbing to me at a time when homophobic hate crimes continue to be a life-threatening issue for the GLBT Community." Presumably Fey was fine with Morgan's vulgar comments on Palin, but she finally had to speak up because this time he angered people who might actually buy her book.Anybody seen Michael Richards of Seinfeld fame lately? His blast at a heckler, using a word that's apparently reserved only for black comedians, seems to have gotten him banned from life. He should have yelled "Palin" instead of the "n" word.

And if Morgan's son was biologically homosexual, that is different than lying and saying some one pals around with terrorists (and only able to name one.)
There were always two terrorists - William Ayers and his wife Bernardine Dohrn.
Tell Mrs. Palin.
She couldn't name Bernardine.
