Yes, that guy is an A-hole of the rankest order.
A little background however. Today Elena called me from her car, sucking air. She was horrified and told me this story. She had her radio on so she only got the audio portion. I sort of shrugged it off. I thought she was going to come through the phone and neuter me without anesthesia.
Why was I not horrified? That stupid, moss-backed comment was something I heard when I was a kid. People snickered and thought they were being horribly clever. Kids, girl type kids, rolled their eyes and yawned. It was something men said and thought they were cute or something your grandmother said. It was a short cut, and in those days, a less crude way for telling girls to keep their legs together. No mention of flies zipped.
However, we are a long, long way from me being a kid and this jerk should have known better. If anyone allows you near a microphone, you should know better. His remark was stupid, ignorant, inappropriate, and lots of other things. The horrifying fact is, the poor dumb ass thought he was being funny. He is so out of touch with reality out in the real world that he actually thought he was adding some levity to the conversation by being dismissive. He has no idea that millions of women will hear the name Foster Friess and his life will no longer be his own. He is now a laughing stock and an object of derision.
The real jihadists he is speaking of are here amongst us in the form of him, Rick Santorum and those like them. He was born in 1940 so he is about 72. He is filthy rich and involved in conservative Christian initiatives. He has also donated to Scott Walker’s campaign as well as lots of money to Rick Santorum. All that money and still socially inept.
When does it end? Each days brings about another assault. Andrea Mitchell wasn’t kidding about catching her breath. She was dumbfounded at his poor social skills.
Sadly, Foster-baby thinks that “GALS” are thinking about sex. Wrong. They are thinking about de-sexing him.
