She’s smart, tough and sassy. She says what’s on her mind. She’s a bestselling author. She was on her way to a quiet retirement when she was featured on "60 Minutes" for her judicial style. Next thing you know, she's the newest TV Judge, her second career. She’s a champion for equality amongst the sexes – she despises male as well as female idiots. As far as I am concerned, she has the best gig in America. She believes in good, old-fashioned common sense and common decency and will eviscerate anyone that doesn't employ either. There is a definite contingent of folks that don’t care for her style, but she’s laughing all the way to the bank with her annual salary of $45 million. It’s show business, not show friends.
Personal Quotes:
"Sir don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining."
"What do I know about Myspace? It's an Internet site where people, who have nothing better to do with their time, go and chat about a whole bunch of nonsense. We could eliminate a third of the problems in this country, if people actually had to shovel coal into a furnace for heat... rather than spending all that time they have making problems for other people, by sitting at their personal computers doing things other than those which PCs were actually designed for."
"...I've got a message for all you single people out there, in the audience, so listen to me very carefully - Aside from no joint bank accounts, no joint credit cards, no joint visas until you're married, take this home with you: NEVER cosign on anybody's behalf for anything, and I mean NOT EVER!"
