Far from your average comic, she makes it known that she is a God-fearing, conservative black Republican. A complex threat indeed. She openly proclaims her love for President George Bush -- while still supporting Sen. Barack Obama as her presidential candidate.
WTF?!?!?!? I can no longer support her...off to the ZPHIBGDP!!!!
"ZPHIBGDP"
.... it has a nice ring to it!
She just lost all creditability. Love for George Bush… GTFOH.
Besides all of that..her comedy style gets on my freakin nerves! She's waaay too loud...she uses vulgarity to make up for her un-funniness, those big purple a$$ gums bother me too! Can't stand lookin in that mouth! Oh yea..the blue-a$$ eye shawdow urks me to no end as well!!! Also, she reps for Z-Kitty waaaaaaaaay to hard! I wrote her off YEARS ago, but this just solidified it! Can't believe this black a$$ heffa supports Curious George! And why would Z-Phi want this foul-mouth...nasty (talking) a$$ woman to be their president???
And she has the nerves to be from the crib!! What a disgrace!! The Zeta's should re-think their decision..you'd think they'd want somepne who is mild mannered, well spoken to be the public face..instead they chose this loud, a$$, country-a$$, Yugly a$$, boogie monster to rep for them! Dayum!! LOL (sorry for sounding like a hater...but she's trash, I've never really liked her)
I think they made a good choice! Don't you think she ADEQUATELY perpetuates each and every single stereotype they've ever had!!! LOL. Now I guess it's just official!
Right now the Zeta's are just looking for someone to help turn around the image (stealing money from the org) which was created by the last president.
And you think Sheryl could help turn that around!? Vulgar trash, talking Sheryl? If they were intent on flipping the image (unless she's reformed).
I will support that with this hot 97 interview.

Like Travelin' said. It's about the publicity. If their problems are as bad as he says, then any positive press they can get is good for them. Funny or not, she might be the best thing they got going for them right now.
She might just be the right person for them. Yea I was shocked as he!! when reading that she was a republican and loved Bush but, to me there's nothing wrong with that. Maybe she's pro life instead of pro choice or maybe her loud mouth and vulgar comedy personality is just an act...who knows. She's got the experience and education.
So does this make her the real Black(est) Republican?
LMFAO at your comment SLA!!! Yes I guess you're right...she does fit the image!!! LOL
ROFFL!!! Yes she's by far THEEEEEEE BLACKEST Republican!!!
And for the records, it really doesn't bother me that some blacks vote republican...OK I'm lying..LOL..It bothers the shish out of me, b/c 9 times out of 10 a black person can not tell you why they support republicans. And they defientely don't understand the history of the republican party....if they did..I'm sre they'd rethink their position!
Oh, I was thinking Alan Keys was likely the black-est (not only his complexion, but his preachy swagger)! But Sheryl might have him beat!
Yeah she irritates the phuck out of me as well. I don't think she's that funny, ell I never thought she was that funny. But she does fit every stereotype placed on the ZPB. When you think of them, you think, dark skinned, big, ugly and LOUD. And ladies and gentlemen, we have the ULTIMATE STEREOTYPE in Sheryl Underwood.
Ell where ole girl with the broom and Ginuwine song for Miss TU, she could be president. LMAO
Lol, right And they probably can't tell you why they support dems either.The history of both parties is interesting.
