Robin Williams gave new meaning to the term "tape delay" at the Academy Awards. Before presenting the award Sunday for best animated feature, he paused to rip a large piece of white tape off his mouth and then proceeded to mock those who connect cartoon characters with pro-gay messages.And I missed this? Damn.
"They tell me now that SpongeBob is gay. SquarePants is not gay. Tight pants maybe. SpongeBob Hot Pants? You go, girl!"
Williams suggested that other cartoon characters through history also might have been gay -- and he didn't spare Disney icons, although Disney-owned ABC was airing the awards show.
"What about Donald Duck? Sailor top, no pants. Hello?" Williams said.
"Bugs Bunny. More dresses than J. Edgar Hoover at Mardi Gras. Hello?" Williams concluded.
