Roseanne Barr, Staying Classy

  • Bookmark and Share

Celebrity advisors/surrogates--like George Clooney--are a point of pride for Democrats. They like the "cool" factor these celebrities bring to their campaigns. Though their fame brings increased attention and makes their candidates chic, celebrity also elevates people with no other identifiable skills. What, exactly, does Clooney bring to Obama's team of 300 foreign policy advisors(?), for instance.

Oh well, at least Republicans don't have to deal with Roseanne Barr. Calling herself "fat old crackpotgranny," Barr blogs every day. Multiple times a day. About everything. A small sampling should suffice:

Story Continues Below Ad ↓

Regarding Angelina Jolie, who may like John McCain:

I cannot imagine a worse human being as president of our country. The guy is an idiot, a rageaholic, and an old fart who called his wife a "maureen dowd".

"Maureen Dowd" is her euphemism for a bad word.

I have no idea how to preface this rant:

all celeb news is calling me to come on their shows and talk about my "attack" on brangelina. They say nothing about my attacks on howard dean, pumas, obama, hillary, maureen dowd, bush cheney, pelosi, congress, religion capitalism and satan though...I liked angelina til i heard her say she likes insane mccain for potus. By the way, I think elizabeth hasselberg is a f'r s're closet case that wants to get whipped by sherri shepherd in a black corset while old babs slaps a riding crop on both of their exposed butt-oxes. love, crackpot granny!

One more selection from Barr's loony stream-of-consciousness writing:

I do not like that angelina says she likes mccain. mccain is too old to be pres. and should choose dr kervorkian as his vice. he is not a hero at all, and gave up his buddies one day after capture...this is not the kind of man who can lead us. In fact, no man can, and that is why Hillary/cynthia mckinney is my choice for president convention or no, and I will only do what Hillary/cynthia tells me to do from now on, presidency or no!!!

Most moonbat celebs leak out their craziness a little bit at a time--and it usually happens when they are otherwise impaired by some substance. But these separate posts are all from the same day--yesterday(8/18/08). No doubt Hillary Clinton hopes Barr will hitch a ride on the mothership the next time it's in orbit.

Poor Democrats, with supporters like Roseanne Barr, who needs a Right Wing Attack Machine?

This, from someone

This, from someone who first admits she's a "crackpot".

Her blogs remind me of the purported question by Winston Churchill to a chattering woman, "Madame, have you no unexpresssed thoughts?".

Still crazy after all these

left wing attack wabbit

well, isn't that nice .. rosie laying out her philosophical anchovies to rot in the sun .. one does wonder, though, if her scranchings are real to her or just something she does to keep her celebrity status in the spotlight .. if the former, she needs a needle or a bottle or bothe ... if the latter, probably the same ..

never look a gift skunk in the tail ..

Rosie, you give women a bad

Rosie, you give women a bad name. Its women like you that make it impossible for women to be president, especially liberal women.

You are nuts and you need to cut back on the meds. or stop drinking.

I am normally repulsed by

I am normally repulsed by the site or thought of Roseanne; however, I agree with her that Obama was crammed down the throat of Democrats.  It reminds me of the fact that McCain was crammed down the throat of a lot of Republicans.  Sure, most of us here would MUCH rather have McCain in office than Obama but can we honestly say we are passionate about McCain like the other choices we had like Romney or Giuliani, etc?  How did McCain and Obama become the final candidates?  Could it be that the MSM was just as unfair to Hilary as it was to Romney and Giuliani?

Thanks Bigtimer.  I was hoping I was not the only one that felt this way.  The MSM were "shaping" this election from the very beginning.  It's a damn shamed.  We really have a RINO (McCain) running against SUPER-LIBERAL (Obama).  This is not DEMOCRATS vs. REPUBLICANS.  

It's a demonstartion of

It's a demonstartion of how far left Roseanne is that she has circled completely around and her opinion about Obama stands next to ours on the right.

I always wondered where

I always wondered where the liberals ended up when they kept sailing further and further to the left. When you think about it, Roseanne is kind of like a political Chistopher Columbus...:)

I'm just waiting for the whackos over at Dkos and MMFA to lambaste her now :)  They did the same thing to the whack-job Mike Malloy because he came out saying Obama was a bad choice for the democrats.

I was struck by his comment

I was struck by his comment about "republican fascists". Isn't it strange how two groups of people, liberals and conservatives, can see the landscape so differently? Liberals demand government supremacy over everything - from business and taxes to speech (Fairness Doctrine, political correctness, and Global Warming) and they don't recognize those fascist tendencies in themselves. It's like they live inside of a mirror.

McNotObama '08

mm...I second that

mm...I second that motion...

Btw...the link from fairlight was full of how she feels about Obama and Michelle, Oprah  ect...especially about the tow O's and abortion, partial birth abortion ect...

I was surprised.

Can't help but wonder how crazy McKinney feels about that too though...not that I really really care....lol.

I know!!  I got the impression from that rant that Roseanne is somewhat pro-life.  Amazing :)  

Yeah Chris

For some reason, I'm getting an inkling of a song lyric...

For something so wrong, it's just gotta be right.

Like that....scary, huh?

Hi Blonde,

Long time no comment/reply! I know by "right", you mean "correct" and not the political "right". Otherwise, you just wrote a liberal song! :)

When did her show end? Over a decade ago?

I'm on pins and needles waiting to hear what Angela from Who's The Boss thinks about the election.  Perhaps you can dig up some salacious trash talk about Dick Cheney from Angela Lansbury.

Sometimes blog spots like this lighten the mood around here...we all get tired of this election at times.

This is not a joke post.

This is not a joke post. The guy who wrote this was completely serious about this topic. Just like NB is 100% serious about their absurd, boring, and annoying View pieces.

It wasn't until everyone pointed out how silly this topic was that people started claiming it was a joke.

 

Yeah, but a lot of you ask,

Yeah, but a lot of you tend to ask this like, "Who cares what this Obama thinks? Who is he anyway? Why is he being discussed here?" It's MRC's site, they can bring up any topic they darn well want. It's your choice whether or not to participate. 

McNotObama '08

You said it much better than I did.

No, I didn't. You said what I was thinking also. These volunteer "relevancy cops" get tiresome. 

McNotObama '08

That's fine Chris and I

That's fine Chris and I completely agree.  MRC can do whatever they want.  I just get annoyed when they sprinkle a garbage into a website with great articles.  Seems so unnecessary.  It cheapens every other article.

It's tough to take the rest of the articles seriously when the one at the top is about Rosanne Barr's blog.  

It's my party and I can cry if I want to is a-ok with me, but don't expect me to take you seriously once the tears start to flow.

I disagree entirely. There were some great articles written today that were meaningful, interesting, and relevant.

The Rosanne Barr piece was none of the above.

I'd lighten up had this piece been facetious, but it wasn't.

Yeah ..right

I remember you and your posts now, just saw an oh so informative one of yours on another thread...

Yeah, you bring back memories alright.

I'm moving on...you may need to do the same since you just don't like this blog post.

Oh by the way, the dead horse called...you know the rest.

We need a better class of troll here? I would love to be able to calculate how many minutes of your life you've wasted making that same exact post. Seems a bit pointless if you ask me.  Not a day goes by where you don't recycle this same tired line.  While the environment appreciates you're dedication to recycling, the rest of us get it, no need to reiterate.

Not

And you're the dead horse.

An apt line is just that.  And it applies to you, fella, in Spades. 

I'm glad to see it chaps your a** though.

The new ones are so gauche.

B-londe, it doesn't bother

B-londe, it doesn't bother me at all, it's just bizarre that you feel the need to repeat the same line over and over again.

You can say what you want, by all means, get your parrot on.

Fact of the matter is jokes get old, like, really old. Just letting you know.

"Flat Tire!"

"I think this joke has run it's course, don't you?"

Name that flick.

Oh..I see you st-t-t-t-utter, too.

Sheesh, troll on, Ginger.

We need a better class of troll, here.

You're just not cutting the mustard. 

David Gregory, do you know which damn network you lie for? ~ Uncle Jimbo, @Blackfive

 

You remind me of my

You remind me of my favorite childhood toy, Teddy Ruxpin.

At first he was funny and original and entertaining, but after you flipped the tape a few times it got a little old. The same story over and over? It lost it's novelty pretty quick even when I was a young, attentive child.

Teddy was entirely unaware of my growing boredom, so he just kept telling the same stories over and over again.  Similar to how you can't afford new jokes, my parents couldn't afford new tapes.

Eventually, I gave Teddy Ruxpin away.  

The lesson of the tale? Be wary of boring those around you with the same material day in and day out.

Yawn...

David Gregory, do you know which damn network you lie for? ~ Uncle Jimbo, @Blackfive

 

I know! That's exactly how

Except for her presidential campaign, though, which I hear is going swimmingly. She's taken a page right out of the Ron Paul Playbook for Presidential Campaign Popularity.

There are VERY few people in the world who can make Tom Arnold look like the smart one!  She's a member of a really small club.

Non-celebs would be institutionalized

But not Roseanne. Just these clips alone are evidence of psychological dysfunction. Somewhat satirical evidence would be her mentioning that she favors Cynthia McKinney for any political office - perhaps not so satirical...
