A Tale of Two (Unhinged) Rosies
Voight, Roseanne says, “is a frightened little girl in a pink ballet tutu, who acts like Obama just wandered in from the rain forest with a bone thru his nose and a communist pamphlet in his loincloth.” As far as Angelina, she’s Voight’s “evil spawn,” while Brad Pitt is “vacuous.” (Curiously, Roseanne refers to Pitt as Jolie’s hubby, while the rest of the free world recalls that Jolie and Pitt said they won’t marry until gay marriage is legally recognized throughout the country.)
And then the real reasons for the vitriolic attack on Jolie and Pitt — as well as Roseanne’s ignorance — become all too clear: Angelina stated that she hasn’t decided for whom she’ll vote. In Roseanne’s world, not coming out adamantly in support of Obama means you must be evil.
Unless your name is Roseanne, apparently. Because she’s certainly had her share of doubts.
After saying that Barack Obama has a “blind spot “when it comes to feminism and lambasting the Democratic party for “shoving (Obama) down everyone’s throats,” she congratulated country musician Toby Keith’s support of Obama, saying “thank God you saved your ass by coming out as a democrat for Obama.” Meanwhile, Roseanne has said she will vote for Green Party nominee Cynthia McKinney.
So what should we assume this means about her ass?
My first thought: it means her head is too firmly lodged up there to see her own ignorance. Take, for example, her screed about Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s charitable work.
angelina jolie and her vacuous hubby brad pitt make about forty million dollars a year in violent psychopathic movies and give away three of it to starving children trying to look as if they give a crap about humanity as they spit out more dunces that will consume more than their fair share and wreck the earth even more. (just sayin’).
Three million? Try $8 million last year and another $14 million this year from selling the rights to first photo exclusives of their newborn twins. Not that the pair are content to merely write checks. In addition to Jolie’s travels as a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees — which included spending Christmas 2006 with Cambodian refugees in Cambodia — and Pitt’s establishment and efforts on behalf of the Make It Right foundation assisting victims of Hurricane Katrina, the pair have also established, funded, and recruited other celebrities to participate in the Jolie-Pitt Foundation to assist in humanitarian crises around the world.
Meanwhile, Rosanne Barr has done what, precisely? Well, Roseanne has ostensibly made some contributions to charity by donating some of the proceeds from her performances. Presumably the rest of the money went to the lapband, nose job, face lift, breast reduction, chin implant, and liposuction surgeries she’s said to have had recently.
Of course, Roseanne has since offered an apology of sorts, admitting that she doesn’t know Jolie or Pitt and based her opinion entirely on their representation in the media. But that, too, is an example of Roseanne’s “do what I say, not what I do” outlook on life. Just days before, she’d written an entry encouraging Americans to boycott such celebrity coverage because it funds “Rupert Murdoch’s piece of the right wing ‘war machine’ empire.”
Perhaps the problem is, as Elizabeth Snead at the Los Angeles Times considers, that Roseanne’s indulging in a bit of drunk blogging. Certainly her rants do come across the way Snead described them: “a bit boozy and reckless, like some angry, crazy old broad still sitting at the bar for last call.”
If that’s the case then Roseanne might want to consider acquiring another thing in common with Rosie O’Donnell, who famously blogged about her plans to give up booze.
But why look so deep when the reasons are far more obvious?
It’s not that Roseanne’s crazy; it’s that we are. Just ask the being from the other dimension who told her so.
I knew from a very early age that I was crazed and a witch by patriarchal definition. I knew too however, because I was shown it by a being from another dimension who appeared to me and said: “You will talk about the (female) Shekkinah and her temple priestess and be a witness for he/she/it. You are the only one in your world who is not crazy , and you will always need to reverse what is being said and then reverse it double. Here is the code you will use to stay sane in an insane world: You will see signs that tell you that you are right. If you do not see the sign immediately, then it is not a sign. Signs happen immediately and not outside the NOW. The sign that you are right will be: everyone thinks YOU are crazy.
Although it’s been years since Roseanne Barr has been remotely relevant in the entertainment industry, I have to admit it’s nice to know she can still make me laugh. Only now, she’s become the punch-line of her own joke.
Rosie (you pick which one) I, for one, don’t think you’re crazy.
I think you’re hatefully crazy. In fact, I’ve seen barn mice with more sense.
Katherine, are you trying to lower our IQ’s by making us read what they do and say?
I realize this is VERY politically incorrect, but: what is it with fat loudmouths?
Rosie, Roseanne, Michael Moore… and if I want to be “balanced” I could throw Rush Limbaugh into this category.
Maybe these people should go work on whatever issues are making them shovel food into their faces and stop directing hatred at people they disagree with.
Was it Thoreau who said the mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation?
Emphasis on quiet, Rosies.
i’m not sure, but i think it was me that said…these two lard asses are using air that others could put to better use.
Why do we honor these mentally challenged has beens with our attention. This isn’t true of much in this world – but it is true of these two: If we ignore them – they will go away.
John:
You are correct, but I believe Thoreau was paraphrasing Pink Floyd.
Rosanne Barr? Is she still alive?
Toby Keith has always been a Democrat. But he said he supported Obama, but didn’t know who he was voting for yet. He has a little bit of sense in him, I bet he votes for McCain. Because Toby is not that stupid to vote for B Hussein Obama.
As we used to joke about Navy SEALS, “They aren’t crazy. You have to have a brain to be crazy.”
Oh big deal, people rant and rave all the time on blogs. Only a shrill little cons, like Michael Savage with his hatefilled curse laden rave about her blog, care. Honestly after listenting to him spew his garbage last Tuesday about Roseanne, he is the best example of mental disorders of vermin in the media today. Most people in the world don;t take her seriously or read her blog. I could care even less what some bs right wing hack has to say about some bs left wing blogger.
If this kind of stuff is important to you, you need to get a life.
Ah yes, the Rosie/annes – magna cum laude graduates of the Julius Streicher School of Etiquette and Tolerance….
why would anyone be incensed over what is said about angelina jolie and brad pitt. they are just our puppet show of the moment, tragically not anywhere near as deep. if you’re mad at roseanne barr, why not be mad at say, charlie rose who turned out to be quite the schmuck for obama. he hangs with arianna huffington, the dowd clone who produces huffington post. disagree with arianna’s dumb nasty cult of adoring followers, terrorists, anti-semites and obama zombies, and see what happens. roseanne barr crazily mouthing off is no better or worse than that.
You realize that these 2 have found their niche – they know what hot buttons to hit to get some attention and use it pretty well – sort of like little fifi who craps on the rug when you don’t pay attention to her.
Actually Tom, I think you’re onto something. Roseanne might have noticed that no one’s paying attention to her, and decided she can do this rabid hippo routine also.
Whoops, “rabid hippo” is definitely not PC either, my apologies.
The two Rosies? Are we sure they’re not the same woman. I mean has anyone ever seen them together at the same time in the same spot? I doubt it.
“Julius Streicher School of Etiquette and Tolerance….”
So they walk around in jack boots whipping people and edit a racist newspaper?
What is the name of that “law” that says the first person who reachs for the irrelevant Nazi/Soviet analogy has lost the argument?
What’s up with the lack of capitalization and punctuation? Is this another way of thumbing her nose at establishment norms? Or is she really just that stupidly uneducated? I’m sure she could afford a steno to recopy her screeds and tidy them up.

In the Bronx of my youth, they were called Dirty Marys. But I guess Dirty Rosies would work too.
Judy makes an excellent point.

Here’s my take on the Rosies. I wrote it for one but it applies to both:

Cletus: looks like the huffington post’s hall monitors are out in force making sure everyone stays in line.
Just another attention grab by Roseanne. She’s fallen so low that she’s been shilling timeshares for Tahiti Village in Las Vegas on the radio. Pretty pathetic.
I next expect to see her pitching sleep number beds with Linsay Wagner. Just a matter of time.
Roy,
you’re on to something, thanks for the tip!
Apparently Roseanne has multiple personality disorder or did at one point. I remember hearing Jay Mohr once say that while on the cast of SNL it was always crazy when Roseanne was going to be the guest. Sometimes when preparing the sketches the cast would walk into the room and she would be sitting cross legged in the middle of the taking on the personality of a little girl.
He might have wrote about in his book about social anxiety disorder.
Sorry. It was Roseanne Barr that had mpd.
It is sad what the Roses have degenerated into. That last comment about the being from another dimention sounds a great deal as if Roseanne has had a psychotic break with reality. I hope she gets some help!

Is that the same as:
Too Much Tiger Food
Not Enough Tigers…
?
These women exemplify the worst of the Left: Loud, Stupid, Ignorant, and Proud Of It.
