Roseanne

UPDATE:
A day after Roseanne's blogs from below attacking Brangelina, Dowd, McCain, Edwards and others, she responded to the response

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!

She added another post three hours later saying:

i do not know brangelina and do not mean to personally impugn them as they might be good people in the flesh, but the media's images of them are smelly and vile, and I must always attack the media's representation of what is good or cool, because those who inhabit the media world of glamour and entertainment and fashion and gossip are horrid people who have no talent of any kind, and yet think of themselves as tastemakers.



PREVIOUSLY:

Roseanne has taken up blogging on her website in a big way, and is voicing her contempt on all sorts of issues multiple times a day, from Hollywood celebrities to the candidates to Maureen Dowd.

In a post entitled "Jon Voight," Roseanne lashes out at Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, and Jolie's supposed comments on being a still-undecided voter. After calling Voight a "used tampon" she writes:

jon voight your evil spawn 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').
Also miss jolie says she likes mccain too and hasn't decided who to endorse....huh? Aren't you supposed to be somewhat enlightened, or do you not know that the african daughter you hold in every picture had parents who suffered and died because of the republican party's worldwide economic assault on africa over the last few decades since reagan? whaaaa...??????!!!! (for that matter, the thai and vietnamese sons you are photo'd with weekly too!!!? who's pictures you sell to raise money to help the poor? Their families are victims of America's right wing military incursions too. Mccain wants to continue with the idea of war for profit...the americans are over that thinking now! They have drugged our troops and lower classes into supporting their oil business atrocities for long enough. We want to save not lose our souls thank you. Now go back to making your movies about women who love to handle big guns that shoot hundreds of people to death. Ps....it might be good for your asian and african children's self esteem to know you support a brown man for the leader of the free world.)

In another entry called "Elizabeth Edwards" she writes:

tell your husband to man up and claim his baby. Divorce him. take your kids and go to the beaches in southern france and then go see gaudi's art in barcelona.

And she minces no words when it comes to McCain in multiple entries slamming him on all kinds of issues. In an entry called "McCain is pro-life" she writes:

He looks like a fetus and his wife looks like king tut. they can both worship the holy hidden orifice from beyond the great behind where fetuses (white ones) live in heavenly peace!!!

Another entry displays her thoughts on Maureen Dowd in its title, 'Maureen "C-Word" Dowd'

I can't tell if Roseanne is giving Angelina praise for all of her hard work and contributions on behalf of charitable organizations or if she is just a really unhappy and jealous woman who needs to vent her frustrations. And what's with her calling Jon Voight a used tampon!? Clearly, Roseanne is back to being the same a**hat who demands attention no matter how she gets it. Remember her and Tom Arnold and their infamous tatooed butts that they flashed everyone or that annoying, screeching way she sang the national anthem while grabbing her crotch and then spitting. Yisirrrrrey, a class act all the way.

Gimme a break! Jolie hasn't done a day of hard work in her life. Traveling with a retinue, photo ops, shaking hands and writing checks is not "hard work". Obviously, you missied the very point Rosie was trying to make (about bradgelina): fluff no substance.

Because, surely, Roseanne has done so much humanitarian work in her life that she has quite the pedestal to stand on and look down on others.

"I have a huge crush on President Bush. I saw him at a recent fundraiser, and he's a babe. He's got that Ronald Reagan charm. I think he's hot. I respect his wife, but if he wasn't married I'd be putting on my cowboy boots and coming around." -- Roseanne Barr

BAD BOYS?!?!?!?!?! BUSH?!?!?!?!?!?!?! OH MY! Never, ever did I think I'd hear that in the same sentence and used in a sensuous way. I'll never be able to look at a truly hot, bad boy again and keep a straight face. Too bloody funny!!!

I agree with Roseanne and her insulting but 'truthiness' posts are great. I think she was harsh about Maureen Dowd.

So glad that Roseanne has spoken out against McCain. I hope that the working class people who have listened to her in the past will do so again.

Must agree that it is way not cool to call a woman the c-word, but worse to hear that McCain used that term to describe his wife in front of reporters. That's deplorable and disrespectful. Jerk.

People with money have to pony up if they claim to care about the world.

I don't appreciate the lead line of the article "Roseanne has taken to blogging ... in a big way." Why does calling attention to her weight, as a not-so subtle pun, have any place in this article? In a world that is hyper-sensitive about offending or stereotyping certain protected groups, why is it still acceptible to bash fat people?

"in a big way" is bashing fat people? I have my own share of issues that piss me off and push my buttons, but I think you are going way overboard here. Hypersensitve I'd say. Roseanne made a huge success out of being a 'big' woman, empowering millions of women along the way, and now you're banning the use of the word big? Ay yay yay yay yay.

Roseanne's picture looked great. I saw or heard no fat people bashing, nor did I take the lead-in line as such. Didn't even think of it until you threw it out there. I think your own hypersensitivity is coming through.

Thank God, a celebrity who isn't afraid to go after one of their own! Somebody once said celebrity is a kind of freemasonry. Angelina Jolie is a perfect example of a fellow cultist. She kind of likes McCain!!!
Why Angelina do you kind of like McCain? Because you... enjoy the same cookies? Or have looked into each other's souls? Or is it because you go to the same palaces together?
That's what really happens at the upper class level. They run into each other socially and understand that they all dine on the blood of the masses.
Angelina pretends to shoot people in her movies. And McCain pretends he shot people in Nam.
They are both preening, needy narcissists who demand center stage at all times. And neither are uncomfortable selling violence through the media. Soul twins and perfect fakes.
Roseanne is a working class chick who isn't afraid of making a fellow rich person uncomfortable.
So, they probably won't invite her back.
You go, Rosie.

I have an idea.

When the Congress reinstitutes the draft because they are not going to have enough foot soldiers to fight America's unending wars on the other side of the world.,

then maybe the people who thinks Roseanne's kind of talk is too harsh will wish their were millions of her talking out against it.

It's true, Angelina and Brad make a lot of really violent, horrible, brutal movies. Sick, really. Tasteless. Stupid. Why would anyone who cares about children make movies like that? I'm glad Rosie mentioned it.

Rosanne has been on point for some time now. I saw how she rejoined the progressive world, maybe there is hope for Angelina too. Brad has done some stuff for Katrina victims rebuilding a neighborhood. But if Angelina can't come out and say she is for Obama for some political reason, she is being two faced. When you have their kind of money, the greed can prevent you from wanting to pay your fair share of taxes. Look at Wesley.

Why should she be for Obama. Many liberal progressives are not, even though Obamabots are having a real hard time getting it. Many will vote against Obama, many democrats who are not racist, who want universal healthcare and who want our troops to come home will vote for McCain, when you realize this, you will start to understand what is really going on in election 08.

The Hollywood elite support McCain because Obama wants the mega rich to pay their fair share while giving the middle class a break. Most rich want to stay that way and that is their only true motivation when it comes to politics.
