David Begley म्हणाले...: I didn’t know Barr was Jewish.

And what was her firing offense? I can’t recall. Something with Twitter.; ५/१०/१९, ९:२२ PM
FullMoon म्हणाले...: Speakin' of the Animals, here is christelle berthon doing House of Rising Sun with her harmonica. Pretty dang good (for a girl )

traditionalguy म्हणाले...: Good souls have enemies . The best part of Trump’s winning leadership has been the renewed hope strengthening good souls to fight the rigged MSM and win. Go Roseanne, go.; ५/१०/१९, ९:३४ PM
Lawrence Person म्हणाले...: I posted a different Joe Rogan clip Saturday, on the absurdity of "Transwomen" (which is to say men) competing athletically with real woman.; ६/१०/१९, २:०८ AM
Steve म्हणाले...: The world needs more Roseanne; ६/१०/१९, ३:१९ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: That is a pretty chilling interview. They tell her that if she makes them mad again, they are going to cut off her income, but won’t tell her what she is not allowed to say becuase “she knows.”; ६/१०/१९, ५:२० AM
brian म्हणाले...: Isn't the old saying that the road to hell is paved with good intentions?; ६/१०/१९, ८:१७ AM
William म्हणाले...: She had that thing with the elder Bush. She grabbed her crotch and spit during the playing of the national anthem at a ball game. Bush criticized her for that. Nobody in Hollywood joined Bush in his criticism. Some in the press may have frowned upon it, but there was no real outrage. The scandal had a few days to run and then disappeared..... It's instructive to compare how that scandal played out versus this past one. It does appear that the left is far more destructive and vindictive when their sacred things are profaned than when the right takes offense. I'm sure everyone in Hollywood has taken note and that we will not soon hear anyone there say anything sympathetic to Trump. They're really into diversity out there.; ६/१०/१९, ८:२५ AM
Amadeus 48 म्हणाले...: Roseanne made an extremely ill-advised and unfunny tweet about Valerie Jarrett being a product of the Muslim Brotherhood and The Planet of the Apes. Roseanne said later she didn't know that Valerie Jarrett was black.

Really? If you believe that, Medicare-for-All is the plan for you.; ६/१०/१९, ८:३५ AM
William म्हणाले...: Roseanne definitely has some mental problems. I wouldn't advise anyone to offer her unequivocal support. She's said some crazy shit in the past that was passed off with a shrug, but you can't use the insanity defense for p.c. violations. There's no known defense for p.c. violations, unless, of course, you're a liberal in good standing. Even then it's risky.; ६/१०/१९, ८:३५ AM
Dude1394 म्हणाले...: Ralph Northam and Trudeau don’t seem to have a problem with the pc police. Hmmm; ६/१०/१९, ९:५४ AM
bagoh20 म्हणाले...: I also didn't know Valerie Jarrett was Black, probably becuase it doesn't really matter to anything, and she really doesn't look it, although she does look alot like the female lead in Planet of the Apes. Roseanne's maligned joke was spot-on and innocent of racist intent.

She looks good, and sounds very reasonable. I could see being friends with her and enjoying her company, which is something I can't say about many people in Hollywood. Her treatment is a perfect example of the how intolerant and hive-minded Hollywood is.; ६/१०/१९, १०:४३ AM
bagoh20 म्हणाले...: I don't see any signs of mental illness in her. In fact, she seems unusually sane, reasonable, happy, and open-minded to me. The "illness" I see is in the people who feel compelled to attack her. I was no fan of hers before, and I didn't like her National Anthem antics, but that was a simple mistake in humour. There was clearly no animus in it. If she is mentally ill, then we need more of that kind and less of the TDS type, which is dangerous, damaging, and really uncontrollable in those with it.; ६/१०/१९, १०:५५ AM
The Cracker Emcee Refulgent म्हणाले...: Burdon needed better material and should have stayed clean away from any attempt at psychedelic/Now Generation buffoonery. He could have been a revered elder statesmen instead of an oldies station footnote.; ६/१०/१९, ११:२८ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: I didn’t know Valerie Jarret was black, I thought, mistakenly like Roseanne, that she was Iranian, which she could certainly pass for based on brief glimpses on TV. It was a funny joke and the “racism” angle was applied retroactively by others. She was fired by Michelle Obama, basically, for “normalizing” Trump. Well Trump is normal, its the wannabee totalitarians who invent crimes like “dead naming” and punishments like “cancelling” that are not normal.

Trust me, I don’t like Rosanne’s ideas on economics, but at least she doesn’t view politics as a bloodsport, the way so much of the left does and argues for it honestly.; ६/१०/१९, २:१९ PM
hstad म्हणाले...: This song is one of my favorites from "The Animals"! "The House of the Rising Sun" of course is my favorite. As one blogger agreed with me when he said: "Gonna have this played at my funeral, if not I ain't going'.; ६/१०/१९, २:४५ PM
SomeoneHasToSayIt म्हणाले...: I think that whole "if you got some black in you, you're black" crap is racist. Because other instances of that principle are not exactly complimentary. Perhaps you've heard this one: "if you have a huge vat of ice cream, and you add in a teaspoon of dog shit, you no longer have ice cream. You have dog shit." Why would you want a similar condition, but as regards race, then apply? It's ridiculous.; ६/१०/१९, ८:४१ PM
PluralThumb म्हणाले...: Roseanne opened up to the dilemma of middle class working stiffs in America for the rich.
Suggested or introduced a lighter and funnier way to go about family life in such spectrum/predicament.
Lashing out @ Roseanne for any reason, well, I’d rather resurrect Epstein and commit suicide with him the second time about.
My experiment ex-wife grew up on Roseanne & I concur.
My imaginary trophy wife, I will brainwash with Roseanne re-runs.
She is better to be agile enough intellectually to use conditioner after the such. My trophy wife and not Roseanne.
Nice hair !
Let the woman choose her path at will with age, let alone words. What is wrong with that ?
