After reading that I am even more convinced that Hillary Clinton must NOT be the choice for the Democratic nomination. That screed was sadly full of fail. I mean shiat, did she really call a Democrat that used to be a state senator for a South Chicago district... racist and anti-labor? He used to be a farking civil rights lawyer you stupid fatty!

I'm sure Obama is just all broken up about this.

She's backing Hillary while simultaneously slamming The Oprah for being a closeted Republican?

I see Roseanne's schizophrenia is back.

TFA: just proves how stupid americans are

Before you remove the splinter from your neighbor's eye, Roseanne, you might consider learning how to spell "Barack" and "Schwarzenegger." We'll leave capitalization for the next lesson.

I'd be really cautious insulting her, people. She knows our national anthem, and is not afraid to use it.

Barack Obama is back in the running after a blistering misspelled tirade from Roseanne Barr- and we all know how relevant she is today (not).

How is Roseanne Barr relevant to anything?

 
tuna fingers 2008-01-11 10:56:49 AM  
Nice cleavage, Roseanne! Lots of hate in your post, so it was difficult to stomach. I did scroll back up and said to myself (again) "nice cleavage".

 
schiefaw 2008-01-11 10:57:33 AM  
I am a long way from California, but I thought that "the governator" has actually initiated a lot of "progressive" programs. I thought the big beef with him was that he was not Republican enough.

/I could be wrong. Not my state.

Some union's aren't all that bad. They help balance out the unadulterated greed share holders have and would love to see a 60 hour work week for better profits.

Well, she's right about Dr. Phil.

Fatty is a word that strikes home to many of us Farkers

I'm glad to see Roseanne trying to replace the two "iron my shirt" guys as the single most influential moment in swinging the elections. Unfortunately, she seems to want to swing it back in Obama's favor.

/Burp

Good point. Considering that's 99% of America I'd say he's got a good shot.

I mean look at all those people who voted for Bush. Do you think they're able to think beyond "OMIGOD a turrist is under ma bed!"

Perhaps she's very intelligent and also happens to support Barack. She figures "Hey, people don't really have much respect for me. Perhaps if I pretend to support Hillary and make some misspelled rant about Barack, people might be scared away from her."

I don't know, he might have a point about Roseanne having some really profound points in that treatise. After all, I got intimidated by the big words in the first paragraph and came here for some help from our Fark intellectuals:

Obama, Barr posited, "backs right wing corporate racist anti worker bullshiat."

Then I went back and tried to wade through the rest of that high-skool miedjumacated screed.

Philbb... if you want to spend your time analyzing that gibberish for what important points it might contain... more power to ya!

Gold like this needs to be Farkived.

Here ya go (verbatim):

barak obama

is an empty suit selling "hope" in lieu of Truth. Oprah Winfrey helped to elect Arnold Swartzenegger. I have no doubt that she voted her purse by doing this, as she is a large land owner in California, and that ilk fears Dems because they do not want to pay their "fair share" of Cali tax. Oprah has given us Swartzenegger and Dr. Phil. If that was not offensive enough to decent thinking people, now she brings us Obama. He has no ideas, no plan and nothing to add other than the cynical pacification of the masses with bedtime stories about hope, while calling Unions "special interest groups" that need to be done away with.
Obama votes with Bush constantly funding this terrible endless war. Oprah, you play the race card and the gender card too.
You are a closeted republican and chose Barak Obama because you do not like other women who actually stand for something to working American Women besides glamour, angels, hollywood and dieting!
When Americans find out that Obama backs right wing corporate racist anti worker bullshiat, they will not vote for him, and the victory will go to the most racist right wing republican ever.... Mccain, who is a fascist! That the culinary service workers in vegas have promised barak their vote,( he is anti union in his votes) over edwards, who is a pro-union man, just proves how stupid americans are and how they can be tricked so easily by the color of a person's skin...exactly what MLK hated!
Obama doesn't even back reproductive rights for any woman! It is historical that Oprah Winfrey, beloved of women, chooses a flashy man with small credentials over a seasoned woman politician with 35 years of experience...and sells that to the female demographic who look to her for inspiration!

Roseanne Barr issued the following tirade against Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) -- misspelled "Barak" -- and Oprah Winfrey, who she dubs a "closeted Republican." Obama, Barr posited, "backs right wing corporate racist anti worker bullshiat."

And Hillary isn't any of those things?

Suicidal Writer 2008-01-11 11:02:55 AM  
So, let me get this straight, Obama backs racist, anti-worker policies?

Ron Paul detractors also call him racist.

Are muckrakers even trying anymore? It's rather ironic that the two candidates that actually addressed the problem of racism the most are being called racist.

The status quo is pathetic.

 
BrianJLG 2008-01-11 11:02:59 AM  
My profile "predictions" aside, Obama can probably win the nom' and the general if he can avoid any major gaffs.

Whomever the Dem' nominee is will automatically get the black and Mexican votes. Welfare cuts and deportation are never pleasing issues to these groups even if the voter isn't on welfare and is a citizen.

Obama will also get the under-25 vote. This is a given. It's cool to be liberal when you're that age (I was!), even though the Carter-esque economic policies Senator Obama puts forth (raise taxes, Raise Taxes, RAISE TAXES!) will hurt this group's job and business prospects for years to come.

But what puts him over the top will be the women. He will get practically all the single woman vote, and a big chunk of the rest. Fundie gals won't vote for him because the big rumor in church these days is that he's a Muslim.

The bottom line is, I think Obama, at this point in time, is the odds-on-favorite to be our next President.

And that's fine - we'll get through it.

Maybe Obama will ask Rosanne Barr to be his running mate, heh heh.

dersk 2008-01-11 11:03:39 AM  
I'm surprised that she didn't mention that Obama's also both a racist Christian and a double-super-secret Muslim agent. Why, I heard he's actually the one behind those Ron Paul pamphlets!

Wasn't Roseanne a prostitute in her more younger more disgusting looking ways?

Didn't Tom Arnold biatch Slap her and told her to Shut the fark up when Real men are talking?!

Has Roseanne not learned her lesson and is somehow looking for another asskicking?

 
fawlty 2008-01-11 11:04:49 AM  
That was historical.

McCain a racist fascist? If I were John, I would slap a slander suit on her fat ass. I think that statement is reckless enough to overcome the public person test in Sullivan. I also think it's slander per se.

 
dogfood 2008-01-11 11:04:50 AM  
If she would have quit after her first sentance she would have been alright.

Maybe, but "fattie" bears with it an image of a 19 year old do-able chubby chick. "Fatty" reminds me of a middle-aged unhittable slob, kind of like Roseanne.

/who am I kidding. I'd hit Roseanne, and even take pictures for you all.

Shrugging Atlas 2008-01-11 11:06:30 AM  
Roseanne,

Your rant reminds me of a sage piece of advice once offered by Vernon Wormer, Dean of Faber College. I think you'll find it applies to your situation:

Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life.
