Whom Society Rewards

Barr wrapped up her post with a final message to Jolie: "Now go back to making your movies about women who love to handle big guns that shoot hundreds of people to death." [More]

I've had my differences with Angelina Jolie's public statements before, but Roseanne Barr is quite simply a frothing leftist loon. Don't believe me? Spend one minute on her blog (Cynthia McKinney???). Sorry--I don't know a way to take your brain out and scrub it off after you do.

And while I don't generally appreciate Howard Stern's style of entertainment, I do think his observation on Roseanne-ex Tom Arnold is funny and right on.

It seems Roseanne accused Tom of all kinds of physical abuse during their tragic, doomed epic love...

Was it true?

Who knows what reality actually creeps into that squirming mind?

But it might explain that emcee gig...

And yeah, Tom--that was your only talent. Do you have a clue the contempt that arises when a nothing slug like you tells men like me you want the government to control our guns?

The deeper question: Why do we even know these people's names?

Lowering the Barr

How the right is defending Roseanne Barr's racist tweets [More]

There's a difference between "defending" and pointing out the racist hypocrisy of others getting away with essentially the same thing when the butt of the joke is white.

That's the issue, not the transparent media attempt to conflate "conservatives" with racists.

Because there's really nothing else about her worth "defending."

Queen Bee

The big "progressive" takeaway from the Samantha Bee/Roseanne Barr flap is that scripted sexism is now officially less of an outrage than negligent racism.  Everybody can now feel free to use the "c" word with no employment repercussions, right?

And everybody realizes Bee is an anti-gun "dual citizen," right?

Hey, is it also OK now to "reclaim" the "n-word"?

No?

Then the takeaway stands.

"Feminists": You're just not as important.  The preponderance of media excuse-making proves it.
