Barkin mad: Actress hopes hurricane kills ‘every pro-life’ SOB; Cher hopes Akin gets raped
Life Site News ^ | 8/27/2012 | Ben Johnson

August 27, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) - In the aftermath of the Family Research Council shooting, prominent voices on the Left have not tapped down their violent rhetoric against their opponents. Two Baby Boomer celebrities have taken to Twitter to hope pro-life, pro-family individuals and U.S. Congressman Todd Akin suffer a drowning or a same-sex rape, respectively.

Ellen Barkin, 58, played the temptress in 1989's "Sea of Love."

On Sunday, Ellen Barkin expressed her hope that Tropical Storm Isaac would smash up the Republican National Convention in Tampa and drown all its delegates.

She retweeted the message of one of her followers that read: “C’mon #Isaac! Wash every pro-life, anti-education, anti-woman, xenophobic, gay-bashing, racist SOB right into the ocean! #RNC ” Barkin did not express any disagreement in her retweet.

The storm is expected to grow into a Category 1 hurricane before slamming into the Gulf Coast on Wednesday, the seventh anniversary of Hurricane Katrina.

After a number of followers asked if it wasn’t extreme to wish death upon one’s political opponents, Barkin instead blamed the website Twitchy, which is owned by Michelle Malkin, for reporting the tweet. However, as Twitchy pointed out in response, it hadn’t yet reported the event.

Strong language on abortion – that of Senate candidate Todd Akin – also inspired Sixties warbler and mother of transgender “son” Chaz Bono Cher to call for the congressman to be raped by an AIDS victim. Cher tweeted that it would be an act of “kama” - presumably karma - if Missouri Congressman would “get raped by man with HIV/AIDS. Nothing will happen, right? Body shuts down as defense mechanism.”

The opening of the Republican convention has been postponed until Tuesday because of Isaac. Today’s theme, “We Can Do Better,” and keynote speakers such as Sen. Rand Paul and former Democratic Congressman Arthur Davis, will be plugged into an abbreviated, three-day convention.

Barkin, who describes herself as a “Bronx girl” on her Twitter page, has posted a number of vitriolic tweets in the past.

Despite the coverage tweets such as this week’s have earned her, social media outreach may not be her prowess. After the controversy, someone alerted her to an internet hoax on “FB.”

The 58-year-old Barkin, who began her acting career with an uncredited role in Cheech and Chong’s 1978 movie Up in Smoke, replied by asking, “What is FB?”

All this comes from those who advocate "tolerance"...

Ah yes, the hypocrisy of the so-called "liberals" on full display. Out of one corner of their mouths they preach "acceptance" and celebrate diversity, and embrace people you disagree with etc. etc. But then when they actually disagree with someone, watch out. You'll never see such vile, rude, crude, personal, and vicious attacks. You'll see someone willfully ignorant who will lie and/or change the subject when they've run out of talking points and personal attacks.

From now on, I change the term Liberal Barking Moonbat, to Liberal BARKIN Moonbat, in honor of her hate.

Sounds like Barkin is against all Muslims. That seems to be a contradiction of Dims thinking.

The irony of it is that Southern Decadence is this week in New Orleans, just like during the week of Katrina.

Probably 50 or so pictures there, and not a genuine smile in any one of them.

She might not be able to. Plastic Surgery does that.

She’s got a new comedy series on FOX. Would be a real shame if no one tuned in.

At least that is the comment of those atheists who say that Judeo-Christian morality is useless in the world and at best ‘redundant’ because people are innately kind and gentle.

Just had that discussion with an atheist acquaintance friend the other night. Where does your sense of right and wrong come from I asked. 'Oh I just know it'..... Just look back through history at all those benevolent atheistic societies and cultures....

These people are in some serious need of God's saving grace. Pray for them.

Thank you, that is the most appropriate response.
God Bless You

;ey's see. Eyes done, chin lifted, cheeks enhanced, nose job, lips plumped. All that money wasted. I think she needs to be audited to see if she's paying the right amount of taxes. Oh heck, let's audit the entire botox crew and get it over with!

My Grandmother’s piasan made 2,500 pairs of shoes for Cher. When she would go visit, he would take her by Cher’s house to meet her. The Housekeeper said Cher is never ever there and Chastity was alone with her.

I believe that. Cher is a total waste of flesh and air. I would never want 2,500 pairs of shoes, 200 maybe :). Glad the piasan made the money though.

Cher is always an idiot, it's just a matter of whether or not anyone notices on any given day. Barkin, OTOH, is trying desperately to get her name in print anywhere she can so her forthcoming show isn't DOA.
