BARF ALERT!

Only steps from Madonna 's old pad, amid high hedges, valet parking and bayside vistas, Janet Reno reached for celebrity power Sunday -- and her Democratic supporters reached for their checkbooks.

Talk-show host Rosie O'Donnell joined the former U.S. attorney general and candidate for governor at a $250-a-person fund-raiser, held in the swank, tree-lined Brickell Avenue neighborhood south of downtown.

O'Donnell declared her support for the Democratic candidate's challenge of Republican Gov. Jeb Bush, saying Reno's interest in improving Florida's youth and foster-care programs impressed her.

"When I heard she was running, I called up her office and said I would do everything and anything I can," O'Donnell said. "I'll do whatever she wants, right up until election day."

[Teacup]

"I'll do whatever she wants, right up until election day."

EWWWW! Hey what happened to Rosie being a "Bush" supporter? I guess she was just caught up in the 9-11 moment.

[Teacup]

Now isn't that a handsome couple... birds of a feather...what's good for the goose is good for the goose... not that there's anything wrong with it, so long as they don't go searching for guns in each others pockets...

[BOBTHENAILER]

Rosie is a Reno-bush supporter. EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWW

Her first fundraiser will be a pig roast with the two tasty porkers to be feasted upon, shown above in your post.

[Thorondir]

What a team. When Beached Rosie takes our guns away, it will be easier for Death Camp Janet to incinerate us.

Liberalism must be crushed!

[coloradan]

Remember - Both Janet and Rosie want to do all they can to support the children.

[BOBTHENAILER]

Projectile Barf Alert!

Campaign slogan will be as follows:

RENO WILL LICK BUSH IN 02

[Teacup]

Reno's interest in improving Florida's youth and foster-care programs impressed her.

Hey! Where's Paula Poundstone? Now there's a good fund raiser for Reno, LOL,LOL. EWWWWW!

[Walkin Man]

RENO WILL LICK BUSH IN 02

ROTFLMAO!!! You are sick Bob!! buhHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[Teacup]

Heh heh heh, a pig roast, that's a good one.

"Talk-show host Rosie O'Donnell joined the former U.S. attorney general and candidate for governor at a $250-a-person fund-raiser, held in the swank, tree-lined Brickell Avenue neighborhood south of downtown."

"$250 a person" is just a nice way of saying the grandees of Florida's Left won't waste money investing in Reno.

Early after Monicagate broke, Florida's Left had $50,000-a-person fundraisers to keep the Democreep Party afloat financially!

Jackboot Janet's girlfriend - heat up Florida's local talk radio shows with this one!

[Teacup]

Rosie takes our guns away, it will be easier for Death Camp Janet to incinerate us.

Good point. WOW! Men haters, together, camapinging to get our guns, jail all white men, and take our children from us. Good team, NOT!!! Damned scary!

[alancarp]

Hopefully it was a dinner fund-raiser. With Rosie in attendance, the expenses may have out-weighed the receipts.

[oldtimer]

Are you suggesting that John Reno is a carpet muncher? LOL

[Teacup]

ROFLOL! Hey, doesn't Pee Wee Herman live in Florida? HMMM? He should be campainging for Reno too. EWWWW!

[bribriagain]

The demoncraps worst nightmare. Check the polling data.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

Youth and Foster care programs?

That's ironic.

Rosie the hungry hippo munches down on Janet in an effort to beat Bush. Nice headlines.

[BOBTHENAILER]

Jesse Jackson will be brought in to keep Janet OUT DA BUSHES!!!!!!!!!!!!Hehehe

[Teacup]

$250 a plate dinner? That's cheap for Rosie. LOL,LOL, she eats that much daily. Did ya all see her at a Yankee game during the World Series? She sat right behind home plate. Ate the thur the whole game. I'm not kidding. You couldn't help but see her every time the camera was pointed her way.

[Walkin Man]

Question: Name three things that should never be in the same sentence.

Answer: Rosie O'Donnell...Stumps...Janet Reno.

Rosie will disarm you while Reno will take care of your children Florida!

Wow. What babes. The sages were right: truth and beauty walk arm in arm.

[Teacup]

Rosie, Paula, Pee Wee, all want Reno to beat Bush. (That almost sounds nasty doesn't it?)

[jmp702]

The three of them will be hosting a good old fashioned New England Clam bake fund raiser, preceded by four hours of clam digging (bring your own tools) at Rosies beach front cottage.

[mountaineer]

We have Rosie and El Reno, but no pictures of the rest of the starting lineup for the all butch b-ball team, Girls In Plaid. Go team!

[Teacup]

As my mama always said to me "Tell me who you hang around with, and I'll tell you who you are."

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Those two are ugly enough to be a modern art masterpiece.

[Teacup]

HA! HA! HA! With... ...as the coach.

Pee Wee: Hey I like little kids too."

Don't forget Michale Jackson. EWWWW! Oh the thought.

[GOPJ]

Thanks Rosie, Reno pulls in hard core democrats, and no one else. You're really working for us, right? Is this a great country or what?

What's next Rosie, will you hand the election to Jeb on a silver platter? Or better, get some more totally offensive Hollywood elite's to come campaign for Janet? The more outrageous the liberal, the more we like 'em. How good can it get? Travolta, Baldwin? Bring 'em on... please.

Rosie, tell the people of Florida how they don't need guns or bars on windows in inner city neighborhoods (you have a million dollar security system on your home, why don't they? Elite's shouldn't have to look at bars on windows in unsafe neighborhoods, really they're just soooooooo tacky). Tell them Janet will outlaw guns and bars on windows. Do it for Jeb. Floridians will just love to hear that. Also, explain that every rapist gets one free grope. Voters will be fighting their way to the polls for you.

Good pictures. Thanks.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Let me guess, these two met at a ladies-only party.

[BOBTHENAILER]

I, not having personal knowledge, would never suggest that janet is a carpet muncher, I am simply saying the campaign slogan has a nice TOUCH to it.

I know for a fact that in accordance with the slogan, Rosie will help Reno LICK BUSH.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Janet Reno reached for celebrity power Sunday

More proof that Hollywood can manufacture anybody into a celebrity. It's pretty sad that so many people are so easily led.

[coloradan]

Who's the one in the middle?

[Teacup]

Don't forget. Rosie has armed body gaurds for her children. Oh, but she's special. The rest of us don't need protection.

I wonder if she's off her prozac? I wonder if Janet's programs for children include Christian children, like the ones in WACO? Or Cuban Children? Only if they are put up for adoption I guess, so people like Rosie and Paula Poundstone can adopt.

[mountaineer]

Paula Poundstone, playing power forward.

[Teacup]

That's pretty bad if Rosie is all Reno can get as a Celeb.

[Teacup]

PING

[BOBTHENAILER]

Great Pictures. Isn't that the all star cast of the new movie GIRLS IN THE VAN,?

You know, the one about Hildabeast's senate campaign frollick?

[GOPJ]

And to the hungry Rosie says, "Let them eat cake." Don't cha just love the elite's?

Don't forget. Rosie has armed body guards for her children. Oh, but she's special. The rest of us don't need protection.

[BOBTHENAILER]

We should bookmark all pictures and posts here and rent a billboard in FL for display during the campaign. This is just too much fun. Seeing her get whipped will be almost as much fun. Her polls are horrible, as is only fitting.

[hattend]

Notice there is no mention how many people were there. At $250 a pop, looks like $500 was raised.

"When I heard she was running, I called up her office and said I would do everything and anything I can," O'Donnell said. "I'll do whatever she wants, right up until election day."

I guess that means even Rosie isn't voting for the Butcher of Waco either.

[Teacup]

I heard she was having a hard time raising money and her polls numbers are down. I guess she was the best the DNC had in Florida. Shoot, OJ might get more votes, LOL.

[Stultis]

The demoncraps worst nightmare. Check the polling data.

Yeah, are these folks supporting Shakey delusional?

Since Sept 11th competence is king in politics. Jeb's got competence comin' outa his backside. I wonder if more savvy Democrats in Florida are concluding that Jeb will be extremely tough for even their best to beat. If so they may acquiesce en masse to Reno so they can blame defeat on a poor candidate rather than the bankruptcy of their ideas.

[Teacup]

I posted a thread last year about Rosie's depression and her taking of prozac. In the article she was basically saying, that her comments about gun control were not totally her fault since she was depressed during the time she made the statements. The article also went on to critizie the fact that several stories had come out mentioning how she has armed body gaurds protecting her children. They accompany her children to school, etc.

[Stultis]

Jesse Jackson will be brought in to keep Janet OUT DA BUSHES!!!!!!!!!!!!Hehehe

These two would probably end up trolling for beaver together. (Contemplating that three-way is certain to bring up last night's champaigne.)

[Teacup]

ALL! Here is more from another article with more info.

.

Asked about her chances of defeating Bush, Reno said bluntly: ``I'm going to win.''

Both Reno and O'Donnell, a foster parent, said they shared a commitment to helping children.

``It's a big problem in the state of Florida. There are over 3,000 children today available for adoption, free for adoption in the state, in foster custody,'' O'Donnell said.

``Chances are they will age out of the system, they will go right into welfare and into prison, so we need to do better for this generation of kids.''

The comedian owns a home on Miami Beach's Star Island, a gated community of mansions along Biscayne Bay. The closed event was held at a private home.

O'Donnell, an outspoken critic of the National Rifle Association, has become politically active in Democratic causes and once engaged in a memorable on-air, tense debate on gun control with Tom Selleck.

Analysts said the appearance with O'Donnell could pose problems for Reno when she attempts to court voters in areas heavily composed of gun owners, sportsmen and military personnel.

``Anything that connects Reno to gun control means Democrats lose big in north Florida,'' said Susan MacManus, a political scientist at the University of South Florida in Tampa.

What??? Does this mean the DNC has this election rigged already?

[MizSterious]

Happy New Year, Teacup. But I question how much help Rosie can give Jackboot Reno--she's not as popular as she once was. For instance, Ace Hardware hired her for a spokesperson, then promptly backed out--seems a lot of people (no doubt a number of Freepers included) wrote to Ace threatening a boycott. She lost the K-Mart account in a similar manner. Her teevee show ratings were pretty much in the dumpster last time I checked. With clout like that, who'd want her to "help?"
