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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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?"

One Fat, One Skinny.

Only difference is, the team-up of Ren-O'Donnell doesn't make me laugh.

Sounds like Rosie doesn't think much of antiquated notions like personal responsibility. I'd wager there are quite a few people who survived foster care or orphanages and went on to productive, crime-free lives.

I don't feel so well...

There's no way this femmenazi is gaining any power in my state! I'm sure the Cuban contigent has some suprises in store for her should she show her ugly mug in the Miami area! Where are all the people who cry about rights abuses when Janet Reno's on the scene?

Contemplating anyone with Reno The Reader is stomach curdling. I think you're right in your previous post. Reno is all the Rats will run at Bush. The other guy (Peterson?) backed out but polled much better against Bush. They will also probably not waste much money here.

Thanks Teacup. The pictures show the demoRats agenda for Florida. Disarm the great unwashed masses while the limo lib's hide behind their private bodyguards and let Jackboot Janet Reno raise your children up to be good little mind numbed socialist robots!

All Reno need is more gas for her childrens' programs.
