Barr and Bee: What Do They Really Represent?

So we’re supposed to believe that a Chick-fil-A hating, socialist loving, foul-mouthed former Hillary and Bill Clinton supporter, and 9/11 Truther who once sang the worst rendition of our National Anthem in the history of our nation—afterwards grabbing her crotch and spitting (even Keith Olbermann was critical)—is someone who accurately represents Trump voters. Of course The New York Times, CNN, and MSNBC would have us believe that this is the case.

If only the real Roseanne were more like the TV version. … As even the most elementary efforts to examine her personal and political past reveal, Roseanne Barr is certainly no conservative. Neither is she widely representative of a typical Trump voter. She does, however, represent a great problem—for democrats. If someone with the liberal leanings of Roseanne Barr can be persuaded to vote for Trump—and if this can be replicated and repeated—democrats will remain the minority party for the foreseeable future. Just after Trump’s victory over Hillary, it was revealed—by a variety of sources—that Trump was able to peel off more than three times the percentage of Obama voters (13% to 4%) as Hillary was able to lure Romney voters.

If Roseanne embodies anything, she stands for those whose worldview is decidedly liberal, but nevertheless, voted for Trump. …

Samantha Bee, on the other hand, is anything but a contradiction. Like so many liberal “entertainers,” her foul and vulgar persona exemplify her politics. In other words, she could be the poster child for the always angry, endlessly anti-Trump “nasty” woman so common on the left today. …

Hollywood is repulsive because its filled with repulsive people. We have people without values lecturing to us about values. Enough of the hypocrisy. —goldstategop

The idea of casting couch alumni expounding upon what is outrageous is outrageous.

The United States has become a place where entertainers and professional athletes are mistaken for people of importance.

QUOTES by ROBERT A. HEINLEIN

Robert A. Heinlein Quotes and Sayings!:

“[T]here seems to have been an actual decline in rational thinking. The United States had become a place where entertainers and professional athletes were mistaken for people of importance. They were idolized and treated as leaders; their opinions were sought on everything and they took themselves just as seriously-after all, if an athlete is paid a million or more a year, he knows he is important ... so his opinions of foreign affairs and domestic policies must be important, too, even though he proves himself to be ignorant and sub-literate every time he/she opens his/her mouth.”

— Robert A. Heinlein

Great quotes! Couldn’t agree more! What a shame that those so ignorant and immoral have such a large stage!

Barr and Bee both represent the idea that a-holes deliver whereas nice people take a bit more effort to become acquainted with. Instead of gravitating toward controversy, gravitate toward good craft. Sadly, the vast majority of Hollywood is in the a-hole column, but the sooner we recognize that fact and move on the better.

[DWW1990]

“Good craft” in Hollywood is a rare thing.

[Tucker39]

From the “I Wish I Had Said That” Dept.,
“The United States had become a place where entertainers and professional athletes were mistaken for people of importance.” When you see a TV ad with the caption: “Real peole. Not actors,” think about that and all it can mean.

[TBP]

The odd part is that Bee has been one of those calling for listening to the other side and promoting tolerance and harmony.

One way street, eh, Sam?

LEFTISTS LIE AS EASILY AS THEY BREATH.

BOYCOTT THE LIARS

Denounce The New York Times, CNN, and MSNBC etc... as the liars they are, and figuratively hurl their own excrement back at them.

I think they represent two idiots; but I am shallow and superficial in these things.

Tragically “tolerance" has become the supreme virtue with far too many in our culture. As Mr. Thomas himself has noted (here: http://www.trevorgrantthomas.com/2014/04/close-your-mind.html ) As the United Nations’ Declaration of Principles on Tolerance instructs, “Tolerance … involves the rejection of dogmatism and absolutism.” Of course, such a declaration reveals how the definition of tolerance has changed. Today “tolerance” no longer simply means “to recognize and respect others’ beliefs and practices without sharing them.” Today’s “tolerance” is little more than a self-refuting system of thought that attempts to impose liberal values onto any culture unable or unwilling to recognize the fallacy. The United Nations description of “tolerance” above illustrates well such fallacy, as “Tolerance … involves the rejection of dogmatism and absolutism” is itself a dogmatic and absolute statement. Today’s liberalism is full of such nonsense. On “tolerance,” G.K. Chesterton, who greatly influenced the life and writings of C.S. Lewis, noted that “Tolerance is a virtue of a man without convictions.” What better describes a modern liberal than a “man without convictions?” When a person lacks convictions it becomes very easy to align himself with whatever worldview provides the most benefits in this world—or at least allows you to have the most “fun.”

Amen!

You just describe how my wife and handle these repulsive people.

We don’t watch or listen to their vile stuff even if it is free.

We have some really great freepers, who can summarize and quote while destroying the lefties.

Thanks for the compliments.
