Big, fat, lesbian, loud Rosie
"Big fat, lesbian, loud Rosie" (O'Donnell), as she described herself, used a contributor to her blog by the name of Shelly to quote herself from a recent exchange with Elisabeth Hasselbeck, one of her co-hosts on The View:
O’DONNELL: …… I just want to say something. 655,000 Iraqi civilians are dead. Who are the terrorists?
HASSELBECK: Who are the terrorists?
O’DONNELL: 655,000 Iraqis — I’m saying you have to look, we invaded –
HASSELBECK: Wait, who are you calling terrorists now? Americans?
O’DONNELL: I’m saying if you were in Iraq, and the other country, the United States, the richest in the world, invaded your country and killed 655,000 of your citizens, what would you call us?
HASSELBECK: Are we killing their citizens or are their people also killing their citizens?
O’DONNELL: We’re invading a sovereign nation, occupying a country against the U.N.
Shelly went on to complain that that famous liberal hater Chris Matthews, who as everyone knows has a right-wing show called Hardball on the fascist MSNBC cable channel, had a panel of journalists (all known homophobes and right-wing conspirators) that included Howard Feinman, Jill Zuckman, and Jonathan Capehart that had the audacity to unanimously agree "with Matthews that she (Rosie) did call our troops terrorists. That conforms with the majority of journalists who have reported on this comment."
Forgetting ten years of American soldiers protecting the Kurds in Northern Iraq and brave American pilots patrolling the no-fly zone after Iraq was expelled from Kuwait in 1991; forgetting seventeen, that's right 17, United Nations resolutions condemning Iraqi behavior in the years after Desert Storm, Shelly blamed everyone in the elite media like the Hardball panel "who aided and abetted the rush to war in Iraq and fostered the terrorist policy that has resulted in this catastrophe."
Rosie's comment to Shelly's post: "THANK GOD 4 SHELLY"
WOW! That is quite an amazing alternate reality that Shelly and Rosie live in.
Note: I believe the site that Ms. O'Donnell is using to back up her claim of 655,000 deaths in Iraq is here. There are at least four other groups with estimates no higher than approximately 23% of Ms. O'Donnell's claim. All five estimates can be found at a table provided by NPR here.

McCain On Immigration And Border Control
Although he was accused of being too busy running for President to actively negotiate the latest 'comprehensive' (read amnesty) immigration package, Senator John McCain (R-AZ) is 'proud' to have been a part of the newest proposal for amnesty for 12 million ILLEGAL aliens. From TheHill.com:
One senator who lent his presence yesterday was John McCain (R-AZ), who has distanced himself from the negotiating table as he prepares to stress a borders-first approach for his presidential run. McCain chose his words carefully, telling reporters he is “proud to have been a small part” of the talks.
Of course, Senator Teddy "Chappaquiddick' Kennedy (D-MA) is ecstatic because 90% of the ILLEGAL aliens will eventually register as Democrats when they become citizens. Why? Because the Democratic party will always attract 90% of all the low-lifes.
McCain may just as well join the ILLEGAL aliens and register as a Democrat because he is finished in the Republican party.
The Bush presidency is imploding on the issue of immigration as well.
While his Daddy's Waterloo was "Read my lips, NO NEW TAXES," Bush 43's immigration policy or lack thereof will ultimately lead to the Republican party's demise and the country's fiscal ruination.
Unfortunately, I believe history will show that although the war in Iraq defined the Bush '43' presidency in the short term, Bush's unwillingness to control the borders in any meaningful way during his presidency and his unconscionable support of a policy legitimizing millions of illegal aliens who will bring anarchy to our streets and bankrupt our society after his term in office will be his true legacy.

Oprah Supports Obama For President
Talk show host Oprah Winfrey has decided that Barack Hussein Obama (D-IL) is the best person to replace George Bush as President of the United States.
Obama does actually qualify to be President of the United States. He is at least 35 years old and is an American citizen born in the United States. Obama's attributes include his ability to read, write, and speak in complete sentences. His claim to fame is that he has been elected to the U.S. Senate, once. (It should be noted that he has not completed his first term yet and usually only bothers to show up for work three days a week.)
He has not, however, done anything to make him more qualified than you, I, or your next door neighbor. He may even be less qualified than your next door neighbor.
If someone were comparing the resumes of all the Presidential candidates, Democratic and Republican, no one would chose him over any of the other candidates, including Dennis Kucinich (D-OH).
This decision by Oprah to support Obama must be entirely racial. If it is not, perhaps Oprah is not as smart as she would have us believe.
Frankly, I believe it is both.
