I like the way basswipe sees something in the news, comes here and brings it up and explains why a liberal should be horrified by it, and then insults liberals to try to troll a response. Any return comments in his simple mind are supposed to imply that his deranged opinion is correct.
You want my opinion? I couldn’t care less.

Correct, I view it nothing more than a troll. He has done that numerous times. I guess he just lurks until he can't take it any more and then explodes.

What precipitated her tweet? Was she having an tweet argument with Jarrett or did it just come out of the blue? Kind of weird and it was ignorant but I can't see all the hubub about it.

Generally comedians get some leeway on these issues. Wanda Sykes (whom I love) was the first to say she was leaving the show but some of her material is worse - of course she is black so she gets a pass? What about someone like Andrew Dice Clay who was very popular maybe 30 years back - would a comedian like him get away with that nowadays? As a society are we too sensitive and take things way out of context?

Rosanne says here medicine made her do it, typical gutless dodge.

For the reasons I defend a lot things Spence. As a society, we should not go through life KneeJerking at every misstep or stupid move made by someone. Particularly by the left, you are likely to be sacrificed to some social jury mob.

The comment was stupid, it was not racist, and she should have been penalized. But not had her head on a spike in an orgy of virtue signaling.
