[...] I remember watching Larry King a while back. He was talking to Rosanne Barr about the Internet. It was painful to watch. King said he wouldn’t like it, there’s “80 billion things on there.” And surprisingly, Barr hit the nail on the head. You can watch the video here. [...]

That’s because dead people don’t use computers.

Knew it! This confirms my belief that King has been dead for the past 5 years. When FOX News began battering their ratings 10 years ago CNN was desperate. Knowing that their viewers wouldn’t know the difference – they prop the old dog up – pull the string and the same stupid questions come out of his mouth every night. MARVELOUS!

I dunno, but her quote sums up a lot of how liberals think. Reactionary and without actually thinking about the issue at all.

Yes, something about how Bush is going to declare war on China ( …and other paranoid delusions). Should be on HuffPo alongside Ben Affleck’s op-ed on global warming and Mel Gibson’s biting analysis of the warmongering, money-grubbing, hook-nosed neo-con agenda.

Ja, but I did not wish him dead. I was poking fun at his pretentious program title, and pointing out that when he passes, he will not be missed. May he live for decades, with many more by-passes….

I don’t think there is anyone in the inner workings of the Republican Party that knows how to the internet either.
I imagine them sitting around a room brainstorming why they lost the congress or deciding who should be the Senate Minority Whip or who should head up th RNC. They keep asking each other,”I wonder what the voters are thinking”, “If there was only a way to know what are base thinks about this”, “Maybe we could mail a poll out to Republicans to see how they about this”.
King isn’t the only one that’s clueless.

Janos,

I know what you mean, but we really shouldn’t wish anyone dead. Let’s wish him a nice retirement–one that starts, oh, five minutes ago and lasts for the rest of his life.

Can’t be much real action going on for her being married to an antique.

Couple more years, and she can ebay him. He’s a collectible now. Not sure about MIB, but definitely a collectible.

Roseanne and Larry King. One is a silly, used-up has-been that thinks they’re funny. The other is Roseanne.

Well, King is like 500 years old isnt he? And his wife like 20? So its natural she would be all about the internet.

I think we all can agree his “little buttons and things” comment was worse than Senator Ted Stevens describing the internet as a “series of tubes.”

Forget that… I want to see the two mashed together somehow! A series of tubes that you activate by pressing little buttons. Are the buttons in the tubes, or are the tubes in the buttons?

No, OHNOES, you should have listened to him on his radio show: he was vile and ruthless in attacking conservatives and Republicans–he didn’t bother with the easy-going personna he affected on his TV show and that brainless celebrity column he ‘authored’. I’ve experienced him for over twenty years, and he is a bad person

OK let me see Roseann wants Larry to put on his glasses while she clicks her thing. OK

His call-in radio show was maybe the worst P.O.S. ever put out over the airwaves. Even liberals stopped calling him, with the result that the entire show consisted of conservatives and populists calling up and being cut off and insulted by a weary raspy elderly putz from Brooklyn

I cannot imagine how desperate you would have to be for something to read to visits Roseanne Barr’s blog.

Headline: Larry King Dead

When he does Achieve Room Temperature, he will not be missed.
