Rosie on Wright: “I listened to him and, frankly, it made sense to me”

Via the ‘Busters, a lazy Monday trip down memory lane. Percentage of Americans who disagree or strongly disagree with Wright, per Gallup’s latest: 86. Percentage who strongly agree: just one, embodied by hard-left idiots like this willing to excuse any calumny or journey into paranoia in the interest of righting historical wrongs. She’s still deploying the “context” defense that Obama (finally) abandoned last week; she’s still excusing the “America created AIDS” libel on grounds that the government did, after all, infect black men with syphilis — which it technically didn’t, but which, unlike her other theories, is at least near to being true. I can’t think of a more transparent case of someone embracing conspiracies to affect intelligence, a fact betrayed here by her mention of blacks having once been considered three-fourths of a person. Close enough, Ro, close enough.

Exit question: You miss her, though, don’t you? Admit it. It’s okay; we’re among friends.

Rosie, its the 21st Century these grievance mongers and victim creators need to stop it already….

The Church needs to preach about Forgiveness, Redemption and Love, not preaching hate and keeping people bound to past grievances and made to feel like victims.

Chakra Hammer on May 5, 2008 at 4:17 PM

Well of course it does!

Tony737 on May 5, 2008 at 4:29 PM

yeah, i’m shocked.

dogsoldier on May 5, 2008 at 4:41 PM

I totally understand that she totally understands.

Akzed on May 5, 2008 at 4:48 PM

I miss Rosie so much that I’m constructing a big balloon depicting her face.

Travis1 on May 5, 2008 at 4:54 PM

The lithium hasn’t kicked in yet, eh, Rosie?

drjohn on May 5, 2008 at 4:57 PM

Rosie the Hut

SilverStar830 on May 5, 2008 at 4:57 PM

e-gad AllahP, PLEEZE with the Rosie already, now I have to go wash my eyes out with soap.

kirkill on May 5, 2008 at 4:58 PM

Theorum: Rev. Wright is an insane hate monger.

Observational Data: He makes sense to Rosie.

It’s amazing how self-loathing white liberals are. I believe I’ve heard it referred to as “white guilt”. Maybe if many of them weren’t a bunch of scumbags out to destroy America and recreate it as the socialist dump of the world, they wouldn’t have the guilty consciences that lead to such (possibly well-deserved) self-hatred. But, hey; I’m just a black guy. What do I know, right?

Ah, it’s like the “Old Days” when Rosie would just open her mouth and out came a Hot Air post from AP.

Yes, I’ll admit it, I miss the good ol’ days.

Thanks Allah for the nostalgic post….

JohnnyD on May 5, 2008 at 5:23 PM

She gives all white people a bad name.

This was precisely O’Reilly’s position last Thursday(Wednesday?). I almost launched my glass of Coke through the TV.

Can I just say, that white frock/shirt/blouse thing looks an awful lot like a white bed sheet.

/conspiracy theory

fourstringfuror on May 5, 2008 at 6:17 PM

The people that keep defending Wright and his AIDS conspiracy have no freaking clue as to what the Tuskegee experiment was or under which administration it took place. Idiots. Black men were NOT infected with syphilous…they ALREADY had it. The crime was in failing to treat it. Idiots.

ihasurnominashun on May 5, 2008 at 6:47 PM

Does this really surprise anyone?

Crazy attracts crazy, it’s a story as old as time.

SuperCool on May 5, 2008 at 6:53 PM

Rosie in KKK drag. How amusing.

Winebabe on May 5, 2008 at 7:38 PM

If Rosey opinion was the ONLY reason, that would be enough. But, it’s not….

Yes Allah, you are among friends. Admit your problem and then we can start to work on it together, as a Hotair Family.

srhoades on May 5, 2008 at 9:53 PM

I see that Barbra Walters admitted on the View that she had an intense relationship, a.k.a., an affair, with the country’s first black senator, a married man, 30 years ago. That should cement her liberal credentials like nothing else.

How could anyone miss her? She is her own zip code. She has signs on her back telling truckers what the clearance is on her underpass.

Hog Wild on May 5, 2008 at 10:50 PM

Why does this not surprise me?

Amy Proctor on May 6, 2008 at 1:08 AM

Reality never melted Stupid.

profitsbeard on May 6, 2008 at 1:23 AM

I was going to post something witty, but I can’t top that one ^^^

Mallard T. Drake on May 6, 2008 at 4:01 AM

Rosie is as stupid as some of the trolls around her.

slp on May 6, 2008 at 6:44 AM

Rosie is as stupid as some of the trolls around here.

slp on May 6, 2008 at 6:46 AM

And we care what a fat unattractive unfunny female lesbian celebrity comedian idiot says why?

sabbott on May 6, 2008 at 7:39 AM

A few questions:

1. What other country in the world could make a big fat lebian a multimillionaire?

2. Why does she hate her country so much?

3. Is there anything this country has ever done right in her mind?

4. Women, too, until fairly recently were not treated as equal citizens. Why aren’t we running around blaming men, particularly white ones, for any troubles we may encounter in life.

p.s. My kids are going to be really mad when they find out what happened to their tent.

sheesh on May 6, 2008 at 8:03 AM

lebian?

Now that’s a word we need to come up with a definition for! I like the way it flows from the lips.

sheesh on May 6, 2008 at 8:05 AM

I read how one time, the government gave some black men a cold. They had the sniffles for almost a week!

Kevin M on May 6, 2008 at 8:33 AM

One time, the government did a test on black men where it withheld their tax refunds for 4 days!

Another time, in the 50s, black men were measured by the government and told that they were one inch shorter than they actually were!

How can we continue to support such an evil government?

Kevin M on May 6, 2008 at 8:37 AM

It was a broken measuring stick, and the government knew it! EVIL!

Kevin M on May 6, 2008 at 8:40 AM

Oh, yeah, I miss Rosie. I also miss my ruptured appendix.

ZK on May 6, 2008 at 9:14 AM

Arrggggggh, you made it a top pick, now we’ve got to look at Rosis for a week.

Maxx on May 6, 2008 at 9:38 AM

Frankly, I think that the fellow frantically waving in the background made more sense than Rosie-the-less-than-riveting blowhard.

onlineanalyst on May 6, 2008 at 10:26 AM

Rosie suffers from *white male guilt* .. ooffaahh…

redrock on May 6, 2008 at 11:01 AM

unattractive unfunny female lesbian celebrity comedian idiot

But you repeat yourself.

kirkill on May 6, 2008 at 11:44 AM

What a foul, stupid human being. Our celebrity worshipping country deserves having to listen like people like her.

peacenprosperity on May 6, 2008 at 11:45 AM

3. Is there anything this country has ever done right in her mind?

Nothing. Because she hates herself so, the blame must be put on everyone and everything else.

peacenprosperity on May 6, 2008 at 11:46 AM

“I listened to him and, frankly, it made sense to me” - Rosie

Yeah, I totally understood what he was saying also. But understand what he said and agreeing with what he said are two very different things.

Lawrence on May 6, 2008 at 11:50 AM

Pigs really do fly!!!

Who knew?

Roger Waters?

Kini on May 6, 2008 at 12:54 PM

Will someone remind me exactly why anyone cares what Rosie says or does?
Maybe if we just ignore her she will go away. It’s at least worth a try.

drjeep on May 6, 2008 at 1:02 PM

Allah,

Admit it! You belong to the Rosie Addicts in Recovery Anonymous! LOL

“Hi, I’m Allah and I’m a Rosie Addict!”

Say it, 3..2..1..come on say it in 5..4..3..2..1

kiakjones on May 6, 2008 at 1:30 PM

I, for one, do not miss Ro. She’s too annoying and I can get by just fine without having to listen to her mindless blather. I simply can’t make myself play the video.
