On Wednesday’s broadcast of “Larry King Live” on CNN, the second-to-final show for host Larry King, singer Barbra Streisand explained why she left the country during November’s midterm. “I went to Europe because of this last election,” she said. “I couldn’t face — I didn’t want to be here for this bloodbath. There was no reason for the Republicans to win that many seats in the House, I didn’t think. And that was a — you know, a mistake on the Democrats’ part for not getting their message across, not communicating all that they’ve done that’s good.”

Irrational Hollywood on display.

[jazminerose]

I’d have blamed her unbroken record of incompetence starting in law school & intact today.

[SpinnerWebb]

Much like they blame his “color” now... /sarc

[668 - Neighbor of the Beast]

Voice like an angel, brain like a walnut. God knows what He’s doing there, but I don’t.

[BenLurkin]

PIAPS has a gender?

[JimRed]

Yeah, right- like we blame Zero’s race for it!

< /sarc >

[Allegra]

Oh, shut up, Babs.

You're obsolete.

[Col Frank Slade]

Watching King & Babs would require serious medications.

singer Barbra Streisand explained why she left the country

And you came back because we simply couldn't do without you....right?
Watta stupid bitch. (Apologies to stupid bitches everywhere,but it is what it is)
This overbearing gasbag,multiplied by millions,is why CA will never...EVER....EEEEEEVER....recover from anything it's going through right now.There's too many Streisands,Churchills,Pelosis,Sarandons,etc. for it to survive much longer. Take your freethinking conservative asses out of there pronto,wall the place off (a la Escape from New York) and let them have that asylum of a state.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

For somebody who needs "people," she sure doesn't like them very much.

[dennisw]

I love it when Babs issues her political pronouncements. She lost her talent years ago. She was so hungry and good ....back in the day

[T Minus Four]

There was no reason for the Republicans to win that many seats in the House

Yeah! Somebody should pass a law limiting how many seats in the House Pubbies can hold! < /s >

[The Sons of Liberty]

Who cares what Streisand thinks? What makes he an expert on anything?

She was supposed to leave the country years ago. What happened? She couldn't find the exit?

[SouthernBoyupNorth]

I wish she would have left and stayed gone.

[PLD]

Why didn't you stay out of the country Moron..You helped cause this disaster with your support of the Muslim and the rest of the Communist in Washington..Didn't you have anything better to spend your money on..it could have gone to hungry people that are out of jobs..but no you and the likes of you wanted the communist in office..it was your fault Barbara..

Streisand expressed frustration over Obama’s inability to exercise his “executive privilege” during the early part of his presidency. “At first, maybe a little, because I would have liked to have him use his executive privilege to — if that’s possible legally — you know, to get rid of something like ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,’” she said

How about he pulls a Hugo Chavez. Is that possible legally Babs?

[Oratam]

Babs, you meant her ‘sex’ right?

"I think people admire real strength, even though it’s misguided, you know? Reagan, first George Bush — no, the second George Bush I mean. He is — you know, he has an open mind. He has an open heart. And … Obama. And he’s cool. And he’s very smart"

You know, if she set that to music and sang it, a certain sector of the population would buy it.

[pepperdog]

Sometimes I wonder if God given talent, like her singing talent, was given to make up for leaving out the brains.
