JM--a most excellent treatise,well written and to the point.

Please send it around to be published--with a copyright notice attached, of course.

Thank you for distilling the argument so clearly. Nicely done.

He stated that “I smell racism from beginning to end. . . . SlimFast must realize that black women have every right to voice their views.”

Well, it certainly took them long enough to lob THAT charge. I don't recall anyone on Whoopi's side of the aisle jumping to the defense of Condi Rice or Colin Powell, who were true targets of racism by Dims. I also do not recall Whoopi jumping to the defense of Rush or Dr. Laura.

Cleo--you have a truly original Freeper name. It gave me a chuckle--thanks.

Plus, your limerick was right on target.

Man, the talent we have here at FR.

First Posty ~! Hiyas ~!

I sent Slim-Fleece a Email (Muwhahahaha)

Ty for the link. Been looking haven't seen any of the OFF COLOR jokes. Gee they are censoring themselves and blaming the rep party. Classic.

anyway Hi, great page, much learning and enjoyment to follow. Been reading for a week or so and the Urge hit me.

Peace.

Thanks, exit82. Just doing my part. I'm still a neophyte here, so look forward to a lot of good bellylaughs with my new Freeper buddies!


Sorry for the hijack. How dumbocrapic of me.

Please remind Whoopi she has a right to speak out, which everyone of us here should/will defend to the death (and many of us HAVE!!). She DOES NOT, however, have a RIGHT to be heard!!!!!

Most of the Hollywood militia were behind the war against Dr. Laura, especially Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins. When it happens to one of the "anointed" they squeal like the pigs that they are.

[My2Cents]

It's a cliche, but one the Hollywood crowd has never grasped: With freedom comes responsibility. The Hollywood crowd is perhaps the most selfish, childish, and irresponsible demographic in the nation.

[My2Cents]

That was my thought too...acting as one wishes, without care to others, without any consequences...At the very least, it's moral anarchy. Let's be honest: Whoopi is a moral sinkhole.

To left wing kooks

And L.A. spooks

The F.R. nukes

Will close your books

So don't forget folks

Thats what you get folks

For hiring Whoopie

[BushisTheMan]

If you buy SlimFast, you are contributing money to the DNC. The owner is a Democrat who has provided over a $1 million to RATs.

You can thank him -- but don't buy the product.

[Capt_Hank]

I can remember the first time my late father saw Whoopi in the movie, "The Color Purple". He asked me if I knew how to get in touch with her. I asked why. His reply, "Son, if I could place her out in my corn field, she would have crows bringing back corn, they stole three years ago". I had a mouthful of Myers's Rum and Pepsi, which went all across the living room. I'm laughing now, thinking back on that evening.

[Intolerant in NJ]

“America's heart and soul is freedom of expression without fear of reprisal.”...yeah, but try saying the N word at a Hollywood cocktail party and see what happens to you.......

[BushisTheMan]

Well said Grampa Dave!

[Alberta's Child]

The irony of all this is that Whoopi's comments may have had very little to do with her dismissal. I suspect Slim-Fast was simply looking for an excuse to fire her . . . because her beam is a bit too wide for someone who's supposed to be selling a weight-loss product.
