Must be a job for her abortion president.

Actress Ellen Barkin created a stir on Twitter today when she sent out a re-tweet of a message someone sent saying they hoped Hurricane Isaac would hit the Republican convention and “was every pro-life, anti-education, anti-woman, xenophobic, gay-bashing, racist SOB right into the ocean.”
The reaction from conservatives was quick to her class-less Tweet.
“I wonder if @EllenBarkin will feel badly at all when #Isaac doesn’t wash the GOPers out to sea but in fact wipes out New Orleans,” one person responded.
Bryan Kemper, Director of Youth Outreach for Priests for Life, said: “This is why we call pro-abortion people anti-life.”
“It is no surprise to me that the pro-abortion side would have things like this to say about other human persons, they already stand for the slaughter of innocent people inside the womb why not expand that slaughter to outside the womb?” Kemper added. “We have a President who cannot even acknowledge that a baby outside the womb is a human child, why should we expect any different from his supporters in Hollywood. Can you imagine the media uproar if Rush Limbaugh has tweeted this? Can you imagine how crazy Rachel Maddow would be going if any conservative or pro-lifer publicly called for a hurricane to kill people?”
“This is simply unacceptable for anyone to call for the mass death of people they don’t agree with. I have to ask Ellen Barkin a question, if hurricane Isaac does actually claim lives, will you be celebrating once you find out what political party they belong too?” Kemper said.
Another added, “I’m pretty liberal but isn’t it kinda racist to wish people with a different belief death?”
After coming under criticism, Barkin attacked the conservative web site Twitchy, which called her out on the tweet.
“For better or worse, that was not my original tweet.A retweet.But Twitchy liked it better their way,” she said. Barkin then called the founder of the web site, pro-life columnist Michelle Malkin, a lair, saying, “Great tells of a liar blinking,avoiding eye contact,repeating question asked them…and…TWITCHING.Aptly named. Michelle Malkin is a genius.”
But Twitchy responded: “Twitchy didn’t misrepresent the disgusting retweet as a tweet written by Barkin. In fact, Twitchy didn’t report on Barkin’s tweet at all … until now. Evidently facts come as easily to the unhinged actress as tolerance and civility.”
“As many Twitter bios indicate, a retweet is not necessarily an endorsement. But Barkin didn’t give any indication that she disagreed with the revolting sentiment when she retweeted it to her followers. Instead, she falsely accused one conservative Twitter user of wishing ill on New Orleans,” it added.

Does Ellen Barkin know that there are people who actually live in Tampa? Or is her hate so great, that she’d rather the GOP Convention be wiped out, along with some people from Tampa itself - both Democrats and Republicans??
Which is it Ellen, are you stupid?!, or just rabidly hateful?! -—I’m betting on both.
I was thinking the very same thing. She was SO HOT in "The Big Easy" and "Bad Company."
But over the years, I guess she got REALLY ugly. The old saying, "beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes to the bone" is in action here! She may have once looked good, but she's filled with something really nasty, as her tweet, or "retweet" has proven.

Check out what happened to Katheen Turner. You talk about letting yourself go. Far cry from “Body Heat”!!!!!!!!!!
Evidently her own mother was PRO-life, or else she wouldn’t be here to spew out her venom. Tsk.
...the outside reflects the inside...
She can go straight to Hell.
The Left is pro-death, just as we always suspected.
Did she prey to dog like Obama?
My my, how intolerant and bigoted.
Did she happen to call them "tea baggers" like Obama once did?
If the hurricane hits Tampa and washes the unwashed into the ocean, won't it be clearing out the Code Stink Pinkos? Occupantload Wallstreeters? Anarchists United For Communism?
Yes, I get so angry that we can’t even watch sports without the networks airing the lewd previews for their trashy shows.
I would like to know the sponsors for Barkin’s perverted show so I can avoid buying their products.
Senile dementia is an ugly thing, Ms Barkin’ mad.
Get help before your aging, shriveled brain gets you in even more trouble.
Enjoy being a member of the party and culture of death.
You were one of my favorite actors, but you have just demonstrated that you were never worthy of any admiration.
We have a winner!!
Her nose has always had Owen Wilson syndrome. It’s getting worse as she ages well past her starlet stage. Boo hoo!
I think that's what made her perfect for her role in Fear and Loathing...
That's what she gets for messing with Daniel Stern's record collection in "Diner."
Okay, I know the one wearing the red hat is not her, but which one of the other two photos is her? Is it the one with the bad teeth?
