I haven’t seen Roseanne Barr for a long time, she looks pretty good compared to the last time I saw her. Good for her.

I think she had a gastric bypass. She was wrongheaded on the Trayvon Martin affair, but she is flying right now.

I don't watch or listen to any mainstream media sources. It was very difficult for me to understand the drumbeat I could hear coming from all of them (all the more because I didn't observe it directly, instead I gauged it through the reaction of the piece of society I could observe.

I knew immediately that the narrative being pushed was complete rubbish, that of the "gentle giant" shot out of hand by cruel police with nothing better to do.

I just had trouble understanding how people bought unquestioningly into that.

I understand now that that was the narrative that the Left wanted. They wanted it.

I know nothing about Roseanne Barr except for some memories from the Eighties sometime...I realize I just can't keep track of it all. (My wife knows I secretly enjoy the curmudgeon role to a degree-I walked by the television one night and there was a woman with a foreign look to her, darkish skin tones, dark hair. I paused as I walked by, and asked my wife who she was. My wife rolled her eyes, and said "It's Kim Kardashian. You know who she is, don't you?"

I honestly didn't...:)
