Herman Cain is right. If it hadn't been this tweet, it would have been something else.

And ABC is sending a message: You criticize those on the Left (and support Trump), then we will destroy you.

I didn’t take it as racist. I had to look up Jarrett’s ethnicity. She is a multi-ethnic American born in Iran. She’s probably more white than black.

Barr should have been sensitive to the fact that comparing blacks to apes / monkeys has been a common racial insult historically. She should have used lizards rather than apes for her comparison. Jarrett clearly has some lizard in her DNA.

Trump Derangement Syndrome is destroying the liberal media.

Roseanne did the civilized adult thing by apologizing for her statement, while ABC did the uncivilized, childish thing by refusing to accept her apology and also going into a suicidal rage that will cost the network millions of dollars and alienate Rosanne’s twenty-two million viewers.

Compared to ABC executives, apes are geniuses. Did anyone ever see an ape destroying a banana tree so that there would be less food available to eat?

I didn’t realize she was referencing Jarretts hairdo. Did she clarify that?

Her comments were truly despicable. What does she have against The Planet of the Apes?

Jews and Muslims might have been related at one point in time but that is long over with.

The difference is like heaven and hell. Islam took a dark fork in the road and was lost to this day with not much chance of ever being redeemed. It can happen in peoples lives which is how Islam got started. One person chose the wrong fork in the road of his life.

Hebrews and Arabs are both said to descend from Abraham. The Hebrews from Sarah and Arabs from Sarah’s handmaiden, Hagar.

Of course ABC was looking for a reason they could exploit and use as a warning to drop Rosanne's show. We were just talking the other day regarding how long they will permit the show to go on even though it presents two side.

I saw somebody post on FR that FOX (not FOX News) is thinking of picking up the show, but I doubt it. MSM is on the roll, prohibiting old reruns of her previous shows. They want to make sure that nobody dares to speak out in favor of Trump. Reminds me of North Korea.

Heard a rumor that FOX tv should pickup “Roseanne” and “Last Man Standing” and run them back to back.
