August 6, 2005 marks the 60th anniversary of the US bombing of Hiroshima. The Atomic Bomb, which decimated the Japanese city and its people, was never used in combat again.

Uhhh...Babs is correct. The bomb dropped on Hiroshima never was used again.

I have been corrupted by Jesuit training.

Last year Baghdad Babs failed both English grammar and English Lit with her pitiful attempt at quoting Shakespeare. This year she fails History.

[Fudd Fan]

This is from her website? It sounds like it was written by a fourth grader. Oh wait, DOH! She barely finished highschool, right?

[Fudd Fan]

She's as dumb as a brick and not nearly as useful.

Nor nearly as good-looking.

[Frank_2001]

She is a total idiot indeed, absent her singing "talent" which peaked about 40 years ago IMO, she'd probably be a waitress taking orders in a Brooklyn deli, and probably getting half of 'em wrong anyhow...life ain't fair;)

[Red6]

We get thousands of threats a day against our nation.

Bush alone probably gets several hundred threats to his life every day. Some probably are even credible.

The difference between Bush and Clinton is that Bush did something after 9-11 while your hero Clinton did as good as nothing after WTC I (1993), Kohbar towers, USS Cole, Embassies...... It was Clinton who failed Rwanda, nearly botched up the Balkans and then after the fact adopted the exact plan he attacked Bush Sr. on during the first elections. It was Clinton who botched up Somalia (You do realize that under Bush Sr. things went well there), and now you Ms. Streisand want to somehow twist reality to make it sound like Bush failed us?

The difference between Bush and Clinton is that Clinton “downplayed” any threat while Bush is trying to neutralize it. Clinton wasn’t oblivious to what was going on, he just chose to put his personal interest ahead of that of the nation.

LOL! Well I was taught by nuns and I like the way you think!

[doug from upland]

OKAY, LET'S MOCK HER WITH ONE OF HER OWN SONGS

[solitas]

decimated

I _think_ the bomb too a LITTLE more than 10%...

[Old Seadog]

You know, when she was younger she wasn't very pretty. but now......

[DugMac]

Gee I didn't know that being a washed up hag faced has been lounge lizard made you an expert on geopolitics!

[patriciaruth]

They banned presidio9 who posted this crap, but they haven't pulled the crap.

Maybe they liked your song too much!

[rdcorso]

Barbara is always sticking her enormous nose in places that it doesn't belong.She should shove it back up Bill and Hills ass and keep it out of the country's business.I heard Bill really enjoys it.

[Robert Drobot]

Same difference?

No. The one on the right gets my vote.

[backhoe]

Than anyone this stunningly, stullifyingly stupid could rise ( however fleetingly ) to the heights she did just astounds me to no end. Then again, the country re-elected the Clintons...

[Straight Vermonter]

Osama declared war on America on Aug. 23 1996. You can read his statement here.

Who was President in 1996? Anyone remember?

[GodBlessRonaldReagan]

I sell records and 8-tracks on eBay. You can't give away Bab's stuff, even records still sealed in shrink wrap. One record collector's magazine has even proposed their readers destroy every Streisand LP that comes their way to pump up demand and value. Pretty funny!

[Allegra]

ROFL on your Post #25!

[Mad Mammoth]

Shut your f'in piehole, you washed up piece of sh*t!

In a perfect world, we would have time travel technology, which would be the playtoy of the hoi polloi, and somehow, someway, Babs would stumble her way right INTO Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, just about 60 seconds before Little Boy did his glorious work on the Japanese Empire.

Kinda gives ya a nice warm feeling, eh?
