Roseanne Barr once again attempted to tell her side of the story about her controversial Valerie Jarret tweet, maintaining that she thought Jarrett “was white” and claimed her namesake show was canceled because she “voted for Donald Trump.”

Barr’s explanation came in the form of a video on her YouTube page, introducing viewers to her “own studio” where she said she can talk to the public “without the filter of the biased media.”

She recalled getting a phone call from ABC, in which she said she was asked “to explain my ‘egregious and unforgivable tweet,’” referring to her racially charged May post in which she said Jarrett, who is African-American and born in Iran, was like the “muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby.”

[Democrats hate too much]

I thought Iranian?

[truthkeeper]

She actually does look like some sort of space alien. A very odd-looking woman.

[livius]

I didn’t know Jarrett was “black,” either. I thought she was Iranian, and while it turns out that she was brought up in Iran, apparently her father was an American of European descent and her mother was part African American. You’d never know it by looking at her, however, so even while I don’t like Roseanne, I don’t think she meant to make a “racist” comment.

She was referring, I think, to Jarrett’s weird Planet of the Apes hairstyle.

[GnuThere]

Yes, she’s Lizard, not black. I don’t see why Roseanne should have suffered at all for this, while ValJar is probably in Obama’s bunker right now, trying to overthrow the country. I cannot even look at her without needing an exorcism. Evil witch.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

She looks like the reptile James Carville.

Roseanne strikes me as someone who could change her stance at any moment. I’m not going to champion a loose cannon.

(I wonder sometimes which is more important here: Truth or Agendas...)

[jjotto]

She has the misfortune of looking like her father. What blacks call 'high yellow'.

[healy61]

Not a fan, having never watched the Barr show, but I didn’t know she was black either. I couldn’t care any less about her in any sphere of her life.

[Jane Long]

You go, Roseanne!!

Give it right back to the insufferable left.

I hope she gets a TON of views.

[digger48]

I always thought she looks like a burn victim

[Bonemaker]

Lizard.

[onedoug]

Cover the mirrors.

[rlmorel]

I didn’t know she was black either.

But then, I didn’t know The Rock was black, either. I guess in the end, it doesn’t make any difference to people out for a scalp anyway.

[El Cid]

I thought she was a commie crypto Muslim, and puppet master of the last occupant of the White House.
Skin color is irrelevant.
I'd like to say Nationality isn't important, but it is. You want an American in a job that effects National security. She did not act very American.

[dfwgator]

I thought The Rock was Samoan.

[Yaelle]

I also didn’t know the rock was black! I knew he was part Hawaiian! I can’t keep up! If you need to be known for one of your races, PLEASE WEAR A SIGN LETTING US KNOW WHICH RACE YOU WILL BE IDENTIFYING AS!

[Jamestown1630]

Maybe we should just give up the entire notion of ‘race’.

It’s only ever been used to divide and conquer.

[chris37]

I don’t care if she’s black or not.

Roseanne, you are right, everyone else is wrong.

Don’t waste your time apologizing, they only want to eat you.

[BenLurkin]

That thing does NOT look human.

[Yaelle]

Completely agree. I do want a utopian no race world. I wish.
