If you can call pointing out lies "savagely going after' anyone.
... but not as sad as someone trying to punish me for exercising my right as an American to speak my mind."
While the rest of us are not to be allowed the same freedom? Goldberg and her ilk don't seem to realize that Americans don't have to put up with her kind of nastiness and also have the right to speak out.
Which we did.
Freedom of speech only for Party members comrade. Applies to Doctor Cosby as well. He was told what he could say and how to act at the NAACP Convention dinner.
Let me see if I understand her logic: Whoopie can say whatever she wants and consider it her freedom of expression, but when thousands of other people use their own freedom to express their feelings, it's unfair???
Whoopie is trying the same technique that Michael Berg used.
Berg blamed GWB because his civilian son was in Iraq.
Whoopie is blaming the Republicans because Slim-fast fired her. Ironically, the head of Slim-fast has reportedly given over $1 Million to the Democrat Party.
Whoopie, Michael, liberals, you need to learn that your actions and speech have consequences.
Libs have the victim game down to an art form. From Hillary's accusations against some nebulous vast right wing conspiracy to Whoopie's accusations that the Republicans got her fired, the LeftistLibs sure like to blame others for the situation they make for themselves.
Okay, I think I've got it figured out now. It's okay, a noble exercise in Constitutional Courage even, for Whoopi to criticize the President in the most vulgar manner possible with the aim of trying to make him lose his job this November, but it's Naziesque censorship if anyone criticizes Whoopi and caues her to lose her job.
That's not what we smelled.
""America's heart and soul is freedom of expression without fear of reprisal," she said in a statement."
well, whoopi, I see you are just as intelligent as you are beautiful.
What is she talking about? We did not try to punish her. Slim-Fast did it. My understanding is that Slim-Fast is a Dem operation.
But I'll bet she'd get her panties in bunch if someone used the "N" word to describe her. She'd be screaming for reprisal, too!
Then she wraps herself idignantly in her right to freedom of expression when the people who were offended by her comments decided not to purchase the product she sponsors.
Since when does the right to express yourself exempt you from the consequences of what you say? And so when people get upset and express it, that is sad??? Well, ain't consequences a bitch.
Then this:
" Diversity promoter Asa Khalif, who has made headlines for accusing celebrities of insensitivity, cried foul in the Goldberg firing. "I smell racism from beginning to end," said Khalif, head of Racial Unity USA in Pennsylvania. "SlimFast must realize that black women have every right to voice their views.""
I'll tell you what sad is. Sad is trying to turn this into a race issue. So Asa, what do you say to a black woman who was offended by Whoopi's comments? Is she a racist too? Or maybe she's an Auntee Tom? Or better yet, maybe she should just learn her place and shut up and take it with a smile like the white people are supposed to do.
Funny I thought he said they all spoke for the heart and soul of America.
And I doubt that only republicans were unimpressed with her vulgar 'show'. I know lots of democrats and most of them also have morals.
Scream Whoopie......make Kerry release the tape.
Nobody "bashed" Cleland, Wilson, or Clarke. The whole truth was revealed about each of them. But Whoopi is probably too ignorant to know the difference between explaining a Democrat's anti-military voting record or countering book-hawking malcontents' self-serving criticism of Bush's foreign policy and likening the President of the United States of America to her vagina.
America's heart and soul is freedom of expression without fear of reprisal," she said in a statement.
Talk about 'disingenuous'! Whoopi knew good and well that she was going to be watched carefully when the Dems wanted to review her material, which she says she answered with a photocopy of her posterior.
If she didn't 'fear reprisal,' she should have, as someone who has been slammed for going too far before. Remember when Whoopi was dating married Ted Danson in 1993 (yeah, I know, set it aside for the moment), and he appeared in blackface and told scatalogical and racist jokes at a 'roast' for her at N.Y.'s Friars Club? She wrote all those jokes (including one suggesting that 'if Whoopi had septuplets, how could differentiate the babies from diarrhea?'). That scandal haunts Danson to this day, as a web search of "Ted Danson" reveals.
To paraphrase Santayana, she forgot the past, and she repeated it. Too bad. Back to showbiz purgatory, you little witch.
Cry me a river.
The Dems boycott everything from radio stations to products to entire states.
Ugly is as ugly does!
But only for you left-wing whackos. You've got a lot of nerve calling anybody else a hypocrite, Whoopi.
"I find all this feigned indignation about 'Bush bashing' quite disingenuous,"
You just don't get that there are real Americans who are truly offended by your words and behavior, do you? Bless your heart, you're too d*mned ignorant to hate.
"Mary Beth Cahill said tartly that he could have the video after Bush releases his military records"
Apparently this dingbat doesn't realize that has already been done.
"SlimFast must realize that black women have every right to voice their views."
Sure they do. And the free market allows us to repond to it any way we choose and allows the conmpany to respond to the demands of the market. I don't think anybody in their right mind is going to buy that Whoopi is a poor, persecuted black woman. How many millions has she made? Problem is, it seems she fails to realize that she made it off of the good will of Americans. Those who gave it, can surely take it away.
If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)
Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.
Oh good grief! These people need to grow up, it's not about race, it's about responsibility!
