FEW DOZEN TURN OUT TO HEAR ROSIE O'DONNELL ELECTION PREACH
**Exclusive**
Rosie O'Donnell addressed a nearly vacant CLUB OVATION Saturday night in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida during a get-out-the-vote rally for Dem presidential hopeful John Kerry.
"You know, there's only like, you know, maybe 38 of us here and maybe we can just like tap a keg and put on some disco, and totally party," O'Donnell deadpanned.
The debacle came one night after only a couple hundred came out to see Cher rally for Kerry at Miami Beach's CROBAR disco.
"There were supposed to be thousands of people here tonight. I'm not sure why that didn't happen, obviously the people putting on this thing were just not very good at it," an embarrassed Cher explained to the crowd.
A top Florida Democratic party official dismissed the weak back-to-back club turnouts as any indication of voter enthusiasm for the Kerry candidacy.

Rosie endorsed Kerry's assertion in debate that America needs to pass a "global test" before acting in the world.
"The best part to me in the entire debate was when John Kerry said we have to pass a global test before we enter into a war. And you see George Bush got all nervous because frankly the word 'test' terrifies him," O'Donnell said to scattered chuckles.
"He never passed one at Harvard or Yale, but whatever. But there is a global test. It's the global test of decency, of humanity, of integrity. That's what our country stands for as we lead the free world. Let's take back our country. Let's elect John Kerry."
Rosie said the Bush Administration's actions go "against the foundation of what our country was built on," giving example of Administration telling the "United Nations we would ignore their doctrine and their resolutions."

Rosie continued: "Every single thing this White House has done goes against the foundation of what our country was built on. For us to tell the United Nations we would ignore their doctrine and their resolutions, for us to say that we will not adhere to the Geneva Convention during this war. We are America, we are better than that. We were built on the foundation of freedom and truth and equality for all people. And the rich, corporate, horrible, horrible people who have been destructing and ruining everything this country was made on has been really unbelievably damaging to all of us spiritually, emotionally, monetarily."
Rosie advised the audience to ignore any and all media in last days of the election race and to keep telling themselves "Kerry by a landslide!"
"Just remember this, don't believe the media in these last nine days. Tell yourself every day when you wake up and every morning when you have a worry or a doubt or whether you believe FOXNEWS: Kerry by a landslide. Because America knows the difference between genuine and junk."

Finally, Rosie spent an inordinate amount of time at the end of her speech cracking jokes about THE VIEW co-host Star Jones, suggesting that the daytime diva's weight loss was not the product of "diet and exercise," but of plastic surgery:
"Star Jones is my body double. She's getting smaller every day. I'm telling you ladies, it's diet and exercise. [Rosie pauses giving disbelieving look, then makes popping noises as she motions around her body implying plastic surgery] No problem, [singing] 'I believe in dissolution.' Okay, that's fine. She's alright. She's married to some guy, it's fine. Ah huh. Yeah. The thing is -- it's fine, it's alright, leave it. What do I care? I don't even watch TV in the day... He is a cute boy. And I'm gonna leave it there because I see that camera rolling. And all the Kerry thing will go away and it'll be 'Rosie O'Donnell Attacks Star Jones!' And in the Enquirer it'll be 'Crazy Lesbian Goes Insane At A Kerry Rally.'"
Developing...
Guess these people aren't as important as they think they are!! Doesn't Hollywood know, they are nothing put pure entertainment? Its like the comic strip in the local newspaper, you read them, enjoy them but hey...sooner or later they can end up as paper in the outhouse, good for only one purpose. WHO CARES what they think???!!!!
"But we love Rosie"
"SHUT-UP AND EAT!!!"
LOL..very funny
Heck, a few dozen of Rosie's look alikes could fill most stadiums.
George W. Bush will be reelected by a margin of at least ten per cent
Okay, that's fine. She's alright. She's married to some guy, it's fine. Ah huh. Yeah. The thing is -- it's fine, it's alright, leave it. What do I care? I don't even watch TV in the day... He is a cute boy. And I'm gonna leave it there because I see that camera rolling.
Do I detect a bit of innuendo here? Sounds as though she know Jones is a fellow lezbian.
When did this mental giant learn to read and write?
LoL! I'd go see that too.
Cher's crowd were just a bunch of fags who saw it as a grand evening to show up wearing their Cher fashion collections.
Hollywood's washed up nit-wits get a dose of reality.
The left likes to worship their favorite screen stars. They are just actors, who 9 times out of 10 in real life are just as dumb or more so than the average unwashed liberal high school drop-out.
What makes them even more so is that they begin to live in an altered reality due to their riches and hollywood pandering, the loose touch with reality at a younger age.
Very few hollywood actors get notice from me. I for one, can't stand all these hollywood pandering tv shows, inside entertainment for example. Why are we bombarded with this useless information? The TV set isn't worth turning on, especially during prime time,, because this is all we see, hollywood tv star B.S. and reality shows.
Save energy, leave the tv off. It's better to spend time scanning the internet for truthful news, spread it around so others can become informed, than it is to sit in front of biased lefty t.v. and allow yourself to become brainwashed.
All these celebrity get out the vote rallies are bombing....Good news for us.
This is the kind of crap that makes me wonder about the "accuracy" of all these polls. From what I've seen on the news in the past Cher usually packs the house, and Rosie, well, Rosie had it made but she blew it.
LOL
humor - the litmus test that identifies a conservative vs a liberal : )
Clearly this proves that florida is a magnet for celebrity losers this year, Cher, Rosie, Kerry......etc
Uh..Rosie...this is the same UN that ran the Oil For Food scam? Hmm...great idea, let's get a UN vote on how to "help" all the world come together. Angry and screaming does not equal funny.
And only 38 people? Well, I guess you are right. The people there just didn't get your gig together right.
What does that say about your people? "Our people" here in Jacksonville had over 250 volunteers help organize for Bush's rally of over 50,000. Not only can you not get die hard Democrats come to see you for free, you can't organize a rally. Now how are your people going to run this country?
Clinton told about 300 cheering supporters in a theater
And now this....LOL!
We're gonna have to win it by about a 20% margin, I figure - to beat the fraud and the brown-shirts army
but I take comfort in the "unscientific" of 1.4 MILLION teens

When you consider that our schools are lopsided with liberal thought police - this is amazing.
