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.
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...
*snicker* ... sure .. right .. *snicker*
Aren't these pathetic rejects high school dropouts? There was an article a few months ago showing practically NO Hollywood actors have graduated from college, and they have the audacity to make fun of President Bush, graduate of Yale and MBA of Harvard?
'Crazy Lesbian Goes Insane At A Kerry Rally.'"
Ahh.. to "go" someplace only to find you've been there for years.
38 turn out to see Rosie at for Kerry rally
a "couple hundred" turn out to see Cher at for Kerry rally
50,000 turn out to see Bush
hmmm-mm who do you think has the momemtum?
(one of my sons & family went up to Daytona to catch Bush - "AWESOME" was my teenage grandson's assessment.)
. . . on second thought - don't tell us.I'm amazed so few people went to see Cher, I might even go see her myself, if it was free. Were these events free?
Pray for W and Our Troops
Friendly fire. You just know that the Kerry Kampaign staff has got to be putting their heads down on their desks and sobbing every time a celebrity speaks up on his behalf, only to say something like this.
Rosie, this country was built on neither the United Nations or the Geneva Convention. (The latter, since you know nothing about it, does not apply to captured terrorists.)

She's right!

Think about this fact:
This woman wants you and me to pay for government-bought turkey basters (ie, fertility clinics) that we were otherwise going to spend on our children's shoes, a necklace for our wives, or paying bills to heat our home in the winter.
She is absolutely disgusting, and that most people don't see it is an outrage in itself.
The foundation of our country is based on going to the UN? LOL That's up there with Cher telling her crowd how the president appoints "Superior Court" judges.
Good grief!
