Entertainment Tonight reports actress Cybill Shepherd -- most recently of the Showtime lesbian drama The L Word -- finds the prospect of Vice President Palin "terrifying," and even inaccurately claims Palin's so opposed to women's rights that she opposes "the right to birth control." The actress was in New York for More magazine, the periodical for women over 40:
"Any respect I had left for McCain was completely gone when he chose Sarah Palin," she tells ET. "To subject our nation to being that close to having someone so obviously unqualified is terrifying..."
"She's absolutely against women's rights -- the right to choose, the right to end an unwanted pregnancy, the right to have birth control, the right to biological integrity; she's totally against it," explains Cybill. "We've just experienced a financial catastrophe in this country, we're still going through it, and having John McCain and Sarah Palin in office would be another American catastrophe."
Previously, at the premiere for the Robert De Niro Hollywood comedy 'What Just Happened,' Cybill also gave us an earful: "There's no way that she could ever make the grade. I'm sure she's a wonderful woman, but she's completely unqualified, and anybody with any sense knows that. And I think it's almost cruel to subject someone who's so totally unprepared to fulfill [the job]. It's one of the most frightening things that I could ever conceive of, is her being president."
Cybill is routinely terrified at the thought of conservatives taking power. From the vault of the old MRC newsletter Tv Etc. comes a quote from an issue of People magazine, August 27, 1990 to be precise, in which Shepherd declared "I'm absolutely terrified." The cause was the undetermined abortion position of Supreme Court nominee David Souter. Let's hope there's more cause for Cybill to be scared of conservative clout this time.
how can any honest person make the case she is unqualified but Obama is qualified.
ohhh. I was wondering what she thought. /s
Assuming that you know how to do either.
Seriously, there's a reason why Moonlighting made Bruce Willis a star.
I can’t believe the “experience” argument is acutally being used when OBAMA has LESS experience than PALIN does!
Is there nothing these people won’t believe in their support of Obama???
BTW, I'm absolutely certain that Cybill Shepherd can't even run her checkbook, much less a state.
“Any respect I had left for McCain was completely gone when he chose Sarah Palin,”
Oh, so you were a huge McCain supporter before the choice? Get outta here you Lib bitch this is just another reason for you to whine. By the way, when you were young you were a skank so now you are just an old skank.
Must...resist...making...blonde...joke....
I am just wondering, how a conservative like Bruce Willis even stomached being next to this troll!
Then you won't be voting for the vastly less qualified Barak Hussein 0bama.
Right, Cybil?
Talk about an "American Catastrophe," sheesh!
I recall Shepherd had a short-run comedy years ago - she stated loudly that “I want to promote a liberal agenda with my show”.
She lasted a year.
Shepherd’s only credential in Hollywood (other than Bruce Willis) was getting laid by Elvis, or something.
Gee I thought we were way past caring what washed up old actresses think!
I had no idea she was still working. Hope she is well. Not surprised that she obviously knows nothing about the object of her “terror” other than rumors and gossip. These she takes as absolute fact apparently and I am sure is far too certain of her “knowledge” to bother to find out if there is any truth to them. There is a lot of that going around.
Now that’s scary.
I am sick of these idiots making shit up about Sarah! Sarah has stated that she is NOT against birth control. I hope these idiots leave the country when Sarah is elected as VP!
I am just wondering, how a conservative like Bruce Willis even stomached being next to this troll!
Cybill who?
When I was a young whipper-snapper, I really liked her on this 1986 Rolling Stone cover.
