August 27, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) - In the aftermath of the Family Research Council shooting, prominent voices on the Left have not tapped down their violent rhetoric against their opponents. Two Baby Boomer celebrities have taken to Twitter to hope pro-life, pro-family individuals and U.S. Congressman Todd Akin suffer a drowning or a same-sex rape, respectively.
Ellen Barkin, 58, played the temptress in 1989's "Sea of Love."
On Sunday, Ellen Barkin expressed her hope that Tropical Storm Isaac would smash up the Republican National Convention in Tampa and drown all its delegates.
She retweeted the message of one of her followers that read: Cmon #Isaac! Wash every pro-life, anti-education, anti-woman, xenophobic, gay-bashing, racist SOB right into the ocean! #RNC Barkin did not express any disagreement in her retweet.
The storm is expected to grow into a Category 1 hurricane before slamming into the Gulf Coast on Wednesday, the seventh anniversary of Hurricane Katrina.
After a number of followers asked if it wasnt extreme to wish death upon ones political opponents, Barkin instead blamed the website Twitchy, which is owned by Michelle Malkin, for reporting the tweet. However, as Twitchy pointed out in response, it hadnt yet reported the event.
Strong language on abortion that of Senate candidate Todd Akin also inspired Sixties warbler and mother of transgender son Chaz Bono Cher to call for the congressman to be raped by an AIDS victim. Cher tweeted that it would be an act of kama - presumably karma - if Missouri Congressman would get raped by man with HIV/AIDS. Nothing will happen, right? Body shuts down as defense mechanism.
The opening of the Republican convention has been postponed until Tuesday because of Isaac. Todays theme, We Can Do Better, and keynote speakers such as Sen. Rand Paul and former Democratic Congressman Arthur Davis, will be plugged into an abbreviated, three-day convention.
Barkin, who describes herself as a Bronx girl on her Twitter page, has posted a number of vitriolic tweets in the past.
Despite the coverage tweets such as this weeks have earned her, social media outreach may not be her prowess. After the controversy, someone alerted her to an internet hoax on FB.
The 58-year-old Barkin, who began her acting career with an uncredited role in Cheech and Chongs 1978 movie Up in Smoke, replied by asking, What is FB?
You know - the older I get the more I realize that this is the driving force behind almost every negative action I see.
I did not get enough personal evidence in my life until I was over 40 but since then I watch for it and see, and you are exactly right.
There is an old saying "You are what you hate" and that describes 'projection' perfectly.
I teach that to my children all the time- people are generally the exact same way they think others are.
This is why conservatives get nailed all the time I tend to trust everyone and think everyone has loving and caring thoughts and actions, and so when someone comes along and outright lies to me it generally shocks me, but it is usually from a liberal.
I used to own 14 apartment units, and any contractor I hired who said "dont worry, you can trust me" became a red flag that was usually a sure sign they were a lying thief.
What a genius!
Must have someone else read her script to her.
Latest acting job - a Buttinsky mother of a surrogate mother who is having a child for a homosexual couple in NBC's new series "The New Normal."
Pray tell, she must be the "wise one" of the cast who imparts her worldly wisdom on the lesser lights of the cast.
NBC? TV show featuring homosexuals?
Pool starts now for:
How long before Chik-fil-A is mentioned?
How long before the word "homophobe" is used?
How long before reruns of "My Mother the Car" replaces this crock?
FUEB
get a job
How long before Chik-fil-A is mentioned? Ten minutes.
How long before the word “homophobe” is used? First five minutes, but I won’t be watching this tripe.
Two washed up hags who are as ugly on the outside as they are on the inside. I guess all that skin stretching of their face does more then make them look stupid, it makes them angry.
The wall has been hit.
Contemporary troubadors and court jesters.
That's what they are -- and they know it.
OMG the evil of the baby-murder supporters is incredible
Because we don’t like abortion and killing babies they think we should DIE?????
The older I get, the more I see its simple wisdom and its unsaid advice and counsel.
Judging by her comment, perhaps this lassie is “pro-murder of babies, anti-education but pro-brainwashing of the youth, anti-male, anti-religion (but would never specify Islam — she’d say “all religions”), and is herself a racist SOB.
“Why is that watermelon there? “
“I’ll tell you later”
Thank you. And the reason your friend “just knows it” is because he was raised in a society whose ethics and morality was based upon the tenanats of Judeo-Christainity. I wonder if any atheists ever thought of that? The society that they condemn as ‘bigoted and biased’ is the one that gives them the freedom to dissent and believe as they do. Of course we see the benevolence of their toleration everyday in the political discourse fromt the left.
Is that the new Adams family?
I know when I need advice on global economic issues and the fate of our country I always wonder what Cher and Ellen Barkin think...
“Cher strikes me as totally emotionally unstable. Shes like a deranged leftoever hippie who talks about world peace and love one minute and how she hates teabaggers the next. “
Whaddya mean she’s “like” a deranged, leftoever, hippie?
