Seems the Leftards will sacrifice success and income to grind their axes and make their political statements heard by those not the slightest bit interested.

I guess she doesn’t need the writers anymore. She can write her own material. What happens to the Tillerson guy?

ABC was just looking for an excuse to can Roseanne. Her show's surprise and overwhelming success with the deplorables was an embarrassment to the apparatchiks who run ABC. In particular, Roseanne's respect for President Trump was the thorn. I'm sure Soros wasn't pleased, and I'm sure some of the ABC functionaries were called to the carpet over this.

If the cancellation wasn't to be now, then it would have been the next week or the week after. The success of an independent voice which was not hostile toward the President was a situation that would not be allowed to stand. This had very little to do with the joke, and everything to do with the untenable situation ABC found itself in.

The Beverly Hillbillies was written to poke fun at people from the South. Hee Haw was written to poke fun of people from the South. The Dukes of Hazzard was written to poke fun at people from the South. This Roseanne show was written to poke fun at people who were conservative. I always thought it was rather ironic that the Confederate flag on the General Lee in the Dukes of Hazzard cause that show to lose syndication because of the rebel flag that Hollywood put there to poke fun at people from the South. I don’t trust anything coming out of hollyweird. not even Roseanne and her “conservative show”.

Nope. Fred just doubled down. See this clip:

Roseann said something stupid. That is not really a surprise.

What is surprising is how people think of Roseann as a conservative.

The whole episode is an example of how “effed up things are.

I’ve never seen this. Thanks for posting. I have seen so many F bombs dropped since any Robert Deniro movie. Olbermann is a punk

Also ‘’All in the Family’’ was meant to poke fun at conservatives.

Her parents are both African-American

Neither of Barack Hussein 0bama's parents are African-American.

But they do have more than one thing in common. Both of them have ancestors that were slave owners.

Another is Communist Frank Marshall Davis. 0bama’s mentor, worked with the literal relatives of Valerie Jarrett—her grandfather and future father-in-law—in Chicago’s Communist Party circles in the 1940s.

I think rosanne was trying to make a point about Hollywood intolerance of conservatives. ABC was willing to sacrifice hundreds of liberal jobs to punish one conservative. That is how effed up Hollywood is now and rosanne proved it to the world. All of Hollywood has to reckon with it now because Hollywood is a relatively small community. This brings the hypocrisy home.

Also she might be trying to help her crew by labeling them liberals so they can get rehired. It is somewhat interesting that she left out the actors— maybe some of them were already out of the closet and an attempt to label them would have been too obvious of a ploy...

Anyway now maybe fox can pick them up...

Except that Roseanne is clearly not a conservative.

Correction....She lost her job because she went after Valjar and she’s ProTrump...Period.

If she tweeted vile, hateful lies about President Trump ( like everyone else does)....she would still have a show

“Also ‘’All in the Family’’ was meant to poke fun at conservatives.”

As was Colbert.

It is all Schick, every bit of it.

Maybe it’s time for Roseanne to leave acting for something that might fit her personality better. Like a weekend news anchor on FOX News to replace the dark haired mielie mouthed guy they have now.

The left has been looking for a way to get her. She stupidly gave it to them. It would have happened sooner or later, no matter what. The left will not allow anyone to have a show who says they like Trump.
