Roseanne Barr Lashes Out at Co-Stars Sara Gilbert, Michael Fishman

Roseanne Barr, the sitcom superstar fired by ABC Tuesday over a racist tweet, did not react well to statements released by her Roseanne co-stars Sara Gilbert and Michael Fishman. Gilbert, who played Roseanne Connor’s daughter Darlene — and who reportedly was responsible for the sitcom’s reboot — condemned Barr in a widely-circulated tweet Tuesday.

“Roseanne’s recent comments about Valerie Jarrett, and so much more, are abhorrent and do not reflect the beliefs of our cast and crew or anyone associated with our show. I am disappointed in her actions to say the least,” Gilbert said.

...”So, Rosanne makes this woman’s entire career and she kicks her when she’s down just so she can virtue signal. How hard is it just to keep quiet?”...

I doubt that most people will respect these grown actors, whose success came directly from Roseanne Barr’s show, stepping out to condemn because it is the “band wagon” politically correct thing to do. As I see it, Rosanne should not have tweeted, however, she did not say anything that Jimmy Kimmel and all of MSNBC and CNN leave impressions of every single day about Donald Trump and his supporters. It is the unsavory speech, which I believe our Freedom Amendment is there to protect. The next book I read will be,”Suicide of the West,” for we are watching that unfold each and every day of our lives in the US as known individuals are targeted for ruination by the powers that be without a day in court. Big media is making the decision about who they want to hush and who they want to ruin.

Racially, both parents qualify as black. Although if I met either one on the street, I wouldn't know they were black.

But they are "black" and their daughter is "black". I just didn't know she was. I rather doubt Valerie Jarrett has faced any discrimination for being black. The opposite, if anything.

You might want to do a quick Google search of her bio before making such a remark.

“I am so sick of the racial hysteria crap.

This is speeding ticket level racism. in a sane world jarrett would have said that Roseanne is one to talk about looks and it would be over.

I am so sick of political correctness, minority supremacy, and making racial mountains out of Molehills.

Liberal identity politics is destroying free speech and America along with it.”

BRILLIANTLY said!

Jarrett’s DADDY is definately black.

He may be black enough to claim such on a census form, but his photos all give a very mixed-race appearance. Seems to be very common in the western communist subculture.

Roseanne made a funny comment in the spirit of George Carlin, Lenny Bruce, or Rush Limbaugh. I thought the left liked "edgy" humor? Isn't that the Entertainment Left's mantra? How many times do they try to shove "edgy" down our throats, and belittle us when we don't like it?

The more I think about it, the more I am convinced that Roseanne's comment was spot on. Hey ABC, get with the program!. It's edgy, man!

“Gilbert is pretty vocal about how she feels on issues, like most Hollywood types”

That doesn’t mean that her vocalizations are honest.

Hmmmm....Roseanne’s Tweet doesn’t reflect the views of the cast, but this Leftist idiot would have you think her Tweet reflects the views of every Trump voter...

There’s no doubt VJ has long been (and still is) hussein44’s handler for multiple radical terrorist groups including Iran, MuzzieBroHood & CPUSA.

And, via Vernon Jarrett, for the Saudi factions the new Prince Salman is trying to rein in.

Oh, I assume she’s had a stellar film, stage and television career that I missed, lol.

It's easy enough to check out: IMDB: Sara Gilbert

Why the snark?

Because Sara Gilbert is nothing but a virtue-signalling little backstabber and a toady to the left wing. And I know freepers don’t know much about show biz but to think she’s had a stellar career is beyond mind-blowing. I love the guy who’s worried about ABC janitors and commissary workers.
