Sandy Duncan Speaks Out (Doesn't 'respect' Pres. Bush, Dubya not 'really smart' or 'globally aware')
MSNBC ^ | April 1, 2003 | Jeanette Walls

Posted on 04/21/2003 9:21:31 AM PDT by ewing

The Dixie Chicks aren't the only Texas natives bashing President George W. Bush.

Sandy Duncan who is performing in South Carolina, told a local paper that she questioned the decision to go to war, and wishes that rather than President Bush, the United States had a leader who was 'globally aware' and 'really smart.'

'I just wish men would quit thinking they could just duke it out with each other,' the native of Henderson, Texas, told the Times and Democrat.

'I don't have all of the facts, and who knows what's really the truth, but I really don't respect [President Bush's] way of dealing with this situation.

It would be great to have someone really, really smart in that office, and someone who is globally aware.'

Judy was much hotter than Sandy.

I'm still convinced we haven't unearthed everything Sandy did. Maybe that was her with the bad sock puppet named "Lambchop?"

Maybe this was a career move so she could get a gig on stage in some liberal part of town.

"Begin countdown to glass eye jokes"

You just HAD to say it!......

I See You!

A few days before his proctological exam, a one eyed man accidentally swallowed his glass eye. He was worried for a while, but there were no ill effects, so he forgot about it.
Once he was in the doctor's office, the man followed instructions, undressed, and bent over. The first thing the proctologist saw when he looked up the man's arse was that eye staring right back at him. "You know, " said the doctor, "you really have to learn to trust me."

Sandy Duncan Bio

Sandy DuncanBiography
A popular and energetic star of TV and musicals, whose career was slowed in the early 1970s by surgery for a brain tumor which caused her to lose an eye, Sandy Duncan is best known for replacing Valerie Harper as the female household figure in the sitcom "Valerie's Family/The Hogan's Family" (NBC, later CBS), on which she appeared from 1987-1991. Theatergoers also know the petite strawberry blonde for her Tony-nominated Broadway appearances in "Canterbury Tales (1969), "The Boy Friend" (1970) and "Peter Pan" (1979-81). And aficionados of TV commercials recall her as the spokesperson for Nabisco's Wheat Thins crackers, in which she appeared with her sons.

     A pixish singer-dancer-actress, with a sometimes squeaky voice which still has a lilt of an East Texas accent, Duncan made her stage debut before she was a teenager in a Dallas production of "The King and I" (1958). She made her Broadway debut in 1965 in a revival of "The Music Man", one of the first of several musicals in which she appeared at the City Center Theatre. Duncan briefly returned to Broadway replacing Twiggy as leading lady to Tommy Tune in "My One and Only".

     In 1971. Duncan made a stab at leading roles in films. She played wife to research scientist Dean Jones in her debut, "The $1,000,000 Duck" (1971), and was the sweetness and light heroine involved with two radical guys in "The Star Spangled Girl" (also 1971), adapted from a Neil Simon play. Most of her subsequent credits, however, have been confined to providing the voices for animated characters, such as Vixey in "The Fox and the Hound" (1981), Peepers in "Rock-a-Doodle" (1992), and Queen Uberta in "The Swan Princess" (1994). Mostly, Duncan found her niche on stage and TV. She had her own shot at a series with "Funny Face" (CBS, 1971), which was revamped and renamed "The Sandy Duncan Show" the next year. In 1987, she joined what was then called "Valerie's Family" (NBC) after Valerie Harper left her sitcom in a contractual dispute. Her best work in longforms was probably as Miss Anne, the young woman of the plantation who teaches Kunte Kinte's daughter, Kizzy (Leslie Uggams) to read, but then denounces Kizzy when she refuses to be her servant in the groundbreaking ABC miniseries "Roots" (1977). She joined Judith Light and Jill Eikenberry as one-time members of a one-hit girl singing group who reunite for a TV show in "My Boyfriend's Back" (NBC, 1989). Additionally, Duncan has hosted the "Macy's Thanksgiving Parade" (NBC, 1988) and the "Miss Teen USA Pageant" (CBS, 1990) as well as making numerous appearances on variety and award shows. More recently, she was one of the celebrity participants in "Gail Sheehy's New Passages" (ABC, 1996).

'Fear Factor' and 'The Real World'. Shows that make the static on the UHF stations look appealing......

Oh, that's exagerrating a bit. But there was one old show from many years back that wasn't all that good, but could probably compete with the reality shows if they brought it back. It was called Test Pattern. It only came on late at night, and seemed to be about this indian in a circle who sang. It was just one high pitched note, but, Boy, could he ever hold that sucker!

I read the Saranda to my folks over dinner last night, almost had to give my stepfather the Heimlich!
Never fear, "You have the right to remain stupid" is going to spread far and wide.
And thanks, again.

Another attension seeker. I remember way back Frank Sinatras' son Frank Jr. had himself "kidnaped" as a way to revive his singing "career". Now days they just "put down our Republican President", and get a million dollors worth of FREE publicity!
