Speech Copyright 2002 A recent private memo to Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle and House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt from Barbra Streisand and her associate, Marge Tabankin, was leaked to media and reprinted in various edited forms. We present the memo here in its full and final form
Naturally, Barbra’s not surprised to see the Bush Administration evoke strong rhetoric about Democrats caring more about their own ‘special interests’ than protecting the security of the country. Of course, the Republicans will say anything they need to in order to accomplish their own political agenda. Barbra feels that the Democratic Leadership must not continue to take this lying down. While the Republicans are shouting about the Democrats’ special interests, why are the Democrats not saying the same about the Republicans? How can we ignore the obvious influence on the Bush Administration of such special interests as the oil industry, the chemical companies, the logging industry, the defense contractors, the mining industry, and the automobile industry, just to name a few? Many of these industries, run by big Republican donors and insiders, clearly have much to gain if we go to war against Iraq. Barbra urges the Democrats to publicly convey this message to the American people. While there are serious problems with Iraq and Saddam Hussein, Barbra feels that we can’t let this issue become a distraction from the country’s domestic problems and the President’s inability to fully dismantle the Al Qaeda network. Afterall, Saddam Hussein did not bomb the World Trade Center.CONFIDENTIAL MEMO
DATE: September 25, 2002
TO: Congressman Dick Gephardt
FROM: Barbra Streisand/Margery Tabankin
RE: Take the Offense
As you know, Barbra Streisand is busy in rehearsals for the performance she’s giving on Sunday for the DCCC, so she asked me to convey to you her feeling that it is time for the Democrats to get off the defensive and go on the offensive.
What you see above, is the official, correctly spelled version of her memo, which shows what a good speller she is, even when she dictates things over the phone.
Incredibly, 'Barbra' (friend of Aundruw???) talks about herself in the third person, further proof of her perfect mental health.
And, to make this as hillarious as it can be, she also manages to misspell another word (see red) - actually 2 words.
As for "Barbra's not surprised" - I guess Barbra's style shows that Barbra's not writing much lately which is not suprising. She must be spending at least 80% of her life working on her makeup.
I see no reason why a future Demo prez. shouldn't have 'Barbra' as 'Surgeon Genral'. Her stupidity surpasses that of the Elders woman/entity by many orders of magnitude.
I once sent Barbra a thank you letter. I claimed to have bought a $1,000 bottle of wine she was peddling on her web site, and told her I drank it at President Bush's inauguration. I always wondered if she saw it.
Yes, unbelievable. They misspelled words. Who'd have thought?
Damn, buddy, just because she can't spell worth a hoot doesn't mean you're supposed to do the same thing!
ROFL!
Bar-Bra... hmmm....
Babs apparently doesn't read well or didn't sign the memo, or perhaps she had nothing at all to do with the memo except lend her celebrity to a Rat scheme. That is to say, she isn't a Queen, she is but a Rat pawn.
Barbra Streisand has an incredibly outstanding singing voice. In matters other than her singing, she is in the same category as the rest of us. That is to say that she has an opinion, an opinion that is no more or less valid than other opinions. I would seriously doubt she is stupid but I would also seriously doubt that she excels at anything other than singing.
However, I am curious at the way the article spells her first name. Is this a spelling error or is that the way she actually spells Barbara?
I remember an old Letterman gag, a quiz question then directed at Joan Collins, which I now modify to apply to old Babs Brolin:
According to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which requires the most daily maintenance?
(a) The Grand Coulee Dam
(b) The Golden Gate Bridge
(c) Barbra Streisand
Of course, the correct answer is c.
I thought you were trying to be ironical.
How can we ignore the obvious influence on the Bush Administration of such special interests as the oil industry, the chemical companies, the logging industry, the defense contractors, the mining industry, and the automobile industry, just to name a few?Especially the logging industry, huh Babs? Talk about overplaying your hand! Yes the eeeviiil Republicans will cut down all those trees in Iraq.
