Rosie O' weighs in on Hillary tearing up

[LibraLiz1973]

Blogger Question:

did u cry when Hillary teared up before the NH primaries?

Rosie's answer:

no - i said - thank god - 2 myself

remember kerry last election
taking off the mike he said
these guys r crooks
a bunch a criminals
everyone in the world sees it
( paraphrase )

when that happened
i said - thank god, too

but kerry did not follow thru
he was cowardly
he refused to lead
to stand up for what he believes
what he is only brave enough 2 say
in private

here is praying
hillary follows thru

1. I've seen some crappy ass craptastic crap poetry on DU

but this takes the crap cake!

[LibraLiz1973]

3. lol... poetry??

[Lex]

8. umm, p.s.--that wasn't meant to be poetry.

nt

[DS1]

11. then what the hell was it?

It was barely coherent!

[Lex]

13. a sort of stream of consciousness blog entry -- no big deal

nothing to get your nose out of joint about certainly

[matcom]

17. YOU SIR on ON THE FUCKING LIST!!1

:rofl:

[DS1]

19. gulp

list?



:D

[movonne]

2. link please...

[LibraLiz1973]

5. Sorry- just added!

[demo dutch]

4. Useless input, Sorry but I can' t stand Rosie

[Lex]

9. her opinion is not less valuable than yours

sorry

[spoony]

12. Not less valuable, just less timely, interesting, well-articulated...

I'd rather read any DUer's journal than wade through the mess she puts out. If she wants to be taken seriously, she could at least put a little effort into it. And whether it's meant to be or not, it's in verse.

[Lex]

15. No one made you click on this thread (with her name in it)

or go to her blog either.

Going out of your way to read it and respond negatively says a lot.

[spoony]

22. It didn't take that much effort. Lol.

No need to get defensive about her.

[Lex]

25. Trashing of people for daring to have an opinion

seems kind of anti-Democratic to me, that's all.

[spoony]

31. You mean like my opinion that her writing sucks?

I encourage her to have an opinion. But I'd love it if she would spend more than five seconds expressing it. You've expended easily fifty times more time and effort, let alone words, defending her crappy style than she has ever spent on one of those steaming heaps of words on her site.

[Lex]

32. Her style is her style. Yours is yours.

Mine is mine. Opinions are just that.

Find what makes you happy instead of pushing so hard against what hurts or annoys you.

6. I think this is the first time I ever agreed with

Rosie O' on anything.

on edit: It may not be great poetry but what she said is true.

[LibraLiz1973]

7. I agree. Also, it wasn't meant to be poetry, it was a blog response.

I think DS got the wrong end of the stick there.


But in any event- that was my problem with Kerry 2004. They were pummeling him and he didn't feel
like kicking their asses. It irked.

[Lex]

10. WHY do people think that her blog entry is supposed to be poetry?

It's funny that they do.

[spoony]

14. Or maybe they're just commenting sardonically on a

pile of words arranged in random fashion in lines resembling bad poetry. I don't think anyone really thinks it's meant to be poetry. It just isn't prose.

[Lex]

18. It's a blog entry, sort of stream of consciousness. She does this on her blog.

That's just the way she writes in her blog.

People are easily confused apparently.

[spoony]

27. Okay, one last time. Slowly.

NO ONE THOUGHT IT WAS REALLY POETRY and NO ONE WAS CONFUSED BUT YOU, from the moment you hopped all over DS1 for a snark.

[Lex]

29. LOL.

You are teh funnieh.

(You meant to be, right?)

[emilyg]

16. Yes.

[wisteria]

20. There is such a thing as diplomacy. You don't call the President of the US a crook without proof you

can take into court and win on.

I am grateful he didn't do such a thing, Bush would have won in a landslide.

[RB TexLa]

21. So what other actors felt the need to give an opinion?

:shrug:

[Lex]

23. Rosie has a blog. Like many people. Like DU'ers.

The OP was taken from her blog.

[LibraLiz1973]

24. Now Lex... you didn't get the memo that because she is a loud

overweight lesbian DEMOCRAT, she is not allowed to have an opinion?

[Lex]

26. I guess everyone else got that memo, but

mine was lost in the mail. :cry:

[LibraLiz1973]

28. Shit!! I guess the postage fell off of at least one

Silly us for thinking she was allowed to have an opinion!

[Lex]

30. Gawd, it's right on cue, isn't it?

Amazing.
