If you ever had any doubts about the hypocrisy on the Left, the firing of Roseanne should leave you doubt free. To the Left’s credit, they don’t even attempt to hide their hypocrisy and they sure as hell don’t apologize for it.
Roseanne’s biggest mistake wasn’t the tweet, it was apologizing for it. Her apology was the green light for the Left to pounce and destroy. Her apology was a small crack in the door which the Left took full advantage of. It was almost like they wet their pants in glee. Their barrage actually has little to do with Roseanne and everything to do with hitting back at Trump and yes, all of his deplorable supporters. You and me.
I honestly think that Roseanne could sue ABC for wrongful termination. A company, including ABC, cannot fire one person for breaking their sudden new ethical standards while allowing others under their employ to do the same things without any consequences. Just one example of this, and there are many is the ABC show, The View. These women make hateful, unacceptable, ugly, hurtful comments on a regular basis and ABC condones this. This is hypocrisy. The Left in totality does the same thing. Watch a Bill Marr show, remember Kathy Griffin holding a severed head of the President? Listen to Morning Joe, take a day and watch CNN and tell me what you see. Read the front page stories on Yahoo. You’ll soon see that our President is compared to apes, Nazi’s, and Satan himself. Where’s the outrage? Where are the firings? Where are the show cancellations?
I don’t condone what Roseanne tweeted, but if the Left, Hollywood, black lives matter, ME-TOO protesters, and the MSM can tout free speech even though its ugly, racist and hateful, then Roseanne’s tweet is little more than child’s play. It all reminds me of grade school chatter. “Sticks and Stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me.”
Most good and honest people would like to see all of this kind of speech go away but, it never will because people have differing opinions and the right to express them.
What bothers me the most is the one sided free speech attack. Because we no longer can rely upon the media in this country, we are left to fend for ourselves. I’ve written many times about the MSM being the number one enemy and I believe it as strongly today as I ever have. This one little tweet has caused the complete fake melt down on the Left. It would be laughable if not so serious. Not the tweet, but the actions taken by the enemy. Of all the things that have been said, this Roseanne tweet is a nothing burger turned into a national conversation.
North Korea, fake Russia collusion, MS-13, immigration, China, Iran, economy, healthcare, ISIS, police killings; these and many more important subjects have taken a back seat to what? To a tweet calling a person a monkey. Welcome to the MSM’s America.
All we can do is keep fighting for our rights to be heard and for a fairer and equal discussion in this country. Thankfully, we currently have a President who is our mouthpiece. After eight years of complete one-sided Leftist narrative we have a lot to do in order to bring civility back to this country. We can continue our fight for justice and our fight to bring back greatness in America in November by showing up once again and making our voices heard.
“You can always get better. Nobody can stop you from getting better, and nobody can stop you from trying to make something right.” Roseanne Barr
