MSNBC's JOY REID Should be FIRED Today !! What she did was ten times worse than Roseanne !!!

Turns out it was all just a big misunderstanding:

Roseanne Barr has just given a master class on how not to apologize for a massive public flameout.

Appearing on Fox News pundit Sean Hannity's show Thursday, Barr claimed the backlash over a widely condemned racist tweet that led to ABC canceling her show was a huge misunderstanding.

The tweet implied that senior Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett was the offspring of the Muslim Brotherhood and an ape. Barr's defense? She didn't know Jarrett — who was born in Iran to American parents — was an African-American woman.

"You could have knocked me over with a feather when they said she was African-American," Barr told Hannity of the moment when executives from ABC asked her to explain the posting. "I thought she was Middle Eastern."

Which implies she did think it was OK to compare a person from a country in the Middle East to the offspring of an ape — another serious stereotype.

There was no discussion of the other time she called a black Obama official an ape: a 2013 tweet where she said former national security adviser Susan Rice was a man with the genitalia of an ape.

recent video she released on YouTube, saying of Jarrett, "I thought the b**** was white," was a joke.

"I made a mistake," Barr said of the original tweet, after a bit of prodding from Hannity. "And I lost everything."

Hannity devoted his entire, hourlong show Thursday to his talk with Barr. It was hyped as the superstar comic's first TV interview after ABC dropped one of the highest-rated shows of the last TV season within hours of her posting back in May.

But, despite having an hour to make her case, Barr rarely stuck with one topic for long, hopscotching through various topics and defenses. In one part of the interview, the comic insisted she didn't want to hurt anyone or cause anyone pain.

In another moment, she made fun of Jarrett's haircut after delivering a rambling non-apology that mostly seemed to blame Jarrett for being offended by the tweet in the first place.

"I'm so sorry that you thought I was racist and that you thought my tweet was racist, because it wasn't," Barr said, after Hannity asked what she might say to Jarrett if they spoke on the phone or if she was watching his show. Barr looked into the camera and said, "I'm sorry that you feel harmed and hurt. I never meant that and for that I apologize."

Jarrett appeared on the daytime talk show The View on Wednesday and said she wasn't planning on watching Barr's interview.

There was one question Barr wouldn't answer: whether she was paid by ABC when she agreed to step away from her sitcom revival after the cancellation, allowing the show's remaining cast members and crew to develop a show without her called The Conners, debuting this fall.

Barr said she has struggled with mental health issues, adding she had multiple personalities that were integrated a dozen years ago through therapy.

"We could turn this into a really great, teachable moment," Barr told Hannity.

But, in watching a once-great sitcom star fail to really explain the racist outburst that ruined her career, viewers have seen all they need to know.

Which race or races are ok to compare to apes?
Do you think Dr. Zira looks like anyone who's name rhymms with Jalerie Varret?
 
“I was afraid to go out, and also because when you’re called a racist and you live on an island full of brown people, it’s kind of terrifying,” (Ten percent of Hawaii’s population is “Native Hawaiian,” meaning of Polynesian descent. The majority of Hawaii’s population is Asian and white.)

Barr attributed her falling-out with Hollywood to anti-Semitism: “They lost a good friend; I clearly didn’t. I understand why [the cast] wanted to distance themselves because that’s how the blacklist works, and it’s always Jewish people, excuse me. Sometimes I’ve felt like I’m going to start wearing the yellow star in Hollywood on my arm wherever I go.”

Last week, she posted a puzzling YouTube video featuring a disheveled Barr smoking a cigarette, screaming in attempts to defend her actions.

“I’m trying to talk about Iran! I’m trying to talk about Valerie Jarrett about the Iran deal. That’s what my tweet was about,” Barr screamed.

“I thought the bitch was white!” she said, getting even louder. “Goddamnit, I thought the bitch was white. F—!”

“I recognize she thinks I wronged her,” the star said about her tweet, revealing a frustration with the response to her public apology. “All my friends said ‘Your mistake was to apologize to the left,’ because when they see blood in the water they’re going to come until you’re dead. And I think that’s kind of true.”
 
Roseanne Barr is now saying she told network executives her dissociative identity disorder began to reappear because of the stress of heavily promoting her Roseanne reboot. “It was scary, Sean. I told ABC that I don’t feel like I’m in a good mentally balanced place,” she explained, per THR. “I became Ambien dependent.” Barr said her Ambien intake became so excessive that she would wake up to discover “eggs cracked on the wall” from attempts at making brownies, and “Triscuits and cheese” scattered around her kitchen that served as sleep-walking snacks. “Ambien does that to people,” Barr concluded. (As for Ambien, the pharmaceutical company behind it said “racism is not a known side effect.” Zoinks!)

As none of us has budged from our positions in the last 8+ years I have been around . . . I would argue that most of those that once claimed to be 'conservatives' have devolved into Trump worshippers (decidedly not a wholly conservative position in retrospect). But, seeing as we really aren't persuading anyone to see things in a different light we have all devolved into simply trolling each other. Some still attempt honest discussion, but those attempts are rarely reciprocated and usually just promote more trolling or juvenile retorts. Aff, B-ear Crap, Bernie, Ricky, the plumber went almost exclusively troll when he jumped all the way on to the Trump train the moment the election results were confirmed (similar to yourself when Obama's first term electoral results were verified), so now he is a shit giver, almost exclusively. Joe is the king of trolls on your side and has drug the rest of you down with him. nono use to stand out, but now is just a psycho side show. Joe sets pace with his over the top enormous volume of divisive, fear and hate filled articles as the rest of you bring up the rear, the cheering peanut gallery . . . so, as attempts at discussion have been rendered moot, I troll you back, it's what we do. IMHO

The Conservative Party is evolving into a Party that now stands up for it's self and won't
take shit from LIARS like you....
You've had your day in the sun as a Disgusting Deceptive Lying Democrat that got
relatively little push back from your opposition....those days are now long gone.
Now you need to be prepared to choose sides....as I've stated many many many times before....

You can choose between:

TRUTH and HONESTY ( Conservative )

or

LIES and DECEPTION ( Communist/Democrat )


Choose wisely angry Rodent.
