Roseanne Attempts To Blacklist Passion Angelina Jolie
Posted by Dirty Harry on Monday, August 18th, 2008

You see two oh-so liberal Hollywood things at work in Rosanne's vicious attack directed at Jolie and, unbelievably, her children: popeater.com

............."Evil spawn Angelina Jolie and her vacuous hubby Brad Pitt make about forty million dollars a year in violent psychopathic movies and give away three of it to starving children trying to look as if they give a crap about humanity as they spit out more dunces that will consume more than their fair share and wreck the earth even more," Roseanne writes.

"Also Miss Jolie says she likes McCain too and hasn't decided who to endorse….huh? Aren't you supposed to be somewhat enlightened, or do you not know that the African daughter you hold in every picture had parents who suffered and died because of the Republican party's worldwide economic assault on Africa over the last few decades since Reagan?" she adds..................

Add Roseanne to the mile-high pile of celebrities and has-beens who, though rich beyond expression and after a decade at the top, are still unable to walk off stage gracefully. What a sad, small, unfulfilled life she must lead to demean herself in such a way hoping to, just once more and for a fleeting moment, feel the comforting warmth in the spotlight of attention again. What a pitiable figure that she can't be satisfied with the fame she had and the wealth she has.

But look at the soft target she picks to attention-whore herself: Angelina Jolie, "evil spawn" of The Mighty Jon Voight. Jolie's a safe target for this kind of attack and yet another example of what I call "The Passioning" of stars and celebrities considered ideological apostates. It's happened to Mel Gibson and Voight, it's only begun for David Zucker, and now Jolie takes a hit.

Roseanne may be blackhearted, but she's not dumb. She knows that were she to write such a thing about Sean Penn or George Clooney, were she to call Tim Robbins' and Susan Sarandon's children "dunces, " the blowback could effectively end her career. But a savage attack on Jolie and her children…??? Well, in certain circles that will be considered excusable and even justified because Jolie's committed the sin of both being Voight's daughter and not having ruled out the idea of voting for McCain.
