Barbra Streisand warns John McCain: Women are not that stupid! »

Posted By MyWayOnNow 1 year, 2 months ago in News

Barbra Streisand has some theories about why Republican presidential candidate John McCain picked Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate. " Maybe he was sick of the lack of media attention…maybe he had enough of the late night talk show hosts poking fun at his age…maybe he realized that belonging to a party that has been associated with rich, white men was not going to connect with voters in this historical election year."

    Sarah Palin can't run her own household without screwing up, and this is supposed to be the 'female' who best represents women in America today . .. what do I say to my 14 year old daughter about gov sarah's pregnant teenage daughter? This is the role model for my daughter and my 16 year old son? The woman is undereducated and obviously not at all intelligent. Another republican sham . .. I think her choice mocks any woman in this country who has tried to raise a family correctly. Again, how can she be trusted to be in charge of anything if she can't even manage her family?

    Who in the HELL cares what Barbra Streisand has to say? She could keep her NOSE in Hollywood (if it will fit). Personally I think her music is terrible anyway. Another celebrity who has long outworn their welcome. Of course....she is right.

    Barbara, you and Obama deserve each other! BS & BO, both offensive, yuck! And by the way, Barbara, you're no spring chicken, so watch out when you call people old! Shame on you!! How insensitive !! I hope you enjoyed your $30,000 steak and rubbing elbows with all those "rich, white men", (Liberal Democrats) when the people in Galveston and the Texas coast are suffering from the devastating storm that hit them last weekend. Perhaps you have been too busy with your millionaire party preparations to even care about the common folk. That shows how you, Barbara, and Obama are totally insensitive and out of touch with what's going on in our country.

      A sermon from the mount!
      "Streisand Says",,, and then she goes back to her millions and big energy sucking estate and cars and lavish life, while we all try to balance our check books and keep a roof over our heads.

      Who cares what she says. If she was not born with a good voice she would be a nobody.
      Streisand is the ultimate hypocrite.

      Sarah Palin fought her way past the old political guard to become Gov. of Alaska and kicked a bunch of corrupt politicians out along the way. She has also locked horns many times with the Oil companies in AK and won.

      This is much more important to our country than anything Streisand has or will ever do.

      Sarah Palin has done a great job for her state as Governor and I would like to see the rest of country do as good.

      As far as president goes, only John McCain has proven he will really work with Reps., Dems, independents and others as well to get things done. That is the only way we can achieve real change in the country.

          "Barbra Streisand warns John McCain: Women are not that stupid!"

          McCain offers Palin as proof that they ARE that stupid.

            Thank you Barbara. And thank you to all the "intelligent" Obama supporters out there. And there are many. You see, after eight years of being screwed most intelligent people would say, enough. Look at it like this: would any "intelligent" person return to a restaurant a second, let alone a third time, being served bad food or getting bad service? I think not. So why, in anyone's right mind, would they go around for a third dose of the same crap? Wake up folks.
            Obama/Biden= Common Sense.
            McCain/Palin= Nonsense
            If you are one that belie ves 'it's God's will' that you need to vote for McCain/Palin you'll also be the same ones saying later that 'the devil made you do it'.

                    Barbra helps Sarah by condemning her.

                        Why does Hollywood think we should uphold their views and standards. Isn't it all "make believe? Aren't they all 'pretenders"? Go to France Babs...that's where you belong
