Ellen Barkin Hopes Hurricane Kills 'Every Pro-Life, Xenophobic, Gay-Bashing SOB' At The RNC
(LifeSiteNews.com) - In the aftermath of the Family Research Council shooting, prominent voices on the Left have not tapped down their violent rhetoric against their opponents. Two Baby Boomer celebrities have taken to Twitter to hope pro-life, pro-family individuals and U.S. Congressman Todd Akin suffer a drowning or a same-sex rape, respectively.

On Sunday, Ellen Barkin expressed her hope that Tropical Storm Isaac would smash up the Republican National Convention in Tampa and drown all its delegates.

She retweeted the message of one of her followers that read: “C’mon #Isaac! Wash every pro-life, anti-education, anti-woman, xenophobic, gay-bashing, racist SOB right into the ocean! #RNC ” Barkin did not express any disagreement in her retweet.

The storm is expected to grow into a Category 1 hurricane before slamming into the Gulf Coast on Wednesday, the seventh anniversary of Hurricane Katrina.

And here I thought that just the (R) are crazy... Thanks Frazzle...

TL;DR: There's whackos everywhere....

Well now, would you look at that...

/departs thread.

**TheHammer**

Yeah, who?

Not that her sentiment is bad, I think if you manage to be all the things she listed that I wouldn't really mind if you did drown.

I also find it funny that those on the right get really upset about stupid comments that nobodies make, while liberals refuse to talk about actual violence committed on the poor and disadvantaged in this nation every day.

As I have a terrific fear of hurricanes, as one of my last surviving relatives died in Katrina in an ambulance being evacuated, she can go

herself.

excuses are like donkey-caves. Everybody got one. Recognize the crazies in your own party (wait I think yours is the communist party given your throwing around terms like "fascist" and "beougousie" in the past) and its easier for others to recognize the crazies in other parties (yes I'll agree Ted Nigent is both crazy and an opportunist).

True story: My uncle got cancer and was denied care because he had a typo on his medical history form (he lived on so-and-so drive, not so-and-so avenue 12 years ago), and then he died.

So, yeah, anyone against the Affordable Care Act can go feth themselves.

Or, are you only upset about hyperbole that has no bearing on reality, and not those that push policies that have lead to the death of my family so that people can make more money?

Well the article says she is a prominent source on the left. I'm pretty well plugged in to politics and popular culture and I had to google her name to remember that she is an actress, and that the only movie I've ever seen her in is Ocean's 13.

Seeing as we're told regularly that the Rep. isn't full of xenophobic, rascist etc etc people then I don't really see quite what we're supposed to be outraged over ?

... I had to google her...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellen_Barkin

Ellen Rona Barkin (born April 16, 1954) is a really horrible American actress. [1]

Known best from her beastiality adult rated movies, Barkin has openly seduced underaged girls into sharing her opium crazed sex life.

.... and people say Wikipedia isn't a great resource !

We can do this without the insults and abuse please. Thanks.

I knew she was an actress, not anything else. The statement is vicious - again to the many people who have died in actual hurricanes and the fact this is in fact an actual storm she is talking about.

She can go

Actually according to the latest polling Republicans over have of them are xenophobic bigots, especially towards muslims.

the article:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/23/republicans-muslims-arabs-poll_n_1825230.html

Republican sentiment toward Muslims produced the highest negative results, with 57 percent of respondents saying they had unfavorable opinions.

The poll:
http://www.scribd.com/doc/103694579/The-American-Divide-Zogby-Poll

Democrats and Obama voters give no group a net negative rating.
Republicans and Romney voters only give strong negative ratings to Arabs, Muslims, Arab Americans, and American Muslims.

**mattyrm**

Ok, so a nobody said something awful on twitter.

gak that's not a story surely, it happens a few million times a week?!

If it was the VP or a major player in politics or the Queen or something maybe its a story.. but some slapper who was in a few films?!

Come on...

Oh my, I've just been called a fascist. Oh noes! Where have I advocated:
*corporate/government collusion and oligarchy?
*an adventurist foreign policy?
*a budget deficit?
*limitation of the Bill of RIghts - especially the First or Second Amendments?
reported, by the way.

But, seriously, I'm tired of you right wingers who control every lever of government and are only upset at the black guy in the Oval Office because he's black

***Actually it sounds like you're the one with racial issues. I've never said anything about race, only that he's incompetent. Ok I may have called him a yankee from Chicago once or twice. . .

and wants to tax the super rich a few percentage points more

I've espoused both higher tax rates (I believe I said Kennedy level) and limitation on deductions at both the personal and corporate level. I've even espoused elimination of corporations as "legal entities" under the law. So evidently you must be for lower tax rates. I've never heard of a socialist for lower tax rates.

constantly acting like you're a fething victim. No one is tying to fences and throwing rocks at you until you die,

Speak for yourself. Why do the villagers keep grabbing torches and pitchforks when I appear?

Just stop the act, it's petty and horrible and just shows how little and insecure you all are.

I can’t believe you’d say that. As an aside to these jeans make my butt look big? No really.

Its a common mistake. They call me all the time, or used to until I killed the landline. I still get calls from the Democratic party in Austin. I keep telling them I died and this is my ghost on the phone. No matter how many times I ask for a mere donation of a soul so that I can be reborn, they won't do it, and keep calling.

**Amaya**

Frazzled made a coherent rebuttal that did not involve wiener dogs?

What the hay...

Ellen Barkin's comments are nothing surprising or notable. Leftists (big and small) make similar statements on a daily basis.

**deathholydeath**

I seriously had to google Barkin. I wouldn't exactly call her a spokesman for the "left," whatever that's supposed to mean in this country.
She sounds like an absolute idiot.

A small prayer. The wife has Tbone at the vet as we speak. he's being having weird sudden drunken episodes. They don't appear to be seizures which is what he has cool drugs for, but maybe. Hopefully its treatable. I am grateful for the time I have had with him. he came along like a little version of Dad right after Dad passed and I am afraid this is not going to be good.

Sure, I'm not disputing that. I'm just objecting to "prominent sources on left." Its like treating Chuck Norris as a prominent source on the right. Both are actors with virtually no political influence, or importance to the larger debate and painting them as such is a case of deliberately conflating social disputes with political ones. Granted, Barkin herself is doing the same thing, but that doesn't excuse granting that position legitimacy.

I'm sorry Fraz.

My parent's cat went missing a few days ago and they're afraid she's dead. Some

probably killed her.

**LoneLictor**

Both parties have crazies and sane people (though the Republican party tends to have slightly more crazies). She's just some whackjob with all sorts of mental problems.

Well waiting on blood tests but looks like related to his seizure stuff and a big dosage increase will probably help control it. Frazzled does happy dance.

You've never been to Sonoma County I assume. We got leftist whackos out the wazoo, they make Rightwingers look tame. I know who I'd rather leave children/small animals unattended with.

The hurricane cares not for your petty ideas of morality, the hurricane destroys as it pleases.
