Weekly Jackass Number Three - Barbra Streisand

Whoa, I let a Wednesday go by without naming a Weekly Jackass, so to make it up to you, I give you...Barbra Streisand, America's sweetheart. You could write a book with her idiotic quotes (here's a recent one from Say Anything) and her 'statements' on her web page , but here a few of my favorites:

• "The idea of a liberal media bias is simply a myth." (December 10, 2004)
• "This is censorship, pure and simple." (November 4th, 2003 - Babs after CBS cancelled the Reagan program that caused so much controversy - listen up, Barbra, and you, too, Michael Moore: CBS cancelled that show because its viewers were indignant - this is called threatening a boycott. Barbra knew this, but chose to ignore it as it clashed with her right-wing conspiracy theory. On November 10th, Barbra mused on the cancellation thus: 'It couldn't possibly just be the suggested "boycott."' Notice the scare quotes. You see, Babs, CBS is a "business"; they don't enjoy "bad" publicity. Censorship is being FORCED by the government to avoid publication or broadcast; a business decision will never qualify.)
• "...if you choose to air a story about George Bush's military service, or lack thereof, like CBS did last week, you and your award winning news anchor, get investigated by the FCC." (September 28, 2004)
• RUMSFELD,
  WE MUST GET RID OF RUMSFELD -
  HE'S THE SPOOKIEST PERSON IN THE WORLD.
  AS FOR POWELL -
  HE'S NEITHER FISH NOR FOWL.
  HE'S IN THE BACK OF THE ROOM,
  WHILE THEY'RE ALL FIDDLING WITH DOOM.
  NO ONE'S MINDING THE STORE.
  WHAT'S MORE,
  LET'S DISCUSS THIS WAR WE'RE LOST IN,
  DON'T ASK WHAT IT'S COSTIN' -
  WHAT'S A TRILLION OR TWO TO RULE THE WORLD? (special words to "People", An Evening With John Kerry And Friends, June 24, 2004)

I can't continue after the last one as my tears of laughter have impaired my vision. All those were just from ONE PAGE of her website...watch out, ScrappleFace, you've got competition in the Best Humor Site category.

Streisand is the worst kind of limousine liberal, pontificating behind her mansion walls, getting her news from Maureen Dowd (they apparently share the same lyricist) and other professional Bush haters - and she is more than qualified to be Weekly Jackass Number Three. Congratulations, Babs...
