Gilbert and Sully-Man?

Remember the TV show ROSEANNE and the younger daughter character called Darlene? Here's a tidbit about what she's been up to (keep reading, I don't give a darn, either, but you will by the end of this).....
From Wikipedia: In her teens, Sara Gilbert became a vegetarian. Today, she supports numerous organizations such as PETA, Meals on Wheels, Freedom of Speech, Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, and the AIDS Project Los Angeles. She stated on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson in November 2008 that she has now adopted a vegan lifestyle.

She has been in a relationship with Allison Adler since 2002. They have a son, Levi Hank, born in October 2004 and a daughter, Sawyer, born on August 2, 2007. Adler is the birth mother of Levi and Gilbert is the birth mother of Sawyer.

Isn't all of that just precious? Sara is now producing and will be the main host(ess) of a show aiming to 'dethrone' The View, as the linked article puts it. She and "the co-hosts -- moms with children ranging in age from infant to adult -- will swap stories, challenge each other on issues and engage the studio audience and viewers at home about events in the headlines and their own homes through the lens of motherhood," CBS said in a news release Wednesday. "

I dare say it'll be through a whole other 'lens', too, having read her bio. Maybe they'll cover the benefits of childhood veganism and celebrate how "Mommy will have the experience of having one child THIS time and the OTHER Mommy will have the experience NEXT time!" or "You can say the F word, little Betsy, that's FREEDOM OF SPEECH!" Perhaps they'll discuss the VITAL importance of a strong father in a child's life, actually not sullying males for a change (just threw that in for comic relief through sarcasm! Wishful thinking, I guess). Or do you think they really might have a conservative celebrity mother/host with traditional values on to represent that side of America, at least 50% of our moms today? And, if they do, will they include another usually embarrassing woman like The View's Elisabeth Hasselbeck as their token conservative?

This is yet another reason the Hollywood types who are conservative need to step up to the bat, NOW (not when they 'think they're ready', as I've been told), and produce shows American women and America itself could actually benefit from.

Yes, yes, they're 'entitled'.............but SO ARE WE.

I think there was a time in America when they would not have been "entitled."

FairWitness said...

Oh for the love of Pete! I can't stand this anymore. Just how long are we going to accept all this "alternative lifestyles are just as good, if not better, than the traditional family" propaganda from the Left? Who the hell is running CBS, emphasis on the BS? This show is going to cost millions to produce, no doubt. What an idiotic premise for a show to compete with The View. Arghhhh!

the market will take care of this one.

CBS doesn’t care about values. CBS doesn’t care about American society, or social messages, and it certainly doesn’t give a flip about normal people reaching out to one another. What CBS does care about is market share; so long as there is any chance to increase sales of consumer goods within the queer or curious communities, they will have no hesitance in allowing deviants to produce this trash, or in airing it at a time when young school-aged children can view it. You see, these children represent future market share of goods and ideas, no matter how perverse.

Z, 20 - 30 years down the road the people of America are going to look around and ask why our children and young adults are so completely screwed up. They'll ask "How could this happen?"

As well it should. [thumbs up]

Ladies and Gentlemen

Step right up and watch the Freak Show...

A has been trying to jump start her career. Is there nothing that doesn't get a rise out of the drama queens.

Kids should be watching the Lindsay Lohan cell cam.

So happy I won't be tuning in!!!

cube said...

Yikes! And I thought The View was utterly without merit. This sounds even cheesier. Let's hope it goes the way of Air America.

RE: your comment about Hollywood conservatives coming up to bat, I agree, but they must be very careful because they will be swimming in a tank of liberal sharks circling for the kill. Look at the way they spinned Breitbart's recent Sharrod article.

I heard Lawrence O'Donnell on Morning Joe imply that Breitbart' ACORN videos been altered to purposefully make the ACORN workers look bad. Apparently, those workers were merely trying to gather enough evidence against the pimp & prostitute to help the police prosecute them. Yeah, right.

Frankly, I don't know how Joe Scarboro sleeps at night. Oh wait, he was a big friend of Gary Condit while they served so perhaps we can infer something about his character from that.

Ducky's here said...

cube, the ACORN filmmakers (may Antonioni forgive me) went to a large number of sites and not getting a useful response they patched together the video AND the sound. It was heavily edited and the continuity problems are apparent.

Breitbart was unwillingly to turn over the "documentary" (may Errol Morris forgive me) for forensic analysis. But the Dems caved to the rabies media as is their custom.

It was a disgrace just as the cropped Sherrod tape was a disgrace. But you don't seem capable of shame on the right.

Anonymous said...

Now here's an example of brass; a progressive talking about anyone else not having any shame. What a hypocrite.

Craig and Heather said...

Ah-ah-ah. Blanket statement accusation violates unwritten rules of civilized engagement.

I'm docking you 10 points.

OH, DEAR, somebody's not seen the ACORN tapes. now that is SOME EDITING!!!
Man, the left just can't ALLOW themselves to look bad, can they!!
NOTHING THE LEFTWINGERS DO IS EVER WRONG, SHAMEFUL, DISGUSTING, IMMORAL!! (Oh, sorry...those words need to be DEFINED these days..by the Left, correct?)

Breitbart..the new Rush Limbaugh...oops, I mean Sean Hannity..Oh, no, I mean Sarah Palin..oh, no, I mean Glenn Beck..."GOTTA STOP 'EM, GOTTA STOP 'EM..People might HEAR THEM and BELIEEEEVE THEM!! :-)"

Will the left EVER stop and just accept that they are being exposed? Even with a media TOTALLY in their bag? WOW. I'll give them an A+ in Persistence and ANGER, that's for sure :-)

She may claim to be a "vegan"...but she still eats meat.

They're just too damn gross to contemplate.

That's not exactly what he said. Ducky knows the left has problems (please trust me on this, Z).

Ducky did commit the first foul--(er, fowl) play, though.

Trekkie4Ever said...

It really is disgusting isn't? And society just smiles and waves on.

It's Hollywood, so anything and everything is accepted and tolerated, glad the rest of us live in the real world, well, most of us.

Z said...

Anonymous..it just hit me what you mean ..oh, my gosh. :-) laughing my head off here! I hate to admit!

Leticia, society needs real help.

Anonymous said...

A vegan lifestyle? Outside of not eating meat, just what constitutes a vegan lifestyle?

Being a lesbian?

Having children who have no male role model?

What? And who cares?



"That's not exactly what he said. Ducky knows the left has problems (please trust me on this, Z)."

Wow Heather, when I wished you and Ducky, "may you both live happily ever after" I guess I wasn't kidding!

Anon...had to delete. That one crossed the line...sorry.

Pris,

We don't know each other and I fully intend to extend as much respect toward you as you will accept.

That said, I don't see why my statement would cause you to become agitated at me.

I suppose the only answer I can offer you at this time is that you are misunderstanding my intentions and I'm afraid you would not accept my attempted explanation even if I tried.



Z,

I sent you an e-mail and hope it helps clear up any misconception you may have concerning my recent commentary.

Thank you,

Heather

Ducky's here said...

Tie a can on it, Pris.

I was going to give all the boards regulars a share of the income from the Lindsay Lohan live feed reality TV show.

These are tough times and folks can use a little extra grocery money, I'm sure but you're out.

Ducky's here said...

... and just why does "the left have a problem" because some has been lesbian is pitching a TV show?

I know, everyone back in the closet so you don't scare the coupon clippers and the burly ex marines.

Linda said...

Z, thanks for stopping by my blog. Yes, I do love all those grandkids!

As for Sarah Gilbert, and her new show, I don't think it will do well. There may be a lot of queer folk who will watch it, but the rest of us will just keep on living our lives. Our country just keeps going down hill, and it won't change until good people step up to the plate.

As far as I'm concerned, they could all have stayed in the closet....with the doors locked!

Craig and Heather said...

Ducky,
... and just why does "the left have a problem" because some has been lesbian is pitching a TV show?

I never said that was *the* reason the left has problems. Let's not play word games.

You know the left isn't perfect, just as I know the right has lumps.

Why is it so hard to just say it?

Z said...

Ducky... "and just why does "the left have a problem" because some has been lesbian is pitching a TV show?"
It's the RIGHT who has the problem when this happens...

If you'll see from my post, I am more concerned that there is no representation of sound conservative, traditional values which seem to have been much better for children than the leftist stuff that's been pitched and doesn't seem to be quite be doing the trick, considering the shape most of our kids are in these days.

Considering the huge amount of American moms who are at home are more conservative than otherwise, it's the Right's fault for not having produced something like what I suggest yet.

Linda...glad you chimed in on this; I had a hunch you'd have a good opinion! And yes, as I said above...we're NOT stepping up...and when we do, we're so maligned and ridiculed I can hardly blame the Right.

That is the reason Ducky (and his Bolshevik associates) malign and ridicule. They want conservatives to sit down and shut up. They want your eventual docility to allow them unfettered imposition of their destructive social agenda.

Their program is sophisticated and multifaceted. What is the purpose behind the childrens books, “Why Mommy is a Democrat,” and "Momma Voted for Obama?" Why is there a website called Little Democrats?

They saturate television with queer programs, and those that feminize our men and show men as stupid and insensitive. European man bags are cool, and if it isn't bad enough that men have their ear lobes pierced, now there are cosmetics for men.

Of course, whenever you criticize the resident Bolshevik for his patent hypocrisy, he runs over to other blogs and whimpers about your censure. Talk about the effects of feminizing America...

Naturally, the sooner American society fails the better.

You are so right, Z. We've definitely sat back on some things far too long, whether due to ignorance, apathy or cowardice.

And it isn't fun to be one to recognize it, stand up to try to correct the error, only to be shot at by people who either disagree or don't understand what is the root problem.


Honest admission of fallibility is a demonstration of the kind of maturity that allows people to learn from our mistakes and correct them.

Those who are on the "left" (or "right", for that matter) who cannot or will not step up to this level, are perpetuating error that runs much deeper than simple philosophical or intellectual inaccuracy.

...because the issue then becomes a matter of trustworthiness of character and underlying motive rather than difference of opinion concerning recognition of problems and the most appropriate means by which to resolve those problems.

What is this, Dear Abby? True Confessions?

I'm out? Thanks Ducky I appreciate that.

Wouldn't it make more sense to complain about this when and if the show actually airs?

I'm aware of that.

Z said...

Ducky, I think a grand idea would be starting your own blog! Then you can stop telling me what to post. You find what YOU think's interesting and I'll even read your whole posts and make an attempt at understanding why you blogged the story, okay?
thanks.

Gay talk shows on morning TV.

I don't know about the rest of you folks, but i'm seeing another useless, crappy liberal TV show that few watch and will eventually be put to sleep.

Z, society needs a huge reality check, to be sure. They need, Jesus.
