How ludicrous that the person doing an in-depth report on the actions of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Dominique Strauss-Kahn is none other than the illustrious Eliot Spitzer. No way is fiction more provocative than real life.
When Ah-nold made his public apology, requesting that “I ask that the media respect my wife and children through this extremely difficult time. While I deserve your attention and criticism, my family does not.”, he should have considered his family more seriously thirteen years ago when he fathered a son outside of wedlock. How dare he now pretend to have concern for the welfare of his wife and children. Where the hell was that love, respect and care for his family when he made that irresponsible decision in the first place? He has no more contemplation for his family now than he did back then. His role modeling for his children was dead thirteen years ago and is dead today.
Rather than continue with my rant of our morally bankrupt public figures, allow me to present you with a saga of a public figure who took the time and fought the fight for her beliefs and contributions. Remember: our best defense in outing and punishing the scum of this earth is to concentrate our attention on the good guys.
A short history of Roseanne Barr, an entertainer who truly entertained, is in order. Although faced with much criticism for her aggressive ownership of her plentiful comedic talent, Roseanne truly was a model for women asserting themselves in the field of entertainment. Roseanne did what Tina Fey is doing today, only she did it 20 years ago. You might admit that Roseanne was the bridge between the Joan Rivers of 40 years ago and our Tina Fey of today. These three women are vastly talented comedians. Joan made Roseanne’s venture possible and Roseanne widened the path for Tina’s success.
I adored the “Roseanne” sitcom. It was true to life, gritty and above all, hysterical. Enough fanfare; read all about it here:
