My garbage side loves a good bitchslap. Thank you, Alternet.
And don't anyone miss the 7-second "snap out of it" hyperlink - it's perhaps Cher's finest bitchslap work.

Does anyone have any other fav celebrities they'd like to see performing a good bitchslap, for the Alternet staff to go find for us?

If she hadn't divorced Sonny, she'd be in Congress herself.

Thank you for bitchslapping standards of basic communication.

Basically, this tells that a few multimillionaire folks get it, sorta.

Thanks for the nonsense terminology, though.

VOTE ALL REPUBLICANS OUT OF OFFICE!


The Republicans (GOP) are digging a very deep hole for themselves and don't even realize it. The American people voted for change by electing Obama to the Presidency and they continue down the same road that has gotten this county into this horrible financial crisis. I thought we told them with the recent election that we are sick of their policies and divisive ways to keep this country off track and not toward prosperity. I ask all of those who voted for change by electing Obama to send another message that is loud and clear that we are tired of the Republicans favoring the rich over the average american, we are sick of them dividing this country for the worse, we are fed up with greed and corruption by governmental, business, and wall street hoodlums and we are fed up with the Republican Party. Enough is enough!

The Obama administration has proposed pay limits on executives from banks that receive TARP money from the bailout and yet Republicans have come out opposing the pay limits. If you are an average American who’s struggling to provide for your basic necessities, regardless of party affiliation, why would anyone oppose having pay limits to executives who are the main culprits in causing this financial crisis. Republicans just don’t get it! They only represent the rich and powerful and not the average American. I hope everyone wakes up and realize that this is not about Democrat or Republican; it’s about doing what benefits the average American and not the rich.

Let’s not forget the 8 years of Republicans being in charge of the White House and Congress and all of the things that are happening now were caused by them. Two wars that will cost Americans nearly a trillion dollars, worst financial crisis since the great depression, torture, illegal wire-tapping, greed, corruption, wasting the first half of the 700 billion bailout by giving money to bank executives with no oversight etc. The Republicans caused all of these things and more, yet they want the new administration to continue down the same road that they have paved for us. I say NO! I say it’s time that we all wake up and vote overwhelming democratic and remove all Republicans from office.

I ask you all who voted for change to email, fax, call, mail etc. all Republican congressionals and let them know that change has come to this country and that we will no longer tolerate their tired, old, divisive and useless policies.

Join me in the crusade to vote all Republicans out of office.

Most Republicans look like racist rednecks. Has anyone ever noticed. You can see it in their faces.

I banished all Republicans - including family members - from my life over 10 years ago and have never regretted it for a moment. I did this when I realized that Republicans have taken greed, intolerance, selfishness and religious delusion and turned them into a political philosophy.

But i get tired of hearing celebrities rambling their political views. I know its not fair. but they kinda get on my nerves. they may have a gift as far as entertainment is concerned. but for the most part I dont think they are any smarter than than the average american or even realize the problems the average american has to deal with on a daily basis. And dont get me wrong, I like Cher. I loved her back in the day. (kinda had a crush on her when I was a wee lad) and while I know its not fair. I just wish celebrities like her who dont have a clue about the problems facing everyday Americans who are struggling to keep their homes or put food on the table, I find it condescending.

What qualifies Cher to speak knowledgably about political affairs? We have endured Republicans and Democrats in power and out of power. Sometimes the politicians did all right; often they did not. But the country goes on. Cher does not understand why anyone would want to be Republican. If very many Democrats are like Cher I wonder why anyone would want to be Democrat.

and the Bush crowd) are sick to death of the Repigs and their obstructionist policies. They're tired of Repig talking points and their damned TV (Faux) and radio noise machine. I wish this party would go the way of the Whigs. They suck and the country is going down the tubes because of their chickenshit policies over the last eight years.

Just make them go away!

Who ever thought Cher was smart enough to know we had two corrupt political parties.

Pure, proud ignorance. I was seeing someone a few years ago. She was/is a Refucklican. I asked her which party was more in favor of women's rights. She said "Refucklicans" (my name for the party). At that instant I knew she was totally, utterly ignorant about politics. That's why many Refucklicans vote that way. There are a few other reasons, all equally lousy. May the party go dead for the next 50 years.

I was just getting into Mein Kamph, with dreams of Sarah Palin watching as our glorious Army of Armageddon troops marched past, in perfect order, the sound of thousands of synchronized jack boots hitting the ground in unison, huge flags fluttering in the breeze with their beautiful black crosses framed against a white circle and red background . . .

Oh for joy . . . our glorious Republicans, their visions of perfect order, the protectors of the master race, ready to send God's troops to the four corners of the earth, to settle once and for all the mission of the sacred Crusades!

It's only a dream now, but we shall rise again!

This is your typical blathering liberal gasbag hypocrite mumbling about how rich republicans are when Cher's net worth was estimated at 600 million dollars seven years ago. That ugly eye makeup does her justice at least. She looks even more like Satan. Try not to look a liberal dumbocrat in the eyes because the evil blackness you see in them is infectious. It sucks having to work with brain dead demoncraps like these because you feel stupider every time you listen to them: "Duuh.. It's just... I dunno. I just..."
