How is condemning this tweet "hate for Trump"? Who is the one who has lost all objectivity?
That is exactly my point.

Why no condemnation for the comedian who said Trump was the offspring of an Orangutan?

Who said that? I am not aware of everything said by every person. Nor do I critique every comedy act doing stand up.

But when you are #1 in the ratings your tweets will get more attention.

You have also neglected the rest of my posts where I put as much blame on ABC as on Roseanne. They gave her this spot because of her tweets and how close she was "flying to the sun". I would not at all put it past ABC for manufacturing this, hiring her with the intention of firing her over an especially egregious tweet (i.e. no publicity is bad publicity). If that were so it would explain the extreme rapidity with which they acted.

That's a twisting of the facts, and you know it.

Maher promised $5 million if Trump could prove he was not born of an orangutan. When he produced his birth certificate, Maher said it was a joke, but Trump said keep your word, I want the money, and I will give it to a charity.

Compared to Roseanne's one stupid twitter comment, Maher was 1000x worse. He mocked Trump's mom slathering herself in banana oil and sneaking into the Brooklyn Zoo. (2:10 thru 2:50 min)

Nothing happened to Maher. He was a leftist celebrity entertainer.

Why didn't Roseanne receive the same treatment for her ape comment? Should not the rules be applied fairly? One set of rules for liberals, and another for conservatives? This is the point!

And of course, millions of "decent" liberals like you and ZNP claimed ignorance about the incident.

It's no different than exonerating Hillary ahead of time for mishandling classified documents (multiple felony crimes) and Muller demanding Trump to answer questions about "collusion" which is not even a crime and for which there is no evidence to date.

One minute you accuse me of listening to left wing comics, the next you blame me for not listening. You can't have it both ways.

Have I ever once quoted Bill Maher on this forum? On what basis do you blame me for not condemning something I had no knowledge of?

You were assumed innocent until you condemned conservatives for doing a fraction of their liberal counterparts.

You don't get to have it both ways.

I only ask for fairness. Hold everyone to the same standard. Is that not the very definition of justice?

Have not we practiced the same with LSM? Holding their leaders to the same standards as the rest of the body of Christ.

It may be that Roseanne did was equivalent to what Bill Maher did, I don't know enough, and if that were true I would condemn him as well. I would not call for him to be fired, and I did not call for her to be fired. I simply said she was a buffoon that "flew too close to the sun". I would say the same of Bill Maher if your quote is a fair representation of what he said.

This is the danger in being a comic and it happens to all of them. We had several well known NYC radio show hosts get fired for doing stupid stuff (that was funny) while on the radio.

Here is another comic that I don't listen to: Samantha Bee on Thursday after the comedian called first daughter Ivanka Trump a “feckless c–t.” Sanders also called on Bee’s bosses at Time Warner and TBS to take action. I think conservatives should welcome what happened to Roseanne, no doubt there will be twice as many liberal comics fired than conservative ones based on this standard.

I also am amused that no one spots the hypocrisy in all this. The people who are outraged that this woman likened someone to being born from "planet of the apes" are the same ones who mock Christians for saying we are not descended from the apes.

Compare the two, watching that video, and then tell me they were "equivalent." You are equating involuntary manslaughter with one of these horrific school shootings.

Rosanne's was a single stupid joke tweet of Jarrett.

Maher featured his entire show around Trump the Orangutan.

Roseanne apologized for the joke and got fired. Maher used it to create hundreds more jokes. No comparison, except if you hate Trump, as you seem to.

I also have enjoyed this ironic side of the story.

Like I said, my point is fairness, justice, impartiality, decency. Both in the church, in politics, and in comedy.

I could never side with the left simply because of their lack of decency and fairness.
