The Mock Dock

Rosie O’Donnell just blabbed her way out of a very lucrative TV deal with MSNBC.  She was in talks to get a one hour time slot following Keith Olbermann to spout off on all kinds of political nonsense, and because she couldn’t keep her big ole mouth shut, the deal was finished before it was even begun. 

I find this infinitely amusing.  Rosie wrote about it on her website, and in her typical I’m-trying-to-look-like-a-genuine-poet-but-really-I-just-look-like-a-3-year-old way, she wrote this:

“msnbc
one hour
live
following keith olbermann

we were close to a deal
almost done
i let it slip in miami
causing panic on the studio end

well
what can u do

2day there is no deal
poof
my career as a pundit is over
b4 it began

just as well
i figure
everything happens for a reason
bashert – as we say

and on we go”

Couple this with the Courtney Love writings in the below post, and you’ve almost got yourself some Britney Spears song lyrics.

Reese was quoted in the AP saying, “I have a real aversion to talking about my own personal politics just because I feel the influence sometimes, I see the influence of celebrity on our culture. And to think that my opinion is any more informed than anyone else’s or taken as thus is erroneous. I’m just like everybody else. I’m learning, reading, I’m trying to figure it out.”

She is officially on my list of girl crushes.  Sean Penn, Tim Robbins, Rosie O’Donnell, Ashley Judd, and all the other big-mouthed celebrities who insist on shoving their politics down everyones’ throats can suck it.
