Why do people still care that she exists?

Even at the height of her popularity, she was still an actress. Now you might want to steady yourself, but actors and actresses don't know a fucking thing about politics.

While you don't get bonus knowledge because you're an actor, it doesn't prohibit you from being sane.

She just happens to be especially insane.

1. The headline of the Guardian piece Malcolm linked says, "Jane Fonda apologises over Toronto petition." Really? They link her blog post, but did they read it?

2. Speaking of that blog post: does she know what a paragraph is?

I will rewatch Barbarella and see if she ever references such a thing, there.

Using paragraphs releases more deadly carbon into the atmosphere.

That makes sense. People don't need paragraphs.

If she weren't so cheap, she could buy offsetting comma credits.

No sir, it does not. However in this country, and especially within our MSM, it seems that our celebrities, even people like Kathy Griffin, are royalty, infallible, and their opinions mean more than not only us common folk, but also those who are actually in the know.
