Democrat Sarah Jessica Parker faces backlash

[Khephra]

Sex and the City actress Sarah Jessica Parker is facing a backlash from young Republican women opposed to her staunchly Democratic views.

snip........

Referring to her character Carrie Bradshaw, a team of Washington women are wearing black cotton T-shirts emblazoned with slogans including: "Carrie doesn't speak for me. Neither does Kerry" and: "Pro-Manolo, Pro-Bush".

Republican worker Jessica Boulanger says: "We're encouraging other influential women to wear the T-shirt to send the signal that our overwhelming support for Carrie Bradshaw's four-inch stilettos does not mean we overwhelmingly support John Kerry's flip flops."

1. How lame.

Bozos.

[wtmusic]

2. They're still on the debunked "flip-flop" meme?

Oh grow up.

[the Kelly Gang]

3. get a life

[Richardo]

4. Aaaaaaahh pipe down.

Could a political statement BE any more vacuous?

You go girl, fight back against a fictional character in a discontinued soap opera! Fight the power that be! :eyes: Now siddown and shaddup.

9. Word

[MrScorpio]

5. Republicans against TV characters

Isn't this shades of Quayle vs. Murphy Brown?

Why don't these idiots take on some real people?

[AspenRose]

6. Paging the Bush Twins

See what happens when you mention "Sex in (sic) the City" in your speech at the RNC?

[matcom]

7. Boulanger???????????????

is this Bob's DAUGHTER????? :D

[otohara]

8. Good Grief

People are dying, starving, homeless and this is what they come up with?

[Connie_Corleone]

10. Do they know that Carrie is a TV character??

Do they also know the show is over?

LOL!

[Downtown Hound]

12. Shhhhh!

We're still trying to figure out a way to tell them about Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny!

[terrya]

16. It's Dan Quayle fighting Murphy Brown all over again!

Geez, can't these Republicans tell the difference between fiction and reality??? :-)

[no_hypocrisy]

23. If Carrie Bradshaw were a republican, there would be no show called

Sex in the City, provided that her character weren't a Stepford Wife . . .

[calico1]

11. Who cares what Stepford Wife

women have to say? Not me.

[zulchzulu]

13. 3 Repug twits make a big fuss

IT"S A GODDAMN TV SHOW, YOU IDIOTS!

[Lavender Brown]

14. Republicans are TACKY

Sad that they feel threatened by Sarah Jessica Parker. That's really stupid.

[ProfessorGAC]

15. They Are Aware That Carrie Brahsaw Is Fictional, Right?

Pathetic non-thinkers.
The Professor

[tilsammans]

18. Well, . . .

EVERYTHING they believe in is fictional.

[ProfessorGAC]

22. Touche

I had not thought of that! Silly me.
The Professor

[gollygee]

26. hehe :) thanks for the laugh .. . .n/t

[Liberal Veteran]

17. At least Murphy Brown was still going on when Quayle did his thing.

Sex and the City ended it's run.

[SoCalDem]

19. Boo Hoo to those whiners.. She has MORE than enough money

to llive very nicely for the rest of her life.. She grew up very poor, and I think that she has an excellent insight into kmoney managemenet.. and her husband is pretty well off.. I doubt that they will miss any of the republican money..:)

[Philostopher]

21. Not only that, but she grew up in Cincinnati.

I'm guessing having some mean-spirited BS thrown at her by some snotty Republican women isn't new to her, considering that. She probably dealt with it every day of her life until she left -- I did!

[Ducks In A Row]

20. They're calling that a backlash?

Makes sense. They call shrub an elected president.

[Sannum]

24. OMG

These people are ridiculous!

(Plus, I highly doubt that any of them have ever even seen a pair of Manolo Blahniks)

[Lavender Brown]

30. They're among the few who can afford them

[Sannum]

31. I admit, I splurged...

Not because of the name, but because of the quality of them. I have had a pair of pointy toed 4-inch black MB slingbacks that I wear at least 3 times a week and walk across the city in, and they have lasted for about 3 years. My then-boyfriend almost killed me for spending the money, but they have served me very well...They were on sale though, thank god. I work in the Fashion Industry and have learned that sometimes you have to pay a little bit more for things to be of a certain quality. I would never buy anything trendy and tacky like most of the things on S&TC. I have also carried the same handbag that I bought in Paris for about 8 years. It looks just as good today as it looked the day it was shipped. It was also a splurge, but it was during the Clinton Years and the Economy was booming, so I could afford things like that. Now with everything, I wouldn't dream of buying anything like what I was able to buy then. I buy quality, but not quanity.

That being said, I saw the delegates, they were wearing Marshalls and Dillards. It is hard to find MB in the middle of Oklahoma. Stuart Weitzman, maybe.....

[liontamer]

25. goodness

these people are pathetic. How are they in power?

[Rambis]

27. Quick someobdy dis Murphy Brown! -You Effin hacks! *

[cmf]

28. Buh?

How fucking moronic can you get? They do grasp the fact that Carrie Bradshaw is an imaginary character, right?

[miss_kitty]

29. fu*k republican woman

figuratively, not literally...we don't need them to breed.
i can't figure out why darwin rules haven't kicked in on so many of them. especially when this is their dream guy:

Unfit For Command

[AlCzervik]

32. I think Carrie wouldnt be seen in public with them

after seeing their outfits.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

33. You Republican Office Girls had better

get in the kitchen and make me some pie!

[jukes]

34. here's some girls that

need to get laid...

[ChoralScholar]

35. The next headline I want to see in these situations:

Sarah Jessica Parker tells 'backlashing young Republican women' to 'Go to Hell' and 'who she supports is none of their fucking business'.
