She's CLUELESS alright. Stacey Dash, who supported Mitt Romney posted a 1,344 word rant over his loss and posted, to of all places, TMZ.

Disturbing and clueless.

Stacey, go sit in a corner and STFU.

I only read half because I disagree with her assertions, but it is well-written. It's not like she's Jim Colyer, White Supremacist.

It was well written and she ends it very nicely. Republitards like Mikey, Goth, JC WS, etc. will never be able to think like that.

See, if Republicans were as even-keeled as this, there might actually be some dialogue in this country.

I think there is more dialogue than we realize. Or participate in.

(I got alot out of reading that).

This is true. For me, Dash's letter represents the middle-leaning Republican that the party as a whole should be emulating to survive.

I agree wholeheartedly.

1. I agree with everyone about who well-written it is, and how it would be nice if more of her party was as eloquent as she.

2. I wonder if she's got an Isabella Rossellini from "Death Becomes Her" type-character giving her a potion, because she looks barely older now than she did in Clueless (and she was already past high school age then!). Seriously, it's almost freaky how great she looks.

1.) Agreed. Even people who disagreed with her position do not consider the letter a ramble or a rant.

2.) I agree with the joke that went around Twitter that Stacey Dash is clearly staying younger by looking at a picture of Lindsay Lohan, Dorian Gray style.

Well I grew up with Miss Dash in the Fordham section of the Bronx and worked with her brother for a time in the '90s. I have to agree she looks amazingly fit for her age, but so do I, if I do say so myself!

Uh....why do you assume that SHE actually wrote it?

[Borstalboy]

Well, whoever wrote it seems to understand that elections and life are not specifically designed to serve one's own needs. She seems willing to simply make do the best she can with what's available and not wail over spilled milk. There is something about that that strikes me as being genuinely righteous and, yes, American.

I agree, Borstal.

if people feel she is articulate, it seems to me she has to articulate why she feels the only route to fiscal responsibility and lowered taxes is for certain subsets of american citizens to live as second class citizens. if she feels that's not the case, she should articulate that the republican gamble to restore the economy is worth the rights of her colleagues who happen to be gay. her piece does neither.

she should also articulate how she felt about how, up until 1979, you couldn't be black and serve as a deacon or elder in the mormon church. it was an officially racist organization. romney was an adult at that time. was she the least curious how he felt about that? was he unhappy about that situation in 1975, say? did he protest it in any way? does she know that the book of the mormon claims that there was a battle of comura in upstate NY, where the fair-skinned, handsome nephites defeated the dark-skinned laminites, whose dark skin was a curse from the mormon god, elohim? the mormon elders changed the ban on black deacons as the civil rights movement swept the nation, and claimed they did so because god gave them a revelation. does she believe that the firmament cracked open, and a big booming voice told the mormons, "HEY GUYS, SORRY, BLACKS DESERVE EQUAL RIGHTS AFTER ALL, I'M SORRY YOU DIDN'T GET THE MEMO."

(btw, mark this post, when gay marriage is mainstream, you can trust the mormon church will get the same memo about gay folks)

i would wager that she didn't know any of this or think about it.

i would also like her to articulate what she thinks of romney chastising female members of his congregation when they had sex out of wedlock. does she think that was an appropriate way for him to speak to them?

i would wager that she didn't know that either.

also, she seemed to approve of romneycare, and articulated that she felt that it had done a lot of good. why is obamacare wrong, then, since they are basically the same and had their genesis in republican think tanks?
