Tammy Faye Baker on Hardball, she's drunk.

[ShaneGR]

Turn it on! HILARIOUS!

[FlashHarry]

1. Better than the DINO that was on before her.

[Champion Jack]

2. Is she Marilyn Mansons mother?

[NaMeaHou]

3. Marilyn Manson is a genius

If so, he got his brain from poppa.

[Nevernose]

4. Drunk as a skunk!

One might even say, "shitfaced."

Or we could give her the benefit of the doubt. She very well might not be drunk -- she might be on pills.

[frank frankly]

7. very rarely do i miss television

this is one of those times

i remember seeing them 20 years ago--wow, they couldnt have aged well

[Nevernose]

16. She looks almost exactly the same

More wrinkles, which no amount of overly-abundant make-up can hide.

Believe it or not, she has MORE eye make-up than she used to. I can't tell the difference between her top and bottom lashes.

What makes it so entertaining (she's been on TV a lot lately) is that she erally is DRUNK!

(and Matthews still kisses her ass)

[frank frankly]

22. this needs to be available for internet viewing

how grotesque! and bizarre.

is she considered an expert on something!!!!??? WTF?

[SoCalDem]

5. ...and HER opinion is important, because?.....

both husbands went to jail...:wtf:

[PaDUer]

6. She's a

site for sore eyes..lol
I'd love to see her w/ *

[mandyky]

8. I WAS watching Hardball

Changed the channel right after she said her eyelashes connected her to the American people. She is on SOMETHING, for sure!

[ShaneGR]

9. MY PRAYER TO JESUS!

Please lord, in your ever present goodness, convice the Republican Party to hire Tammy Fay Baker as their spokeswoman.

[Dude_CalmDown]

10. Whenever I see her I get very religious...

...because all I can say it "Jesus phuking Christ."

[KoKo]

11. NOOOOOOOOOOOO! she's my hero.......she stood up to them......and she

shopped at TJMAXX! She can't be ALL BAD?

She's a VICTIM......(I really believe this) seriously.........

[_NorCal_D_]

12. Wow

very scary looking.
:)

[madmax]

13. Can't she afford a decent pair of eyelashes!!

She's had two (2) husbands go to jail.....gawd of love those Christians!!!!!

Hope she'll be at the RNC convention :evilgrin:

[Bozita]

32. Those eyelashes are fresh from the Firestone plant in Akron.

jeeeeez!

[yankeedem]

14. "What do you think about Kennedy's criticism of the president"

"he should just shut up". Really Tammy? You're a joke. Glad you're a spokesperson for them rather than us.

[madmax]

21. Can I have an Amen!

[alphafemale]

15. So the failed televangelist/lunatic freeper/pill poppers...

Who wear make-up like an cheap hooker, may tend to go with bush2

I can say that demographic represents a rather slim segment of the population.


Bush can have 'em.

[QC]

17. I like Tammy.

Early in the AIDS epidemic, when people like Falwell were running around declaring that disease to be God's vengeance on the "sodomites" and "mainstream" voices were calling for a quarantine, she had an AIDS victim on her show and urged her viewers to have sympathy for people with the disease, rather than judging them.

That took guts.

[noiretextatique]

23. i like her too...

i saw the documentary about her, and she's not all bad. she does have guts.

[jonnyblitz]

30. 'The Eyes of Tammy Faye Baker"

yup i saw that also.

[noiretextatique]

34. that's the one...thanks jonnyblitz

and as i recall...tammy is also more accpeting of people of color than most of her former ilk...correct? i seem to remember something about that in the documentary.

[QC]

36. Great little flick, isn't it?

As you point out, tammy is very accepting of people, which I think sets her apart from a lot of her colleagues. Sure--she's politically naive, has bad taste, and probably pops pills, but she has a good heart, and I can overlook a lot of things for that.

[noiretextatique]

39. she came across as very likeable to me

she actually seemed to be the a voice of some *real christian values* in the entire scam. and a huge heart, to boot. she is alright with me :thumbsup:

[KoKo]

41. She's very likeable....it's cruel of us to trash her.....look at what she

found a way to make a living at.....She liked to do "puppet shows" she's a cute little "old thing, now" but she could have been Shari Lewis (do I have the one who did the Lamb Chop thing correctly) IF she'd grown up in some place esle.

I have compassion for her.....I do...we should, too...why? you say? fundie trailor park trash, you say?

Maybe if we walked in her shoes a mile......oh well forget it.....:-(

[QC]

42. If things keep going the way they are

I think a lot of people will get to find out what it's like to be "trailer trash."

[jonnyblitz]

29. I like her too

for similar reasons. I also think she would be a hoot to hang out with. But then I like people who are odd and different.

[SiobhanClancy]

40. I KNEW there was something I liked about you

being "odd" and "different" myself(or so I've been told:)

[Piperay]

35. Yeah, me too...

she seems very naive and childlike and I find her personally likeable. I feel sorry for her and take no pleasure in her downward slide. :-(

[madmax]

18. I think she is drunk...

:crazy: :silly:

[ShaneGR]

19. HOLY SHIT!!!!

SHE'S GREAT!!!!!

Tammy: Hillary is strong.

Tammy: Southern folk are simple, I want a mom as first lady.

Tammy: Hillary will do well in the cities, but us southern folk are simple. We like stay at home moms.

[LittleDannySlowhorse]

24. Meat and potatoes

We're simple folk! We like meat and potatoes! Jesus!

[SoCalDem]

26. and she got her wish... a meathead president

:(

[madmax]

28. Gold plated faucets and air conditioned dog houses.

Eat Sh*t Tammy.

[LittleDannySlowhorse]

20. She's not drunk

She's always like this. I saw her on Larry King last week and she was just like this.

You should see the documentary "The Eyes of Tammy Faye". It is truly like watching a CAR ACCIDENT, my friends, and you get to see her all twisted up on every single pill known to man. There's one clip with her and Jim Bakker during a PTL broadcast where she's completely shitfaced on vicodin and wandering aimlessly around the set yelling crazy shit. I own my own copy.

[frank frankly]

25. please share this somehow

what a nightmare

[alphafemale]

27. <<<shudder>>>

That was...awful.

What is she about 60 now? She was trying to giggle and squeal like a 13 year old girl.

Of course that's a freeper's ideal womanhood I suppose.

[jonnyblitz]

31. she's not really a freeper now.

She had a short-lived talk show with an HIV poz gay man...She is an odd one but she is harmless. People need to save their venom for those truly deserving of it.

[tjdee]

33. Jim J. Bullock was HIV+?

Oh, that's sad, I didn't know that.

[Piperay]

37. I pretty sure he does because

I remember both him and Tammy Faye being sick at the same time, she had colon cancer.

[renie408]

38. Are you sure?

Cause she sort of acts like she's drunk all the time. They live about ten minutes from me and I see her in the Harris Teeter sometimes. She can't drive for shit, either. I think Roe has taken to driving her around because she is such an awful driver. They live in the most sedate two story brick house in the same neighborhood as some friends of mine. I keep waiting for her to paint the shutters neon pink or something.
