Comedian and vehement anti-Trumper Rosie O’Donnell thought she was sending a clever tweet.
She said some Republicans, namely Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (IA) and Sen. Orrin Hatch (UT) are “too old” and need to retire.
Fair enough.
Here’s the message:
Do you think Cubans are fighting for healthcare or freedom from Communism?
grassley and hatch – too old – they should be done – come on – at thanksgiving we don't let the 85 year olds carve the turkey #retire

There’s one problem, though, that Rosie forgot to mention.
Diane Feinstein is the oldest member of the Senate.

Feinstein is also 85
Maybe @Rosie thinks we should also send senior citizens out into the wilderness to die so they won't be a burden.https://t.co/HqZ1x8HmYw— Carlos Morales (@k00mbaya) September 22, 2018
Yikes.
O’Donnell went after the GOP, but ended up cutting down Congressional leaders from her own party.
Not long ago, Rosie weighed in on Brett Kavanaugh, per Breitbart:
Actress Rosie O’Donnell tweeted Friday that a vote confirming Judge Brett Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court is “a vote to kill women with back alley abortions.”
a vote for kavanaugh is a vote to kill women with back alley abortions – come on collins – stand up for women #StopKanavaugh #WOMEN4WOMEN pic.twitter.com/0aDVFzKG51

kavanaugh is a liar and a moron #NOonKAVANAUGH https://t.co/WRCRgjMt21

Clearly, O’Donnell’s main gripe with Kavanaugh is that she believes he would overturn Roe v. Wade if SCOTUS decided to reopen the case.
Rosie must not be watching the news, as Kavanaugh has stated repeatedly that he believes in judicial precedent.
Check out Kavanaugh’s response to Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA). She should feel pretty embarrassed.

What more do Democrats need from Kavanaugh on Roe v. Wade?
From Twitchy:
How many times does Kavanaugh have to tell Dianne Feinstein and every other freakin’ Leftist pro-abort on the planet that he believes Roe v. Wade is settled law? Seriously. We’re starting to feel like we’re taking crazy pills.
Rosie might’ve been taking notes from Hillary Clinton:
If Brett Kavanaugh becomes a Supreme Court justice, will he help gut or overturn Roe v. Wade, which legalized abortion in America? Yes, of course he will.
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 5, 2018
A few weeks before Kavanaugh's name appeared on President Trump's short list for a new justice, Kavanaugh praised the dissent in the Roe v. Wade case and called former Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist his “hero,” noting that “he clearly wanted to overrule Roe.”
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 5, 2018
As a federal judge, Kavanaugh tried to prevent a young undocumented woman in government custody from exercising her right to an abortion.
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 5, 2018
Kavanaugh ruled to let CEOs decide to deny their employees insurance coverage for no co-pay birth control.
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 5, 2018
Anti-abortion groups have endorsed Kavanaugh, considering him a reliable vote to overturn Roe. His confirmation would be a victory for activists who want to end a woman's right to make her own health decisions.
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 5, 2018
It's remarkable that we have to keep repeating this, even in 2018: Women's rights are human rights, and human rights are women's rights.
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) September 5, 2018
One of the most fundamental human rights is the right to make the most personal decisions about one's own body. To deny women that is to rob them of the ability to decide their own futures.

If you agree, please pick up the phone right now and call your senators. Ask them to #StopKavanaugh: (202) 224-3121

Just another day in 2018…
