“I was a fan of CSI:Miami...” I worked on that set here in L.A. and the “higher ups” are “one of us”, nuff said. Especially those on CSINY. ;)
‘_____”higher ups” are “one of us.”
We had a former child actor a few months ago speak to our Rep. Wmns club here in Ventura County, CA, and he assured us there is a strong conservative Hollywood ‘underground’ - - -
On another note, last Tuesday our club sponsored Dinesh D’Souza to speak in an almost thousand seat church auditorium. He stayed and autographed his books.
It was a great evening!

Yup. It’s called Friends of Ronnie, and Ronnie means Reagan. I don’t give a crap if DU trolls read this. But I hope you are one of the invites for tomorrow night from the Hollywood Republicans at an undisclosed location.
The best part? I have a meeting on Wednesday afternoon within a “liberal” studio as I work in the biz. I would love to see their faces in suffering :)
No, no invites today - Ventura County is considered ‘way far away’ by L.A. citizens!
Can’t pretend to travel in those circles, either - - -
Altho I schlepped our youngest daughter years ago when she was in the ‘biz,’ and had a manager to whom we keep in touch - and he is Republican. We just e-mailed about politics the other day. He got on the subject of the Electoral College.
Well, I think it will be a blowout for R and R.
Sans any major voter fraud - - - so I can hear the pleasure you’ll have in that studio Wed.!
The last 3 days (well, not Sunday) I have been standing on street corners with others holding flags and candidates’ signs, and will be out at 7 am Tues. for a high traffic area - commuters headed for the 101 freeway.
Been doing this since 2004!
We have got to get Obumpo out of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
