Following President Obama's January 5 executive gun control announcement, the White House emailed "talking points" to celebrities which they, in turn, tweeted out in support of the new controls.

Left-wing celebretards, readin’ their lines. It’s all they got. We grow grows weary of these know-nothing tools. Most of them have no valuable real-world skills, all they know is cheap talk and posturing. Just like politicians, eh?
