After counting more than a dozen uses of the f-word in the first 15 minutes, I ejected it from my DVD player.

I think Hollywood must talk that way. Not where I live though, thankfully.

Holding the Administration accountable will begin precisely at 12:00 Noon EST on January 20, 2017.

Streep has been living her Liberal Bubble for far too long.

Streep accuse Trump of mocking a Disabled Reporter.
(Most of today’s so called Reporters are mentally disabled due to their being infected with Liberalism)

Streep condones Aborting Babies with Disabilities.

Mocking (even if it didn’t happen) is worse than Murder according to Streep.

I have not watched one of these homosexual, butt kissing, back patting, liberal love in’s in decades. Not even the Oscars. I don’t watch any of that crap any more. The ONLY network TV programs I watch is my local news and weather channels out of Birmingham. I do not watch a darned thing of regular puke programming on those channels. I have quit watching ESPN also.

The Thin Man series and Mr. Roberts. Classic movie telling.

...it's always depressing to see what the ‘entertainment industry’ does with the historic record.

And this is the 'history' that our children are learning.

Not really.

Look her up on Wiki.

You’ll find that she basically she has no faith: a self-declared agnostic.

Mr. President and Governors of the Academy, Committee Members, fellows, my very noble and approved good masters [these last seven words were from Othello], my colleagues, my friends, my fellow-students. In the great wealth, the great firmament of your nation’s generosity, this particular choice may perhaps be found by future generations as a trifle eccentric, but the mere fact of it—the prodigal, pure, human kindness of it—must be seen as a beautiful star in that firmament which shines upon me at this moment, dazzling me a little, but filling me with warmth and the extraordinary elation, the euphoria that happens to so many of us at the first breath of the majestic glow of a new tomorrow.

From the top of this moment, in the solace, in the kindly emotion that is charging my soul and my heart at this moment, I thank you for this great gift which lends me such a very splendid part in this, your glorious occasion. Thank you.

My favorite part was when she dramatically fought back tears as she told a group of famous, wealthy, mostly white people, her fears of them being marginalized.

As the Jon Lovitz master thespian character would say, “ACTING!”

Those old women ACTors may have had golden globes at one point in their careers but now all they have are two old gray fried eggs hanging on a nail.

Dear Hollywood,

It’s time to wake up now. Get this! The only reason you exist is for my entertainment.
Some of you are beautiful. Some of you can deliver a line with such conviction that you bring tears to my eyes. Some of you
are so convincing that you scare the crap out of me. And others are so funny you can make me laugh uncontrollably.
But you all have one thing in common. You only exist and have a place in my world to entertain me. That’s it. Nothing else!
You make your living pretending to be someone else. You play dress-up like a 5-year-old. Your world is a make believe world.
It is not real. It doesn’t exist. You live for the camera while the rest of us live in the real world. Your entire existence depends
on my patronage. I crank the organ and you dance. Therefore, I don’t care where you stand on issues.
Honestly, your opinion means nothing to me. Just because you had a lead role in a movie about prostitution doesn’t mean
you know what it’s like to be a prostitute. Your views matter about as much to me as that of a someone living in Timbuktu.
Believe me or not, the hard truth is that you aren’t real. I leave the theater, turn off my TV or shut down my computer and
you cease to exist. Once I am done with you, I go back to the real world until I want you to entertain me again.
I don’t care that you think BP executives deserve the death penalty. I don’t care what you think about the environment.
I don’t care if you believe fracking is bad. I don’t care if you call for more gun control. I don’t care if you believe in catastrophic
human-induced global warming. And I could care less that you supported Hillary for President.
Get back into your bubble. I’ll let you know when I’m in the mood for something pretty or scary or funny.
And one other thing. What was with all this “I’ll leave the country if Donald Trump wins”? Don’t you realize how stupid
that made you sound?
What did you think my reaction was going to be? I’d better not vote for Trump or we’ll lose Whoopi Goldberg? Al Sharpton?
Amy Schumer?
Leave. I don’t care! And don’t let the door hit you in the ass on your way out.
Make me laugh. Make me cry. Even scare me. But realize this, the only words of yours that matter are scripted — just
like your pathetic little lives.
I may agree with some of you from time to time, but in the final analysis, it doesn’t matter. In my world, you exist solely
for my entertainment.
So, shut your pie hole and dance, monkey, dance!

Great post. Just one little place where my opinion differs a bit.

“And I could care less that you supported Hillary for President.”

In my view, supporting Rotten Cankles was a truly despicable thing to do, and I don’t want to see any images or be reminded in any way of any person who sank to that level.
