Just how much do many Hollywood liberals hate conservatives?

In an interview with Playboy, Ben Affleck said, "When I watch a guy [on film] I know is a big Republican, part of me thinks, I probably wouldn’t like this person if I met him":

PLAYBOY: You developed a political profile campaigning for presidential candidates Al Gore, John Kerry and Barack Obama. How did that come about?

AFFLECK: I grew up in a house with a mother who was a teacher and a Freedom Rider—very left-wing Democrats living in a heterogeneous working-class neighborhood. I picked up a lot of those values there, and I brought them with me when I showed up in Hollywood. In 2000 the Gore campaign said, “Hey, would you

Let me put it this way, libertarian is not conservative.

Participating in leftwing TV shows and movies means you are not a conservative.

[Sarah Barracuda]

And thats why I wont watch any movies this ass hat is in

doubtful they are actually conservative

I can think of one who was.

Ben Aflak: I’m narrow-minded and I love it!

[MrB]

I was going to say we’d never had a clinical moron for president either... but that wouldn’t be correct.

[God luvs America]

Well, I guess that would eliminate Ted Nugent

[Mastador1]

Well I guess it’s fair, when I watch a supposed actor on film I know is big democrat moron, I think two things.
1. I’m glad I did not pay to see this and put my money in their pockets.
2. I know I would not like this person if I met them.

What total douches these liberal so called actors are, they think that because the have become celebrities to some, that their vapid opinions have value.

Ping!

And this is the guy chosen to play an iconic, and one of the more Conservative, superheroes (Batman).

But then I remember that Alex Baldwin got to play both Jack Ryan AND Jimmy Doolittle ...

[Lakeshark]

Reagan once quipped something like this:

"One in four Republicans in Hollywood become President."

[Sir Napsalot]

Brainlessness on full display.

Sometimes you just have to make it so obvious as to remove all doubts.

[who knows what evil?]

Nothing like p*ssing on half of your movie audience, Zippy...

[mountn man]

I'll meet your

And raise you

Is that the goose in the insurance articles?

[Colonel_Flagg]

Or...

[CodeToad]

He “picked up” those liberal ideas because they are not natural and people need brainwashing to support them. That’s why liberals are emotional types: Logic, or any level of thought, concludes liberalism is just plain stupid. Liberalism is outright theft.
