I am trying to compile a list of actors,actresses,producers, etc. who are intent on bashing conservatives and their values while they themselves say one thing and do the other. I want to make the list of names available so I can circulate them to others who may wish to boycott their movies as a way to protest. Many in Hollywood are quick to criticize conservatives over various issues like gun control, the military, hate crimes, environmental lies and etc, but they themselves profit from acting in movies that depict exactly what they say they are opposed to.
I wish to inform others who these people are and one way to combat their public exposure is to let others decide whether to continue to support their artistic works or boycott them. Feel free to list names of those who may fit this criteria.

You'd do better just to assume they are all liberals and then make a list of the ones who are not; the list will be much shorter.

It would be a far easier task to identify those in Hollywood who are friendly to conservative causes and to encourage people to see their films. Sadly, I assure you that the list will be quite short.

Only celebs that I can think of right now that are conservitive are: Clint Eastwood, Arnold Shwartzenager, Kurt Russel, and Charlton Heston.

I think we can safely add Mel Gibson to the list as well.

Don't forget, we need a profile of them too. How many SUV's do they have, how many houses, servants, square footage, boats, planes, and Body guards with guns, etc.
Much of their so called chairty work is for exposure, not that they give a damn about the people.
Number of marriages, kids from various sources.

Bruce Willis, Goldie Hawn, Sylvester Stallone.

I don't think Mel is conservative but I can't really remember why. I think I've seen him at fundraisers for Clinton. He certainly has played some conservative roles in some wonderful films.

When the list is put together, if you want a real laugh, also list how many of them have played military people in films? You will be suprised. Woody Harrelson...Harrison Ford; Concietious Objector Deferrment during Vietnam, John Travolta; Scientologist, Alec Baldwin; Well enough said, Tom Cruise and on and on.
The hollywood types love to play soldier and hero, but they never understand what or who real heroes are.

If I'm not mistaken, Mel used to post on this sight.

Bo Derek, Tom Selleck, Ben Stein...Dennis Miller looks like he may be crossing over.
To: FastNBulbous
If Dennis Miller crosses over he's gonna have to eat some major crow! He made his career casting aspersions our way! He got many a laugh at the expense of traditional values. He is a pointy headed sniffer of other people's bottoms, this so-called foosball commentator!
To: federalisthokie
There's also Tom Seleck and Bo Derek.
To: federalisthokie
Brian Dennehey, James Woods, Gary Oldman....

I don't know where Miller stands on other issues, but check
this out from Brent Bozell's Media Research Center:
Actor/comedian Dennis Miller expressed on Tuesdays Tonight Show the exact opposite views as those espoused by Ed Asner (see item #3 above).
Reciting some of the commentary/jokes hes told on his HBO show, Dennis Miller Live, the comedian who has been doing color commentary on ABCs Monday Night Football, put the security and safety of Americans ahead of the civil rights concerns of liberals. Some of the politically-charged humorous observations he recounted on the June 18 Tonight Show with Jay Leno:
--"Of course we have to profile people. We live in some weird time now where were all trying to convince each other that we shouldnt profile people. When 19 out of 20 people are from a certain country, and they blow up the two biggest buildings in your country, if you dont start looking at people who are visiting here from that country, youre not being open-minded. Youre being dead. Okay?"
--"We have got to get it together and understand that this country, people say its not the American way to infringe on civil liberties. Well its not the American way to rollover for punks either. Were got to start kicking ass on these people because they dont care about us. They live for one reason and one reason alone and that is to kill you and I. Theres no half way in the al Qaeda. Theres no al-Kindas, okay. These people just care about our demise."
--"And you know something, the American Civil Liberties Union, when they come out and say you never profile anybody who gets on an airplane. I say we create a new airline, called the ACLA, the American Civil Liberties Airline where you dont check anybody, you dont ask any questions, and let those morons fly on that one, okay? The rest of us want to be protected."
--"Guantanamo Bay, are these people being treated fairly? Lets be serious folks. Guantanamo Bay is about as far as our Western sensibilities will allow us to descend as far as putting a prison together. No, you know, its no joy ride, but, you know, that being said, if you put the Guantanamo Bay terrorist prison outside of Kabul it would be their Epcot."
--"I dont even understand why weve taken nuclear weapons off the table. I mean we treat them like our mothers good china. We never use them. I think youve got to pick a day where theres no wind, in a desolate part of the Earth, just blow off a bomb just to let them know were sitting on a nice hold card, okay?"
Its not everyday you hear anyone with the guts to dare suggest using a nuclear weapon.
