watch movie profits tumble IMO
Does anyone else feel a bit uncomfortable with calling the conservative victory "Red America".
Somehow it just doesn't sit right.
Can we also not begin to think about healing some divisions? And, being the party of adults, can we also not be the first to cool the rhetoric of division and start to think about how we can communicate to all Americans save a very slim minority of radicals?
"So this liberal on horseback goes into a bar..."
"Celebrity testimonials may help [sell] erectile-dysfunction products,"
MUHAHAHAHAHAHA
PRICELESSS...this and the ebay auctions for Bruce sprinsteens ego and Michael moore relevance
DOES IT GET ANY BETTER!!!
WHAT A DAY!!!!!!
I feel a little Schadenfreude coming on. Watching the 'beautiful people' snivel is fun.
:-)
Wasn't this a Dem ploy from 2000? I seem to recall that originally (and briefly) they were coloring Gore states red and Bush states blue, but apparently the media were afraid the "red" would carry the obvious connotations and switched them. Don't recall the details.
I use to feel it was a slight to assign 'red' to conservatives, since 'red' is the traditional color/name for communists. However, now I've changed my mind. Red is the traditional color of power and virility (consider the traditional sports car color). I can live with that!
Considering their homosexual inclination the blue color is a correct one.
Now is not the time to get soft. We won. We are winning. We can't let them up. Kick them while they're down. Step on their necks.
I got a suggestion for "America's artists".
If you're an actor, shut up and act.
If you're a singer, shut up and sing.
If your Michael Moore, just shut up.
I thought purple was the gay color.
Among the most shrill in past months: Jennifer Aniston, the "Friends" actress who called Mr. Bush "a [expletive] idiot." Actor Leonardo DiCaprio, who stumped for Mr. Kerry in Oregon and Florida and appeared in an ad for the Democrat on the Internet. Singer John Mellencamp, who described Mr. Bush as "a cheap thug."
Tells you a lot about these elitists. I saw Joe Piscopo on FOX news one night and even though he backed Kerry he was very upset with the way his fellow actors were carrying on. When you see statements like the above you figure if they didn't live a life of luxury with too much to lose they'd probably be out slashing tires on cars, stealing Bush signs and anything else to show them be the cheap thug they say Bush is.
I feel so sorry for our Esteemed Liberal Elite. </ sarcasm>
"...I'm not sure if Kerry wasn't just a surrogate for anti-Bush feelings."
Good guess, brainiac. Now go snort some more coke, go back to making your garbage and being a cheerleader for sdodomy, and leave the rest of us real Americans alone.
Warped Hollyweirdos are swigging down gallons of purple kool-aid, popping mega-doses of Prozac, and repeating the Follywood mantra:
FOLLYWOOD'S TEN COMMANDMENTS
Christians are evil.
Woman are to be valued for their cleavage.
The traditional family is archaic, constricting, with no redeeming value.
We make films that preach morality. Our morality.
Parents that try to guide their children's choices are restrictive. Kids need to be "free".
Extreme movie violence and explicit sex for the thrill of it is good because it is profitable.
We firmly believe 24/7 of the sexually salacious and violent TV, movies and music we produce are not harming kids and the culture.
OTOH, we also believe----with the religious fervor of Tammy Faye Baker---- that a single 15-sec commercial will compel tens of millions of Americans into thousands of stores to buy billions of dollars worth of soap, soup, breakfast cereal and cars.
Victimization is our core belief by which we find others responsible for our own personal failures, then expect taxpayers, deep pocketed individuals, or the courts to bail us out.
It "feels good" being in the throes of "victimization" and either A) causing victims, B) concocting victims, C) playing victim, D) commiserating over victims, or E) creating another class of victims to bleed over.
Already been tried. Think Ted Kennedy education bill. To paraphrase Vince Lombardi, to liberals power isn't everything, it's the only thing. They will trash-talk and disagree with everything and anything so long as they are out of power. Quite simply, they are incapable of graciousness, of being the loyal opposition, of playing fair, or being honest and honorable. Anybody who witnessed the feminists roll over for Clinton's shenanigans knows this.
" ... apparently the media were afraid the "red" would carry the obvious connotations and switched [Democrats to blue]."
My memory is that in 1980 when Reagan swept the country, all his states were shown as blue. This election feels mighty like 1980 otherwise ... thank God.
LOL! I agree!
