On the surface Hollywood and the entertainment industry looks wholesome, traditional family values and all, but underneath the shimmering surface you get something else. The sordid sex menage et tois of Spears, Aqullera and Madona... That terrible trio coming up through the floor boards into your living room via TV suggest that lesbian kisses, gay rights, gay marriages, etc., are now common fare... are now acceptable to public taste. We have a host of Hollywood movies that contain lesbian scenes, eg., Hours, Monster, etc... we have gay TV shows (Will and Grace), we have the Madona, Spears & Aqullera lesbian smooching in front of the youngsters in public, we have the whole gay marriage issue in the US... and all at the same time! Yes, at the same time! Why? Because the liberal elites in Hollywood, the same ones who supported John Kerry for president, the same ones that gave an Oscar to Michael Moore to sink the noble, time-honoured documentary by making a trashy propaganda film to take out Bush, have an agenda... And that is to promote gay rights as part of the liberal creed. Personally, if I could have voted in the US (I'm Canadian), I'd vote for Bush... because Hollywood is arrogant and imperialistic in thinking that it can control you through its media, that it can repackage history, sell you an identity, control you through emotion and sex appeal. The down side of Hollywood and the entertainment industry is that it wants more than your money... it wants your soul!

One further note: I use to be a liberal artist but now I've heard so much hypocrisy, deceit and double talk from that camp that I can't stand it. The older I get the more I appreciate the simple virtues of honesty and courage. You may not agree with Bush or his policies but at least you know where he stands, you know that he has morals and is steadfast. The John Kerry camp sadly needed Hollywood's big production movie to prove that he is legit. It wanted to WOW you on the JFK, Ted Kennedy grooming Kerry connection. And for the most part the hip images of the liberals are deceptive: tie undone, a sports jacket causally flung over the shoulder, friendly, smiling, etc. It won't do any artists any good because these liberals are solely out for themselves. All you aspiring musicians and artists that expect great things to be done your country will stay in your dream drenched holes because a) these people are the elites out to be on top and... b) when they are on top they are going to make choices decided by their masters in Hollywood... But they will try to sell you images and dreams as only Hollywood can.

For any Brits who read this, I'll say I respect Blair as another man of integrity who made hard choices for the better of Britain and the world. It is odd but the idealism toward a better world should now come from conservative camps. The underbelly of Hollywood is essentially out to make money and push or dissolve the moral boundaries at any expense. These elites will resort to any means of deceit (the lies in Fahrenheit 9/11) and hypocrisy (Moore attacks Capitalism but is a multimillionaire) to get their way. It's just a smarmy and smug world if you ever have the misfortune to hear them lecture you on their lack of money for supporting the arts (and this brazen hypocrisy will be flung at you from some of the most posh and palatial surroundings). Yes, it's a sad day for the arts and the truth.

Thank God Bush won!

Great post! Yep, it is the culture thing. Pundits and post-
ers from the left feign fear that conservative theocrats are
'heaven' bent on forcing a religious agenda on the masses.
Reality reveals another story. The truth is a good number
of people, the religious and not-so, believe that our pop
culture is driving us to ruin and that the Democrats are
aligned with the drivers.

Party like it's '76!

(1776, that is!)

Spears supported Bush, I am pretty sure.
