I just think FReepers need to focus on something other than the politics of the Hollywood set. Granted, there are some actors and actresses that I make a point to avoid, such as Alec Baldwin or Julia Roberts. But I can respect liberals such as Spielberg and Hanks who keep their politics to themselves instead of making bug-eyed hateful statements everyday about Bush.

I was agreeing with what you were saying.

And you're right about Tom Hanks, too. He supported Clinton's re-election in '96, but after the Lewinsky scandal broke, he publicly said (paraphrase), "I wish I never gave Clinton money." Since then, Hanks has been pretty mum about his politics. As much as he admirers the WWII generation, I think he also quietly supports our efforts in the War On Terror. As far as Hollywood liberals go, he's a class act.
