A galaxy of Hollywood stars, including Paul Newman, Reese Witherspoon, and Nancy Sinatra, have donated thousands of dollars to Senator Hillary Clinton's political campaign. Clinton, who is fundraising for the Democratic party, intends to use the money, which now stands at an impressive $17.1 million, for a presidential bid.
Newman and his wife Joanne Woodward both donated $2,000, while Witherspoon gave $1,000 alongside Edie Falco and Danny DeVito, according to the New York Post. Chat-show host Jerry Springer gave the most to the cause - $4,200 - while Sinatra gave a modest $200.
This just sucks, I like Reese Witherspoon. Add another star to my commie list. Pity.
Well if the intellectual giants are lining up behind her I might want to rethink things...
So Sad. Reese Witherspoon a Democrat. I did like her.
Oh well. Reese just lost me as a fan. Too bad.
Movie stars supporting a dim?
So? Why do I care who they support politically? If they have talent and people enjoy watching their movies, what does it matter?
This is news?
Here we go again.
$1000 to Hillary... not bad for a permit to work in Hollyweird.
Reese's daddy is GOP and she is a fine Southern lady.
I guess you have to be a dem to be on the 'a' list. Good thing I'm not a movie buff.
Reese.. why go there? Your better than those others.
Who'da thunk it?
Too bad Reese... even though you're a hot, little POA... you're now scum in my book!
I sort of agree with you. I think you gotta pay to play in Hollywood. I hope that is Reese's deal anyway.
Me neither, really. But it would be nice to find reason to respect Hollywood again. Looks like it will be awhile yet.
She has enough clout, why support those commies?
My wife isn't going to like hearing this about Reese. Her comment to 'Andrew Hennings' in 'Sweet Home Alabama' about him being a Democrat had me hopeful that she was not a dimmy democrat. Damn!
I'll send her an email. LOL
