Kidman condemns Hamas, Hezbollah

Ridley Scott has totally erased any goodwill he earned with "Gladiator" and "Black Hawk Down".

Making Saladin into some "noble statesman of yore" instead of the Butcher of Jerusalem is beyond the pale.

I'm in agreement...I'll not watch anything he's involved in now. What a jerkoff he is. These guys make lots of money...then these jerks show true colors....I've blacklisted him....

"This is an effort to stem the tide. Nothing more."

Well maybe for some mentioned in the article, but Jimmy Woods has been a supporter of the WOT since the getgo.

Maybe they realize Hollywood standards ain't exactly number 1 on the Islamic hit parade

	You bet they do--and what of it? by Ben Stein   snip ... Crafty 60 Minutes had studied the top slots in town. Their research showed that "only" about 60 percent of the most important positions in Hollywood were run by Jews. What did I think? I managed to disqualify myself by saying that while Hollywood was not really "run" by anyone (it's far too chaotic for that), if Jews were about 2.5 percent of the population and were about 60 percent of Hollywood, they might well be said to be extremely predominant in that sector. End of snippet

 

Notice the advertisement only complains about Hamas and Hezbollah... the more immediate threats to Israel. 

Saying you want to stop terrorism is kind of a no-brainer. Even our most ridiculous liberals like Michael Moore probably want to stop terrorism. Hell, I bet terrorists want to stop terrorism on some level. Of course they'd just prefer we all rolled over and died so they could end terrorism, but I digress here to much.

Point is... this is a good advertisement, but it's pointed directly at a special interest group of the left that may very well be eyeballing the GOP side of the ballot this year for President Bush's undying support of Israel.

And that's a good thing! Redheads freckle or burn.

But probably the SMARTEST thing she ever did!

[Mr. Silverback]

As many of you know, Patricia Heaton is a solid conservative, and a conservative Catholic. I can testify to this from personal experience.

She rocks. Cute, too.

[greccogirl]

Me too! We forget that not everyone in Hollywood is insane. Good for her, an A+ for courage!! And the rest too.

Regarding your comment - a broken clock is right twice a day. We need a culture where actors (and actresses) opinions are meaningless, because frankly, they are entertainers, not heros, not role models. What we have now is a cult of celebrity - and I don't mean that in a good way.

billionaire mogul, Haim Saban.

This may be the first thing Saban and I agree on. This guy is a major Clintonoid. Even worse -- he is the schlockmeister who gave America Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

"Dennis Hopper and Michael Douglas surprised me a lot. I also had no idea that Hurt was in our camp."

Douglas Suprised me but Hopper did not at all, he has been vocally Conservative for a good many years now. (Well Conservative for Hollywood anyhow.)

Sam Raimi is from Michigan and hangs with his Michigan chums, Bruce Campbell, Rob Tapert, Lucy Lawless (married to Tapert) and brother, Ted Raimi.

re: Bruce Campbell - just wanted to slip in a plug for the new DVD release of "The Adventures of Brisco County Junior" (1993). It's one of my TV favorites, and, sadly, another example of a terrific TV series killed by the networks before their time.

Is this the "New Hollywood"? Pro-Israel and anti-terrorism and therefore, more pro-Bush than anti-Bush than they would care to admit?

[Mr. Silverback]

Ridley Scott? His movie, 'Kingdom of Heaven' basically trashes Christians and makes the Muslims out to be noble.

I didn't see Kingdom of Heaven and don't intend to...but consider this: A lot of people are under the (not completely wrong) impression that the Muslims who lived in some of the locations where all three monotheistic religions mixed were a completely different breed of Muslim than the ones that follow Osama. When they make those people look good, they may be trying to say, "See, this is what it could be like if we all just tried to get along!"

Of course, that doesn't excuse Christian-bashing, or even Crusade-bashing, since the Crusades were a response to Muslim invasion.

[Aussie Dasher]

More pro-Lieberman, perhaps????

[Snapping Turtle]

I was surprised until I read the list of names...most are Republicans.

[Mr. Silverback]

Oh yeah, Howard "Bush let 9/11 happen" Dean and his crew are going to pick up millions of votes because Bruce Willis signed an ad supporting the right of Israel to exist. Whoa, we're really in for it!

Go get a freakin CAT scan. Your brain is screwed up.

[Mr. Silverback]

Awesome post Frank, thanks for the ping. Heard Gary Sinise on Eileen Byrne's show (WLS out of Chicago) and he allowed her to talk about CSI-NY for about ten seconds, then all he's talk about was pro-troop stuff. He's awesome.
