Hollywood's conservative underground

'Friends of Abe' group meets quietly

EXCLUSIVE:

A group of politically conservative and centrist Hollywood figures organized by actor Gary Sinise and others has been meeting quietly in restaurants and private homes, forming a loose-knit network of entertainers who share common beliefs like supporting U.S. troops and traditional American values.

That's Jesus.

At least he played Jesus in "The Passion of the Christ". Jim Caviezal

[Reagan Man]

Thought it was Christian Bale for a minute. Doesn’t look like Jim Caviezel.

Thanks

What is it about liberals that they aren't tolerant of the views of others?

What friggin hypocrisy.

[Tribune7]

Gary Sinise is cool.

That’s what I was thinking-they’re probably Republican like “Ah-nold” was a Republican, and just look how that has turned out.

I caught that too when watching “Family Jewels” once. I was so impressed that he would do that! Although I did know he supported the Pres. on going into Iraq. He is a somewhat liberal Dem., but a friendly one! He’s kind of like Ron Silver and Mayor Koch from New York, James Woods, etc..

I’m surprised that I hadn’t read more about him on FR before now! You’re the first one that had seen that, and now mentions that! Oh, Toby Keith is another musical star that supports the troops, and is Dem. Of course there is our Ted Nugent. I knew he was a conservative, and Gary Oldman, the British actor.

thanks for your positive post.

We’ve got a few whiners on this thread.

Great article and videos!

I may be wrong, but there seem to be fewer than a month ago and I’m hoping that the number dwindle.

Gary Sinise: great actor, great and generous human being, great American.

[Forward the Light Brigade]

There is hope. From a small acorn the mighty Oak doth grow.

[hoe_cake]

Again, another positive post. And I believe you are right, the number seems to have dwindled. Folks are slowly coming to their senses.

There are more conservatives in Hollyweird that you think. More “Hollywood liberals” would renounce their political label, except for one prblem: Blackmail by the the screen actors guild. They tell all actors that if they want to continue working in this town, they will openly and publically support the liberal agenda.

Gary Sinise is a great American!

As Obama the Onion is peeled, the odor of naivete and arrogance gets stronger.

James Wood, he is the one who witnessed the practice run of 911. He reported it to the airlines and I believe the FBI but nothing came of it, until after 911.

Shark was one of my favorite shows.

I miss that show.

Is it possible to bring back McCarthy???????????

Commies and their sympathizers have done a thorough job of demonizing his very name. That way, nobody has to endure the difficult task of discovering the truth: McCarthy Was Right
