President Barack Obama’s latest fundraising report resembles an A-list of Hollywood stars, with donations from some of the top celebrities in the entertainment industry.
Among the more than 550,000 donors to the president’s 2012 reelection bid were big-name movie stars including actors George Clooney, Michael Douglas, Sharon Stone, Michael Keaton, Tom Hanks and his wife Rita Wilson. Filmmaker Steven Spielberg and his wife, actress Kate Capshaw, also gave to the 2012 campaign, according to the latest Federal Election Commission report. Jennifer Garner and Gwyneth Paltrow both contributed under their married names —Affleck and Martin, respectively.

Has anyone else noticed that all the celebs mentioned in this article really haven’t been relevant since the turn of the century?
Just sayin’..............
I hear Hanks and Roberts are bombing at the theater...maybe this is why.
I hope so.

Boy, talk about the "A-listers"......
Those people need to pay more income taxes. About time they shared in the sacrifice.
These people have no soul. They sold them long ago.
These idiots just don’t get it.
If they were smart at all, they would realize that opening up their raps alienates half the country and impacts their financials directly.
Hey Tom, how’s that last movie of yours doin’? I thought so.
BTW, anyone else notice that Hanks is rapidly becoming the bloated twin of algore?
they know better. they just don’t have the courage it takes to speak out. Sad little phony critters. Can’t do anything but read lines off a piece of paper. Maybe they can copy their buddie’s policy of using a teleprompter. They are afraid to stand up for their beliefs and so they cave as it’s the popular thing to do. I don’t let the rest of hollywood off the hook either because if they are NOT for obama then they have a right to stand and be counted as well. But...they won’t. They all want their jobs but to hell with the ones who are unemployed.
Any of Hollywood’s plethora of prominent Jews gives to Obama in light of how he has acted towards Israel is no better than a kapo or Mischling Nazis..
simply incredible...
their love of social liberalism trumps anything...even box office draw
the other jackasses...screw them...i avoid their dreck when I can
Does anyone really think the Warners, Mayer, Goldwyn, Zanucks etc woulda acted like this?
Hell they loved America...this country made them rich beyond their dreams and they remembered the crap they left behind in Eastern Europe or Germany
this new bunch need a psychosis term coined after them
every time I see Speiberg’s snarky mug after how good America has been to him and the loyalty he has from all Americans ...even those he despises...I’d like to slap him...what a disapppointment...his buddy Lucas too...both wankers
and Tom Hanks...the new Jimmy Stewart?
are u kidding...that is crazy...Stewart was a man who loved his country
Hanks is just a flunkie airhead giving what he thinks is the right answer amongst the In-Crowd out there
screw em...I’ll glean for decent stuff and watch old movies..they make it easy...it’s mostly crap now anyhow and so PC and homolovely anyhow
Hollywood is the greatest example of “Groupthink.”
One of my favorite TV series was Anderson's "StarGate: SG-1", and one of the things I admired about it was the respectful treatment and perspective they presented of our military.
However, hypocrisy ruled even there. They made massive use of guns in their stories, and in interviews some cast members even noted how they loved getting to play with all that cool firepower. Nonetheless, in a couple of episodes the writers went out of their way to have SG-1 characters show contempt and disdain for "civilians" owning and using firearms.
Anderson has always been a rabid anti-gun advocate, as has Mark Harmon of NCIS. The irony and hypocrisy in the roles they've played which have made them rich is thick enough to cut with a knife.
F em...and why I boycott anything they are involved in on stage, screen, and other media.
Time to tax Hollywood’s insane windfall profits. See how many turn conservative then.
I guess I won’t be seeing any of their movies. Or Spielberg’s, or Moore’s, or Stone’s.
What should we expect from people who don’t live in the real world?
Former Hollywood stars open wallets open their mouths or spread their cheeks for Obama (Tom Hanks, George Clooney, Will Ferrell...)
What is sad is that cute little Seraphina and Violet Affleck, amobgst other unfortunate Hollywood offspring, don’t stand a chance to be able to think for themselves later in life... brainwashed from birth, just like the Scientology pack, Suri Cruise and Ben and Ella Blue Travolta.
I don’t go to movies starring Libs. End of story. Friends and family think I am being extreme, ie “What does it matter?” Oh but that everyone who cares about our country’s future and who is NOT a raging, big mouthed Lib would boycott these B list actors and hit ‘em where it hurts, in their pocketbooks.
And I don’t care how great these people are as actors or how wonderfully the movies they are in turn out to be, I do not go to the flicker box nor will I rent those movies..not one cent of my hard earned pennies will go to their lavish elite lifestyle.
