I don't want to make a bigger deal of this than it is. I was greatful for all the links to surprisingly apt comments from Miller. I didn't mean to imply that your article was a harmful post, but just that we run the risk of playing into the hands of leftists by acting as if celebrities matter more than they do. We are small minority, but more influential than we might think. I am old enough to remember early 1994 when US healthcare was headed straight for socialism, a Republican House majority was unthinkable and the mere mention of the escapist liberatiran fantasy of privitizing Social Security was political suicide. Or back in the 80s when even Reagan didn't promise the USSR would fall before the end of the century. So, maybe, a future where celebrities do not matter so much might not be as impossible as we think.

Agreed, that this in not a big deal. I think we have merely stated how we see the situation.

We can dream.... :-)
