Does My Patriotism Offend You Hollywood? Call 1-800 LEAVE USA

Posted on 07/21/2004 8:19:41 PM PDT by SandRat

Call 1-800 LEAVE USA

I just wish to share something that was sent to me and too good to keep in my computer files - - it makes you recall that there was a time when you had no Streisands, Baldwins, Fondas, Dixie Chicks, Madonna, Sarandons, Robbins.



On The Flip Side of Hollywood

In contrast to the ideals, opinions and feelings of today's "Hollywonk" the real actors of yester-year loved the United States. They had both class and integrity. With the advent of World War many of our actors went to fight rather than stand and rant against this country we all love. They gave up their wealth, position and fame to become service men & women, many as simple "enlisted men." This page lists but a few, but from this group of only 18 men came over 70 medals in honor of their valor, spanning from Bronze Stars, Silver Stars, Distinguish Service Cross', Purple Hearts and one Congressional Medal of Honor. So remember; while the "Entertainers of 2003" have been in all of the news media lately (for it seems News Paper, Television and Radio has been more than ready to put them and their anti-American, anti-Bush message before the public) I would like to remind the people of what the entertainers of 1943 were doing, (60 years ago). Most of these brave men have since passed on.

Hey Hollywonks!

These are Real Hollywood Heroes


So how do you feel the real heroes of the silver screen acted when compared to the hollywonks today who spray out anti-American drivel as they bite the hand that feeds them? Can you imagine these stars of yester-year saying they hate our flag, making anti-war speeches, marching in anti-American parades and saying they hate our President? I thought not, neither did I!

If you enjoyed the story PING it on.

Audie Murphy is my hero...and he was SO humble. You can find out all kinds of stuff about him at http://www.audiemurphy.com - he was an amazing man.

Marines claim turning Audie down at the Recruiting station was their one big mistake.

I attended a lecture by James Doohan once. My memory may be faulty, but I thought he said something about being a member of the RCAF during big II.

Read, thoroughly enjoyed, and am mass e-mailing this one.
Perfect to share with friends and family.

*sigh* Though there are some in Hollywood these days who love our country, they don't get any mention in the news.
And I don't think any are cut from the same cloth as these fine men.

hehehehe.....I'd looooove to have one of those bumper stickers!

Hi StarCMC!!

I've been busier than a democRAT spin-meister these past few weeks! Looks like there won't be much of a respite for me for the next few, either....which is both a good thang....and a bad thang.....

Give my best to the gang in the Canteen as well as our TROOPS, please?

Semper Fi!

GREAT post! Thanks, SandRat! Yes, I remember when Hollywood was once mostly patriotic (not counting the commies among them).
