Wow! They censored Sally Field! (Sally Field anti-war Emmy acceptance speech cut off)
L. A. Times ^ | September 16, 2007 | Tom O'Neil

"If mothers ruled the world, there wouldn't be any god -" Emmy winner Sally Field said before the Emmycast cut her off her sound and pointed the camera away from the stage so viewers would be distracted. Cut off were the words "g-d d--ned wars in the first place."

"This belongs to all the mothers of the world - may they be seen and valued," she added when she won best actress in a drama series for her work as matriarch Nora Walker on "Brothers & Sisters."

....."dead-end relationship with Burt Reynolds.".....

I wonder if they had some abortions?

For the sake of the children, of course.

Lib women have killed more children than all male dictators combined.

Guess she learned nothing play acting at being a nun. Better to keep your mouth shut than to open it and prove you are cheap hollywood trash.

Sally Field Reacts To Censored Speech At Emmys

-snip-

Backstage, Field told reporters that she wanted to recognize mothers who wait for their sons to come home from war. She added, however, that she “didn’t have a political agenda.”

Told that she had been bleeped, Field responded: “Oh well. I’ve been there before. Well, good. I don’t care. I have no comment other than, oh well. I said what I wanted to say. I wanted to pay homage to the mothers of the world, and let their work be seen and valued.”

Pressed for more comment, she responded: “I think probably shouldn’t have said the God in front of the ... I would have liked to have said more bleeped-out words.”

Ed and Sally must have doctorates in international relations etc.

Otherwise, they need to STFU!

"If mothers ruled the world, there wouldn't be any god d--ned wars in the first place."

Of course. Without opposition to despotism and fascism, mothers (and everyone else) would all be slaves.

This is exactly why mothers should never rule the world.

Mothers do rule the western world...some of us can acknowledge that we have been given the highest position possible to any human without having to suffer any of the consequences.

Sally is a maroon if she cannot see what we have and the choices that are at her disposal. If she doesn't like it here she should move to Afghanistan for a while.

What these people want is a complete feminine rule and they will not stop until they harness it upon us all.

The pendulum never seems to want to stop in the middle.

Why do moonbat lefties always act like the are being drafted? And why do they have potty mouths like 15 year olds.

It amazes me the amount of needless profanity that Hollywood stars feel they must use to impress and influence other Hollywood stars and young children.

I did not watch the profanity fest because I knew before hand what these idiots would do.

Actors and actresses maybe but good humans, debatable.

I am truly disappointed in Sally.

As for others you knew it was a bad night when they gave Algore an award for fake but accurate television.

These people really are bores.

Because they are stuck in the 60’s and never grew up.

Sally has been out in left field for so long that she’s become a Flying Joke.

If the Govt fined Hollywierd elitists that much just for pure idiocy, the national debt would be paid off in no time.

Maybe a few letters to Bonevil will make them take a second look at their star loud mouth.

I just viewed the unedited version. No big deal. It’s not like Jane Fonda going to North Vietnam for a photo op on an anti-aircraft gun.

I was actually thinking of buying the DVD of the "Flying Nun" series - until she shot off her mouth like this.
