Wait until Saddam places a nuke in LA, then see if their "principled stand" has any depth or conviction.

[prov1813man]

NO, it's not. Jesse Helms is not an enemy of this country and it's constitution.

NO, it's not. Jesse Helms is not an enemy of this country and it's constitution.

Dissident artists, intellectuals, and professors

Artists? Anyone can call himself or herself an "artist." Howard Stern does.

Intellectual? I always notice that when these "intellectuals" encounter a fair, honest debate, they are first to attempt to silence the opposition and the first to scream "hate speech."

Professors? Yes---they have that one correct. American academia does not "celebrate diversity." Ninety-eight percent of university professors in are left-wing atheists---except for hard science, engineering, and medicine. Funny that. The capacity for the touchy-feely womyn-african-left-handed-queer-studies crowd to actual conjugate an original thought is under whelming

USA TODAY might work...I would assume it's not quite as expensive, although I don't know. Let me do a little digging...

What's the deal with the 5? I've seen it in a couple of threads. Thanks.

[thescourged1]

True enough John.....

Gotta appreciate the 'artistic' irony of such an event though.

Gloria Steinem..guess her name isn't in the Top 10 of WHO'S WHO for the run of this ad...tucked down in the S's.

[breakem]

I'm willing to tutor Marisa Tomei for a couple of years until she sees the error of her ways.

[fight_truth_decay]

hope its a high 5 !

[Delphinium]

I don't write much, but I am here. Thats a great idea, how do we chip in $$.I would like to draw more attention to these anti-americans all over the country so that people would think twice before watching their movies,etc. When we give them our money, and attention, we give them more power to influence others.

[weikel]

Well I like movies but the only one with one of the way out far leftist I reallly really like is the Shawshank Redemption.

[IowaHawk]

Much ado about nothing.

This ad is simply another death spasm from the lunatic Left; they stopped being provocative about 1978, and don't even merit 'annoying.' All this article does is confirm, for the umpteen millionth time since 9/11/01, their pathetic irrelevance. Thanks to this kind of self-inflicted political stupidity, the anti-war Left has become as important as the Skinhead movement.

Memo to Susan Sarandon: if you want to raise the credibility of "Not In Our Name," you might want to get some pointers from leaders of more important political organizations - like Lyndon LaRouche.

[Ajnin]

Oh yeah I'm with ya.

[Vermont Lt]

At this point, if ANYTHING happens in this country, these folks will say its because we talked about attacking Iraq and they had no option but to hit us first. We provoked them.

Why are these people important? What makes them think that what they have to say matters? Jeez....

[MEGoody]

Strip them all of their citizenship and deport them all. No one would miss them anyway.

[FourtySeven]

I'm sure the radical Muslims are getting a good chuckle over this. Pathetic, bleeding heart liberals. If they like the radical murderers so much, why don't they go and live over there?

Oh, that's right, because they know as well as we that if they did, there certainly wouldn't be any adoring masses, millions of dollars and cow-towing liberals to support their overinflated egos.

[Physicist]

What the hell is a "cultural ecologist"? Must be a "soft science" thing....

I don't know, but I imagine that the term should be categorized with terms like "armchair quarterback" or "backseat driver". I picture someone who spends his evenings attending movie premiers and political fundraisers, and his days penning books about environmental topics about which he has no firsthand experience.

As a Jew what these people tell me is that it is okay for militant arab culture to
slaughter my people and Jews are immoral to respond to this genocidal threat that
Arab-backed terrorism represents.

Looks like you've "cut to the chase" as they say in Hollywood.

Well, look at the bright side (I'm being ironic, so please...no flames), at least
we don't have to pay for tuition to an Ivy League school to hear this sort of thing.
