Hollywood takes on White House

Weighty with angst and spectacle, Hollywood luminaries have taken on politics. They sign petitions, make statements and pen missives about America

[Let's Roll]

This conservative doesn't - because I refuse to support them, I haven't been to a movie, bought a CD or even rented a video for two years. Don't miss it at all. Now if NFL players start opening their yaps I could have a problem. ;)

Maybe the sniper would like to move to La-La land for a while.

Nah, the snipers know better than to mess with their promoters. Not going to happen.

PENN ABD SARANDON : DUMB ACTORS TALKING
Harrelson" White Men Can't Smoke Dope and make Sense.

Susan Sarandon's response was pretty soft. I think she's coming around...

[ladyinred]

This one doesn't either! If the movie, CD, television industry depended on me for support, they would be on skid row! :-)

[rintense]

What do Sean Penn, Jessica Lange, Woody Harrelson, and Babs have in common? (other than sheer stupidity)

None has had a successful hit movie in the past 10 years. Talk about irrelevant.

[f.Christian]

The reasons liberals make/go to movies...to have a 'life'---so they have something to do/know/talk about!

Service/comfort station for drones---idiots...free 'wash/wax/dry'---upgrades(popcorn/candy bars) too!

Pop vulture/culter---brainwashing...bs!

[Focault's Pendulum]

I may get down to watching Fox News and the color bars.

Pretty much where I am now.

Re your # 16

Oh where is your sense of humour?

These people are pathetic and as a result just too funny!!!

Can you imagine allowing them to be responsible for determinig combat tactics or war strategy as they wish? They seriously believe that employing or not employing the armed forces should be left to them....mostly uneducated show-people and entertainers.

These people love to call themselves "artists". Most are in need of psychiatric help and many are thankfully receiving it.

Cheer up. It is all great amusement.

[Dr. Eckleburg]

The fact that opposition to the war effort is now being fronted by these Hollywood numbskulls and not by D.C. democrats is proof that Bush is succeeding enormously.

Sarandon isn't softening; but perhaps she realizes the limb she and her buds have crawled out on is about to be sawed off.

[MarineDad]

If they feel that strongly about it, then certainly there wouldn't be any problem with getting a bunch of them to be human shield volunteers; that seems to be the ultimate peacepuke "statement" these days. Can somebody get a sign-up sheet going out there in BizarroLand?

[fight_truth_decay]

You are good..really good!!!

[GOPJ]

The silly Court Jesters -- Woody, Babs, Jessica, Sean -- think they're Heads of State. What fools.

[GOPJ]

Irrelevant, except to media folks. Have the lines between news and intensely juvenile ramblings of entertainment idiots been blurred again?

None has had a successful hit movie in the past 10 years. Talk about irrelevant.

Babbs thinks she has a good grasp of history, perhaps she should study up on when Ceasar was in charge of things. Back then actors were forbidden from voting precisely because of what she and these others are doing. Maybe we should concider that again!?

Actors whose careers are fading keep their names in the news by making controversial statements.
