[Lopeover]

We must boycott the Oscars!

[SuziQ]

This petition did NOT call for a boycott! It simply states that these Celebrity pundits do NOT speak for most Americans and that they allowed to have undue influence over the National conversation about the War on Terror and the possible War against Iraq.

I totally agree that they're given way too much air time; the media are their biggest fans, after all! Nothing like being able to score an interview with a Hollywood celeb, and letting them spout their nonsense. It makes the interviewer feel good to be seen with said celebrity.

Hi everyone. I've read the post on FR for a long, long time, but this is the first time I've written. Hope I'm doing it right. Did anyone mention Pat Sajak for the "good" list? I hear he's got a new show on Fox News, too.

[Bonaparte]

You forgot Carl's son, Rob Reiner.

Support a sin tax on movie tickets to help ameliorate the damage that Hollywood and the entertainment industry has done to young minds. It goes along well with all the other nutty sin taxes that Hollywood Leftists are supporting.

In Britain stars trying to mobilise celebrity interest in publicising the anti-war moment are meeting reluctance. Among those actors who have put their heads above the parapet to call for peace are Mark Rylance, Julia Sawalha, Stephen Fry, Roger Allum and Saffron Burrows. The artist Sam Taylor-Wood and the writers Harold Pinter and Will Self have also taken part in anti-war events. From the world of film, directors Ken Loach, Antonia Bird, Terry Gilliam and Michael Winterbottom have spoken out, as have business figures Richard Branson and Anita Roddick. But stars of the music scene have proved wary - with the notable exceptions of Nitin Sawhney and Brian Eno - despite the fact that Damon Albarn from Blur and Robert Del Naja from Massive Attack are key players in the movement on this side of the Atlantic.

[Softballmom]

Somebody should take full page ads in one or two of the New York and LA newspapers saying something like this.... ATTENTION! ALL CELEBRITIES WHO HAVE NOT YET MADE PUBLIC THEIR OPINION ON THE WAR AND THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION!

DON'T!!!

We the people of this great country do not want to boycott your movies. We like seeing you on the big and small screen. What we will not tolerate, however, is your blithering, idiotic and uninformed comments concerning our President and the possibility of America defending herself against unprevoked attacks. We don't care what your politics are or how you vote, but you must stop using your vocations as a political soapbox. You're risking your careers and future income.

Sincerely -- All Americans who love their country and support their troops.

[BansheeBill]

Add David Cross, co-star of the "Mr. Show" on HBO (which I don't have so I have not seen the show), to the list.

He was on Carson Daly's Late Night TV show last night and Daly asked about comments of his disdain for Bush that he has included in the liner notes to his new "comedy" CD.
Cross elaborated how much he hated Bush and that he was positive he was "the worst President ever".

When Daly asked Cross what he had thought of Clinton, Cross replied "I didn't really think about him that much when he was President, but now, I love him more than ever."

[Fiddlstix]

Bump

[4.1O dana super trac pak]

Not Al Bundy!!!!! Nooooooooo....

[F16Fighter]

James Whitmore is on this list?? The same guy who's played Harry Truman, and starred in WWII era movies is a lib??

He must be about 90 years old by now -- maybe he's heavily medicated at some Hollywood nursing home and isn't quite all there...

[Man of the Right]

Most of these people haven't performed for decades. It's hard to find their body of work even in 99 cent bins.

[nmh]

Send em to Iraq. They're more comfortable with evil and defend it vigoriously. IN the meantime, nuke mecca. Such an evil religion. Nah, it's doesn't mean "peace"; it means "submit" or else.

[MigrantOkie]

Didn't Danny Glover do a bunch of flicks with Mel Gibson? What then?

[Crusher138]

My ten-year-old son has to do a report on a famous, living, Black American for Black History Month. His teacher, a black thirty something male who keeps "Famous Black American" posters up on the walls of his classroom year 'round, was encouraging them to pick entertainers. They are supposed to do the report as a series of "certificates" denoting the subjects achievements through their life.

First my son wanted to do Lawrence Fishburn (because of the Matrix). Then he wanted to Samuel L. Jackson (because of Star Wars). This morning he brought up Bill Cosby. I have suggested Collin Powell, Condi Rice, or Clarence Thomas. My son says that while Sec. Powell is mentioned (barely) on one of those "posters," none of others on my list have even been mentioned in class.

Talk about indoctrination...

[Made In The USA]

Anyone catch J. Garafolo try to defend her anti-war stance on Fox last night? It was on "The Big Show." It was hysterical watching her try to justify her position.

Aparently, her greatest credential is having a satellie dish to tune into current events. Yeah, I'm sure she's exploring views other than those espoused by the liberal media.

Watching objectively, you can see the liberal mind in action... It's all about feelings and assumptions that everyone can just get along. Truly, no one wants a war, but we live in a world of facts- Iraq is led by an evil ruler that sponsors terrorism and is trying to develop WMD. He must be stopped. Period.

[pray4liberty]

The usual suspects, eh?
