“President Bush was in the wrong place at the wrong time, I don”t know how anyone could have handled this situation… I dont give a f**k who’s in office, Bush or whoever, there is no simple solution to this problem… I’m not one of those who blames Bush for everything. This s**t between Christians and Muslims goes back to the Crusades, doesn’t it.”

Anyone want to bet Rourke’s Hollywood awards will end at the Golden Globes?

This makes Sean Penn the easy front runner for the Oscar for his portrayal of a Gay Rights activist and city politician. A much more Hollywood friendly bet.

I guess the 6,838,107 people who voted for Prop 8 in a democratically held vote are bigots and full of hate.

Neil Patrick Harris concludes the video with explaining that legalizing Gay Marriage will pull us out of a recession because of the all the money that would be generated from the weddings.

I guess Jack Black’s push to legalize marijuana would also help the economy and reduce the deficit through additional sales tax collection.

Over an over Celebrities use their Celebrity to get their message out of what they feel the true Christian political agenda is.

Listen to Ed Young, the pastor at Fellowship Church, as he does a great job of explaining how the Bible teaches Christians to shape their political views.

Do you think the passing of Prop 8 was a result of Christians and Non-Christians hating Gays, or do you think it passed for some other reason?

Share your thoughts below.

It seems the Screen Actors Guild is a couple steps closer to another strike that could cost Los Angeles billions of dollars and jobs.

Missed royalties from increasing demand of DVD’s and Internet sales from services like iTunes are the reason for the dispute. It seems the Actors want their cut of these royalties earned from their hard work and success. Seems fair to me.

They are so upset about this unfair treatment of not being able to keep what they feel is rightfully owed to them they might end up going on strike. I imagine if no agreement could be met they might even look to take their work elsewhere which might cause other people in the industry to lose their jobs.

What happened to the Hollywood backing of wanting to “Spread the Wealth Around”?

Hmmm… Maybe Joe the Plumber had some valid concerns with the proposed tax structure of President-Elect Obama.

After all, the people who make DVD’s and the folks over at Apple are entitled to some of their money. Aren’t they?

What about the people who watch and buy the movies? Shouldn’t we get some of that money? Those Hollywood actors are making “too much” money anyway, and need to spread some of that money to me, right?

Maybe if hard working people, who own small businesses and create jobs for other people, are not able to keep their fair share of their earnings they too will go on “strike”. Their strike would not involve signs and picket lines, but would mean layoffs and in some cases business owners taking their company overseas.

What do you think? Do you see a parallel here?

“With Barrak Obama, we have a rare opportunity to elect an extraordinary president “

I would have never thought little Opie Cunningham and the Fonz would be for big government, higher taxes, a prolonged recession, and a weaker millitary.

In a previous post, Hollywood doesn’t want people to vote, I comment on why I feel Hollywood talks down to people to get them to vote.  Instead of challenging people to educate themselves on the policies to form their own opinion, the left just wants people to register.

Why is this? Could it be that more votes for liberal candidates are based on factors other than the issues  This is why I feel liberal Hollywood puts out “non-partisan” videos of telling people to register to vote.

Do the people who are up on the issues and able to form their own opinion need some Celebrity to tell them why it is important to vote?

Watch these videos and form your own opinion of why Hollywood tells people why it is important to register to vote.

Video #1 – Obama supporters are asked about his policies (actually McCain’s policies)

Video #2 – ACORN Voter Registration Fraud

A new video featuring Leonardo DiCaprio, Halle Berry, Jennifer Aniston, Tobey Maguire, Eva Longoria, and other Hollywood actors has been released on Youtube telling people why they should not vote.

After watching the video, it seems Hollywood does want people to vote after all.  Imagine that.  Celebolitics at its finest. Although, they don’t say who you should vote for, is there anyone in the world that doesn’t know who they want you to vote for?

They explain …

“don’t vote unless you care about health care”

“if you think that everybody deserves to be taken care of when their sick, then maybe you should vote”

“if you care about gun control, woman’s rights, civil rights, rising gas prices, social security, the war, then you should vote”

“you can vote if you care about welfare, minimum wage, the economy, gay rights, abortion rights, education, the first amendment, the second amendment, all the amendments, or your future, or the world, or our country, everything”

Thank you Hollywood stars.  Before hearing Halle Berry to say, “D…D… Does that matter to you? Because if it does, then maybe you ought to vote.” I didn’t realize why it was important to vote.  Thank you Halle for making it so clear.

I appreciate Ellen DeGeneres tell me “you know you have to register to vote, you know that, right?”.  Thank you Ellen for educating me on what I have to do prior to voting.

Did anyone else feel like they were being talked to like a first grader?  It was like I didn’t know anything and these Hollywood stars, who everyone look up to and idolize, are here to take care of the poor, dumb ‘regular folks’.

The tone of the video ties into the typical liberal mentality of you are not smart enough to understand on your own.  You are poor, helpless and need to have someone take care of you.  There is no need to assume personal responsibility.

I found it interesting that they never asked people to educate themselves on the issues.  There was no mention of making your vote worth something by not just voting just to vote, but to vote for people who share your core values.

The Hollywood stars in the video want you to vote because the people who vote because someone in Hollywood told them to vote will probably blindly vote for Obama.  Obama after all is a Hollywood Celebrity.

This video is so transparent it should end in “I’m Barack Obama, and I approve this message.”

Other actors featured in the video include Ellen DeGeneres, Forest Whitaker, Dustin Hoffman, Demi Moore, Sarah Silverman, Jonah Hill, Ashton Kutcher, Courteney Cox, Laura Linney, Natalie Portman, Jamie Foxx, Usher, Kyra Sedgwick and will.i.am.

Your turn… What are your thoughts of the video?  Did you feel like you were being talked down to by the Hollywood stars in the video?

Lindsay Lohan decided to throw her had into the Celebolitics world by posting her views on Sarah Palin on her MySpace Blog.

She writes about Palin’s views on gay’s, “birth control” (a.k.a. abortion in Lohan’s world), sex before marriage, and children out of wedlock.

Lohan writes:

“I feel it’s necessary for me to clarify that I am not against Sarah Palin as a mother or woman.”

I’m glad Lindsay clarified that she is not against mother’s and women. I know there is a big movement out there that is against mother’s and women. We can officially put Lindsay in the camp that is pro-mother’s and pro-women.

Lohan continues to provide advise to Gov. Palin:

“Don’t pose for anymore tabloid covers, you’re not a celebrity, you’re running for office to represent our, your, my COUNTRY!”

Now, I’ve never been on the cover of a tabloid magazine, but I would guess many of the photos included in these magazines are not at the request of the person photographed (unless you are a “celebrity”). I doubt Gov. Sarah Palin called up the people at US Weekly to schedule a photo shoot. Gov. Palin doesn’t need the trash magazines to keep her in the spotlight like many of Lohan’s Hollywood neighbors.

“Women have come a long way in the fight to have the choice over what we do with our bodies… And its frightening to see that a woman in 2008 would negate all of that.”

Is Lindsay making a comment about a woman’s ability to choose to kill an unborn baby? If that is the case, then I agree that Women have come a long way. A long, twisted and sick way to make it legal for Women to make the choice over the fate of an unborn baby. Hopefully, people like Gov. Palin will help turn us around on this twisted path we have taken.

The second part of this comment is another glimpse into why liberals are so afraid of a Pro-Life, Conservative Woman. The traditional feminist movement that Lohan clearly subscribes to is seriously threatened with Gov. Palins rapid rise and huge popularity with both conservatives and independents.

I find it ironic that Lohan is afraid of what Gov. Palin might do for the Women’s movement in this country. This coming from someone who has had multiple visits to rehab, arrested for possession of cocaine, and is quoted to have said, “It is clear to me that my life has become completely unmanageable because I am addicted to alcohol and drugs”.

I wish Ms. Lohan the best and hope she is able to get her life back on track. Maybe she should look at some of her views and see if they are to blame for her situation.

Matt Damon talks about his fear of Sarah Palin in a recent CBS interview (watch below). Damon fears her because he “doesn’t know anything about her”. Here is a thought… educate yourself and seek out the truth about Palin.

Here are a few of my own thoughts to some of Damon’s comments:

“I don’t know if in 8 weeks I am going to know anything about her.”

How long does it take to get to know someone? In less than 2 weeks, the media has dug up everything they possibly can. (and even made up some things along the way) How much did you know about Joe Biden before Obama picked him to be his running mate? How much do you know about Obama for that matter?

“She was governor of Alaska for less than two years. I don’t understand, I think the pick was done for political purposes.”

Obama has been a U.S. Senator for less than three years, and has campaigned for one of those years. So, if my first grade math serves me correct, that means Palin has two more years of executive experience than both Obama and Biden have combined.

I agree that McCain’s pick of Palin was partially politically driven. I would also venture to guess the reason was Obama did NOT pick Hilary was for personal reasons. Which is worse?

Hilary received 18 million votes and Obama didn’t even consider her for the number two spot on the ticket. McCain’s pick of Palin is turning out to be one of the best political decisions of his career.

“… a one in three chance, if not more, McCain won’t survive his first term.”

I think Matt has been reading too many left-wing blogs.

“It’s a terrifying possibility” (a Palin Presidency)

This is exactly what the liberals fear the most. A qualified, competent, NRA member, Christian, pro-life, Republican leader who just happens to also be a woman. The Democrats are “supposed” to be the one’s to shatter the glass ceiling for Women. It was Hillary (actually Geraldine Ferraro before her) who put the 18 million cracks in this ceiling, but Palin is close to officially do the shattering.

The “old” feminist movement doesn’t know what to do because there is a new feminist movement happening that is being led by an Elephant not a Donkey.

“I need to know if she really thinks dinosaurs were here 4000 years ago.

For someone who is in the celebrity spotlight, I would have thought Matt would have learned not to believe everything he reads. This rumor has been refuted.

See for yourself how many in Hollywood feel about the big bad hockey mom, Sarah Palin.

Voice your opinion. Do you agree with Matt Damon or do you feel Sarah Palin is not as scary as Hollywood wants you to think she is?

George Clooney on Liberalism vs. Conservatism.

“It’s quite amazing that ‘liberal’ nowadays has become a swear word as in the history of our country it always meant to be on the side of justice. It started with the witchhunt in Salem, the conservatives’ point of view was: ‘Burn them at the stake’, and the liberals’ point of view was: ‘There are no witches.’

And that’s how it continued with the civil rights movement and womens suffrage. The liberals were always right in the end.”
