Thread: Patriots in Hollywood

    Default Patriots in Hollywood

    Sometimes they seem to be few and far between, but they are there...

    Bruce Willis does his part for troops
    Actor tried to join military, but told he was too old

    I love rumor and RV prediction dates. I especially like the whooshing sound they make as they go flying by.

    So nice to read about men like this. I am (unfortunately) surrounded by men who dislike our government and country and have no sense of service. I really appreciate men like Bruce Willis.

    Default Interesting article on republicans in Hollywood..

    http://www.opinionjournal.com/extra/?id=110005377

    "Where did the notion of compulsory leftist party registration in Hollywood come from, anyway? The first theory is that it's the aftereffect of the blacklisting era that has cast conservatives in the role of industry enemy, a tradition carried on by those not even conceived yet in the 1950s. The more likely answer is simple: Liberalism is akin to a long-running Hollywood fad. Personal accountability can be a foreign concept when you have a publicist to get you out of any jam. Taxes are easier to swallow when you bring in $10 million a film. Marxism sounds vaguely groovy and compassionate when you live in the Hollywood Hills, as opposed to under any of the regimes responsible for between 85 million and 100 million deaths in the last century. Celebs like to see it as a heightened global consciousness--excluding global realities like, say, terrorism--and make their scheduled appearances for the television cameras on Skid Row, dishing out turkey and green beans for the homeless."

    But you never see any off them taking their money and building high rises or homes in those areas for the homeless. Thats because the raise money from middle class families and others that may not be able to afford that donation and put it in a company fund to pay people lots of money to distribute the money which realy just keeps flowing in and out of that company. Makes sense don't it......



    Hey did you see that? That squirrel just gave me the finger!!!!

  5. Default Bruce Willis at it again...in a positive way.

    Gotta love this guy...

    ANGERED by negative portrayals of the conflict in Iraq, Bruce Willis, the Hollywood star, is to make a pro-war film in which American soldiers will be depicted as brave fighters for freedom and democracy.

    http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article...2675%2C00.html

    Willis said it would be wrong for Americans to give up on Iraq just as progress is being made. “The Iraqi people want to live in a world where they can move from their homes to the market and not have to fear being killed,” he said. “I mean, doesn’t everybody want that?”
