Some Hollywood Stars' Thoughts on Palin

I never knew that I could agree more with people that have so much money, influence, and talent.

***************************************************************************************
***************************************************************************************

"sarah p -- elisabeth h

= identical cousins

women who hunt in high heels gives one pause."

-- Rosie O'Donnell, on her blog, taking a dig at Elisabeth Hasselbeck, with whom she worked on "The View"

************************************************************************************

"I don’t think I would want her running the country.... I’m not going to vote for her because she’s a woman.

"We disagree on a lot of issues, and that’s why I support Obama and Biden.”

-- Eva Longoria on TV's "Extra"

**************************************************************************************

"This woman hates women.…She is not a feminist. She is not the woman that's going to come behind Hillary Clinton and do anything that Hillary Clinton would've been capable of.... I can't imagine overturning Roe vs. Wade. She's not of this time. The woman terrifies me."

-- Pink to PopEater

****************************************************************************************

"As someone who has spent over 40 years advocating on behalf of women both politically and philanthropically, as someone who was a strong supporter of Hillary Clinton and as someone who cares deeply about the health and welfare of all women, hear me Senator McCain: This calculated, cynical ploy to pull away a small percentage of Hillary's women voters from Barack Obama will not work. We are not that stupid!”

-- Barbara Streisand, on her blog

***************************************************************************************

I think there’s a really good chance that Sarah Palin could be president, and I think that’s a really scary thing, 'cause I don’t know anything about her -- I don’t think in eight weeks I’m going to know anything about her. I know that she was a mayor of a really, really small town and she’s the governor for Alaska for less than two years. I just don’t understand. I think the pick was made for political purposes.... Do the actuary tables and there’s a 1 out of 3 chance, if not more, that McCain doesn’t survive his first term and it’ll be President Palin…. It’s like a really bad Disney movie. The hockey mom, you know, ‘Oh, I’m just a hockey mom’… and she’s facing down President Putin …. It’s totally absurd …. It’s a really terrifying possibility.”

-- Matt Damon, Associated Press

************************************************************************************

"At first I thought Sarah Palin was some kind of Republican pandering -- a misguided attempt to woo Hillary voters over to the dark side, as if they believed women voters were so stupid that they would vote for anyone in a skirt, but now I see that she is much, much worse. I have nothing against hockey moms -- I just don’t want to be one. If Sarah Palin had her way, she would take away that right not to be a mom. She wants to outlaw abortion -- so to call her a feminist is as laughable as calling evangelicals ‘Christians.’ They shouldn’t have the right to call themselves Christian, for they have no Christ-like attributes."

-- Margaret Cho, on her blog

************************************************************************************
"It's amazing that a woman has come that far. But from what I know about her, her policies are not things I agree with."

-- Meg Ryan, during a press junket for "The Women"

((What others think do not phase me. ))

There is a difference between being in agreement with someone's views and being influenced by what someone thinks. The former applies to both the stars' and my impressions of Sarah. The latter is how the GOP chose Sarah for McCain in the first place. lol.

I wonder why we put so much faith in celebreties and THEN.... revel in what they do wrong.


I mean, seriously, why do we CARE what they say? Or even think? I was looking up Elvis on YouTube.... I like him.. what can I say? Some reporter asked him if he supported the war... know what he said?.... LOL look it up.. watch it... he said "I can't say much about it, I'm just an entertainer". And, guess what... that's ALL he was! I don't give a flying.. um.. F..... who these people are. Nor do I care who they support. So, shut up, already! WE DON'T CARE!


THERE!

This is something that always puzzles me.


Why does anyone care what some Hollywood personality thinks?

Just because they make million dollar movies gives them no more expertise in politics than shoveling cow dung would.


yep
