Barbra Streisand and the Democratic Party
I would like to request that everyone with common sense send an email/letter/post up a message and/or spread the word for Barbra Streisand to SHUT THE HELL UP! and go away.

She's an embarassment to the Democratic Party. Pure and simple.
What happened to the days of the 70's when the Democrats had great leaders and great agendas, and were bound together.

Not today. we have a bunch of sniveling, lying, money-squandring, hyppocritical as*holes who mouth off in public and make my party look bad!

example..

Barbra and the rest of the hollywood elite pukes fly around in private gass-guzzling jets. She has ordered cusom SUV's... I can bet my life that she DOESNT pay 50% taxes.. like her tax bracket demands...and thus is one of the 'wealthy' that we hate so much that squanders money when millions are starving and poor. She has multiple houses around the world, and from what I read (i've not seen them myself) she keeps them air-conditioned year round even when she's not there.

Oh, she's an idiot too, who barely made it out of high school education. Oh, then she's suing a environmentalist for 50Million becuase he accused her of destroying a california beach front.

I dont care if she's against Bush, or bashes the repubs or not, the enemy of my enemy is NOT MY FRIEND.

To her and george 'squander money' cloony.. shut the f*ck up, you're NOT a Democrat.. and if you were, you would start paying taxes, actaully DO something about the environment, like live in a smaller house!

and dont call me a freeper for being pissed that the Democratic party has been taken over by money-grubbing-lying-hyppocritical morons such as 'babs'.

2. This might belong in GD, but nitpick aside I agree with you
I've always wondered, but never really asked, what do the Hollywuss folk spend their money on. They tell the commoners to be vegan, and to buy the pricey electric cars, and bash Bush (hence the bullshit idea that the media is liberal I suppose... :eyes: )

Many of Hollywuss's stars are hypocrites. But one who will never be is Rosie O'Donnell. She's a most decent human being.

If you could provide links to your accusations, you'll get a lot more people behind you, but I agree with your suspicions that Hollywuss is nothing more than an act. They want us to carry the real load while we pay them millions of $ in an unjustified salary.

11. When?
She's spoken out loud AGAINST "president" Bush on a number of occasions and I bet she's fuming now. What the hell did he do to change her so radically?! Any links? I tried searching but couldn't find much except the typical psychotic nonsense from Drudge...

7. evidence
Yeah, I agree with you. Rosie is a pretty good person all in all.

As far as links, it's hard to get proof becuase cnn, la times rarely run that kind of thing.. they protect them. I've been to LA, and saw it for myself, the hollywood pukes are such hippocrites.

I watch E! entertainment, and they do tons of interviews and celebrety profiles. I get my information from them and all over.

(and dont say they're a freeper website, they have all the goods on bush jr. and sr. and they are un-biased in their bashing from what I've seen)

12. Good point!
True, the media has a habit of protecting hypocrites and warmongers to an extent; and the fact the media isn't as harsh as it should only proves the point even father.

During the course of Iraq, my local FOX news channel for example tries to be noble and protecting. Then Shrubbypants* comes on saying "Marriage should be between a man and a woman... we have lawyers looking into this..." FOX news repeated the phrase "between a man and a woman" several times to let us know how they feel, the bastards.

And Bush saying he has lawyers looking into it? This is where I agree with a certain William Shakespeare... Heck, I know a lawyer who'd want me dead if he found out I was gay...

8. yes
Yes you can say "oh but the right-wing people like Coulter are worse!" and maybe that's true, but that doesn't dismiss the fact that their frieks and hippocrits.

The only way to win back the white house is to make a strong Democratic party.. wouldn't you agree? and having these frieks (displayed like gods by the media) at the front lines are NOT helping us.

9. You are so angry and hostile.....
Edited on Fri Aug-01-03 09:38 AM by liberalnurse
Where did all that negative energy come from?

Babes is fantastic!!! She has her pulse on the corrupt neo-cons and lets them have it.....She is a great support to human rights and dignity and recognizes the abuse in the White House.... I admire her courage. I wish she would run for the gov job in Cal.

Oh, in response to your request, I won't call you a freeper.....Why would I do that? You are just processing your thought.


I love ya Babes!!!!


:bounce:

10. I agree with you on the hypocrite part,
but she like everyone else have a right to state their opinion. Just wish the media would put out the good opinions (like mine) a little more.
And welcome to DU.

14. AGREE
How about ALL the hollywood types shut up and go away.
If you have a microphone, doesn't mean you know what you're talking about.

I think they make our party (Democrats) look bad. the La Times props them up sooo much is sad. What do they know? most of them barely made it out of high-school and they're goign to tell ME about education and the world? I've traveled to over 20 countries and some snob (Repuke or Democrat) isn't going to tell me what to think becuase they get paid 10Million per movie

Democrats in 04!!!

Ok i'll be more positive in my posting from now on :P

19. At least we dems have sense enough
Edited on Fri Aug-01-03 10:37 AM by notsodumbhillbilly
to see the obvious. I'll NEVER understand why chimp supporters have given him a pass on going AWOL from the National Guard, all the lies he told about justification for Iraq, and worst of all ignoring the Aug. 6 2001 report that Al Qaeda planned to attack our country using airplanes. How could anyone support such treason??????

Freeps are not very nice, and probably put wood shavings in their underwear.

21. I would rather watch a Hollywood Pussy
in a movie which champions the human spirit and promotes love and peace than watch a bunch of soldiers mowing down innocent people.

18. One Reason
One reason Barbara Sterisand "doesn't pay 50% taxes...like her tax bracket demands" is that the top tax bracket for earned income is 38.6% -- and it's even less for capital gains. So before you start deciding who is and isn't a Democrat, you might try to at least get your facts straight.

Steisand and Clooney are wealthy. Get over it. They could put up their feet and not give a damn about anybody else, but they choose to use their time (and no small amount of their own money) to support causes they believe in.

As Bill Clinton (I believe) once said, "Don't allow the perfect become the enemy of the good."

20. Yep - some believe that you must fit into their brackets
to be a Dem - they aren't doing us any good. Thankyou for your post!
