Did you to hear the woman on Marc Maron's show? Blaming Hollywood...
for all the ills of this country. She claims that Hollywood is out of touch with mainstream America making movies about gays (Brokeback Mountain) and racism (Crash).
Well that seems to be a depiction of REALITY to me. Gays and racists exist in this country and always have.
It seems to me that the RW/Fundies have a real hard time with REALITY!
Who's out of touch?

2. Anyone who wonders how did we get here....
this is how. Too many people in this country can no longer separate reality and fantasy..not to mention entertainment and journalism. No accident.

4. isn't it funny how "out of touch" means not a bigot like me
the first thing they say is about gays -

I want to ask people like her, what if all the gays were magically gone. What then. Would the world be cured? How? What would really be different? This woman probably has never even met a gay person (that she knows of) -- how would gays, who already aren't in her life, be the cause of everything that's wrong with her life?

It makes you wonder. Hope she's not a democrat.

14. Maron had ne mercy with her.
He kept asking her if corruption in govt and an illegal war might have something to do with it and she wouldnt answer him to those questions.
So very typical of RW hypocrites.
