Even worse than the site, Hotchickswithdouchebags.com.....

Ok, not that bad, but still.  I'd rather see omegas scoring, than douchebags I spose.

I think the issue with this number is that Democrats assume that most of Hollywood is liberal so they don't need to "consider" their political positions.  They'd be raising a major stink if it were reversed.

I think we'd have to look closely at the demographics within the states themselves.  How many are blue throughout, and how many are blue cities in oceans of red?  Because a city can't secede on its own and survive.  Even if they could compel the state to follow, there's nothing to prevent the red population from picking up and leaving.

Depp was/is a big leftard. He said some things when he moved to France and got a lot of heat over it. I think he has dialed back making political public statements.

I personally don't care who they vote for, I just don't want to hear about it. When they feel the need to tell me I feel the need to watch the military channell instead.

<<rgan Freeman wasn't a rabid lefty, but even before his recent comments he really didn't count as a rightwinger.>>

I never wondered about his politics.  He never opened his mouth about it so I figured whatever it was, was his business.  The he goes full on flaming lib, accusing me of opposing Obama just because I'm racist.  That does it for me.

There is a deep level of liberal before I will flat out refuse to watch a certain celebrity.  The above names are all on my list.  There are many whom I figure have a right to their own opinion, even if they occasionally ruin a decent movie with their stupidity, then there are the ones who declare themselves to be my enemy.

Yeah, as a teen I was at the movies every weekend, but now, I've been to a theater maybe 4 times this year.  Mostly netflix stuff now.  Can't say that I've gotten to the point where I avoid specific individuals no matter the project, but if the movie topic is iffy such as "Avatar" then it won't seen at the theater.  Can't stand Tim Robbins or John Cusak's politics, but they have been in a number of films I've really enjoyed- "Tapeheads" starring both and "Better off Dead" with Cusak. As for Penn, I can only think of two movies he's done that are worth watching- "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" and "Carlito's Way".  Neither of which have him as the reason to watch the film.

I am completely unable to get past Sean Penn's lunatic list to port; he's so damn vocal about it, it just screams past any serviceable acting he may do.

I wouldn't walk across the street to pee on a theater showing a Sean Penn movie if the damn place was on fire.

Haven't seen it, but out of the clips I've seen, I'd actually be willing to buy that.

It's actually pretty good.  Since it's from the 70s time period, the left wing (ghey) messages seem pretty mild.

 A short decade and a half later, and I have to feel horny AND perverted. Damn it, aging sucks.

What, college girls? Back in the day, old Revolution/Civil War vets routinely married 14-year-olds.

OT- Code Pink is back. This is going to get really entertaining. They are part of OccupyDC and October2011 (add dot org to the second one) who tried to invade the Air and Space Musem today (because it has a drone exhibit.) Code Pink says they are here because money has corrupted "Congress and the White House". October2011's purpose is to protest the 11th anniversary of the Afghan war. How long can they keep this up without directly criticizing The Won? Maybe we'll have an LBJ moment.

Anyone know if we're still bombing Libya? I mean, I don't remember the official announcement that the bombings stopped.

How many terrorists did each bomb create, in Libya?

Is the Hopkins Institute doing a door-to-door survey to determine how many innocent people were killed by the bombs??

Ah, you probably missed this: Libya has banned all weddings for the duration, so Barry isn't killing any innocents. Bush shoulda thought of that. Nothing brings on a good bombing like a totally innocent wedding. Thanks for teaching us this, MFM!

A great alpha male scene.  Calling a woman on her bullshit...

And gentleman, in one way or another, that is more than half the battle.

Leo was a solid alpha in that movie.  I remember the scene distinctly.  Leo was the exciting alpha to the shrink, while Damon was the more "reliable" beta provider.  But the script flipped on her didn't it?  Great build up.

It is a great movie, for multiple reasons.

Man I loved that movie.

No shit. Saw it at the $1.50 theater, none of us had ever heard of it (except I had seen a small positive review somewhere). We raved about it for weeks. See that guy pop up every now and again, we always say, "Hey! Leon"!

Several years back during the oscars, they had a montage of the work of Elia Kazan for a lifetime acheivement award and Ed Harris just glowered at the screen when they showed him in the audience.  Kazan is hated not for his work, but because he named names of commies in Hollywood back in the day. 

The gender thing didn't even enter into it

Fair enough.  The scene was full of sexual tension though.  Something true beta Damon ultimately couldn't fulfill.

 DiCaprio was very good in The Aviator, which is a biography of a portion of Howard Hughes' life.

Liked him in that one as well.

after a while you start to LIKE  walking with facts, and using them. learn to trust logic and learn its not antithetical to faith and belief. Truth is your friend. But also truth is TRUTH, not your truth or his truth.  but just itself. THE TRUTH.

but like Howard Beale said you wont find it on TV or from anyone else. You have to go outside with your friend Logic, and discover it for yourself. And without logic its alot harder and you will get fooled ALOT.

Stockdale has a bigger set than BHO and that bitch wife  of BHO's combined

plus Joe Biden once said "I'd finally be a real man if I just had half of one of Stockdales nuts."

Forget the kitties, it's Sunday now.  Post something we will have to repent for at church.

Had. James Stockdale has passed beyond this mortal vale of tears.

One of the noblest men to ever put on the uniform of the United States Navy.

It's from his Live from Washington, D.C. set. I think you can still get that in his "HBO Specials" DVD box. And of course it can be found at an amazing discount in certain back alleys of the tubes.

The audience...comes around. His permission to go WHAT HE SAID! WOOT! at something that's not what a '90s comedy audience expects to hear gets 'em all excited, once they get over the initial shock. And Miller's kinda nervous when he starts the rant, because he's saying some unsayable things, but he eventually relaxes into it and lays it down Miller-style.

It's not funny, in pretty much the same way Bill Hicks wasn't, but it's a good show—his last good one, I think. I'm not a fan of his post-'92-or-so material, because there aren't many Dennis Miller jokes in it. Dude sounds like the writing staff for a show a Dennis Miller type hosts. Boo.

The occupy wallstreet is one of the stupidist, most ill conceived things I have ever seen the left do.  Either that or it is so brilliant I am unable to fathom its brilliance.  For now, I have to go with the former.

wow. but our borders are secure and its ok the drug violence is flooding over here. i really do start to wonder if there is some sort of govt complicity in allowing the operations of groups like MS-13 over here. it seems on some days corruption is the only answer as to why they arent more concerned. i hate that i have begun to think this way.

everything in my well off horsy area in cali is being bought up by mexicans. its unnerving. That said, my Grim is very light skinned hispanic. Some of this shit is scaring him. I get the distinct feeling that because of his job he knows things i dont. Part of his duty is rooting those bastards out of the services. Each branch has guys trained to recognize them. Some do it better than others. Marines take care of that shit on their own.

But theres problems. Not just hispanics. Mostly its cool but some people wont sit and eat with people who dont look like them, and its not white guys. And there was an incident in iraq where a hispanic guy caught shit for rooting for USA soccer team over mexico. And blacks and hispanics dont get along.

USMC. weird huh?

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, is visiting Zimbabwe amid a bitter dispute with protesting Breakaway Anglican bishop Nolbert Kunonga, a loyalist of longtime ruler President Robert Mugabe. Kunonga was excommunicated in 2007 by the main Anglican Province of Central Africa and the worldwide head of the church [above]. Kunonga was accused of inciting violence in sermons supporting Mugabe's party. Kunonga insists he split from the Anglican church because of its position on gay marriage.

Political correctness seeps into every aspect of our lives due to the power of the elites.  The military, even the USMC, is not immune to this.  Who needs warriors, when for less money you can have a brigade of gay, cross-dressing interior designers? 

My concern is that our entire military will be so demoralized and weakened by the deliberate actions of those domestic enemies that hate the Constitution that we will have no organized defense forces when we need them.

Prayers for Grim and his brothers in arms.
