Title: Open Letter to Hollywood (Re: Iraq)
Post by catlind on Apr 7th, 2003, 8:35pm
Got this in email today:

An Open Letter To The Hollywood Bunch

 Ok, let's just say for a moment you bunch of
 pampered, overpaid, unrealistic children had your
 way and the U.S.A. didn't go into Iraq.
 
 Let's say that you really get your way and we
 destroy all our nuclear weapons and stick daisies in
 our gun barrels and sit around with some white wine
 and cheese and pat ourselves on the back, so proud
 of what we've done for world peace.
 
 Let's say that we cut the military budget to just
 enough to keep the National Guard on hand to help
 out with floods and fires.
 
 Let's say that we close down our military bases all
 over the world and bring the troops home, increase
 our foreign aid and drop all the trade sanctions
 against everybody.
 
 I suppose that in your fantasy world this would
 create a utopian world where everybody would live in
 peace. After all, the great monster, the United
 States of America, the cause of all the world's
 trouble would have disbanded it's horrible military
 and certainly all the other countries of the world
 would follow suit. After all, they only arm
 themselves to defend their countries from the mean
 old U.S.A.
 
 Why you bunch of pitiful, hypocritical, idiotic,
 spoiled mugwumps. get your head out of the sand and
 smell the Trade Towers burning. Do you think that a
 trip to Iraq by Sean Penn did anything but encourage
 a wanton murderer to think that the people of the
 U.S.A. didn't have the nerve or the guts to fight
 him?
 
 Barbara Streisand's fanatical and hateful rankings
 about George Bush makes about as much sense as
 Michael Jackson hanging a baby over a railing.
 
 You people need to get out of Hollywood once in a
 while and get out into the real world. You¹d be
 surprised at the hostility you would find out here.
 Stop in at a truck stop and tell an overworked, long
 distance truck driver that you don¹t think Saddam
 Hussein is doing anything wrong. Tell a farmer with
 a couple of sons in the military that you think the
 United States has no right to defend itself. Go down
 to Baxley, Georgia and hold an anti-war rally and
 see what the folks down there think about you.

Please
 visit Clarksville, Tennessee and the 101st Airborne
 and talk that SHIT, please visit those Real
 American's.
 
 You people are some of the most disgusting examples
 of a waste of protoplasm I¹ve ever had the
 displeasure to hear about.
 
 Sean Penn, you¹re a traitor to the United States of
 America. You gave aid and comfort to the enemy. How
 many American lives will your little, "fact finding
 trip" to Iraq cost? You encouraged Saddam to think
 that we didn't have the stomach for war. You people
 protect one of the most evil men on the face of this
 earth and won't lift a finger to save the life of an
 unborn baby.
 
 Freedom of choice you say?
 
 Well I'm going to exercise some freedom of choice of
 my own. If I see any of your names on a marquee, I'm
 going to boycott the movie. I will completely stop
 going to movies if I have to. In most cases it
 certainly wouldn't be much of a loss.
 
 You scoff at our military who's boots you're not
 even worthy to shine. They go to battle and risk
 their lives so ingrates like you can live in luxury.
 The day of reckoning is coming when you will be
 faced with the undeniable truth that the war against
 Saddam Hussein is the war on terrorism.
 
 America is in imminent danger. You¹re either for her
 or against her. There is no middle ground. I think
 we all know where you stand. I will stand with the
 soldiers, airmen, and sailors. The hard working men
 and women of this great country. Not the overpaid,
 pansy ass, Hollywood wimp wanna be's, and has beens,
 who can't hold a candle to real American's, the
 middle class blue collar workers.
 
 What do you think? Boycott any Hollywood type that
 protest against the USA.
 
 God Bless America

Hollywood's world war record puts the rest of us to shame.

"The Hollywood group is at it again. Holding anti-war rallies, screaming about the Bush Administration, running ads in major newspapers, defaming the President and his Cabinet every chance they get, to anyone and everyone who will listen. They publicly defile them and call them names like "stupid," "morons," and "idiots." Jessica Lange went so far as to tell a crowd in Spain that she hates President Bush and is embarrassed to be an American.

So, just how ignorant are these people who are running the country? Let's look at the biographies of these "stupid," "ignorant," "moronic" leaders, and then at the celebrities who are castigating them: "

Did anyone say anti-hollywood demonstration?????? When and where??

Hollywood film is to the art of fimmaking what house painting is to the art of painting.

These people know as much about reality as Iraqi's know about Seinfeld.

Shut The Fuck Up? Sorry, not going to shut up. That would be un-American. I support the Constitution of the United States of America. I once took a pledge to do so, and while I no longer hold the position the oath was required for, I never took it back.  

Check out this opinion piece in the NY Times. (You have to register to read it, but it's free.)

I WILL NOT go see or buy VHS or DVD's of the movie people whom have said they don't support our troops and they cause they fight and die for. I just won't! Once it's all said and done, I MIGHT "consider" seeing or buying a film with one of these folks in it. Maybe when hell freezes over and bulls have tits! LMAO (when it comes to some things I hold a gruge this being one of them) The Rosie O'Donnel, Sean Penn and George Clooney's of the world can kiss my lilly white peach fuzz covered ass till then.
Happy dancer out *POOF*

Hollywood was more liberal, full of more socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-citizens, in the 1930s and 40s, than it is today.  Hollywood is responsible for multi-millions in war bond sales, countless educational, patriotic, and military films. You can still see these and the many films that were deliberate propaganda for both world wars. Turner Classic Movies runs these shorts all the time, made mostly by liberals that make today's currant crop, look like George Patton.

Of course, this was when Presidents looked for capable people rather than raid the classifieds in newspapers with lots of pictures. For now we're stuck with people who rely on stirring up fear and blame everyone but themselves for the country's ills; real and perceived. Hollywood is a great place to focus this hatred. It’s an easy way to appeal to those for whom reading is a chore.

It's so much easier.
