All these people complaining about "Un-American"/do-nothing celebs please...stop it!!!


I've seen no less than three different "letters to the editor" types (2 in the N.Y. Post- big surprise) rail on about celebrities who will contribute to other nations/people, but not to those in need here...everyone from Bruce Springsteen, Dave Matthews, John Mellencamp, George Clooney, and Angelina Jolie was cited as being "uncaring" re. the plight of Americans (?!??!?) by these numbnuts...
First of all, since when is helping people from foreign lands considered "wrong", anyway??? Is there any doubt that many of these people (through no fault of their own) are in dire need of whatever aid they can get? So why begrudge them that, regardless of who's making the donation/contribution...
Second, how about giving these people you're bashing more than two MINUTES to react to this unspeakable calamity...some of these performers (and many others) HAVE since given their time AND money to relief aid/causes; in fact Matthews AND Mellencamp (two performers whose music I am not esp. fond of), have helped out people in this country through benefit concerts, Farm Aid shows, etc. ...Springsteen has done the same for American citizens in need countless times...
As for that sexy minx Angelina, who was chided for not adopting homeless American orphaned babies by one assclown, she's in secret negotiations to "adopt" KMB, Hater, and yours truly as her special "servant" boys...this lady has only so much time and energy to give, you know... :)))

As my father so calmly informs me whenever I go off on one of these NY Post filled rants, "That's what you get for reading the Post in the first place."

These people know that nothing puts up the smokescreen around their dear leader's incompetence quite like blaming Hollywood celebrities from the decadent left coast.

I had a conversation with someone who was railing about how awful Michael Moore was for asking people to donate on his site and "not making his own donation" and when I asked him how he knew he didn't make a donation then he didn't quite have a response.

It's easy to slime. It's harder to look deep down for the truth about who is responsible for this debacle.

For the record, KMB, only HALF of those letters I referred to was from the NY post; they have some howlers in the Philly/NJ papers as well...to kira, there's no easy answer to that question right now (nor will I try to tackle it any time soon), but one can wonder on the toll it will take on certain people in power, assuming they have a working conscience...
