Ed Asner...in need of publicity

I have been quite busy with my "real life" and have had little time for the internet. That is until I heard Ed Asner talking about his new movie,"Up". I feel, when he was asked where he would like to go back to visit? Seemed like a harmless question. Out of the mouth of someone I have watched over the years came a statement that will forever make me a "fan of telling everybody what a liberal mouthpiece jerk he is". He said he wanted to go back to Alaska...a state that is so nice a person like Sarah Palin does not deserve it. Typical MSM setup...like a bowling pin.

Now I was caught completely off guard. Why would he choose Alaska unless it was to deliberately take a potshot at a conservative that all liberals are afraid of. She is and should be a front runner for the next presidential election. Her conservative stance is refreshing. His left leaning politics are typical liberal junk...all hype and talk filled with baseless hate and fear mongering. I have only in the last 24 hours paid any attention to his rhetoric. And now that I see he hates anything good and decent I will ignore him and hope he just goes away. I will not waste my money on a movie with someone who, like most of Hollywood, spews because it is the fashionable thing to do. Their conviction of the moment is whichever way the wind blows. I see very few movies because of my convictions. I hate to punish my self and family for refusing to see fare that just feeds the liberal left wing kooks and makes them continue to think that they have a real impact on my outlook on life. They do have an impact on the weak minded and foolish people, that have been taught by left wing kook professors and teachers, who are not capable of thinking for themselves.

Although Asner seems to be a long time left wing extremist, he seems to be among the minority. Most are of the recent “I hate Bush at all cost and without thinking I will support anything anti-Bush, no matter how destructive it is to America”. Though Hollywood has a long history of debauchery and decadence, it always had a few good strong conservatives in the leadership of the rest. Now the extremist are the rule.

Think of it. Intelligent people who are taking their political stances from an actor? I think I will go to a plumber for my brain surgery! Most have no political experience or training. And many, for the most part, are uneducated. They chose acting because it was something they could do without learning a skill or passing a test. I am not saying acting is not a skill nor is it easy. But I dare any actor to spend a day as a day laborer, or counter person, or any “real” job that requires daily attendance, on time, and properly prepared each day for years...Few could do it.

Before you think I do not know who Reagan was, I am a great admirer of him and his conservative views. He was an exception in a town full of liberals. There have always been a few conservatives in Hollywood. Very few.

As for the people like Asner I wish America would grow a backbone and refuse to attend movies, buy music or generally support left wing extremist. Sooner than later they would just disappear from public view and then they would understand that if they wanted to support unpopular views they could do it with knowledge of the end of their career it will cause.
