ELLEN SAID WHAT???

You no doubt have heard the latest dust up concerning the “Hollywood” crowd. Ellen Degeneris was seen at a football game sitting next to, gasp, former President George Bush and his wife. The pseudo universe in which she dwells went crazy. Social media has condemned Ellen as a turncoat. How could she sit next to this villain of the left wing? 

If you follow such things, Ellen is an avowed homosexual liberal. Her politics could not be further from the politics of George Bush. She definitely lives and works among a crowd of disloyal lefties who believe, because they are wealthy and “famous”, that their political opinion should be everybody’s opinion. Sorta like communism, one voice, one choice, one opinion. Dissenters should be destroyed. Alternate opinions should be silenced. My way or no way. 

Well, it now appears Ellen holds a different belief. She went on her show, not to defend herself but instead to use the opportunity to teach what tolerance is all about. She declared that it is okay to be nice to people even if you disagree with them politically. It’s okay to have friends from the other side. 

Well not according to her crowd. The so-called tolerant left is completely intolerant of anybody or anything that doesn’t toe the line of their beliefs. That makes you a deserter. A betrayer. If you do that, you can’t belong.

Let’s examine just who this community of Hollywood lefties is. They are, for the most, individuals who, through no effort or fault of their own, were born with good looks. Of course there are some exceptions, like Rob Reiner and Michael Moore for example. Their work, if you want to call it work, is to memorize someone else's lines and speak them. They don’t create, they only re-create. They live in a fantasy world of make believe. One day they can be a king, and the next, a cowboy. They can shoot the gun out of the bad guy’s hand. Wow, what heroes. In reality most of them have the personality of an open grave and you wouldn’t want them in your house. 

So, why do we pay any attention to this bunch of spoiled brats? Who cares what Leonardo Dicaprio thinks about anything? I know I don’t. The media, on the other hand, seems quite taken with “stars”. When one of them wants to say something, regardless of how stupid it may be, there will be a microphone in their face. Look at what Katy Perry said. Katy who? Listen to what Rob Reiner has to say about this or that. You mean “meathead”? No thanks. These are not the types I go to for political opinion. If they can make music, perhaps I’ll listen to that. I haven’t been to a movie in several years. They would have to pay me to see most of the movies of the past few years. That industry effectively deleted me from their customer base and I am truly okay with that.

I’m old enough to remember when no one knew the politics of the stars. They lived their lives and we lived ours. Who they supported or voted for was always their own business. I can also remember when they were loyal Americans who supported the efforts of this country. They got involved with war bond sales. Some even enlisted in the military to help fight for freedom. Today you have ugly, vulgar, Robert DeNiro. He should be ashamed of himself. Can you imagine what Clark Gable or Jimmy Stewart or perhaps John Wayne would think of the loud mouthed entertainers who seem to command so much attention now? Trust me, they would be as disgusted as we are. 

Ellen has some strange associates. With friends like those, one certainly doesn’t need any enemies. Thank you for speaking out Ellen. I have developed a whole new respect for you.
