Hollywood
I was thinking today about the protests that took place yesterday. I commend all of the celebrities who took the time out of their day to become a “high profile” opposition to America. That is right, I said America. Your kids watch that, you watch that, you probably believe that these people are right. Thank GOD for the first amendment. I do not think these people are right.
Red carpet, how appropriate. Do you honestly think that these people have one clue how it works in the real world. Have you ever taken a year off to lie around the pool and just collect your thoughts? So, why do these misinformed, semi-famous people get to have national attention? Tim Robbins, an obvious heavyweight in cinema today, (seriously how many Oscars has that guy won in the last few years, don’t get me started on that.) could not answer a simple question without getting nasty. I suppose that they feel they have a social responsibility to speak out against our government. Why do they think that being a celebrity makes them important in our lives? Seriously, if someone asked them a question concerning their beliefs, they look like a deer in the headlights, they had a script and that was not part of it.
And, I believe they have the right to free speech, I would fight to the death for that right. However, they (hollywood) will not, how many high profile young men and women have volunteered? You can make a case for Pat Tillman, a hero that hollywood can learn something from, he died for our country. That is it, he died for our country, he fought and died because he was a member of our military, how it happened none of us will ever understand. We are not there (war zone), most of us did not volunteer for the military. Most of you have never seen the inside of a mine and I would not expect you to understand what goes on there. And yet someone who makes 25 million dollars a year, (pretending to be someone else), says they understand the plight of our solders. I think not.
I have one more thing to add; yesterday the New York Post said “9/11 was not that bad”. Think about that.

The Free World??
As I watched the ANTI-BUSH protest all I could think about is what a waste of time energy and money! How about instead of a anti-war protest, we have a anti-dictatorship rally, an anti-terrorist rally, an anti-socialist rally, an anti-racist rally!! Wake up america! Instead of anti-war lets have a “UNITY RALLY FOR FREEDOM AROUND THE WORLD” so no one has to fear going to the store and not coming back!! I’ll say it again “WAKE UP AMERICA”! We live in the land of the free. Stop taking it for granted and if you want to do something to make you feel important, then maybe you should look at how the rest of the world lives in fear! Then take a stand for what is right! Our fore fathers died for our freedom in america, now it is time for the rest of the world to enjoy those freedoms we take for granted.
