BigHollywood: Actors Will Ferrell, Jeremy Piven, John C. Reilly, Danny DeVito, and Sarah Silverman are among the 128 “artists and cultural leaders” that have put their names to an open letter calling for Sanders to be the Democrat presidential nominee.
Notable musicians who have signed the letter include David Crosby, Bonnie Raitt, Alejandro Escovedo, members of the Red Hot Chili Peppers and composer Hans Zimmer.
“We – the undersigned artists, musicians and cultural leaders of America – are excited to endorse a new vision for our country,” the open letter reads. “It’s a vision that pushes for a progressive economic agenda. It’s a vision that creates jobs, raises wages, protects the environment, and gets big money out of politics.”
“We endorse Bernie Sanders to become the 2016 Democratic Nominee for President of the United States of America.” more
I rarely give a nickle to hollywood but thanks for the list. People need to see this and spend their hard earned money accordingly.
Every so often I figure that Sarah Silverman, Will Ferrell and all of their ilk have gotten as dumb a you can get but each time they raise my expectations that they have a lower IQ then previously thought. I wonder what they’d have to say when their income tax rate is raised to 75% (because of their wealth and white privilege) and the film studios start to employ government overseers to ensure that all the films coming out do not offend any group (except white males). God, these people are stupid. I wonder how Hillary feels? Maybe a nasty feeling of deja vu is starting to set in. Watch your back Hillary, the knives are being unsheathed.
People who’ve been sniffing paint thinner all their lives? Uhhhh, yeah. I sure wanna take their advice.
“Cultural leaders?” Hardly.
You can lead a whore to a library,
but you can’t make them think.
Let them have California. Just give me time to get out. Trump can get the Mexicans to run that wall straight up the California border and we will give them California under the conditions all Liberal need to move here, they can’t come back to the U.S. and they can’t use other peoples money.
It’s a shitty, Godless, self-absorbed culture, it allows for all kinds of man-given rights.
artists and “cultural leaders” = assholes and amateurs.
Useful Idiots
Supporting
A
Useless Idiot
” Cultural leaders?”….I think I need more cowbell…..LOL…
But at least their rejecting Hillary…
Stupid is as stupid does.
You can’t make this shit up.
“Jews For Hitler!”
How do we start a “Cultural Leader’s BS SuperPAC?”
WOW look at the sweat dripping down Comrade Berni’s shirt. He could use a deodorant/antiperspirant. I wonder which ONE brand the Party Central Committee has approved for the masses.
Folks…FOLKS!!!
DON’T complain!!!
Wouldn’t it be better if Trump or Cruz had BERNIE (and…who?…Lena Dunham as VP?!?) as an opponent than Biden/Warren?!!!?
REJOICE!
I take it back.
Wouldn’t it be IDEAL if Bernie had
ANGELA DAVIS as a VP?!?
Any OTHER SUGESTIONS?!
Dorothy Parker’s original quip (when she was asked to use the word “horticulture” in a sentence) was, “You can lead a horticulture, but you can’t make her think”.
Just FYI.
🙂
Danny Devito is a cultural leader! HAAAAAAAAAA The ugly little smarmy troll is not big enough to lead a parade of rats down a sewer pipe!
Should Danny DeVito be allowed to count as a whole “artist”, or only a half of one…?
😉
Oh, fuck it. I guess I’ll just be inartistic and uncultured.
Just some of the losers who support Bernie, Loudon Wainwright the 3rd (anyone remember Dead skunk in the middle of the road), George Wendt, Elvin Bishop (I used to like his music, not now),Jackson Browne, Will Ferrell (overrated and not funny), Bonnie Raitt, Cornell West, Margaret Cho ( I can’t stand her),David Crosby and Graham Nash (leftover has been hippies),Will Wheaton, Susan Sarandon and last but not least Steve Wozniak and etc. I don’t give a flying fig about any of these hollyweirdos and their ilk and what they think. They’re all just a bunch of has beens for the most part and self absorbed jerks as far as I am concerned. BERNIE SUCKS AND HIS SUPPORTERS ARE A BUNCH OF BRAIN DEAD MORONS! AS WELL AS BEING A COMMIE TO THE CORE!
Funny … they’re all rich …
What is more disconcerting? This lot endorsing a fossil of a socialist or that they refer to themselves as artistic and cultural leaaders?
It might not be necessary to build a wall.
We could achieve a similar result by simply making it less attractive to illegals.
So. No more sanctuary cities. No more free shit. No more reconquista. No more sending money to the third world.
Fix your own damn country, instead of ruining ours.
Adios, Paco.
And take your anchor babies with you. We don’t want them.
(And as long as I’m dreaming, no more muzzies.)
Devito was drunk when he signed it. But then, I hear he’s drunk most of the day anyway. He’s a very nasty little man.
signed “not the billionaires”… just the millionaires (the ones you’ve heard of). and there’s at least one billionaire in that bunch (steve wozniak). fork ’em in the ice…
Vietvet,
Dorthy Parker’s one of my Favorite!
I like “What Fresh Hell is this?”
That has got to be the single best comment I have ever heard in response to a ringing doorbell. The wording is truly Shakespearean, and I frequently think of it when the phone rings, because there’s usually some kind of scammer on the other end of the line.
🙂
Disappointed to see Belinda Carlisle (gonna have to give that girl a spanking), Steve Earle, Charlie Musselwhite, Bonnie Raitt, and Lucinda Williams. Some of the others were already on my shit list or I never heard of their worthless progtard ass.
Burn in hell with Bernie and you too can be a Burn-ee.
The libs in my California acquaintance circle are absolutely nuts about Bernie. I have detected zero social media support of Hillary (just as you can’t name one friend who supports Jeb on our side). One guy posts an endless stream of Bernie memes on Facebook all day long, with supposed “zinger” quotes of Bernie’s and pictures of him wagging his finger. Really, really simplistic Occupy type plaints. I wonder what throwing O’Biden in the mix is gonna do.
I was at Lou Barlow’s house in L.A. in 1999 while my band was touring there. i drank half a bottle of his whiskey. He was asleep the whole time. Never even met the guy, but his wife was nice.
128 ‘ARTISTS AND CULTURAL LEADERS’ SIGN OPEN LETTER ENDORSING BERNIE SANDERS…that enuf to disqualify right there…the list of tv shows and films to see is getting smaller and smaller
Dear sir, I am fully aware of who Dorothy Parker was and what the original quote was.
If quoted, there would be quotes, there are none.
Perhaps I could have entered my apologies for the intentional misquote but, she is dead, eh?
The culture Mz. Parker was alluding to is as over as the Algonquin Round Table.
The headline says “cultural leaders” so apparently the whores are already there, I was offering the access to a library where they still have books that don’t exactly hold socialism in high regard.
Cheers!
No need to apologize to anyone, least of all, as you say, Ms. Parker. Since most misquotes are not intentional, I merely thought you would be interested to know what the original was. Since I now know that you were aware of it, please let me assure you that no offense was intended by my comment, and I hope none was taken. It was merely, as I said, FYI.
Best regards.
As with ObamaCare and the $15.00 pay raise, they won’t care until after the fact when their income tax raised to 75%.
