Hollywood only supports LIBERAL tragedies

The Hollywood left has always been all about fundraising for disasters so they can asuade their guilt for making millions of dollars and not really contributuing to the common good of society but when it comes to the last two disasters they are mysteriously absent.

They can raise 60 million dollars for Haiti (which is a good cause) but not a single dime for the flood victims in Nashville, Tennessee (USA) nor anything for the people on the gulf coast (USA).

Some of them have been present but only in the form of trying to tell BP how to handle the spill. as if this was just make believe and they can use a camera angle to make it disappear.

COUNTDOWN — DAY 40: Hollywood Ignores Gulf Oil Spill & Nashville Floods by Big Hollywood

If there’s anything Hollywood does well and deserves credit for, it’s raising money for victims of natural disasters. For some reason, though, the flood that Nashville is still digging out from under – the flood that killed eleven people – has been almost completely ignored by Hollywood.


Same with the Gulf Oil Spill.

When you look at Hollywood’s recent history in rallying for this kind of thing, you’re left to ask why? Where are the telethons and public pleas for humanitarian assistance? Is it that the Nashville “rubes” don’t rate? Is it that calling any attention to the ongoing catastrophe in the Gulf can only hurt Their One? What else could it be?


Nashville stars came out for Nashville and good on them, and so did David Spade. But where was/is the big star-studded nationally televised gala?


And in the Gulf, with the exception of Kevin Costner, all we’ve seen thus far from Hollywood are shockingly shameless A-listers covering for Obama and behaving in ways little better than price-gougers as they cravenly exploit this environmental and economic catastrophe to push their own political agendas.

Oil Spill: Leftist Hollywood Circles Wagons For Obama; Demand Higher Taxes, Fewer Jobs by John Nolte

This is a little off-topic, but whenever I read something conjured by some A-lister over at the HuffPo, I’m always struck by how dull and humorless the writing is. These are big shots, performers, stahs, and most of them write as though they’re submitting some kind of college entrance exam. Where’s the voice, the personality, the wit…? Yes, we get it, you’re … smart … and … informed … and … serious. But for my sake — for the sake of the guy whose job it is to trudge through your mighty impressiveness on a daily basis, could you you spice it up some — a little hot-cha-cha for you’re favorite right-wing extremist?


And this isn’t an ideological thing. As morally and politically illiterate as many of my writer foes on the left are, at least they’re not boring.

Where was I? Oh, yes, the wagon circling. Other than nudging Obama to be even more socialist when it comes to the kind of regulation and oversight necessary to kill middle-class jobs and tax us all into poverty ensure this tragedy never happens again, not a single one criticizes the President for his mishandling of the spill. But guess who does rank a Babs mention?


Redford’s video above is a pretty fascinating piece of propaganda. Take special note of how he at first laments the job losses caused by the spill but then closes by calling for even more job losses through an end to offshore drilling. It should go without saying that the Obama administration’s voting present throughout the 50-plus days of this disaster never comes up. (more…)
