Those poor, poor Hollywood Conservatives!
The Sweep: Right wingers take on 'Left Coast'
By Mark Preston, CNN Senior Political Editor
http://www.cnn.com/2011/POLITICS/02/23/hollywood.conservatives/index.html

Gotta post the "best" (nuttiest) part:

But "Saturday Night Live" veteran Victoria Jackson offers a different view. Her frustration with Hollywood is only matched by her disappointment that President Obama is leading the country. An outspoken critic of the president, Jackson has even recorded a song about him titled "There's a Communist Living in the White House." It is included on her newest CD, "Use Me," which Jackson was selling at CPAC.

"Obama is a communist," declared Jackson, who noted she become actively involved in politics when Obama was elected president. "I only woke up because we elected a communist. How can I hold it inside when I see people going off a cliff? I have to say, 'You are going off a cliff.'"

Jackson, who describes herself as a believer in Jesus Christ, charged that there is discrimination in Hollywood -- religious discrimination.
"They just don't dislike Christians, they hate God," said Jackson, who later added, "You don't know how liberal it is, even the Christians are communist."

So, where is the discrimination?
"Do you see me on TV? No," responded Jackson, who spent six years on SNL. "Do you see me in movies? No."

1. You don't see her on TV or the movies because she's a no-talent dimwit.

5. When she was on SNL 20+ years ago, I distinctly remember asking myself...
"Um... what's her talent?" She wasn't funny, had poor timing and couldn't imitate anyone. The only thing I can recall of her work is that she would stand on her head on the Weekend Update desk and let her skirt fall down and show her panties. That's it. That's the sum-total of her work.

3. They arent hiring you because you're a religious nut
They arent hiring you because your long past your expiration date as a squeaky voiced airhead.

That works when you're 20 something, but as old as you are now it just means you're an idiot.

8. Maybe Dennis is willing to perform acts that she won't

10. So which Jesus does she believe in?
Jewish Jesus or Aryan Jesus. I'm betting it's the latter. Obama is hardly a Democrat let alone a communist. I find her dislike of him racist.

13. Uh we don't see you on TV because we don't want to see you at all period.
You look and sound like a big overgrown 2year old. You're too hard on the eyes and ears not to mention the stomach. :puke:

17. uh.. you have to go to auditions and prove you have talent.
Typical Republican. She thinks she should be handed opportunities simply because she can parrot ridiculous, idiotic right wing beliefs. Then she blames "liberals" for her own glaring failures.

There are a lot of people in America role playing this fantasy right now. They have themselves convinced that repeating right wing mantras is the passcode to a world of riches. When it doesn't happen for them, it's always because liberals have rigged the game somehow.
