Hollywood helps out...
John Kerry raised 3 million in Hollywood today. Leonardo DeCaprio, Meg Ryan, Jennifer Aniston, Larry David, and many more gave 3.2 million in donations today! For Kerry that is a 2 day total of 6 million!

I have done some work in the entertainment industy and at one time studied theatre, one of the only things I can say about actors in general is that they are usually loyal democrats with progressive views. Also they tend to be some of the most accepting people I have ever met, so I just wanted give a kick for all of the actors out there that actually give a shit about this country.

:kick:

2. I wish they'd help with a film or two
We need some celluloid to show the result of the AWOL rotters.

Film concept: "Twenty Twenty" (2020) - Our heroine gets out of bed
on the day of her death (similar motif like American beauty -
narration "i did not know i am dying today.") She goes for her
morning jog using a hand tazer to attack starving and sick people
who she finds threatening, as she jogs by her apartment in
Inglewood, California. Her boyfriend is on the mobile phone to her
while she runs. He is stationed in Guam in a B-52 wing. The film
portrays a nation 40% in dirt poverty, with a dollar equal to 5 yen.
On the morning news, we hear comforting news about joint military
exercises with the fledgling military of the Republic of Taiwan.
The camera flashes to aircraft carriers in the Taiwan straight, and
in the Majesty of the fleet and air-force doing such a great job of
"defending" America. Then a series of missile trails belies the new
reality. A 100 mile high air-burst nuke blows over Taipei, and a war
has begun. By the end of the film, no city remains intact on the
American west coast. In her dying words, she says, "fucking bush"
under her breath as the skin is vaporized from her body.

Americans need some celluloid to explore the new bush-future so we
can decide in the longer term whether we're interested in having
cities, or just radiation zones.

A second film: "Civil War II" Portrays millions of impoverished
Americans flowing in to the streets, whilst groups of states declare
sovereignty after the big bush bankruptcy of 2010. The subsequent
war between states makes for a fascinating action flick, and the
flag-cult ultimately is contained to the traditional south, whist
overseas commands like CENTCOM, break free, and wage war on behalf
of regional states. The 7 global military commands, focus all their
forces defending and expanding the newly minted 7 nations of north
America in a war that makes all previous wars in human history look
bloodless. The end of the film, shows 200,000,000 dead Americans
and republicans crucified on crosses, just like in "Spartacus" with
the bush family just outside the capital of the new nation of the
northeast. No cities or electric power exist. Martial law is
all that remains, but (just like in Spartacus). A slave lover
shows the last of the bush-cabal their child as he dies from
crucifixion for war crimes.
