[pstans]

4. She really is an American that is screwing up America

Just like Bernie Goldberg said in his book.

:sarcasm:

[Auntie Bush]

11. You had me worried there for a minute!

[longship]

5. Kicked.

:kick:ed

[biscotti]

6. Done

[ThoughtCriminal]

7. Why mention Streisand?

Why not just ask THE BIG QUESTION: "Should George W. Bush be impeached?

Is it because they just want to associate calls for impeachment with "Hollywood liberals"?

[shance]

10. Bingo*** Because that's what the patriarchal press does. It scapegoats

It has a special affinity for powerful women who don't bow down to white conservative male privilege.

[rzemanfl]

17. Striesand has something in common with *. She takes her fine

linen sheets with her when she travels, just like *. She deserves them, * doesn't.

[IChing]

12. what are you, a "thought criminal" ? I need to have a talk with you in

room 101 about your statement.

vote is still 54 no

[peekaloo]

13. No shit.

Kurt Vonnegut called for his impeachment on 'NOW' a few weeks ago and I don't remember a CNN Poll.

[Gman]

8. Done

still 54-46

[Pam-Moby]

9. Done and kick it hard

19. Nice! Done and kicked.

I find her call for IMPEACHMENT anything BUT out of line. I view it as a very patriotic public service. Many of us have been urging IMPEACHMENT for a long time. Only because we all love our country and care DEEPLY about what happens to her when she falls into the wrong hands!

[DesEtoiles]

15. tee hee. I love to mess with CNN.

[rzemanfl]

16. If we could only get a President who could "President" like

Striesand can sing...

[KatieB]

kicked

[Wilms]

20. Damn. CNN's Entertainment site!

I voted. But between DU and me, I think we'd be better off without her help.

She mobilizes the opposition. Sure. They're shooting the messenger. And now I am, too.

Babs is radioactive.

[Kurovski]

50. I don't share your view of Babs as an accidental Karl Rove.

We've gotta try and stop driving ourselves nuts with all the "who can say what when, and who should be allowed to speak". I know, it's hard. The Repubs strive to have us on the run.

But it's true that the press sure "works it". If anything THEY should be taken to task for being so concerned with what Americans say, and ignoring the crazy crap that BushCo comes up with.

Streisand is ten times smarter and saner than is America's Dear Leader.

Try to embrace her radioactivity Wilms! She's getting the message out. Why, I'll wager Miss S will even have a few new Republican fans when all this is done with! :hi:

[Wilms]

52. OK, OK. I'll try.

But I ain't makin' promises.

[Kurovski]

53. Hehehe! That's all I ask , dear Wilms.

After all, even Babs herself wouldn't want to "Rain on your parade". ;-)

[tibbir]

21. 55% to 45% says no to this stupid quesrion.

She was just stating her opinion.

[Slyder]

22. We listen, Republicans elect

We Democrats politely listen to Democratic movie stars and other celebrities when they talk politics. Republicans elect them to public office--Sonny Bono, Ronald Reagan, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, to be precise. And then Republicans claim that evil value-destroying Hollywood celebrities are ruining America. Something is wrong with the way Republicans think! Streisand has made more films that reflect American values than Schwarzenegger has! Go figure.

[FizzFuzz]

39. you make a good point

welcome to DU :hi:

31. Oh good grief. First Amendment folks, first amendment.

Anyone can say they think it's time to impeach the president and they aren't out of line. Truly horrific ignorance out there.

[zann725]

41. Done! Also emailed them.

Just because she's a Celeb by profession, does NOT mean she's not politically astute. Besides, Babs has always been candid...and entirely entitled to an opinion...as all of us "we-the-people" are. It's called Democracy...quaint as the concept seems these days.

54. They did not leave that poll up long.

When I click on your link, they now have a poll about whether security should be increased in theaters.

[Joe Chi Minh]

55. I suspect that, on the bread line, so many US citizens

are on nowadays, the talk would be of little else.

[Joe Chi Minh]

56. I should add, "as so many of us are today in the UK".

59. So where's the poll?

Looks like CNN took it down.

[laundry_queen]

60. Yeah, I can't find it either. n/t

[Poet Lariat]

61. There's a "whole nuther" story in CNN and other Corporate

News Media's removal of public information when things get "sticky". Reminds me of "selection night" when the exit poll numbers magically changed to match the vote totals.

Nothing to see here. Move on.

EDIT: I know that DU'ers are keenly aware of this practice. Hoping that more ways can be found to inform those who aren't.

[Hailtothechimp]

62. I guess CNN didn't like the results. A new poll is up.

Question: Should Movie theaters heighten security?

Anyone have a screen grab of this poll???
