Oh NO!!...Now it's "Entertainers for Buxh"!! *snicker*

[JohnnyRingo]

Battling the "Hollywood Left" crowd, this group of well known performers have banded together to support GDub.

Scanning their "members list" I see a lot of magicians for some reason. (There has to be some jokes there)

http://www.entertainersforbush.com/

Their own "research" has also revealed a list of "celebrity support", including Founding member Pat Boone and this guy:...."Lynyrd Skynyrd-rock star". And I thought he was a gym teacher.

Great pic of the webmaster and Sean Hannity on the home page. (Sorry though, he can't help them)

...This post was a toss up between Campaign '04 and the lounge, but it's good to lighten up a little on Sunday afternoon.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

1. These are entertainers?

No offense, but I've not heard of ANY of them! Seems to me that they are mostly "local" talent.

[Warpy]

6. Community theater, local clubs

with the exception of the few listed in Las Vegas, most would seem to have day jobs or go hungry a lot.

Oh well.

[mitchtv]

2. Pat Boone?hahahaha

seriously tho, Ron Silver speaking at the RNC? I should have seen it coming hw was very pro war on the talk shows.Anti Arab, any Arab, I guess.

[jakefrep]

15. Bruno Gianelli is a Republican? nt

[miamimama]

3. Is this a joke?

A bunch of nobody's.

[Fovea]

4. I am amazed

at the cavalcade of stars.

[luaneryder]

5. Kelsey Grammer!

Shit, I always liked Fraser.

[acmavm]

8. Isn't Kelsey known for liking young teenage babysitters? Or have I got

my republican Christian bush* supporting holier-than-thou hypocrites mixed up again?

[luaneryder]

10. Does he? Double damn!

[LTR]

45. He does tend to marry strippers

Haven't heard about the babysitter thing.

[Union Thug]

7. This is a website?

Looks like someone's 'build your own page' from geocities or something. Guess these entertainers couldn't pony up the bucks to make a decent website.

[Jade Fox]

9. Magicians: also know as Illusionists....draw your conclusions.

Entertainers: people of mundane talent who nevertheless insist on standing
up in front of audiences and annoying them.

[JohnnyRingo]

11. Heh heh...I imagine mimes are leaning that way too n/t

[bushwakker]

12. Wayne Alan-corporate illusionist? What - did he work for Enron?

too funny. i feel a little sorry for them folks.

[ET Awful]

13. When did the Hills move from Texas to Florida? . . .

From their membership list:

Bobby Hill
Musician
Miami, Florida

HEHEHEHE

[richmwill]

14. From what I've heard...

These entertainers are planning a big Pro-Bush concert/event in October. However, the manager of the Holiday Inn in Fargo, North Dakota is seething mad over this, he claims he'll be "damned if I'm gonna lose all my headline acts for that week! Who the hell do they expect me to get to replace these stars- am I going to have to book the Lennon Sisters for that entire week? That'll cost me some bucks!".

:)

[spanone]

16. Boy, Kerry is REALLY fucked now!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HamstersFromHell]

17. Corporate Illusionist?

Damn, sounds a lot like a crooked accountant to me.

Coulda called himself a "financial chef" and sounded at least as honest.

Website looks like a patchwork of stolen graphics mixed with bad Word clipart.

I gotta love reason #3 for joining them: "YOU MAY RECEIVE FREE PUBLICITY" I guess if whoring for *Bush isn't enough, whoring for yourself at the same time is a good deal.

If it weren't for the DU /. effect, I'd bet his hit counter don't go past 3 digits.

[bushwakker]

21. "Kenny Boy" Lay was a corporate illusionist

no wonder this fool supports AWOL.

[NightTrain]

18. I just read the list of members; and I haven't heard of any of them!

Am I really that out of touch with today's entertainers? Or is that website just another example of GOP desperation? :shrug:

[progressivebydesign]

19. Mmmmm. BIG names!

Ha, ha. You really made my day looking at those websites. I'm voting for Bush, that stellar group of entertainers pushed me over the edge. When I saw that a bass guitarist of a band that is playing at something like the "Hungry Crab Tavern", was one Bush's supporters, then that did it for me. Too funny!

[Career Prole]

20. Watch your backs, Dixie Chicks! Check out Dubya's entertainer line-up!

Taken directly from the websites of the celebrity stars fer bush!

The inimitable Mr. T. Bubba Somethingorother!


The Starpower of Bev "Rebo" Bergeron!


Give it up for the Hamden Family Circus!


Hey...I'd boycott 'em, but who the hell are they? :+

[underpants]

22. Rather slanted towards no names from Maryland/No.Virginia

I had no idea there were that many "entertainers" in Maryland.

I loved the "Set Designer". :eyes:

[Career Prole]

23. Oh, you mean Hollywood East?

Quite a few couldn't quite master the membership form, judging from the links. :D

[underpants]

27. Locals call it Bal'mer

:eyes:

[oasis]

35. Priceless.

:7

[Tabasco_Dave]

51. This is Bush's base

Fat rednecks, clowns and inbred circus people.

[fishface]

24. Don't forget that Alice Cooper is a big fan of Shrubs along

with Marylin Manson .hehehe

[Xenus Sister]

34. I want a cite for Marilyn Manson being a fan of Bush

Sorry, I'm having a hard time believing he's dumb enough to support Shrub. I'm not into his music, but he's a very smart man. If he does, or says he does, I'd bet, with no evidence of course, that he's doing it just to annoy the Republicans who hate him.

Come on, this is the man who said some of the most intelligent things in Bowling for Columbine.


That web site's a hoot btw.

[LTR]

46. I think he did it to boost his record sales

Depressing hard rock tends to sell well in bad times.

I doubt he's really a Bush supporter. And he did say some pretty intelligent things about the Columbine tragedy in Moore's flick.

[AmerDem]

25. They are mostly

Inbred, redneck country performers. Damn that music is awful!

[kwolf68]

26. ha ha

Ted Nugent-Rock and Roll star

In what decade? Certainly not this one. Ted is busy touring the County Fair circuit.

The rest of that crew is hapless.

Word of note...COncerning Johnny Ramone...he and a couple other punk artists (guy from the Dickies and one from the Misfits if im not mistaken) are being championed by young rightists in a new (lmao, choking) movement called "Conservative Punk" which is an oxymoron.

Whatever the case...If they want a "ROCK OFF" then bring it on. LMAO

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

28. A couple of favorites from the list...

below:

T. Bubba Bechtol
Comedian
You know, if Bubba's in his name, GWB is his game.

Brian Pike
Management
I didn't know "management" was entertainment...my job needs serious reclassification. MKJ

[underpants]

29. WHAT WE TELL THE SET DESIGNERS!?!?!?

Don Bywater
Set Design
Brentwood, Maryland

[Career Prole]

30. I just noticed how easy it seems to be to join...

http://www.entertainersforbush.com/Join.aspx
I may have some fun with this when I get to my other computer.
:evilgrin:

[wndycty]

31. They cannot even get their celebrities right

They list "Lisa Hasselbeck-cohost of “The View” "---however its Elisabeth Hasselbeck

[otohara]

32. Steve Tyler of Aerosmith

How odd, I know he quit drugs and alcohol, did he also become a born again?

Yick - not cool

[kwolf68]

33. He was always a prospect for the Republicans

Their music is among the most shallow in the history of rock n roll. Songs like "Love in an Elevator" and "Rag Doll" are not only boring, cliche', but completely empty of intellectual promise.

"Blowin' in the Wind" it is not. Entertainers that thrive on insipid cliche' oriented music are very solid candidates for the right...Kid Rock is another example.

Take artists like Dylan, Bruce, REM, Bad Religion, folks artists, etc...these folks pen lyrics that border on brilliant with a deep coviction to write highly intellectual and/or inspirational lyrics.

It's a far cry from "Boot Up Your Ass" Battle Hymns, but far more impressive. I'll take "our" entertainers ANY DAY OF THE week over that bilge from the right.

[graywarrior]

37. Tyler and Bush snorted together

[SmokeyTheBear]

who cares what entertainters think?>

38. Johnny Ramone?

I refuse to believe that any of the Ramones would ever be in support of Bush*!!!

[jmowreader]

40. Yeah, Johnny is a Rethug from way back

IIRC this was on WorldNetDaily--a piece written by Johnny about how haaaaard it is for a Republican punk rock musician to be taken seriously.

Johnny, the fact that "Republican" and "punk rock musician" are mutually exclusive terms may have something to do with that.

[hiphopnation]

39. Man that is one hell of a list.

I'm converted. I'm so there. I'd be honored to be part of a list like that.

[henslee]

41. I was thinkin the same thing... Good to lighten up '04 once in a while.

[LTR]

42. So what's PABAAH gonna say about this?

They're a freeper "boycott Hollywood" site that got mocked mercilessly on The Daily Show".

I won't post the link, since they don't (snicker) allow direct linking from DU.

[pstokely]

49. it's PABAAH.com

nt

[cheshire]

43. I see them but I don't know most of them. Nothings for a nothing pres.

move along, no news here.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

44. Sounds like the name of a strip club guide

I did see one dancer from Vegas on the list.

[hatrack]

47. This is a joke, right? Right?

My wife and I are sitting here busting our guts laughing, saying again and again (without conscious hype or hysteria) "Who?!?" "Who?!?"

Wow, this is truly feeble. :evilgrin:

[hatrack]

48. This is a joke, isn't it? Please, tell me this is a joke!!

We've been sitting here laughig out asses off (w/o any conscious attempt to hype the moment), as one word rings out over and over again - "Who?" "Who?" "Who?"

This, ladies and gentlemen, is the October Surprise - a full-on political blitzkrieg mounted by some of the finest family entertainment in the crucial Wheeling - Baltimore - Norfolk axis - where millions of swing voters stand ready to be swayed irresistable stand-up comedy!

[drmom]

50. OMG...Shon Blotzer supporting *!! It's over now for sure...

...why go on...

[Piperay]

52. Pat Boone...hehehe

*snort* Yeah, that will bring em in... ROTFLMAO

[auburngrad82]

53. Thank God!

I just looked at the list of "entertainers" and I don't have to stop watching television, going to movies, or attending live musical events or broadway type plays.

I was afraid they were really "entertainers". Turns out they're just members of the church choir.

[terrya]

54. This list is a complete joke. Jason Priestley is Canadian.

I rather doubt he would get involved in American politics.
