An Open Letter to Meryl Streep
US Defense Watch ^ | January 9, 2017 | Ray Starmann

Posted on 01/09/2017 6:15:04 PM PST by pboyington

Dear Ms. Streep,

Congratulations on your award last night. You’ve had a long and successful career. Bravo for you. I’m sorry to say, I personally don’t like your films or your acting, but I guess I’m just another deplorable who watches football and “mixed” martial arts when John Wayne movies aren’t on TV.

In typical Hollywood tradition, you used your moment in the spotlight on stage to bash President-Elect Trump and soon to be President Trump.

As Jackie Gleason said, “How sweet it is…”

Your little tirade on stage consisted of a myriad of criticisms launched against Mr. Trump. In true liberal fashion, they were filled with emotion and fury and signified nothing.

You couldn’t help bringing up the Birther issue could you? Well, let’s examine some facts. Barack Obama took several years to produce his birth certificate. Most Americans, when asked, will either have a copy of theirs in a file cabinet at home, or will simply request the county where they were born to mail them a photocopy. Strangely, the hunt for Barack Obama’s birth certificate became something tantamount to the search for Bigfoot.

When the President produced his birth certificate many experts believed that it was indeed a fake and printed out not on a 1961 typewriter, but on a modern day computer using a Microsoft Word font, strangely called, ‘typewriter.’

Imagine that…

Most interestingly, President Obama’s college and law school transcripts are locked up under court order. He is the only President in recent memory who refuses to release his academic records to the press. I wonder why…

You quickly segwayed into the issue of immigration, by pointing out several foreign born actors in the audience. President-Elect Trump is not interested in the immigration status of Dev Patel or Ryan Gosseling. He is interested in the immigration status of nearly 12 million illegals from Mexico and Latin America who have seized American blue collar jobs and subsequently driven down wages.

Mr. Trump’s call for a temporary ban on immigration from countries that breed terrorists like rabbits, such as Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan and Pakistan would have no effect on the audience at the Golden Globes, unless, perhaps, Amy Adams is working for the IRA.

I think we’re all fairly certain that Ryan Gosseling isn’t a member of ISIS. But, how is the nation supposed to vet hundreds of thousands of undocumented single males from the Middle East. It is a task that is fundamentally impossible. That is a fact, Ms. Streep, whether you or the Hollywood liberal community wish to accept it or not.

It is the job of the President of the United States to protect this nation from all threats, foreign and domestic, not to bow to the whims and emotional vacillations of a post-menopausal actress, who has had several glasses of Chablis, courtesy of the Beverly Hilton and Merv Griffin’s estate.

You then proceeded to verbally accost President-Elect Trump for making comments about a disabled reporter. Yet, Mr. Trump continues to disavow that story entirely to this day. Speaking of disabled and mentally challenged people, where were you when the story broke concerning the four African American thugs in Chicago who tortured a mentally challenged 18 year old white man?

Did you find that acceptable behavior because he was white and therefore possibly a Trump supporter?

Naturally, you stated that you were against any forms of violence, yet your party was instigating violence at Trump rallies across the nation, through paid professional anarchists and sundry criminals financed by George Soros. You might remember a certain Project Veritas video where the DNC’s nefarious plans to incite anarchy were laid at the doorstep of the American people.

I have to admit I agree with you that the nation needs what you deemed a ‘principled press.’ Unfortunately, the mainstream media is neither principled nor journalists anymore. They are nothing more than lackeys, paid hacks, kowtowing to whatever directive emanates from the White House.

I also agree with you that we need a Committee to Protect Journalists. Of course that committee could have helped the journalists that were being targeted and imprisoned by President Obama who seemed to have declared war on the press and whistleblowers.

Undoubtedly, Ms. Streep, you are still suffering from what ABC Sports once called ‘the agony of defeat.’

Perhaps, when you’re alone and counting one of your 15 million dollar paychecks, you might reflect on the fact that Mr. Trump won the election because Americans are hurting. Nearly 95 million Americans are out of the workforce, 50 million are living in poverty and 47.5 million are on food stamps.

The average American doesn’t have the luxury of pondering the issues of our time over a glass of Dom Perignon like you do. They’re in a battle day and night, 24/7 to put food on the table while working three lousy jobs because your President and your party are a trainwreck for this nation.

So instead of giving a pedophile rapist like Roman Polanski a standing ovation, like the one you gave him at the 2003 Oscars, you might want to give the nation of working deplorables who buy tickets to your films that they can’t afford a standing ovation.

You, Ms. Streep, like the majority of the creative community in Hollywood need a serious reality check. You need to come down off your cross on Mulholland Drive and mine some coal, drive a truck and stock some shelves at Walmart with the rest of the country.

Get used to saying President Trump.

How sweet it is!

Boycott all of the Hollywood Trump blasters.

Once upon a time it used to be conventional wisdom that an 'entertainer' shouldn't go to far out on a political limb' because the other side buys tickets/music/trinkets etc. too.... or potentially could. Today I never attend or buy anything where I'm not in relative tune with the artist, business etc..... If an 'artist' chooses to remain silent, fine. But if they choose to go out on that limb and their views are not in line with mine, my fingers hang on to my shekels with an iron grip.

I especially hate it when British actors feel they can lecture us on what is the right course for us. It’s laughable. The Brits never got us and never will. The Signers of the Declaration of Independence must be rolling in their graves.

Those Hollywood thespian thugs think they are somehow smarter, more educated, more moral, more altruistic than the rest of us! They honestly think they have the right to instruct us on what is good for us.

“Her career was already on the downward direction.”
Yes it’s been decades since she was awarded an Oscar for portraying a woman who deserted her child.

Love it.

Also, remember as a FReeper so wonderfully put it yesterday that Meryl has NO PROBLEMS killing the inconvenient special needs person. Not a problem for her if they were all chosen to be aborted. So I’m not sure why she is so worried about this adult being mocked. I’d rather be mocked than killed.

An "open letter" to Streep doesn't need to be anything more than this:

Sit down, STFU, no one cares what you think.
