Julianne Moore Does Not Understand Sarah Palin
Yahoo! News Contributor Network ^ | February 15, 2012 | Mark Whittington

Julianne Moore, who does not so much portray as she caricatures former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin in an upcoming HBO documentary "Game Change," said about Palin's role in the 2008 election something very revealing about her.

Moore pronounced herself terrified of Palin, according to the Washington Examiner. Her presence on the ticket might well have swung the election to Sen. John McCain. And yet Moore does not think Palin was qualified to be vice president.

Moore could not help but be impressed with Palin. She pronounced her attractive and relatable. But Moore is also shocked at the showmanship aspect to politics. She also does not explain why she thinks Palin was not qualified to be vice president, especially as compared to the gaffe-prone current occupant of that office.

There are two reasons Moore can hold inside her head these conflicting thoughts. One, she is a self-confessed liberal Democrat. Two, she very likely stuck to the source material for the movie, which Big Hollywood suggests is inaccurate and filled with smears....

Of course a leftist Democrat cannot understand a Conservative. The right-thinking ideology is too far beyond the intellectual, ethical and moral capacity of the left. It’s like expecting a gnat to be able to master quantum physics.

Moore is a pro-choice activist and, during the 2004 presidential election, donated $2,000 to John Kerry’s presidential campaign,

so I wouldn’t expect her to relate to Sarah Palin AT ALL, Praise God.

Liberals cannot understand conservatives because they constantly do their best to misunderstand them, making it all the easier to stereotype them as something they’re not.

Can we all just look beyond her obvious bias in this portrayal and be honest. She is a terrible actress. You can almost see her eyes reading cue cards as she lifelessly recites lines in any movie. She is an all around terrible actress, makes movies no one watches and don’t make money. On top of that, she has lost her looks since Boogie Nights and it isn’t worth watching her just to ogle.

Not surprising and I wouldn't expect her to even try. Liberal Democrats think they have reached perfection in thought and deed. And her being in the artistic field of endeavor just cements her conviction.

That’s pretty much it, in a nutshell.

Liberal, Hollywood jackasses! Acting is nothing more than “lying”. So remember when the give out the “Best Actor / Best Actress” award at the Academy Awards this year, what they are telling us is who the “Best Male and Female Liar” is.

Thank you, Onyx...I was wondering who the heck Julianne Moore was and why I should care.

Sounds like I don’t need to worry...or care.

This is how liberals debate consevatives: They get actors to imitate the conservative then throw awards at the actor.

Was she shocked by this...?

Liberals don’t really understand anything, that’s why they’re liberals.

Oh yeah, she's a winner to come down on Sarah.

Married (nine years, no children), divorced, then two children out of wedlock, then married (afterwards) to the boyfriend who fathered the two children. Classy...NOT!
