Alec Baldwin: Good-bye, Public Life
Vulture.com ^ | 2/23/2014 | Alec Baldwin

Posted on 02/23/2014 8:43:55 PM PST by Beave Meister

As told to Joe Hagan.

I flew to Hawaii recently to shoot a film, fresh on the heels of being labeled a homophobic bigot by Andrew Sullivan, Anderson Cooper, and others in the Gay Department of Justice. I wanted to speak with a gay-rights group that I had researched and admired, so I called its local Honolulu branch.

The office number turned out to be some guy’s cell phone. I left him a message—I said, “I’m from out of town, I’m visiting Hawaii on business, I’d like to get some information on your group.” After two or three more calls, he answered the phone. I said, “Yeah, I’m the guy that called about your organization.” And he said, somewhat impatiently, “Okay, well, what did you want?” I said, “Well, let me put it to you this way, Nick. Your name is Nick? Nick, let me begin by asking you a question. Who would you say, by your estimation, is the most homophobic member of the entertainment industry currently in the media?” And he paused for a long count of four and said, “Um … Alec Baldwin?”

And I said, “Ding, ding, ding, ding! Bingo, Nick, bingo! That’s who you’re talking to.” He said, “C’mon!”

I said, “Nick, I want to come in and talk.”

Perhaps one of the most pathetic narcissistic rants ever written. Did Baldwin actually think his liberal friends were trustworthy? If he did, he is even dumber than his politics.

Read the article and typical liberal blames everyone else for his problems and for being a five star d-bag.

There is no mercy for the left. Another “useful idiot” has met the meat grinder and he doesn’t know what to do.

Well, Alec is certainly wallowing in pity for himself, but at a few points, he is the proverbial blind squirrel who finds the nut.

The self anointed gay rights champions, and the sheep media who bleat what the former tells them, are indeed out of control and ready to destroy anyone at the slightest hint of heresy. Get on the wrong side, and you are face the modern, secular equivalent of an Inquisition. All that is missing is the thumbscrews.

I suspect Baldwin’s scoop on how MSNBC runs is probably accurate, too. Maddow is their only marketable personality, so she probably is the real power behind the throne there, so to speak.

He was leaving the country if Bush got elected. He's still here stinking up the place.

He doesn’t like gays. But it’s not fashionable to dislike gays as a Liberal.

What to do?

Self-absorbed, petulant twaddle.

Baldwin has always been high on my list of most disgusting
examples of humanity.

Baldwin is not as bad as the press make him out. I rather think he’s too conservative for their likes.

He is heterosexual with a wife and baby he adores. He’s a loyal father. He has his beliefs and opinions but he works within the American system. He’s a good citizen who pays his bills, his taxes.

Our system is supposed to allow for freedom of beliefs. The press has tormented the guy into reacting for headlines.

It sucks to be famous these days.

He’s mad at the libs for his PC public shunning but in the end he still can’t stop himself from blaming Fox.

Piers Morgan and Alec Baldwin in a single, soul-stirring evening? I’m cracking a beer. Bottoms up, Alec! Oh, wait...
