"I'm scared. I'm f***ing scared out of my pants right now, and if you're not, wake up." The actress Rosie Perez was pouring out her heart Saturday night to a crowd of artists, performers, activists, and partygoers gathered at the Chelsea nightclub Crobar. "My heart is broken," Perez continued. "My heart is broken by this administration. I'm f***ing scared, and I'm mad as hell."
Perez never explained precisely what she was scared of. She even confused the audience a bit when she said, "I really don't care who wins the election." But she said she was deeply concerned with "the issues," and that concern left her very, very frightened.
She wasn't alone. "This guy Bush makes Barry Goldwater look like Pollyanna," said comedian Chevy Chase. "He's frightening. He's scaring the crap out of me."
And the musician Marc Anthony Thompson (also known as "Chocolate Genius") said the current political situation had jolted him out of complacency and into a new age of activism. "I've been sitting on my lazy ass watching Maury Povitch," Thompson told the crowd. "Then I decided to get my lazy ass out on the f***ing streets."
Perez, Chase, Thompson, and others had come to Crobar to kick off the Imagine Festival, which is billed by its organizers as an attempt to "use art, not politics or protest, to confront the critical issues facing the nation." Festival spokesman say they will stage nearly 200 events in New York during the Republican National Convention. Among the celebrities who will participate, according to organizers, are Richard Gere, E.L. Doctorow, Yoko Ono, Margaret Cho, Lou Reed, Gloria Steinem, Marisa Tomei, and others.

Whiney little children with potty mouths.
From their limited vocabulary, one can see why JF'nK is their choice.
Wow..can you just feel the love in the room.......
At least these people are too smart to be scared by all the trumped up Republican rumors that Islamo-Fascists want to kill everyone.
This is really funny stuff, if you can imagine hearing it in Rosie Perez' voice.

Classic case of another liberal MANIC over reacting. Like a bipolar nutjob displaying extreme high and low mood swings blowing a situation way out of proportion. Pity the little girl and her dysfunctional ilk.
What's significant here is that these peole are scared. They don't really know why, they are just driven by their emotions. Scared people who can't think rationally are the last people you want when there is a crisis. Fear morphs into anger and hatred and that's what we have here. So they speak out - they don't worry about being rationale, they just shout and stamp their feet. Thankfully, adults are in charge.
Imagine them scared for 4 more years. Schadenfreude
Don't fret, Chevy. All available evidence suggests that your personal stores of same remain far from depleted.

Frankly they flatter themselves to assume people like me give a rats back about them. Yeah, like I'm really going to go after them. Not in this life time honey. Give them enough rope and they eventually hang themselves.
"Chocolate Genius," eh?
"We sat there...unable to think."--John Kerry's recollection of 9/11.
He was probably sitting on his lazy a** watching Maury Povich.
Sounds better this way...
"I'm stuned. I'm f***ing stuned out of my pants right now, and if you're not, wake up." The actress Rosie Perez was pouring out her heart Saturday night to a crowd of artists, performers, activists, and partygoers gathered at the Chelsea nightclub Crobar. "My beeber is broken," Perez continued. "My beeber is broken by this administration. I'm f***ing stuned, and I'm dumb as hell."
Is it just me or do the protestors, celebrities and everyday hippies actually **help** Bush in the election? They (the protestors) seem so "out-there" that everyday people may associate Skerry with them (He is a dolt but I doubt he is as crazy as some of the lunatics they were showing at the NYC protests).
Mommy, mommmy theres a Republican under the bed !!!!
If the most frightening thing in these malcontent lives is a Republican Administration it says quite a bit of how sheltered and cocooned they are from reality. I mean physically of course- it is without debate that they are mentally cocooned from reality. They want fright- try imagining Michael Moore in speedos.
