Commies from Hollywood
007 and North Korea James Hirsen THE LEFT COAST REPORT A Political Look at Hollywood
Sounding like a villain out of a 007 movie, North Korea urged the United States to quit showing the most recent James Bond flick.
The Secretariat of the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Fatherland called the latest Bond installment a "dirty and cursed burlesque aimed to slander and insult the Korean nation." So says the Korean Central News Agency.
Apparently, the brouhaha occurred because, in some scenes of the film "Die Another Day," Bond is tortured by North Korean agents.
The Secretariat of the Committee also said that the film proves the U.S. is "the root cause of all disasters and misfortune of the Korean nation" and is "an empire of evil." Gee, commies are so original. The Left Coast Report says just because North Korea has a director's chair and Marxist megaphone doesn't make it a film critic.
100 Hollywood Half-wits
A hundred Hollywood celebrities have signed a letter to President Bush about U.S. military intervention in Iraq.
Of course, in Tinseltown, everything's a production. Even the jotting of a celebrity note involves lights, cameras and action.
To trumpet their little piece of presidential correspondence, the stars called a press conference. The media dutifully showed up.
Many of the celebs involved are on Hollywood's list of "B" actors. The collection of characters unveiled a new organization. They thought they'd come up with a clever name for the group ` "Artists United to Win Without War." The only problem is the acronym, AUWWW, makes them sound like a bunch of 3-year-olds who've stubbed their toes.
The letter to the president says that "Saddam Hussein cannot be allowed to possess weapons of mass destruction."
But it also states, "There is no need for war. Let us instead devote our resources to improving the security and well-being of people here at home and around the world."
Just makes you want to say "AUWWW" all the more, doesn't it?
Co-chairs Mike Farrelland Robert Greenwald have been hitting the radio and TV talk show circuit, filling the airwaves with their harebrained attempts at geopolitics.
So why does the Bush administration need to hang a military threat over the head of Saddam Hussein? Well, faux "West Wing" president Martin Sheen seems to have it all figured out.
"I think he'd like to hand his father Saddam Hussein's head and win his approval for what happened after the 1991 Gulf War," Sheen speculated. Apparently, the actor's a faux shrink too.
This may be just another example of a Hollywood celebrity spouting off, but the implication is truly monstrous: that the president, along with Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Powell and others, would sacrifice human life for petty pride.
The Left Coast Report points out that the haughty hundred didn't seem to have anything to say when Serbia was bombed into the Stone Age and Iraq was mottled with "Monica" bombs.
Belafonte and Glover Featured on Radio Havana
Banana-Boat Harry Belafonte and Danny Glover Duck-and-Cover are at it again.
It's been reported that the two have accused the Bush administration of pressuring Hollywood into making war movies and violent films.
The actors theorize that it's all part of an ongoing effort by Bush and company to promote the administration's war machine. They say that because Hollywood is controlled by large corporations, war movies and violent films are shaped by the "interests of the Pentagon and the White House."
The duo's comments were reported by Radio Havana. Both were in Havana, Cuba, attending a film festival.
Belafonte, who apparently thinks Fidel Castro is fantastico, told the press that Sept. 11 gave President Bush an excuse to implement plans "to control the world militarily, economically and culturally."
The Left Coast Report thinks the comedy act of Belafonte and Glover could really use a straight man

"Yes Helen, yes you were."
ROFLMAO
But you're right. Hell, I've wasted countless hours trying to gather facts so I could make an intelligent analysis or decision. But, like you, I think I'll just email Mike "We Hollyweird perverts are the only Enlightened Species on Earth" Farrell to see which way he's leaning. And my decision will be made.
One of our signs at the Columbia MO Infinite FReep (Counter protest of a severely anti American group)is "Whatever they are for this week, I'm against."
I cannot understand why these Hollyweird types always blame America for every evil in the world and love commie/terrorist types.
