I was actually planning on doing a DUFU about either the DUmmies or KOmmies biting their fingernails over the survival of public option in ObamaCare. Right now they are acting as if their very existence depends on public option remaining. However, I find the constant micro-analysis of each little nuance and twitch of the various Senators and Congress folks to be highly annoying. Like their self-absorbed neurosis was making me neurotic reading about it. Therefore I decided to go with the FUn THREAD, "Actors you were bummed to find out were Republican..." At least one of the actors mentioned actually surprised me since I would have never guessed him to be a Republican. So let us now watch the DUmmies get bummed out over Republican actors in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, reminding everybody that Lou Costello was a conservative Republican (really), is in the [brackets]:
Actors you were bummed to find out were Republican...
[John Wayne?]
Robert Downey, Jr.
Can't believe he went all Pro Bush...
[I have to admit this actually surprised me as well. Even more of a surprise than finding out that Richard Feynman was also a Republican.]
Tom Selleck. I thought he would be too smart for it.
[I figured Selleck for a conservative...which is why Rosie O'Donnell went nuts on him.]
Jimmy Stewart. From all his movies you got the idea that he was an empathetic humanist. He was a solid repub though.
[No surprise there. I already knew this about Jimmy.]
If he were alive today, I think he wouldn't still be a republcian.
[Somehow I can't picture Jimmy Stewart hanging out with the ACORN crowd.]
William Holden and Barbara Stanwyck... were two more old school republican, Eisenhower types
[William Holden was Best Man at Ronald Reagan's wedding. Barbara Stanwyck? She was the wife of Robert Taylor who testified in Congress about the Reds in Hollywood.]
Bruce Willis, Dennis Hopper
[And Willis had the sense to ditch that airhead Demi Moore.]
wow, would not have expected Dennis Hopper that is sad
[May we send you a consolation card?]
Patricia Heaton. I absolutely despise her since I found out she's a Republican. Especially after I read some of the comments she has made. Blech!!! That's the only one that bothers me. Don't have any negative feelings about the others I know of who are Republican.
[Send her to The Hague for political Thought Crimes.]
I can't watch her anymore. She is a good comedic actress. However, once I know something like that, it just destroys my image of them.
[Is Playboy Playmate Petra Verkaik a Republican? Somehow I don't think her politics would be my main concern if I ever happen to bump into her.]
Robert Duvall. he's a REAL asshole, too. smug, arrogant, uber macho prick. so that makes it easier to loathe him, unlike Downey, who I've always liked a lot can't believe he swings that way must've been all the drugs
[Was Gabby Hayes a Republican? That knowledge would greatly influence how I perceive Roy Rogers movies.]
What??? Robert Downey Jr.?? Is that true? I had not heard that. My wife will be crushed when she hears this -- he is one of her favorite actors.
[Your wife will have to retire her bong pipe.]
Clint Eastwood
[Kind of hard to think of Dirty Harry as a kneejerk liberal.]
Stallone. Who coulda guessed?
[Easy to guess that when you watch the Rocky Balboa movies.]
Gary Sinese
[No surprise there. And I've been a big fan of his since watching him in "True West." A great play.]
John Voight
[No surprise now but years ago I sort of had him pegged for a liberal.]
Jim Caviezel
[Jesus was a Republican. Remember that.]
Mary Tyler Moore told Parade last year how much she loves Bill O'Reilly and said she'd campaign for McCain/Palin if asked
[FUn Fact: Morey Amsterdam from the Dick Van Dycke show was a big supporter of Ronald Reagan.]
Adam Sandler shattered my illusions.
[Another Republican. I loved him as Dave Buzznik in "Anger Management." Was Dr. Buddy Rydell also a Republican?]
Phyllis Diller.
[Bob Hope must have rubbed off on her.]
Here is a list of them: MEATLOAF? And, Cindy Williams of Lavern & Shirley
[I never thought about it before but Meatloaf's political leanings surprises me as well.]
R. Lee Ermey is a Republican?!
[How could you possibly think that Sgt. Hartman would be a liberal Democrat?]
Micky Dolenz of the Monkees. He apparently appeared as a headline act at a teabag event in Texas. Bummer.
[Peter Tork?]
Drew Carey. Majorly bummed about that
[Then I better not tell you about Lou Costello.]
>> Mary Tyler Moore <<
Actually, that was Marilyn Quayle. :^)
IBTP?
“John Voight”
The guy who sold George Costanza a car?
Top 10!
Bow!
PING!
These people really see the world upside down. They think Robert Duvall is arrogant, yet they probably think Sean Penn and Tim Robbins are humble and thoughtful.
Top 20?
The Dentist?
You Bet!
;-)
Present
Meatloaf always was a wild and an untamed thing.
Of course, that makes him a match with Sarah Palin.
I think James Woods is also conservative.
Drew Carey is a Libertarian, not a GOPbot.
I wonder if they realize that a lot of us often ponder how the heck anyone could call what the trash talk that the Marxist in Hollywood spew as liberal. There is nothing liberating about worshiping dear leader. There is nothing liberating about a government that is so large that it causes you fear. There is nothing liberating about having so little faith in yourself that you think big brother should take care of you. Face it there is nothing liberating about what the media calls liberal thought. It’s all just fascism.
“Drew Carey. Majorly bummed about that”

Isn’t Drew Carey a retired Marine?
Top 20!
Get a laptop.
I just bought a Toshiba Satellite laptop. List price- $429, I got the 2-year warranty and a disc of Norton anti-virus.
No, sometimes Jon misspells his name just for the hell of it. Like me. I occasionally spell Xarguna with an 'X'.
