Our government is yet again marching us towards a war of choice in the Middle East and our non-partisan, peace-loving celebrities have gone missing since late 2008. We fear the worst.

1. Sheryl Crow LAST KNOWN PRE-2009 COMMUNICATION: “I think war is based in greed and there are huge karmic retributions that will follow. I think war is never the answer to solving any problems. The best way to solve problems is to not have enemies.” — Sheryl Crow

2. Bruce Springsteen LAST KNOWN PRE-2009 COMMUNICATION: “War. What is it good for? Absolutely nothing.” — Bruce Springsteen

Barbra Streisand Barbra Streisand LAST KNOWN PRE-2009 COMMUNICATION: “You know, really good artists have a way of being relevant in their time — but great artists are relevant at any time.

War, what is it good for? Same can be applied to “the boss”. Rages against the system but capitalism sure seems to have done him some good. Same can be said for “one sheet” sheryl.

I almost died laughing a couple days ago when I saw Obama say:
And for those who want a diplomatic solution - well, we tried that.

Buzzfeed has realized that liberal hypocrisy provides an abundance of comic material.

I got a good laugh out of this list. I can almost remember seeing every single one of these idiots on tv whining a few years ago.

Are the Twitter feeds burning up? Ordinarily you can’t get an out of work liberal celebrity to get off Twitter.

Of course, it could be just coincidental that they all all keeping their yaps shut because they wish that someone like Barak Obama (one of them) would exercise absolute power.

How they love their dictators.

In Neil Young's defense:

He was a supporter of Reagan and wrote "Let's Roll" in praise of the brave citizens aboard Flight 93.

Not long after that he had an aneurysm.

It was not until they cut out part of his brain that he became a liberal.
