Hypocrites Illustrated
Amazing a who's, who of liberal celebrities that say American's are spoiled and need to do more to help the poor, American CEO's are greedy and overpaid, and let's not forget the ever popular statement "Republican Policies are shrinking the middle class while increasing the number of people living below poverty."
Outrageous Celebrity Homes
Hey!!! Oprah!!! here's a thought, you do such a great job of getting corporations to donate to help various needy families while taking the credit yourself, how about setting an example, selling that palace, or better yet turn it in to a homeless shelter and moving your arse into typical 2700 sq. ft. middle class suburban home?

Holy ****! Will Smith's home is the size of a small shopping mall. Oprah made her fortune off of dumb ass people who want to follow rather than lead.

I can't fault the Playboy mansion built in 1927. Plus I don't think I've ever heard Playboy complain about the enviroment or other major issues like these other Hollywood Liberal elites.

Oh yeah these "Stars" act like some sort of "High Caliber Royalty" and are given a Bully Pulpit to Sing Their Liberal Songs on all the live-long-day while you and me are kept like rarely bothered with pets.
We Employ Hollywood just like we Employ Congress .... we remember that and THEY Keep Forgetting.
It is no different than when about 200 of Hollywood's Elite hosted a "Dinner" at a 200 Star Hotel Restaurant .....
The "Premise Was", that 1/3 would eat a 200 Star 10 Course $10,000 Dollar Meal, 1/3 would eat a Common Man's Middle Class Meal (what a slur to Working People), and the Last 1/3 would eat what a Homeless Person would eat (of course served up by the 200 Star Chefs at the 200 Star Hotel).
So for a couple of hours, they pretended to be fcking something by eating a protest meal ..... when you figure it out, please let me know since they went back home to the kind of house in the Photo Above sans any Homeless People with them ????
I guess I partially understand ..... when I play GTA San Andreas, sometimes I get in the big Jumbo Jet in Las Venturas and fly it back to San Andreas and then fly it into the tallest building in San Andreas ..... it always makes reeking sick at my stomach, but it keeps the hatred burning strong for those bastards that did this on September 11th.
Give it a try some time if you have the game San Andreas and if it doesn't make you want to puke, then you will learn a lot about your self from a freakin' video game.

It is amazing the "outrage" at corporate salary and bonus, but nary a dither about celebrity excess.

Yes, people curse the poor smucks selling $8 popcorn and $6 soda's but the cost to distribute first run movies (to pay Clooney et al $20million per movie) means virtually no profit on $10 tickets for movie theater owners. They have to pay the bills some way.
