Just think, with all that money they gave to Obama’s campaign, really could have helped a lot of Americans with food and keeping their homes!

And why all of a sudden is voting so important to them? These rich idiots need to remember that they are only ‘actors’ and not God. So please, go back to your fancy mansions and nutty lifestyles and shut up. Besides, what do they know about what really goes on in the world. They or their bratty kids don’t go fight for our country, so why should they have any say in a President.

This is so funny that it’s sick. How affraid are the left winged hollywood retards that Palin in one month has massed more popularity then they have their hole careers? Almost all TV shows and News channels are in the tank for Obama. Can anyone tell me just exactly one good thing that Obama has done for this country?

I’m SO glad I saw this (over the top!)PSA!!Yes, we need these vapid,self-absorbed, rich lemmings to tell us to vote. You KNOW it’s all they can do not to yell out, “for obama!” We are well aware, here in the REAL world, that we have to vote. The day any intelligent human cares what ‘hollywood’ thinks about our voting, or about for whom to vote,is the day it’s all over!

LOL…I’m sure. I think he probably needs to get his head out of that “hole” and attempt to talk using basic social skills.

Jason - LOL! My husband and I are are laughing our heads off right now! What does basic economics have to do with this ad? Maybe you should stop, READ and think about the issue before reacting emotionally.

Amy. From reading your post, it is obvious you have no concept of basic economics. I doubt you even finished high school. You are probably mind 40s, chronically overweight, low-income, single. It hurts doesn’t it? It’s because you know it’s all true. Go crawl into a hole and do the world a favor.

Give me a break! “You should vote if you care about the economy, the right to choose, gay rights, global warning, polar bears…” Is Hollywood that concerned that Obama won’t win? “Please…send this to 5 friends - please!!!!” My gosh. I guess this is what happens when celebrities max out their donations to a candidate. They give FREE advertisement.
