Well, McCain's Hollywood celebrity fundraiser is an unfair comparison in that McCain only got B-list celebrities...

I thought Pat Boone was dead...  ;>)

I thought Pat Boone was dead...  ;>)

His career is dead - he's been reduced to doing reverse mortgage commercials on cable channels.

In addition to the Snake Eater, Joe Buck and Raymond's wife, I've also heard that Sonny Corleone and the original Incredible Hulk were there.

I turned down tickets to a Pat Boone concert a few years back. The show was in a high school auditorium and it would have cost $35. For $60 I could have seen the concert and had dinner after with Pat.

Christ, I'm sounding like HissyFit.

Pat is in the process of reviving his career. His doing golden oldies christian rap. He has a 2 hour live gig planed which is going to be bradcast on BET. I am also starting a country rap band myself. I have legally changed my name to 3pac Yocum. I googled insipid and a pic of Boone popped up. What the hell was the topic anyway?

You wish, Worrierking. You would have needed a backstage mint julep with Pat Boone that was interrupted by Alan Cranston and Yasser Arafat. That's when the sh*t hit the fan!

For $60 I could have seen the concert and had dinner after with Pat.

I went...and later I got drunk on the $60 they paid me.  ;>)

I saw Henrix, Credance, Stepenwolf, and I cant even remember who else for $15.00. I was so stoned, Pat hemself could have been there jammin with Hendrix. flashbackflashbackflashbackflashbackflashback..................................

And while Barack Obama has the majority of Hollywood backing his candidacy, McCain had his own small cadre of celebs in attendance tonight. Among those that were spotted:

Stephen Baldwin
Pat Boone
Wilford Brimley
Dean Cain
Jon Cryer
Robert Duvall
Angie Harmon
Patricia Heaton
Lorenzo Lamas
Craig T. Nelson
Gail O'Grady
Jason Sehorn
Gary Sinise
Jon Voight

Wow!! What a list!! The only one i'm surprised at is Patricia Heaton. As far as i'm concerned the rest, expecially Duvall and Voight, can go spit.  

Voight was tramatized in the theater scene in Midnight Cowboy. In the first take the role was reversed.

McCain got some baroness to support him !!

Zsa Zsa Gabor has given McCain over $70,000...

She and McCain recently had a few laughs in Las Vegas and recalled the raucus times they had there in the 1950s.

Wolf, I saw the Baroness being interviewed by Greta Van Whatserface tonight. She's a 54 year old lifelong Dem (she says) who reached the age when fear and greed override common sense in weaker humans, and is encouraging white working class women to vote in her best interests.

Of course, she didn't say that. She said that the Dems have moved too far to the left, and Grampy is the best pick to reach across the aisle, and take on the GOP. Huh?

If McCain and the Republican party are this afraid of Hollywood it's no wonder they're sh*tting their pants over every 2 bit jihadist.  The right can't even handle Matt Damon.  What makes them think they can handle bin Laden?

bin laden has been seen in the oval office with bush wearing a blue dress.

"Let me tell you my friends," Mr. McCain said, "there's no place I'd rather be than here with the working men and women of Ohio."

Let me tell you, Mr. Chairman of the Commerce Committee, as one of the out of work men and women of Ohio--BITE ME! I hold you, Bush, Graham, Boehner, and all the rest of the deregulate for the rich crowd responsible. Four years ago when things first started getting bad here you folks came into this state time and time again promising to rebuild our economy. We gave you our votes and you gave us a whole lot of nothing. Now things are worse and you’re back making the same promises. Why, oh why, should we buy this crap from you again?

The way I see it, by supporting Obama, Barbara Streisand’s doing more for my family and friends than the Republicans have.

Hell, Midnight...

The Cons have been doing it to us for the last 30 years--not just the last four.

They've achieved their objective.  The middle class has been decimated.

I should probably clarify that John McCain sang the preceeding was at the end of his appearance in Ohio, to counter Babs' fundraiser performance in CA.

this is the typical brain dead stupidity that passes for "commentary".  hello?   i don't give one flying **** who he chats with at a fund raiser, where it's held, or if he drank a glass of wine or a beer.  i want someone capable of running the government, not some bumbling idiot who can cut the fool down at the local gin joint.   [as in george bush]    this is why sarah palin was such a terrible choice.  i don't care if she's a hockey mom, or where she bought her glasses, she's unfit to hold the office of president.   that's why they're keeping her away from the press.  they don't want her revealing how shallow her knowledge is.   even a conservative like columnist david brooks says she's not fit. 

palin and bush, in particular, are the perfect example of governing by the theory of let business run the country because they know best.   except you tend to end up with things like the stock market crash of 1929, the result of letting people buy on margin, the savings and loan debacle of the reagan years and this week's takeovers of institutions once thought too big to fail.  meanwhile the directors walk away with multimillions and the bill for damages is added to our ever spiraling national debt. 

I'm tired of all this criticism of Sarah Palin...

I don't care if she is a hockey puck!  She's just a mom, trying to do right.  Is that so wrong?  Her kid got knocked up.  What's she supposed to do?

She can see all the way to Alaska, and she's trying to keep an eye on Putie.  Give 'er a break!

That's why Bristol is pregnant.  She's been keeping an eye on the wrong putie. 

Do you suppose Sarah's two oldest children will end up going to college?

What fer? Liberal Indoctrination and learnin'?
