Very informative post. In short, the more “stuff” you buy, the more you pay. Sounds fair to me.

It would certainly most affect the Hollywood elite who think nothing of spending thousands upon thousands for a pair of shoes!

Teri Hatcher may not want her political views known to maintain her acting career, but truth be known she did donate $2,300 to Mr. Obama’s campaign. Sorry Teri, cat’s out of the bag.

Yes, I agree. I very rarely go to the movies and seldom buy DVD’s. Probably just cheap, but I do think about and try to find out what the gist of the movie is before I consider watching it. But, Bruce Willis, Gary Sinise, and Leah Reminy are all republicans. And of course, there’s Fred! but I bet he’ll never get another role, TV or anything else! way too conservative.

Please don’t spend your money to support lefties who act, write, or sing.

If you want more information about Hollywood conservatives you might want to check out Robert Avrech's blog Seraphic Secret. He is a screenwriter.

The Hollywood Unions are just as bad. They always wanted us to support the Democrat candidate because they are (supposedly ) for the working class. Yeah Right!

Thanks Dee, by the way the link you gave me doesn’t work.
Incognito, you know more than anyone what it must be like to be a conservative actress. Keep chosing those battles wisely.

I just did a post about this as well… as an actress, though not based in Hollywood, I have always kept my politics to myself, because I know how much republicans are hated in the entertainment industry. There is a great amount of fear in revealing one’s politics… I have, every once in a while, had to say something about a particular issue, but I choose my battles carefully.

And, as Surnow insinuated, there is a secret society of sorts.. it’s harder to determine who the conservative rank and file actors are because they have more to lose. Actors are a dime a dozen and we have less leverage than a star with box office appeal.
