Over-the-hill singer and self-appointed celebrity pundit Harry Belafonte appeared at a peace rally in Oakland, California, on Saturday, April 5, 2003, stating, "We stand here today at the beginning of a new movement to take America back to the place where it rightfully belongs," adding that he is against each and every war in which America has participated. Mr. Belafonte, however, seems to have forgotten -- or has never been smart enough to have learned -- the fact that those who have given their lives in American conflicts are the ones, among many, who have enabled him to speak his mind freely. Perhaps Mr. Belafonte would rather that America should still be under the rule of the British monarchy. Or, perhaps, he would rather that he and his progeny should still be living in America under the oppressive and immoral rule of slavery; maybe he wants the "N" word to apply to him. Or, maybe he would prefer to be living under the thumb of a fascist regime such as those of Adolph Hitler, Josef Stalin and Saddam Hussein. Aparently, Mr. Belafonte feels that he, as well as all Americans, would live a much more fruitful and happy life under the total control of some truly evil and tyrranical dictator. He's always welcome to vote for a democrap politician for President. And he's always welcome to leave the country and go live in, say, Iraq - or France, for that matter.
Mr. Belafonte is not the only self-appointed celebrity pundit attempting to speak for me of late. However, these celebrities have abused their access to the public spotlight. I, among many, am well capable of excogitating my own opinion of world affairs without having to be bothered by those who professionally grovel for my attention and MONEY attempting to brainwash me with their whacko liberal commie blather. Please, BarBRA, Janeane, Martin, Cher, Sean, Alec, George, Mike and all the rest of you 4-year-olds with IQs below room temperature, keep your nose out of my face, and keep your place. You have a right to speak, which I support, but that does not mean that I have to listen, and I choose NOT....
It is interesting to note that a great number of these overly self-important and self-righteous war protestors have forgotten -- or, perhaps, went through the public education system and were never taught -- that, while they do have the right to speak freely, they do not have the right to be heard!!! Accordingly, I shall continue to support the right of Mr. Belafonte and these people to speak their minds by speaking mine and supporting President Bush and our men and women throughout the world who have volunteered to DIE so that we all may speak freely. I will, however, no longer support the self-appointed celebrity pundits with my money, a right afforded me under the American free enterprise system. I will no longer buy their CDs, go see their movies or watch their television programs. Additionally, I will no longer support them, by refusing to buy any of their advertisers' products. POINT -- The Way urges all who are aware and tired of these others attempting to think and speak for them to do the same - stop giving your hard-earned dollars to them. Stop buying their stuff. It's as simple as that.
One of these celebrity putzes appeared recently on TV, indignant that the public would "fight back" by refusing to support them, by refusing to buy their "art," as if these putzes had a right to have the masses unthinkingly support them. (How un-PC for us to speak with our wallets -- how disrespectful!) Perhaps the celebs should go back to school and insist on being taught a civics class. They would then learn that they do NOT have a right to our money -- only the democraps believe that they do! Only by withholding it will we make them think twice about spewing their blather in public. They should stick to their craft and leave the opining to each and every one of us. In other words, "Mind your own business," and leave the rest of us to ours, as we do not have to fall in step with these feebs and dullards. We all have the right to speak. No one has the right to be heard!
During the last Presidential election, two celebrities, in particular, made noteworthy statements. Both Cher and BarBRA Streisand stated publicly that they would give up their United States citizenship and leave America permanently if George W. Bush won. Despite the best efforts of the immoral liberal left to steal the election, regardless of the laws in place, for which they voted, to prevent such a thing, Mr. Bush rightfully did win, as we all now know. Well, Cher and BarBRA, I'm still waiting.... When are you going to have the courage of your convictions and prove the value, if any, of your word? Please, make America greater and do us all a favor by leaving the country, permanently, now! I hear that Saddam is looking for someone new to torment. And, Mr. Belafonte, please, go with them!
