[StellaBlue]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Republican_celebrities

Very interesting stuff.

Tony Danza?

Kurt Russell??

Kelsey Grammer???

Dr. Phil ?!?!?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Maybe I am just WAAAY behind the times here... been living away from the USA for a while, but.... hmmm

[yorkiemommie1]

1. I will never forget how nasty Dr. Phil was

to one of his guests, from Code Pink, on the runup to the invasion of Iraq. I boycott his show now.

edited to correct spelling.

[marbuc]

4. I boycott Dr. Phil's show

because it is terrible.

[GRLMGC]

12. true that, man

haha

[muchacho]

66. I also boycott the blubbering bubba

[Deep N RedLand]

7. Dr. Phil = Fake Shrink

My mother always listens to this mail order diploma phony much to my chagrin.

He is an idiot straight up.

[[e-mail]]

21. for sure

[Brundle_Fly]

33. Dolly Parton

played Dr. Phil in a movie I think./

[Clark2008]

59. She did a good job, then, because Dolly's a Democrat.

She's from the most Republican county in the state, but she's a Democrat.

She's a card-carrying member of the Music Row Democrats. :)

[nicknameless]

107. Very glad to hear it, because Wiki has her on one of the repug lists.

She's too kind-hearted to be a repug.

[VolcanoJen]

40. Ooooh! Do you remember what he said??

I haven't filled up my Dr. Phil Hate Reservoir in awhile!

Do tell?

[K8-EEE]

99. He's COUNSELING NOLA Evacuees On Larry King...

BLECH! Media whore...if he wants to shrink some people why does he have to mug and promote himself at the same time...disgusting.

[Vektor]

2. In the grand scheme, not too many.

And mostly old has-beens.

[rox63]

3. A couple more

Tom Selleck
Arnold Schwarzenegger

[marbuc]

6. Even more

Rick Schroder
Geena Davis
Ron Silver (is he even a celebrity)
James Woods

[AverageJoe]

15. Geena Davis?

Man, that sucks. I've always liked her. No more.

[marbuc]

25. According to the list provided below

Geena Davis has donated to mostly to Dems. I had always heard she was Repub, but I am apparently wrong. I'm sorry to have tarnished her good name, and slandered her so. Please proceed in liking Geena Davis, and forgive my accusation.

[AverageJoe]

27. Whew!

I feel better now. Geena, forgive my lack of faith!

[Clark2008]

61. My guess is that she's a conservative Dem.

Isn't she a Southern gal?

[loupe-garou]

64. Geena grew up in Wareham, MA near Buzzard's Bay

She's probably a Democrat that likes the odd Republican.

[Clark2008]

71. Sorry... I had her confused with someone else

Well, not exactly, but I had her biography confused. Thanks for the clarification.

[Kahuna]

85. 60 lashes with a wet noodle. Thou shalt not..

accuse Geena Davis of covorting with the unwashed.

[WCGreen]

16. Bo Derek. You forgot Bo Derek....

DAmn. How could you forget Bo Derek....

[GRLMGC]

17. Oh I know

the biggest star of them all

[marbuc]

22. Sorry, I did forget Bo Derek

She's a RW whacko

[NoPasaran]

55. Bo Derek?

Her fifteen minutes were over a long time ago.

[ElectroPrincess]

51. Not surprised ...

Geena Davis
James Woods

Not only Republicans but HOPELESSLY in love with THEMSELVES. :puke:

[Greeby]

5. Whereas the Democratic list

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_celebrities_with_links_to_the_U.S._Democratic_Party

Much more impressive

[Deep N RedLand]

10. And much longer.

Guess they're right about those dreaded Hollywood limousine liberals.
:hippie:

[terrya]

60. Walter Cronkite is a Democrat. Thought so.

:-)

Yes, this is a much more impressive list.

I'm not sure how important these celebrites are in the scheme of things, but it's nice to know some of my favorites (like Bette Midler) are one of us. :-)

[saracat]

121. No. He is an independent.

[nicknameless]

108. NANCY GRACE ?????!!!!!

That has GOT to be a typo!

[saracat]

123. is, unfortunately, definately a Democrat.

But hey, it is a vote!

[timber84]

8. LYNN SWAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ARGH

[Telly Savalas]

105. But Mean Joe Greene is surely one of us.

[BlueManDude]

106. but we got Franco!!

How Lynn Swann has manged to keep his sideline reporter job for so many years is baffling to me. He's as bad now as he was the day he started.

[Humor_In_Cuneiform]

9. I don't watch "Dr. Phil" cause he makes me sick,

much in the same way that the neocons do.

It is real similar.

I don't think he has a clue what he's doing, and he does it with such self assurance, regardless of what it may do to those who actually take him seriously.

:puke:

[The Wielding Truth]

86. I really think he believes in a federal social responsibility.

He has a personal code of owning up to mistakes and problems . He could not be in step with this administration. Not all republicans could agree with all the Cheney Group actions.

[Humor_In_Cuneiform]

102. Personal code is one thing,

Being skilled at helping people takes a lot of other things that I don't think he has.

[latebloomer]

110. I have a similar feeling

He makes the most banal observations, but he says them with such authority, that people think his words are coming from on high.

[ordinaryaveragegirl]

11. Check this out...

Here's a list of celebrities (dead or alive), and their donations by party affiliation over the last 25 years. The funny thing is, I find that the 80-90%+ Dem contributors tend to be celebs I like anyway. :)

http://www.newsmeat.com/celebrity_political_donations/

[NYC Liberal]

14. Clint Eastwood??

I thought he was a Republican? But it says there 80 percent of his contributions were for Dems.

[SaveElmer]

49. I think he's an independent...

I recall him saying he voted for Perot in '92...with his recent movie however he is on the outs with conservatives!!!

[Eurobabe]

67. thought he was a libertarian

[Toots]

69. Karl Rove has donated mostly to Democrats also.

Everything is not always as it appears.....

[salin]

88. find that hard to believe - where can I read up on this?

[Wabbajack]

92. WTF?

[saracat]

122. He was elected Mayor of Carmel as a Repuke.

[[e-mail]]

23. we need to ban these Repug's

on here
thanks for the link :)

[marbuc]

26. Klinger a Republican?

You're killing me!

[npincus]

44. Drew Carey - ?

sheesh.

[nicknameless]

109. Prince is a repug?! 100%!

[Starbucks Anarchist]

13. One of the linked articles was from the WSJ.

The head of one of the Republican organizations in the entertainment industry complained about the bias against them.

I looked this guy up in IMDB, and he only had one role in a ten-year old movie. No wonder he's bitter. :)

[MattP]

18. Kurt Russell

I don't think Kurt Russell is, I mean look at the open relationship him and Goldie have, and she is a Buddhist. To edit I just looked at it and it looks like he is a libertarian, which is a big difference and the funny thing is on that site the list Mary Carey, the porn star.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

20. He's a Libertarian.

[StellaBlue]

24. Yeah

Kirt Russell was the big surprise/disappointment to me, too.

In a quasi-related vein, what the FUCK is Susan Sarandon doing on that goddamned REVLON commercial?!

[FVZA_Colonel]

29. I don't think Marey Carey was the only one either

I believe it listed another adult film actress as well. I wonder how Dobson/Falwell/Robertson et all have handled that news.

[Independent_Liberal]

19. Alice Cooper?

I believe he supported Bush in the election.

[snowbear]

95. No.. Not Alice Cooper...

I'm almost positive it was Gene Simmons of KISS (easily confused with Alice Cooper though!)

[saracat]

120. Cooper is an ardent Repuke. He lives in Phoenix and is a big Bush

supporter. I hate Alice. He is a big jerk, and , thank god, a washed up has been. Add Glenn Campbell to that list.

[AmBlue]

28. They forgot Britney. n/t

[FreedomAngel82]

32. They had her

I believe she was on down. And don't forget Jessica Simpson and Hilary Duff whereas we have Babyface and REM and Bon Jon Jovi.

[marbuc]

72. Don't forget Bruce

and Moby.

[Julius Civitatus]

30. And, to my chagrin, the list includes some people I like

including Vincent Gallo, Ernest Borgnine, Sydney Pollack, Paul Shaffer, Dennis Hopper, Vince Vaughn.

What are they thinking? Tax cuts?

:shrug:

[fujiyama]

38. In some instances

like Paul Scaeffer and Jerri Ryan, they probably decided they were republican because they gave a few hundred bucks to ONE republican (that too I think it was a primary).

Hell, Robert Redford gave a few hundred bucks in '94 to some congressman from Utah. Maybe he helped him on an environmental issue way back. That doesn't make him a republican and for that matter, he never was a republican.

The only republican celebs that I will judge are those that gave money and openly supported Bush. In that sense I would check Newsmeat. It gives a list of who gave money to whom.

This is one of those republican "we have celebs too". Sure enough they have some stupid wealthy, extremely greedy types smong them too. Hollywood types have huge egos so I'm sure you'll find more than a few repukes in that crowd.

[SaveElmer]

48. Jrei Ryan was married to that whack in Illinois...

The guy originally running against Barack...Jack Ryan. Probably why she donated. I'll bet she has had second thoughts!!!

[yourout]

74. 7 of 9 is seriously HOT!

No resistance here.......She could assimilate me anyday.

[XanaDUer]

113. Jeri Ryan's ex-husband wanted her to have sex

publicly in sex clubs.

He's a Republican, naturally.

[1932]

39. I think Hopper's wife is a big time dem. I think she had fundraisers for

dems in her home.

[FreedomAngel82]

31. Alice Cooper?!

Are you freakin kidding me? Wow. Dale Earnhardt Jr? I thought he didn't like Bush? :shrug: And this says Toby Keith is a republican. I thought he was a self-proclaimed democrat? :shrug: Dolly Parton? I think I like our list a lot better. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_celebrities_with_links_to_the_U.S._Democratic_Party

Jennifer Aniston is a democrat. Wow. I thought Alec Baldwin was a republican? :shrug: They have Kevin Costner down for both. :shrug:

[AntiCoup2K4]

34. Yes, sadly Alice Cooper is a Republican.

Alec Baldwin is not, but his untalented brother Stephen is. Apparently a recent "born again" who adopted the Dennis Miller/Ron Silver method of going nazi to save a failing career.

Toby Keith is a "registered Democrat" like Zell Miller is one. Dolly Parton though, I find it really hard to believe would be a right winger. Reportedly she's singing some 60's protest songs on her current tour.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

42. She also recently performed on a CD benefiting a gay rights organization.

[AntiCoup2K4]

47. A few years ago it was rumored that Dolly may own a toaster oven herself.

...If I remember correctly the story was that she was in a long term relationship with her (female) hairdresser, and that was why her husband never went on the road. Some of my gay friends insisted the story was true but I never heard of any further verification.

I can imagine it would kill some redneck fantasies though. ;)

[Clark2008]

65. Not her hairdresser, but her best friend.

Her name is Judy Ogle and they've been thick-as-thieves for years.

However, she's been married to Carl Dean for longer than I've been alive.

(I was a reporter in Sevier County, TN for 8 years. I know A LOT about Dolly. :) )

[Arugula Latte]

35. Alec Baldwin is hardcore, speak-up, Democrat.

His pathetic loser brother Stephen is a rightwing religious freak.

[Hawkeye-X]

36. I'm sure Alec is ignoring his brother

Refusing to give him any roles in his movies..

Even he was *this* bad in "BioDome"

[VolcanoJen]

41. I think Dale Earnhardt Jr came around after "Fahrenheit 9/11."

Also, during the Aniston/Pitt breakup, many celebrity gossip-types eluded to political strife causing tension in their marriage, because Jennifer Aniston openly supported Bush in '04.

I once saw Kevin Costner on Bill Maher's HBO show, and a dumber actor I've never witnessed.

Finally, the one on the Repub list that really got me... PRINCE.

Nooooooo!!!! Not Prince!! That just can't be true.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

43. Aniston refered to * in Rolling Stone as "a f***** idiot."

I think we can cross her off the list.

[melissinha]

80. not that it matters

But she was married to a hard-core liberal

[AntiCoup2K4]

45. Prince shouldn't be political at all.

As a practicing Jehova's Witness, he shouldn't be involved in politics, as the only government they recognize is that of Jehova Himself.

[ElectroPrincess]

52. Sometimes getting "born again" will ZAP all the sense from your brain n/t

[AntiCoup2K4]

37. Sammy "the Cheddar Rocker" Hagar

The Busheep who ruined Van Halen :mad:

[npincus]

46. Hmmm.. the crazy bitch Coulter said "Democratic women were ugly"

or something to that effect (in a column comparing female Democratic Convention delegates with female Republican Convention delegates...)

Well, it looks like our side has Kim Basinger, Salma Hayak and Cindy Crawford.... their side has Shannon Dougherty, Kathy Lee Gifford and Bob Barker!

Yeah Ann, you fucking witch, I do see your point! tee hee

(BTW, Regis supported Dems 100%- no wonder he couldn't stand Kathy Lee)

[Totally Committed]

53. Gene Simmons of KISS is a Republican, so is

Ron Silver, Marilyn Manson, Jessica Simpson (she is actually Donald Rumsfeld's goddaughter, I have heard), Britney Spears, Patricia Heaton, Diane Sawyer, Danny Aiello, Robert Duvall, Tom Selleck, Reba Mc Intyre, Kevin Costner, Mel Gibson, Bruce Willis, and Pat Sajak.

Just to name a few...

TC

[ChiciB1]

76. I've Got To Leave This Thread

I'm :puke: ing!!!

[salin]

89. Marilyn Manson - given how he has been a focus of the Religious Right

I find that very curious.

[Greeby]

93. Spears isn't Republican

Just vaccous and stupid :P

[SaveElmer]

50. To tell you the truth I don't care much...

The simple fact of a persons political affiliation is not enough in and of itself to boycott their movies...everyone is entitled to their opinion. I have many Republican friends.

It's when they become obnoxious about it, like Dennis Miller and Ron Silver, that I get turned off.

Bruce WIllis is a great actor making great movies, and his political affiliation doesn't seem to keep Democrats from working with him in movies. The same is true with most on that list!

[ElectroPrincess]

54. Well, I do NOT attend movies with hard core Republican Actors ...

They suck anyway. :P

On edit - Bruce Willis!?! :puke:

[SaveElmer]

62. Are you kidding?

Twelve Monkeys
Pulp Fiction
Sixth Sense
The Siege
The Jackal
Fifth Element
Die Hard

Some great movies in there!!!

[marbuc]

73. Don't forget "Striking Distance"

A classic. :sarcasm: but I enjoyed it.

[ElectroPrincess]

104. They sucked IMO ... not into trendy sensationalism - all trashy :P

[Totally Committed]

57. I actively boycott these people as much as I can...

I know it seems petty, but I do not one dollar of my hard-earned money to be passed on to the RNC, thank you.

Just as I "Buy Blue" as much as possible, I also get my entertainment from "Blues" as much as I possibly can. We have to be careful whom we subsidize these days.

TC

[SaveElmer]

63. Eveyone has their own way I guess...for me

I won't boycott a good movie simply because there are Republican actors in it, and I won't go see a bad movie because there are Democratic actors in it.

Of course, looking at the number of A list actors on the Democratic list compared to the number of A list actors of the Republican, it usually isn't a problem!

[Totally Committed]

68. It just usually works for me, that I seem to like films and music

from Democrats, anyway.

John Lennon (and the Beatles), Don Henley (and the Eagles), CSN&Y, Stevie Nicks (and Fleetwood Mack), Bonnie Raitt, Marvin Gaye... all progressive and all favorites.

"To Kill a Mockingbird" (my favorite movie)-- starred Gregory Peck, one of the most progressive actors, politically, of his generation. I can't think of a movie made by Paul Newman that wasn't magnificent. With a few exceptions, the same can be said for the movies of Robert Redford (He directed another of my favorite movies, "The Milagro Beanfield War"). "Moonstruck" (don't know what Cher is, politically, but I know she isn't a Republican). I also like anything that has John Cusack in it ("High Fidelity" was great!), and anything with Meg Ryan, Tom Hanks, or Kathy Bates.

Foreign films (love them!) are harder to guage, but I will not watch anything with Gerard Depardieu, because he has admitted belonging to a "rape gang" in his youth, and said he didn't think it was wrong, because "the girls liked it". *shudder* I also avoid films (sadly....) with Sean Connery in them because I read he believes that wives and girlfriends need a good beating every so often to keep them in line.

Think about it... You might already have tastes that allow you to "boycott" painlessly.

TC

[fujiyama]

100. One thing with movies to keep in mind is

that while one star may be a puke (like Willis) he will just as likely have costars that are liberal. Also, it's also likely in most cases that the writers, producers, director, and others may be liberals. Also, it's possible that a movie starring a liberal has a repuke director or producer.

That said, most movies coming out of Hollywood in recent years have sucked anyways, so I'd say that's a better reason to boycott. Unless a film blatantly has a RW slant, boycotting it because of one actor's politics makes little sense.

[Greeby]

94. Well, look at it this way

The fact that most of their celebrity endorsements are has-beens and z-listers is amusing, as it proves the Repukes are useless even at something simple like getting famous people to like them

[JohnnyBoots]

56. Clint Eastwood is GOP???? I thought he was a Dem.

[ChiciB1]

75. Never Was... Some Say Independent, But He Was Big On

RAYGUN!!

[terrya]

58. Shirley Jones??? Dean Cain???

Oh, Geez...

[Totally Committed]

79. Who is Dean Cain? I don't think I've ever heard of him. n/t

TC

[AntiCoup2K4]

81. Best known as the 1990's version of Superman

[Totally Committed]

82. Proving, yet again, that not watching network TV is like

living under a rock! :rofl:

I had never seen him or that series before. But, I am probably the only person in America that never saw one episode of "Friends" or "Seinfeld", either. I watch no network TV except for "The West Wing".

I know... I'm weird....

TC

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

70. SNAKE PLISSKEN??? SNAKE???

CHIT, man...

:evilgrin:

[KingFlorez]

77. Nancy Grace is a Democrat

She gave to Hillary Clinton and said she was a Dem in a CourtTV online chat. She's not really a celeb though.

[NorVegan]

78. Bart Simpson is a Republican!!

Or his voice anyway..

[AntiCoup2K4]

83. Ay Caramba!

I blame Sideshow Bob!

[Maine-ah]

84. uh oh, look out

they've got Shannen Doherty on their side......

on edit:

OH YEAH BABY WE GOT HARRISON FORD!!!!

I didn't have any idea about him.

[The Wielding Truth]

87. I think this is silly to generalize anyone and assume this administration

Represents them. This group of big business worshipers AKA (THe CHeney GRoup)have gone way over the boundaries of honor,respect,and concern for their constituents.

[salin]

90. better add Celine - to the anti-bush camp

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x1752887

[brentspeak]

91. Kurt Russell is a Libertarian

[snowbear]

96. Well, let me wrap up this list by saying..

That's one damn pathetic list.. I'd like to see the list for "our" side!

[serryjw]

97. What's wrong with being a Republican?

That's what makes us a 2 party country ( at least in times past). Lets not confuse Republicans with Neocons. I Don't agree with them, but I know some caring & warm hearted Republicans. Not the same as RW koolaid drinking freepers

[Borgnine]

98. I have to agree.

Some of these people were considered Republicans before the dark times... before the Bush Administration. The definition has gotten a lot more extreme in the last few years, and I'd give my left nut if we could go back to when our differences boiled down to the size of government.

[Robeson]

101. These aren't times past. And those who seem to identify themselves...

...with current Republicans, seem to be identifying themselves by being a Hate Group, not a party. That's the difference.

[Totally Committed]

103. The republicans, as they currently operate,

are an active hate group.

They countenece racism, greed, religious persecution, sexism, and classism.

Anyone who self-identifies as such loses my respect, and my good will. I will not subsideize them through support for thier "art". Sorry, we need to draw the line at "acceptance" of the current regime and the way they do things, The people who agree with them and join them are complicit.

TC

[personman]

119. Like I tell my mom...

when she sees a politician on TV and goes "Oh he's a republican?, I like him".

If you like him, chances are you don't know his stances on the issues.

Caring and warm hearted people don't force others to conform to their religious beliefs rather then that person's own, or consider equality a threat, or <insert any of hundreds of things conservatives and republicans do that piss you off here> but maybe I'm thinking of a different group of people.

I don't exactly hear droves of republicans condeming Bush's actions, and on the rare occaison that they do, they are usually a minority so small as to be insignificant. So for reasonable caring people they sure are pushing this shit agenda with both hands. Just my opinion.

[latebloomer]

111. Stephen Baldwin?

I guess I just assumed all the Baldwin brothers were liberals.

[BuelahWitch]

112. Joe Eszterhas is a Repug! HA!

Remember Basic Instinct? LOTS of family values in that movie!
:rofl:

[AzDar]

115. And his magnum opus: 'SHOWGIRLS'...brimming with family values!

[demzilla]

114. Satan. You forgot Satan.

Also known as Lucifer, the Prince of Darkness, Dick Cheney.

[leanin_green]

116. Well, you have to become a member of "The Party" in order to work, right?

[malachibk]

117. Heather Locklear, Shannon Doherty = REPUBS

n/t

[TNMOM]

124. just goes to prove air head = republican

[Armstead]

118. Don Johnson?

A dissolute party boy? Oh I guess it figures....

Vincent Gallo -- A specialist in playing creeps.

reba McIntyre -- Not surprising but disappointing.

Maury Povich -- Ha-ha-ha, sleazy Jerry Springer wannabe

[wakemewhenitsover]

125. Vince Vaughn is Republican, according to Wikipedia!
