Celebs to lean right..... D*mn.... James Earl Jones??? :cry:

edit, sorry, have to page through all the pictures to find him....he's registered as one. D*mn

[lunatica]

1. 'Leaning' right isn't a crime yet

but if I hear he thinks Sarah Palin should be President, then my heart will break.

[Orsino]

25. Hell, most of the Democratic Party leadership "leans right."

If the article means "Republican," well, that's a stupid conflation.

[hobbit709]

2. Darth Vader wasn't exactly a liberal type.

Maybe the character went to his head.

[conspirator]

24. lol nt

[meegbear]

3. I'll never be able to listen to "This is CNN" again

[tallahasseedem]

4. Ugh...

I wish I wouldn't have clicked on the link. I'm very disappointed with some of them.

[wndycty]

5. Oh fr Christsake. . .

. . .this is:

1) Not verified

2) Even if it is verified its not the end of the world. Leaning to the right, hell being a conservative, is not the same as being an asshole. There are many decent folks on the right.

[wolfgangmo]

13. And I'm one of them.

I am a conservative....


... which in America means that I am a member of the left wing of the left most party I can find.


I'm a conservative, not a lunatic and not a fascist.

[Shell Beau]

23. Agreed!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

6. Those Photos Are Fliiping Useless- How Did Gloria Estefan Get On The List?

[ShortnFiery]

7. There are many corporate conservatives in the Democratic Party now.

Our nation has moved so far to the right these folks would be labeled "moderate republicans" if this were the 1970s.

[UTUSN]

17. Gloria, her spouse Emilio, his niece Lili are 1st or 2nd gen Exiles, FRIENDS of Poppy for decades

The younger generations of Exiles have seen the Hispanic-Democratic light. Gloria has said she was approached to enlist into the CIA early on.

Lili ESTEFAN co-hosts an afternoon Univision gossip chat show, would take souvenirs the next day after attending White House functions, a la Bahbwah WAHWAH----invitations, party favors. She would say (in Spanish), "My people, this has nothing to do with politics. The BUSHes are family friends..."

[Javaman]

8. I met Mr. Jones some years ago.

From my perspective and the conversation we had, I can say without a doubt, he is certainly no republican.

[hlthe2b]

11. Ahh... good to hear.

It really would be hard to think an African American of his generation, reputation and stature would be a fan of what passes for a Republican today.

[hlthe2b]

9. Oh, say it isn't so...he may just be a fiscal conservative...

in the very old school republican kind of way, given his age. I've always really liked JEJ--that voice is just mesmerizing.

[mstinamotorcity]

10. Don't believe everything

you read these days. There is a big push to get minorities to join the repug party. And you know they think that all people of minority or ethnic backgrounds think the same. Why do you think Micheal Steele is head (he thinks he's head we know its Rush Limpdick) of the RNC

[hlthe2b]

12. Yes... Remember the RETHUGS are trying to say MNLK was one

of them!!! Seriously!

[TheManInTheMac]

14. The list also claims that Kid Rock is a musician and Adam Sandler is an actor.

It is suspect.

[uponit7771]

15. Unnn, I'd have to hear him....there are FEW black men his age that are reThug IMHO

[Flipper999]

16. This doesn't necessarily mean anything bad about these celebs

If you look at the list, a bunch of them are on there just because they are registered repubs. One's registration doesn't have to reflect how one acts or votes.

Hell, my sister's actually a registered republican, and she's probably more liberal than me. Oh course, someone just screwed up her registration a bunch of years ago, but still...

People are people. I've met some ignorant and mean spirited folks calling themselves liberals.

[Nuclear Unicorn]

18. .

[OilemFirchen]

19. Yowza! They have Britney AND Jessica?

We're doomed I tell ya!

BTW, here's James Earl Jones:

Damned fascist!

[lunatica]

28. Thanks for the link n/t

[OilemFirchen]

20. Could they be thinking of

James Earl RAY?

[CLANG]

21. Jessica Simpson - no surprise there!

[pintobean]

22. I watched an interview with him about 10 years ago.

I don't remember most of it, or who it was with. What stuck in my mind was that he stated that yes, he was indeed a republican. Most of his family were republicans. Lincoln republicans. That's how he put it.

[Arugula Latte]

27. Pssst .... James ... the Civil War has been over for 145 years now ...

:eyes:

[athenasatanjesus]

26. they aren't all bad

I'm sure many of those celebs are just barely into politics,and maybe JEJ registered pre-reagan when there were some half sane republicans.
