There is a silence
coming from Hollywood. The silence is deafening.
Could
it be the success of Operation Iraqi Freedom, could it be Iraqi citizens actually
greeting our servicemen in the streets with high fives and cheers? Is it the possible
death of Saddam Hussein bringing sorrow to the ranks of the Hollywood division
of the Republican Guard? There is not much to cheer about
in Hollywood, there is a feeling of absolute failure at stopping this great Allied
victory. The make believe president Martin Sheen has not been heard from, maybe
he is at the make believe Camp David? Cher is so downtrodden
she is calling it quits again. This IS her farewell tour she promises. Sheryl
is eating crow, no peace shirts on the horizon. I guess
Hollywood realizes they have very little power in influencing the way America
feels. No Dixie Chick, no Patty Smythe, no Sean Penn could stop this country from
doing the right thing. In the age of the Internet, cable TV and talk radio, they
can no longer “talk trash” and not expect to be hauled out with the
rest of the garbage. Can you say irrelevant? Then say
it! That's how
I see it!
