Are you saying that the MCCain camp is sending out these robocalls?
I could not find anything on their relation only that she came here 9 years ago invited by Obama and he has had comunication with her. What I first saw is that she helped raise his father but that might not make sense because of her age. Trying to do a serch really gives nothing more on her but she did attend his swearing in back in 2005.
The calls are stamped with his approval aren't they? Are you saying they aren't from the Republicans??

I sware if one more actor tells me who to vote for I'm gonna pop (Matthew Broderick being the latest). Now I understand why actors tend to be democrats, as being an actor or writer usually means waiting tables at some point and a party that favors welfare and handouts is definately more appealing for an industry with that type of infastructure. However I wish that someone would admit point blank that the reason these celebrities are mindlesly endorsing Democrats is because it favors their industry not because they're great political analysts and as most of you know I hate people that mindlessly endorse a party (Crazy Evangelicals for Republicans just to be fair).
I don't know maybe I'm on edge because I don't know what we're going to get from either canidate. I mean if McCain gets elected we get a hot vice president and if Obama gets elected we get the coolest president ever so on that front it's a win win.

Actors act and live their life in a false world of make believe.

i disagree. most of the stars started out working min. wage jobs, trying to catch a break. so they have literally seen both sides of the argument. who better to decide? although i don't know anyone that votes according to an endorsement

It's not like there all actors are Democrats, they just happen to be the most vocal.

Interesting, you call these Hollywood actors "mindless" and yet all you had to say about the candidates is "cool" and "hot." Mindless indeed.

Carlos Rogers with the quote of the year on the election, and unfortunately is probably something that shouldn't have been said:
“Hey, like a lot of people said, one president gonna stick it up your butt, the other one’s gonna stick it further in the butt, so it don’t matter, man. Whatever happens, happens. That’s something we can’t control.”

:doh: It was a joke Saden. Maybe not a funny one, but I imagine you at least knew it was a joke.
