Scoobie Davis says Hollywood people are a credit to this nation.
Take, for example, Al Franken. When Rush Limbaugh was running roughshod over the truth and declaring a jihad against anyone who opposed the radical right, who spoke up against him? I remember well. I was waiting for a member of Congress or the mainstream media to step up and take on this lying bully. It took an SNL comedy writer to put Limbaugh in his place.
And then there's Alec Baldwin.
The only time I heard Greg Palast's name uttered on network television was when Baldwin was on Politically Incorrect and brought up his work on the disenfranchisement of tens of thousands of mostly minority voters.
Hollywood people are at their best when they're being politically incorrect. They make me proud to call myself a progressive.
