Your opinion counts-at the Real Sporer

I’ve got another tough question, and a new contest, for the readers of The Real Sporer. If you could muzzle one entertainment celebrity, just shut their piehole hard, who would it be?

I’ve given this important issue some serious thought. To start with, there is the whole difficulty with definitions. Do characters who read fiction like Dan Rather and Katie Couric count as journalists or entertainers? Is John Stewart a serious news figure since so many Democrats obtain a majority of their news from the “Daily Show”?

In how many categories could candidates compete? Uneducated actors discussing foreign policy seems a good place to start. I don’t know about you but the names Kissinger, Reagan, and Thatcher seem somewhat oxymoronic with Baldwin, Robbins and Sheen. Radical chic is not a foreign policy.

Hippie civil rights singers are a second category. Glory days, they really will pass you by. Aging rock starts like Bruce, Mick and Neil have replaced once great creative talent with a full throated but half witted political phonation, repeating the anti-war slogans of the 60s and 70’s like a geriatric mantra. Maybe sticking to girls your grandchildren’s’ ages would be a more dignified means of pursuing relevance into your senior years fellas?

Demented racist millionaires are a third possibility. Yeah, life in America has been pretty tough for Harry Belafonte and Danny Glover hasn’t it. Harry, daylight’s been here for decades buddy. You have enjoyed success, glory and wealth all provided mostly by white people in the least racist heterogeneous nation on earth. While the terror bombers fully embrace the principles of racial neutrality Harry fully embraces the terror bombers.

Blue State panderers are yet a fourth possible category. John Mellencamp (Indiana) and the Dixie Chicks (Texas) demonstrate the depth of a mud puddle as they bleat the liberal line to gain affection from the cool Blue States of California and New York. Small town Indiana guys aren’t all that sensitive and caring Johnny Cougar. The guy that needed a girl that knew when to hit the highway probably isn’t all that bent out of shape by monitoring Al Qaeda telephone calls to the United States. But how can you get any love in Manhattan if you don’t understand the true danger posed to the world by George W. Bush and the extent to which the terrorist need a more “sensitive” treatment.

So here’s the question. You submit names and I’ll replace the CIETC poll with the top five celebrities you want to muzzle. The winner of the poll will get the first annual “Anna Nicole Smith Award for Lucid Political Discourse”.
