Ted Danson Rips Rush, Religious Right

 
There's no better example than political commentary from a Hollywood elite to demonstrate how low some conservatives are regarded. According to actor Ted Danson, some conservatives just being manipulated by Rush Limbaugh and organized religion because they're not smart to formulate their own beliefs.
 
Danson, who has starred in both "Becker" and "Cheers," appeared on HLN's Nov. 2 "The Joy Behar Show" and was asked to respond to Rush Limbaugh's criticism of Barack Obama on Nov. 1 "Fox News Sunday." Danson questioned the notion that Limbaugh, who is a self-made success, is really "one of the people." Instead, he accused him playing on people's fears and anger to make money, which he didn't like.

Remember when John Kerry was on the campaign trail, and he got that goofy fake orange suntan?? Ted Danson must have done the same. He looks like he has John Kerry's goofy suntan.

Did I miss something here? Is this man of some importance that I missed? I thought he was just another actor trying to keep his face in the news. He has nothing to say I want to here, and I sure don't watch the trash he makes.

What would you expect from someone who has the IQ of an earthworm. Ted Danson is a bad joke on his best day. In his mind saying something anti-Rush will garner him another 3 minutes of fleeting camera time...something hard to come by when you lack any talent whatsoever.

In the 1940's, Hollywood actors were patriotic and many of them enlisted and went to war!! Many who couldn't enlist at least sold war bonds. These were brave Americans, unlike today's cowardly and worthless actors who gladly take our money and them insult us constantly!! So glad I helped make you rich, idiot!!

The ivory-tower elite talking about preying on people! Incredible! That's what libs are all about, makeing people dependent so that they can maintain their status of power and wealth. What they really hate is people with power and wealth that doesn't share their veiws. Throw in a little deductive reasoning and they become absolutely apoplectic. Its like kryptonite to them.
