You know who I blame for all these celebrity opinions? You. That's right you. You're the one who watches "Access Hollywood", etc. which is where most of these things pop up. You're the one who reads the National Enquirer or the celebrity section in the paper.

A celebrity is supporting a political candidate you don't like? So. Fucking. What. Their vote counts just as much as yours does, and maybe it's a hint that you should get off your fat ass and volunteer for your candidate. At least the celebrity is engaged in the process. You, you're just bitching. And you know what, you're bitching about the GOSSIP PAGES. I'll suffer bitching about the op/ed pieces or something that's actually news, but I won't listen to you, Mr. and Mrs. America, complain because some entertainer doesn't agree with your personal agenda.

What does any anything that some "star" believes have to do with me? Nothing. If I like The Who, does that mean that I'm going to abuse drugs and alcohol? No, it means I like their music. If I like Bob Mould, does that make me gay or pro-gay marriage or anything of the sort? No, in my case it means that I think he perfected the power trio sound. I couldn't care less who he sleeps with or votes for. As a matter of fact, I think he should have less sex and get involved in no political movements so that he can spend more time in the studio making music I like. But if he doesn't want to do that, so what? Alec Baldwin is in one of the only 2 or 3 funny shows on TV, and he's arguably the funniest person on the show. He's certainly consistently been the funniest host on SNL for the past 10 or so years. He has a policital agenda and people listen to him? Great. I don't care. Don't try to make me have to care. I will get angry.

Jesus, have we really gotten to the point where we're going to elect our leaders like "American Idol" or "Survivor"?
