hmmm...wondering if librasoul was referencing himself to the statement i made about how celebs have more of an outlet to express themselves than someone like me (a meer commoner in society) who can simply decorate her car with glass chaulk. that is all i meant in that posting....not saying that they have more or less of a right to say what they think, but i do feel that they have a bigger soapbox than the "average" person, and should take that priviledge with some responsibility to be respectful of other's who may think differently. it was not necessary for michael moore to start yelling and screaming over ppl last night to shame the president and claim that we live in "ficticious times" with a "ficticious president"...yatta, yatta, BS. there's a reason that these lil talks after someone receives an award are called "ACCEPTANCE SPEECHES" and not "POLITICAL RANTS"....i mean, seriously.....and maybe if he had been more tactful about expressing his views, more people would have respect for him and perhaps he could have even changed some people's minds. there are plenty of celebs out there who do work for this country and orgs they believe in without getting on a televised event (that is meant to CELEBRATE artists, movies, and filmmakers) and make a spectacle of themselves. c'mon......
anyway, that's all i meant....i thought that was clearly stated, but i guess not. sorry for the confusion...we all have the same right to say how we feel......i just think that celebs should take their position seriously and not act like a jackass, abusing their platform for their freedon of speech.
