By the way kddani we are not running for office so you can stop the baseless personal attacks.
To explain my comment, I meant that anyone that would use an Eminem video to make a political decision probably won't take the time to show up at the polls. I'm sorry but entertainers have a place and it is certainly not in the political arena.

Hello. I didn't call you a racist. Feeling guilty about something perhaps? Nor did I call you a bigot. I said you'd made some hateful bigoted comments in the past. You may think you haven't, but they obviously left enough of an impression on me to remember that. Posts such as all of your virulent anti-Canada posts. You're entitled to your opinions of course, but so am I. Your comment rubbed many people the wrong way and did come off as bigoted, some might even venture to say racist.
Also, thank you GP for pointing out the entertainers thing. Guess it's okay as long as they support your own side
And hottytoddy and whoever else is saying all this anti-eminem stuff... who has claimed that Eminem is singlehandedly bringing people to the polls? No one! He's part of a bigger movement. While a lot of people don't agree with entertainers becoming political, more people, young and old, pay more attention to the lives and opinions of entertainers than they do any politician. Hence why there are tons of shows and even specific channels devoted to the lives of celebrities. Why can't they try to get people involved in the political process? Why don't they have that right? You remember that little thing called freedom of speech... that was particularly created for thing such as this- people expressing their political opinons. So are entertainers exempt from the Bill of Rights???
