    Response to WILL.I.AM How do you think we got “Knee deep in shit”. The answer should be directed toward the president dont you think. Duh!!! Or are we going to play the Obama blame game. It must be Bush’s fault right? Romney had nothing to do with us being in the despicable position this country is in. Leave your fancy mansion and come see how real people are living with no jobs, high insurance and losing homes. That is the deep shit we are in. Not you. So get off your soapbox. You are so detached from where the American people really are. Stick to what you know, not what you are clearly clueless about. Also, Crowley was not Bipartisan in this debate. Who picks these clowns? Surely not the people. She would have been fired 1 minute in.
    Signed,
    poor, unemployed american under Obama socialism rule.

    Response to all celebrities,
    Every time one of you guys get up there on your all mighty pedestals and start your yipping, know this, no one in my family will spend another penny on your films. We the american people do not give a rats ass what YOU think. Go buy another $10,000 purse or do another line of coke! Obama is a celeb-ass kisser. He has driven this country into the ground and no matter how much voter (by cheating) support from ACORN support he gets, (like 4 years ago), he will not be getting my vote. Shame on you for using your celebrity status for trying to sway people to vote for a topic avoiding, uneducated about his own government, lying, cheat. Oh, and just to make sure that you know where I am coming from, I am a proud black woman who the president has not a damn thing for except try to sell me his memoirs and keep me on government assistance. I want a job, not a handout. Obama, You have no substance.

    What are you drinking Mitt juice? Mitt is a fool and has no clue what he is talking about… #TeamObama. He gets my vote again. I’m not voting for an asswipe that wants to tell me what to do with my body, and if I should get paid less for doing the same job as a man.

    get your ass up and get a job then. Dont be picky, if you need to work at Mc Donalds then fucking do so. Stop your bitching and do something.

  • guest

    Oh yes he did. As president and only stockholder of Bain Capita, he PERSONALLY bought up profitable American companies, laid of their workers and shipped the factories, lock stock and barrel, to China. That’s how he made his millions. How in gds name can you vote for a corporate raider?

  • guest

    If Mitt wins, he has promised to pick supreme court judges like Joseph Alioto. That’s the end of Roe V Wade. That’s the end of legalized abortion. That’s the end of women’s ability to controle their bodies and their lives. It’s the end of equality. You kids have no idea what it was like before Roe V Wade. The saying was, “Every woman lives in fear of the first of the month.” and it was true. Medical schools, business schools and law schools had quotas. No more than six percent of places went to women, because “We can’t afford to waste money educating Women. They just get pregnant and have to quit”. Women now make up over half of medical student bodies and close to that in law and business schools. We can now present ourselves to a client, a school admissions officer, or a future boss as being as dependable and as likely to be able to follow though and finish a job as a man, because we and they now know we don’t have to spend the next nine months throwing up and the next two years changing diapers because our contraceptive failed. (Yes, they still fail). NO WOMAN SHOULD VOTE FOR MITT ROMNEY.

    obama clearly won the debate and he is going to save america

  • D. Martin

    Where have you been the last 4 years?

  • D. Martin

    I don’t vote the party — I vote the issues. I voted for Obama in the last election. I believed his campaign promises. It’s the economy that I’m worried about.

  • D. Martin

    Politics — a very touchy subject. Nobody wins in this argument. But I do see your point. It is so easy for a celebrity to want Obama in because they do not have the same issues as the average American — no worries on work, money, insurance, feeding their families, etc. People are losing jobs, homes, and insurance. This is a reality. It was said — in another post that Crowley hosted some function for Obama in the past. If that is true — AND I DON’T KNOW THAT IT IS — then she was not bipartisan.

  • Regina1180

    I don’t think politics should be brought to a site like this, ever. I eat to know which celebrities are sleeping together, not which candidate they endorse. My mind is already made up, they’re not going to change it.

    How many people do you think GM employs outside of the USA ? With our tax money. Quote from Dan Akerson – CEO of GM
    “Our commitment to working in China, with China, and for China remains strong and focused on the future.”

    OBAMA 2012!! WON THIS EASILY! !

  • just freakin ducky

    ever hear of CONDOMS I am a woman, and I have to ask why does the father not get to decide if his child is or isn’t? Oh ya because the woman has to carry the said child. Condoms then. At least the men have a choice to. equal rights right?

  • NahirLa

    Kimberly, congradulations for being open minded and objective. You see the wrongs and you call them as you see them. Obama=destruction for this nation. He showed us. We are all worse off under his leadership or more like the LACK of it. And yesterday he looked like the typical Chicago thug, who would be afraid to throw a punch, if he had to. They just scream a lot, thinking we are all scared. VOTE THIS INCOMPETENT guy out. We deserve better.

  • Mayhemgirl

    Thank God the celebs weighed in on the debate, how else would we “regular” folks know who to vote for?

  • ME

    hes been HERE AS EVERYBODY ELSE! whats better than Obama right now??? NO Mitt R. he is a fucking shit head

  • ME

    the economic problem is not just here. is in the entire fucking world..why would be usa the only country to have a good one???? ppl in this country need to remember that this is just another country as any other, youre not better than anybody else!….and the economic problem wasnt only caused by stupid decisions made by George W. Bush government, but because of a bunch of other factors, including Banks!!!!

  • ME

    ever hear that CONDOMS FAIL TOO!

  • Nina_Twice

    You have got to be kidding. I don’t believe government has the answer to all of America’s problems but, I do believe a government that has compassion for the citizens living in that America is vital. Romney is a business man true enough but, he is far from ready to run this country.

    As for wearing condoms, ? ? ? I am married and have been for more than ten years. My hubby and I planned every child we had based on where we were with our finances; that is what determined when the birth control wasn’t used. The use of birth control between two in a relationship should never be solely the responsibility of one or the other but both for different reasons AND especially for a single woman who is having relations and doesn’t want to find herself pregnant. She should have the right because in the end, she is the one who will be responsible for the care of the child.

    I have two friends who found themselves pregnant and after speaking with the father of child both came to the conclusion that they were going to carry their child to term. One of my friends said that she would not do it if he wasn’t going to be in it with her. He was there for the pregnancy and two months after the child was born, he left her for another woman. I have the child 80% of the time because, she never wanted to parent alone. The condom failed her and she is feeling guilty because she wished she had followed her mind and taken the morning after pill. You clearly have no idea what decisions women face on a daily basis. The other one married her child’s father and he is currently oversees. He is parenting via Skype.

    You are right, politics is a very touchy subject. I am not a celebrity and, I am not as wealthy as I would like to be but, when President Bush left office, weeks after, my home went from being $254,000 to $64,500, my stock and 401 went from tens of thousands to between $6 – $12, the representative for the company where I worked told us this was our last week and, it was Tuesday. They said the company had been granted bankruptcy and, unemployment would not be available. My hubby was told his division was shutting down until further notice because there was uncertainty due to the floor falling out from the bottomed out economy. This was before President Obama took office so I am not sure why he is being blamed.

    I started a business from home. I was able to take advantage of many of the tax cuts President Obama has put in place and, I currently looking for a building to move my business into. I no longer have a 401 but, the stocks I have are doing great, I own my home and have been able to get out of credit card debt. My husband isn’t working where he use to work nor is he working in the field but, he makes $8,000 more than he was managing and teaching classes at a local community college.

    It is sad that people are experiencing home and job lost but, there are at least 200 job postings in my area and buildings going up all over the place so it is certainly not that work isn’t out here. People have to face the fact that the job they once worked may not be available so now, it is time to do something else. One may have to learn a new trade and work in a different market.

    The last four have not been perfect but, I am certainly doing much better than I was as Bush was leaving office.

  • Sarah

    Exactly and also just freaking sucky is stupid too because women Just don’t use condoms to prevent preganacy 8 take birth control caus it lightens my periods. My periods get so bad I can’t take it birth contr helps. Clearly people need to understand birth cotr just doesn’t have one purpose. If condoms always worked then people wouldn’t be having abortions now would they? Clearly ms ducks is fucked in the head

  • Matt

    Your comment is a load of bullshit. The fact you are saying cel orbited are siding with Obama is bullshit. I can name many celebs that aren’t for him. The fact you are even trying to categorize celebs as uneducated uninformed and less human just cause their wealthy and successful is extremely ignorant. MANY celebs truffle with money so i don’t know what rock you have been living under. And especially with their work. Celebs NEVER know for a fact if they have a job or not. They go out on a limb and audition for movies etc just like any person hunting for a job does. One wrong move and their careers are over. Not to mention the constant telescope into their personal livestock death threats hate and constant judgment. Sorry but clearly being a celebrity isn’t a joy ride. I’d never want to be one of them. Tons of them have families and deal with I issues other human deal with. And their problems get displayed all over the tv and magazines. If we want to comment on people lets all be logical. I highly doubt being a celebs is peaches and cream. I’d rather be broke and ordinary than live the lives some of them have. And many celebs have their doctorate and master degrees so let’s be just.

  • D. Martin

    Nana – Wow! Just….wow! You took lemons and made lemonade! Awesome for you! Have you considered helping others with what you’ve learned from all this? I’m curious…what home business did you start? Did you see a need and found a way to fill it or did you take something you enjoy and then build a business around this? I’m very curious and good for you that you found a way to turn everything around.

  • D. Martin

    Matt – I see what your saying…I do. But, unlike celebs, the average American does not work on a movie for 3 – 5 months and walk away with a six to seven figure paycheck for the work. I don’t claim to know the ins-and-outs of celebrity life — I can only speak from my own life — but we constantly are told in the news what some celebrities earn. I don’t think I’d want their life either — but I sure wouldn’t mind the paycheck.

  • D. Martin

    Maybe she’s just fed up — like many of us are.

  • D. Martin

    Kimberly – as I’ve said in another post I voted for Obama because I wanted the “Change you can believe in” just like most Americans. I celebrated when he was elected. I was out of work for over 6 months and had to move my family across 6 states to find work at $15,000 a year less than what I was making before. I consider myself lucky to get that. You may be getting slammed here but I understand where you are coming from.

  • Matt

    Those are bullshit figure numbers I work in this industry. Have all my life. The media lies. When a actor gets paid their agent manager and publicist get majority of their pay off the front. The. Stylist makeup artist assistants etc. and the amount they get paid men vs women is different too. Even in Hollywood women get paid less and offered lets than men. I have one celeb friend who had to actually pay $15,000 just to get his liense plate switch to another state. Only reason he was shafted that was cause of his car and who he was. And being that it takes FOREVER mad it’s extremely hard to even get a role who’s to say that’s their last pay check? Sometimes you have to try to live off that. You don’t get retirement like people with regular jobs do. So whatever you make you haw to base you life off. Taxes is higher and houses here are twice the amount their worth. Some people may say that’s fair cause they earn more but if you re an actress having trouble booking roles it’s not alot at all. Especially when yor age look and everyone effects your job. Anything you do effects it. You don’t have an understood weekly pay like other people. I’m just saying its alot more to it than meets the eye. These people don’t have it made either. And to be honest alot of the jewelry you see celebs wear it’s rented. Not even theirs cause majority can’t afford it even their houses cars etc are rentals. Hollywood, this place is all smoke an mirrors. Sometimes regular everyday people have it better in my opinion. Especially when actors don’t have a degree in anything else. If their acting or music don’t work out what do they do? Their lives are based on media sales and their image where ass if you’re a regular person you work hard you get paid its understood. That’s all I’m saying. That guy said celebs don’t know anything about politics I’m just saying alot of them are very smart people should set them lower than everyone else just cause of who they are and vice versa.

  • D. Martin

    Matt – Thank you for sharing that with us because a lot of us don’t know the ins-and-outs of that life. We only know what we SEE and that’s the fashion, the money, the red carpets, the limos…

    It’s good to hear the other side and I’ve learned something I did not know before. And it does change my opinion. Question: If an actress is reported to have earned $30 m last year what would you say — given your post of managers, publicists, and stylists, etc, — is their “take home”? What do they actually KEEP of that? I had always assumed, given the money they make, that they all paid for their homes outright, but maybe they have to apply for mortgages just like the rest of us.

  • http://twilightirruption.blogspot.com/ abbeysbooks

    You can deduct a mortgage from your income so it is advantageous to have one. Another reason mortgage interest rates are low, so less can be deducted and more for the govt out of your income. Everything is a matrix.
