She is also a deep-thinking, well-reasoned, compassionate person with a wonderful sense of humor, a great sense of responsibility, and a deep sense of community.
To be fair, Seadouche, I don't recall Obama EVER saying anything about his critics being racist. His defenders? Absolutely. Can you show one example where Obama said it? One? Because if you review Trumps twitter feed, you'll see many defensive attacks coming right from his fingertips.
She criticized Trump for viciously mocking a disabled person. Anyone who has an issue with that needs to take a long, hard look in the mirror and ask what their real problem is.
>Every actor and their mom, is speaking up these days.
from the reviews in this mornings papers the GG was a unprecedented stinker from Fallon on down.
possibly the reason Streeps comments are getting any attention at all? How many more times are we going to revisit Trumps tasteless comments concerning the disabled reporter or for that matter the Hillary transgressions?
open a twitter account and make Donald your twit buddy. Its a good laugh.
never happened, according to the Trump propaganda machine. Nope he never mocked anyone.^
KellyAnne's comments are rich, apparently she doesn't give the Trump supporters much credit for knowing that Trump lives in a gold tower, is a reality TV star - or that she's getting paid millions and can afford a pretty dress. I suppose if they can't see with their own eyes that Trump mocked a disabled man, they can't see shit.
“But this is Hollywood. I think where there is self-pity, a lot more self-awareness would do them some charm,” she continued. “Talking about how vilified poor Hollywood is, in their gazillion dollar gowns. Can I borrow a couple of those for the inaugural, please?”
oh so it's about his Intentions, well then it's all good. He didn't INTEND to start WW3
“never mocked anyone. People keep saying I intended to mock the reporter’s disability, as if Meryl Streep and others could read my mind, and I did no such thing,” Trump said.
It must be hilarious to say "Watch, I'm gonna talk some shit and get the prez-elect to freak on me." If I were on TV I would talk to shit to that guy every day just to push his buttons..
^^ No shit.
Can you imagine the hilarity that will ensue if he takes his twitter habits to The White House with him and actually does things on a daily basis that he can be criticized for? He won't even have time to do President things because he will spend all day on twitter talking shit to everyone that calls him out on his bullshit. The comedians should be lining up to fuck with him. I would if I was a comedian...every damn day. They're gonna end up taking his twitter away from him again is my guess though.
I don't usually post in these types of threads, ends up being a big waste of time.
However, I feel compelled to say that I don't know who has less brains, seadoggie or eddiefrog. If either one had half a brain they would be dangerous.
Just stand up to him and put a hand on their hip and say HELL NO, this isn't the way things are going to go down. She holds the respect of a solid majority of Americans, believe it or not. The lady wields power in this country. If he went on a disrespectful rant or parodied her
I think a majority more of liberals would clash against a seeming upswing of racism that was stirred up by all the shooting and Trumps campaign.
I sure as hell would back her ass up!
I haven't seen any positive announcements from his camp, this whole time.
To me, it feels pretty shitty- thanks for letting me say I think she could give him cause to act more accountable, instead of like a raving ego maniac.
Interesting idea, Ro. Oprah Winfrey is certainly a strong, powerful person, and wealthy enough for him to (maybe) respect.
Different subject, stemming from Meryl Streep's appearance at the Golden Globes. The person who introduced her, Viola Davis, gave a wonderful introduction. Worth reading.
I don't think he would be respectful towards her much.
I think she could stand up on her own network and literally start a revolt, just with Hollywood alone, not to mention the millions who look up to her. The power she has amongst millions of American women of all ages, races and backgrounds is powerful. It could turn the tide back in 4 years and cause more people to be proactive for their freedoms.
It feels like Trump if fucking with civil rights, this would be a modern civil rights movement - who the hell wants this country to go backwards. She knows a struggle. She is an amazing businesswoman. If she had a constructive way to take him down, it would happen.
Viola Davis rocks.
I admired her work in the movie, The Help, over Christmas vacation. The work felt strongly relevant to today's social/political climate.
>> I don't think he would be respectful towards her much.
Of course he wouldn't. No matter who you are the moment you publicly criticize him you become his enemy.
That is what is why he is so dangerous. Just imagine what could happen when a leader of another country takes him to task on the world stage. The dude is mentally unstable and cannot handle being criticized in any form by anybody he's proven that time and time again.
>> It feels like Trump if fucking with civil rights, this would be a modern civil rights movement - who the hell wants this country to go backwards.
He's tapped Jeff Fucking Sessions to be our next AG. If that isn't a kick in the nuts to civil rights then I don't know what is.
It's gonna take a lot more than Oprah to lead the charge but I do agree she has the platform..the question is will she step up?
It is pretty damn scary but I still hold out hope that the Dems will have the balls to fight him from taking us backwards as a society.
>No matter who you are the moment you publicly criticize him you become his enemy.
He's got more than half the country as his "enemy" - forget WW3, this is going to be a Civil War first when he starts arresting peaceful protesters..aka "Economic Terrorists"
Politics aside, saying that martial arts is not an art is very ignorant and makes her look very stupid. I wonder what an artist such as Bruce Lee would have to say about that comment coming from somebody who obviously doesn't know much information about the subject.
just a guess, but likely her point was about a fighting sport not being an artistic endeavor and all of the qualities that one gains and shares by being a screen actor. She was on stage accepting an acting award, but if you're into mixed martial arts and fell slighted..lol.
I don't care about her political views, personally. When you make an asinine comment like that to you are leaving yourself out to full criticism from the art community. Being part of that herself, she should certainly know better. Once again, Martial Arts was founded upon the grace of your body, soul and the earth. It is not a fighting sport but a practice of physical meditation. If you are ignorant to the subject (as you obviously are), I highly recommend doing some research on it.
James Corden: "Truth is, this was actually good news for Meryl because 'Most Overrated Actress in Hollywood' was literally the only award she hadn't won yet. I guess if you want to see real acting, just watch the Republican Congress as they pretend that everything's going to be okay for the next four years."
>>> However, I feel compelled to say that I don't know who has less brains, seadoggie or eddiefrog. If either one had half a brain they would be dangerous.
the difference is seafoam is an actual troll who posts things to rile up stupid people (he has admitted it, and that he is strung out on opioids for 'chronic pain'),
And I DO feel that Meryl chose the wrong sport to criticize (though the image of people beating each other up behind a cyclone fence does seem a little less "cultured" than other events). There are a variety of world cultures represented in this sport, with a little American Melting Pot at play as well.
So, you make a good point Timapane
Here's an interesting interview about the subject:
O hell! what have we here?
A carrion Death, within whose empty eye
There is a written scroll! I'll read the writing.
All that glitters is not gold;
Often have you heard that told:
Many a man his life hath sold
But my outside to behold:
Gilded tombs do worms enfold.
Had you been as wise as bold,
Young in limbs, in judgment old,
Your answer had not been inscroll'd:
Fare you well; your suit is cold.
dont know about her current politics, but meryl did give a standing ovation, with some other clown actors and actresses, in 2003 for roman polanski when he won an oscar. i mean he only raped a 13 year old and fled the country. there were others who did not stand or clap. who knows what people think is right and wrong.....

Politics aside, saying that
Politics aside, saying that martial arts is not an art is very ignorant and makes her look very stupid. I wonder what an artist such as Bruce Lee would have to say about that comment coming from somebody who obviously doesn't know much information about the subject.

Yeah, I get that.
Yeah, I get that.
just a guess, but likely her point was about a fighting sport not being an artistic endeavor and all of the qualities that one gains and shares by being a screen actor. She was on stage accepting an acting award, but if you're into mixed martial arts and fell slighted..lol.

I don't care about her
I don't care about her political views, personally. When you make an asinine comment like that to you are leaving yourself out to full criticism from the art community. Being part of that herself, she should certainly know better. Once again, Martial Arts was founded upon the grace of your body, soul and the earth. It is not a fighting sport but a practice of physical meditation. If you are ignorant to the subject (as you obviously are), I highly recommend doing some research on it.

James Corden: "Truth is, this was actually good news for Meryl because 'Most Overrated Actress in Hollywood' was literally the only award she hadn't won yet. I guess if you want to see real acting, just watch the Republican Congress as they pretend that everything's going to be okay for the next four years."

the difference is seafoam is an actual troll who posts things to rile up stupid people (he has admitted it, and that he is strung out on opioids for 'chronic pain'),
while eddiefrog believes what he's saying.
based on this, seafoam has 'more brains'.

I thought Meryl Streep was referring to Ultimate Fighting, which, IMHO, has the image of the Monster Truck Rally of Martial Arts.
If anything, she should be called out for being an "Elitist" for disparaging Football and Fighting. That's America Great stuff!

^I was wrong, she called out
^I was wrong, she called out Mixed Martial Arts.
And I DO feel that Meryl chose the wrong sport to criticize (though the image of people beating each other up behind a cyclone fence does seem a little less "cultured" than other events). There are a variety of world cultures represented in this sport, with a little American Melting Pot at play as well.
So, you make a good point Timapane
Here's an interesting interview about the subject:

O hell! what have we here?
O hell! what have we here?
A carrion Death, within whose empty eye
There is a written scroll! I'll read the writing.
All that glitters is not gold;
Often have you heard that told:
Many a man his life hath sold
But my outside to behold:
Gilded tombs do worms enfold.
Had you been as wise as bold,
Young in limbs, in judgment old,
Your answer had not been inscroll'd:
Fare you well; your suit is cold.
