Hollywood Leftists Give Millions to Gore, Hillary
 
Hollywood liberals, desperate for Al Gore and Hillary Clinton to be elected, are showering millions of dollars on them.
 
Entertainment big shots giving to Democrats include Tom Hanks, Oliver Stone, Martha Stewart, author Anne Rice, most members of the old pop group The Eagles and DreamWorks execs Steven Spielberg, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg, USA Today reports.
 
Hillary, running for Senate in New York, isn't the only out-of-towner to benefit. The Left Coast gives even to Senate and House candidates whose districts are thousands of miles away. For example, movie director Sydney Pollack, Motown founder Berry Gordy and music producer Quincy Jones have each given $1,000 to Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass.
 
Of the $19 million given by the arts and entertainment set since 1999, Democrats have raked in more than twice as much as Republicans, according to a USA Today analysis.
 
The main beneficiaries are Gore, Hillary and failed Democratic presidential candidate Bill Bradley, with Republican George W. Bush trailing in fourth place.
 
"There's a connection between the Clintons and Hollywood that seems to be enduring beyond Bill, and (Hillary's) taking advantage of that," said Larry Makinson, executive director of the Center for Responsive Politics, which follows campaign contributions.

Folks, Come November are you going to vote
to rid our Nation of the Traitors within??
If you don't then our Children will be the sacrifice
necessary to achieve The Total State!
[remove your child from the corrupt government
schools(?) your child is being brain-washed daily
just like Elian is being re-indoctrinated.]
 
"A nation can survive its fools and even the ambitious.
 
But it cannot survive treason from within.
 
An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for
he is known and he carries his banners openly against the city.
 
But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely,
his sly whispers rustling through all alleys,
heard in the very halls of government itself.
 
For the traitor appears no traitor; he speaks in the accents familiar to
his victim, and he wears their face and their garments and he appeals to
the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men.
 
He rots the soul of a nation; he works secretly and unknown in the night
to undermine the pillars of a city;
he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.
 
A murderer is less to be feared. The traitor is the plague."
 --- Cicero in a speech to the Roman Senate, as recorded by Sallust
