I'm only in my 20s and I've always been conservative leaning.  As for celebs.....I think it is easier for older celebs to come out of the conservative closet because they have already established their careers and made a name for themself in Hollywood.  There are some in Hollywood who will not hire a conservative and this doesn't bode well for newbies trying to make it in Hollywood.  I also think that as you get older, you do tend to become more conservative.  You have earned and worked hard all your life and you don't want that taken away and given to people who refuse to work, etc.  You start to realive how much harder it is going to be for your kids and grandkids to achieve what you have because so much of what they make is going to be taken from them and given to someone else.  Now we have all this debt thanks to the Bush and Obama and we can't help but stop and think how our kids and grandkids and great grandkids are going to stay afloat. Also, I believe that the republican party is more like what the democratic party used to be like many many many years ago and maybe that in itself has lead older dems to become conservative.

I think there are some younger conservatives in Hollywood but they just don't want to bring out their political opinion so they have a better shot for their career.

Have you seen the two US Weekly covers, the one for Obama and the one for Palin?

I just love this email sent by former Clinton operative and Us Weekly employee, Mark Neschis, that went out to all media in St. Paul:

Thought I would send over our Us Weekly/Sarah Palin cover story, on stands Friday, if helpful in your coverage. Might be useful as an illustration of how the news is playing out.(Us Weekly has 12 million, mostly female readers)

What Obama needs to do now is put his money where is mouth is, and tell all his operatives to tell all their buddies on the blogs and media to cease and desist...if indeed he was sincere in his objection to this treatment.

Axis Of Bias

By INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY

Media: A major newspaper suppresses damning video of Barack Obama partying with pro-terrorism radicals. Meanwhile, Obama punishes news outlets that do their jobs. Fairness Doctrine anyone?

Psychiatry Ponders Whether Extreme Bias Can Be an Illness

The 48-year-old man turned down a job because he feared that a co-worker would be gay. He was upset that gay culture was becoming mainstream and blamed most of his personal, professional and emotional problems on the gay and lesbian movement.

These fixations preoccupied him every day. Articles in magazines about gays made him agitated. He confessed that his fears had left him socially isolated and unemployed for years: A recovering alcoholic, the man even avoided 12-step meetings out of fear he might encounter a gay person.

Darrel A. Regier of the American Psychiatric Association favors research but says it is not clear that establishing a diagnosis would be useful. (By Marvin Joseph -- The Washington Post)

He had a fixed delusion about the world, said Sondra E. Solomon, a psychologist at the University of Vermont who treated the man for two years. He felt under attack, he felt threatened.

Mental health practitioners say they regularly confront extreme forms of racism, homophobia and other prejudice in the course of therapy, and that some patients are disabled by these beliefs. As doctors increasingly weigh the effects of race and culture on mental illness, some are asking whether pathological bias ought to be an official psychiatric diagnosis.

I just cannot condone late-term abortions.  For that to be legal.....I just think that would be horrible.  If a child can survive outside of the womb even though it hasn't been born yet and then it is aborted.....that is just plain and simple murder and if we allow that....what does that say about us?  I think abortion should be legal with some guidelines.
