The politics of Alice Cooper
 

Link

it doesn't really matter which side they are on, i think celebrities who stump for politicians are pretty ridiculous. when i saw a link to this article i couldn't help but read it and laugh. first, because alice cooper is my dad's cousin and second, because i like what he said.

Alice is a cool guy--I met him once at a sushi restaurant in Scottsdale. Real nice.

I don't know what his politics are, but I'm curious as to whether he would have made the same comments if the artists mentioned we're against KERRY rather than Bush. Hmmmm. Never heard of that website before--WorldNetDaily. That's some seriously right wing stuff going on there....

oh yeah, they are definitely of the right wing nut variety. there are a few sites of that strain i visit because they do link to a lot of different sources. i couldn't care less about there personal exclusives, but i do like the availability of links.

I just don't pay attention much to celebrity politics. There probably are some well-informed celebrities, but, I would guess that many are, as Cooper puts is, "morons".

well, as Ben Stein said in an interview around the time of the war - "Martin Sheen is a very good friend of mine. Sometimes he just forgets that he isn't the president, he only plays one on tv."

I saw that on TV too.
Ben Stein is a smart person.

sure, but some people are smarter... they can win HIS money.

Mmm...right-wing-nuts....ooohhhh.....

Hey, stop busting on WND! They also do a print magazine, Whistleblower, which does something fairly innovative in terms of format ... they focus on one issue per issue, and provide a lot of information and opinion on that topic.

Speaking of Alice Cooper ... has everyone seen the Staples commercial by now? I saw it last weekend and was in hysterics.

ok, wolf - you know i lean right but even i say that WND is pretty far right. better than newsmax though. i don't have any problem with that because i use my bias-equalizing lenses any time i watch/listen to the media; but some folks will ignore anything WND says simply because of their far-right ideology.

That's more of what I meant ... people who discount anything appearing on WND solely because it's WND. I seem to recall them having scooped the major media a couple times.

I'm just saying I respect what Farah is doing with the site and the magazine.

I gotta say that any rock star appearing in a Staples commercial really has no standing accusing someone of being a traitor to rock & roll. The admonition against paying attention to celebrity opinions stands, though.

Considering that Farah is a Scaife puppet largely responsible for the Clinton Body Count and Hillary Murdered Vince Foster "stories," I have negative levels of respect for him, and give him even less credibility.

Wasn't that actually Christopher Ruddy from newsmax.com?

'Twas both. Scaife spread his money and conspiracy theories far and wide.
