Movie Stars shy away from publicity....

(SAY WHAT?!) but only when donating to Republican candidates.
"Republican presidential candidates have been drawing support — and cash — from Hollywood celebrities, but few of the stars in super-liberal Tinseltown want to be publicly linked with the Grand Old Party."
At first I find it disheartening that these actors and actresses believe their reputation will suffer just because of a mere political donation. The left certainly is proud to dump millions into the Democrats' banks.
"They learn very quickly, if they know what's good for them, to donate to the Democratic Party," said Andrew Breitbart, co-author of "Hollywood, Interrupted." "If they were to donate to the Republican Party, they would be exposed to career-ending ridicule, period."
If they know what's good for them? Actually, sir, I believe if celebrities knew what was really "good for them" in something called REAL life and not Hollywood-coated life, they would donate to Republicans.

A laughable line: "Ms. Hatcher, who had lunch in February in Beverly Hills with former President George H.W. Bush, has repeatedly turned down invitations to be on HBO's "Real Time With Bill Maher." MSNBC reported that "a source" said "she's not in-sync" with the aggressively liberal host, prompting some to wonder if she is secretly conservative." Oh dear God, what if she is secretly conservative?!

Upon second thought, I'd rather our "GOP" celebrity friends in Orange Valley, or wherever they roam in sunny LA, keep their mouths shut and their politics out of our way. I'd prefer a few hushed conservative donors to loud-mouth Sarandons, Redfords, Gores and Moores, wouldn't you?
