Have you read the comment Liberal Actor Ed Asner made when asked why the Hollywood Elite is not protesting Obama going to war like they did when Bush went to war? Here's the history of the issue.
In 2003, ahead of a U.S. attack on Iraq, a rabid anti-war movement in Hollywood included a TV commercial starring Martin Sheen and Sean Penn visiting Baghdad. There were online petitions signed by Ed Asner. Letters to President George W. Bush pleading for peace were signed by Matt Damon, Tim Robbins, Barbra Streisand and Alec Baldwin. Former M*A*S*H star Mike Farrell fronted multiple press conferences where celebrities denounced war. In interviews, Janeane Garofalo stopped identifying herself as an actor — she preferred to be called a member of the U.S. anti-war movement. Throughout the Iraq and Afghanistan wars the entertainment industry blasted Bush calling him all kinds of ugly names for going to war with Iraq. Where are they now?
Ed Asner says the Hollywood Anti-War Left Won’t Protest Syria to Avoid Feeling “Anti-Black.” They're afraid of being called "racists," something Obama opponents have been called for 6 years.
For the Hollywood Elite, The Black President gets a free pass.
