Star power
Confronted by the left that offers Barbra Streisand, George Clooney, Alec Baldwin, Martin Sheen, Sean Penn, Robert Redford, Susan Sarandon, Janeanne Garofalo, and just about everybody else in Hollywood who is still working, Conservatives have had to rely on Charlton Heston, Bo Derek and a somewhat recalcitrant Tom Selleck. But not anymore. It's time to unleash "the big gun(s)": Jane Russell.
Veteran Hollywood Actress Jane Russell declared herself a "mean-spirited, narrow-minded, right-wing Christian bigot" to a crowd of conservative activists on Saturday.
The retired actress was making the point that she is tired of Christian conservatives being labeled intolerant when they stand up for their beliefs.
Russell's comments received enthusiastic applause at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Arlington, Va.
The 81-year-old Russell, who spoke on a panel called "Hollywood Needs Adult Supervision," explained that her son chides her for using the term 'bigot,' but she insists on doing so.
"My son said, 'Mother you can't say the word bigot because that has to do with nationalities and things.' I said, 'No darling, it's a verb. It means I can't stand these people who are trying to take the Ten Commandments off the wall, take prayer out of school and... take prayer out of football games.' It's too ridiculous," Russell said.
"The Lord put this country together or we wouldn't be like we are," she added.
Looks like the lord put Russell together, back in the day.
