Wait a second. Didn't you praise Samuel L. Jackson for producing an advertisement to encourage people to vote for Obama?

My answer was as clear as spring water. If I didn't give you the answer that YOU were looking for then that's not my problem.

You conservatives tried to throw Samuel Jackson under the bus for suggesting that race was part of the reason for voting for President Obama. I was showing you that Samuel Jackson has reasons that are not race related to support him. You conservatives are the ones who get all hot and bothered over race.

I didn't participate in that discussion, but nevertheless, you were not critical of Jackson for opining politically, as you have been with Dash, and you even went so far as to champion him. You are being a hypocrite on this issue.

How was I critical of Dash? I said that I wouldn't reccomend that movie stars, singers, ballplayers etc make their political views publically know for risk of losing fans and endorsements but please show me where I said anything hostile about her. She is not on the level of Herman Cain a man who I have absolutely no respect for so no reason for me to be bitter towards her. I just don't disagree with her politics and I don't think that it was a smart business decision on her part to make the statements that she did.

Do you have the same opinion with respect to Samuel Jackson? That he shouldn't make his political views public?

For the record, Miss Dash is smoking hot.

It was in poor taste him suggesting that he voted for President Obama because he is Black so yes he should have kept that to himself.

No no no no no. The issue is not why he supports Obama. It is that he is making his views public. Your opinion was that Dash should not make her political leanings known. Are you going to apply the same standard to Samuel L. Jackson?
