Large List of Celebrity Republicans

[BlueAwards]

Here's a great list of famous Republicans....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Republican_celebrities

Be prepared to get agitated!

Pat Sajak??!?! Oh no! Let's hope Vanna is a good Democrat!

[AX10]

1. My Boycott List!

:D

[Bucky]

95. Did you see the list of Democratic celebrities? It's more impressive

...but it's clearly not gotten the same level of research that the Wiki GOP celeb page has.

[deadparrot]

2. 50 Cent: W is "incredible...a gangsta."

Says if his felony conviction didn't prevent him from voting, he would have voted for Bush.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[LetsGoMurphys]

32. are u sure about that??

n/t

[deadparrot]

33. So says the link...

:)

[LetsGoMurphys]

34. thats ridiculous i hope eminem set him straight n/t

[formernaderite]

54. my son heard that on MTV...

weird, huh? Of course I'm sure the GOP is over the top with happiness knowing a gangsta rapper is one with them.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

71. Oh it gets better:

"I wanna meet George Bush, just shake his hand and tell him how much of me I see in him," 50 told GQ.

I see mediocrity in both I don't know about you.

[gordonlamb]

3. Tony Danza!

[tridim]

4. That is not a "large list of famous Republicans"

Half of them aren't famous and the rest are already well known as republicans.

A large list would be "famous Democrats". Then again you could just write, "everyone else" and be done with it.

[BlueAwards]

9. I think it's a large list....

sorry :shrug:

[tridim]

17. Relative to the list of famous Dems?

Hardly.

[BlueAwards]

18. Never said it was - didn't even imply it nt

[tridim]

21. You win, it's a large list relative to a list of "people with three heads"

If Brad is 4'10" and you state that "Brad is tall" it might be true relative to 4'6" people, but on average Brad would still be considered short.

[BlueAwards]

25. Get a life

Find a larger list then, I don't care - why waste your time criticizing a fellow Democrat who did nothing but share information he found

[snowbear]

27. Blue.. Don't be mad at us !! :o(

Sending you a big hug!! ((( :hug: )))

[snowbear]

19. Hey Blue.....

Trust us.

It is NOT a large list. The title of your post is of one person and one person only's opinion.

Yours.

Sorry buddy ---- but by comparison, it's a TINY list. :shrug:

[BlueAwards]

20. OK - You've posted TWO TIMES about the list size...

FIND ANOTHER, BIGGER REPUBLICAN CELEBRITY LIST THEN!

My goodness, I go out of my way to post this and people are on my back about it's size.

I never once compared it to the Democratic list or even implied it was close. I simply said it was large. Nearly 200 Republicans celebrities is large - do you know of a bigger one?!?!?

Sorry for posting, way to drive people away from the site. I just donated today and am starting to regret it.

[LSK]

91. BlueAwards, there are over 80,000 registered users here

Dont let a few rude people ruin it for you. Thanks for the list.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

85. There are some on there that surprised me. You might be too young to know

some of the people - as some were well-known back in the 70's and 80's.

[stevebreeze]

5. not any great actors in the crowd are there?

You need empathy to be a good actor. Most actors on the list are movie stars not actors.

[WI_DEM]

6. Dennis Hopper!

has been a Republican since '88. He really did mess himself up in the 60's.

[WI_DEM]

7. Ever notice that most of the Republican celebrities are "has-beens"or

"never were". A few like Eastwood and Selleck who are on that list, have said in recent years that they are "Independents" not Republicans.

[shenmue]

8. Oh, jeez...

Phyllis Diller? Mario Lemieux?! Kevin Nealon?

Prince?!?

Martin Yan?!

That's really depressing.

:(

:thumbsdown:

[snowbear]

14. Shenmue... don't feel bad!!

Mario has only made one donation in his life. And while it was to Rick INSANEitorum :puke: it was 6 or 7 years ago!

Check out who the Commissioner of the National Hockey League donates to on the Newsmeat site. http://www.newsmeat.com/fec/most_popular_today.php

Hint: It's NOT Republicans!

[snowbear]

10. Pretty DISMAL list..... LOL !!!!!!!!

http://eliteleague.co.uk/forum/images/smilies/lol!.gif

And I have to wonder if some of those listed who have donated to both Republicans AND Democrats are also added on the Democrat support list?

Since Wikipedia can be edited by anyone, who knows what you're getting.. :shrug:

"Newsmeat" is a better source I think ~~~~~~~>
http://www.newsmeat.com/fec/most_popular_today.php

[BlueAwards]

11. Most of these are cited...

many by newsmeat

[snowbear]

15. It's a DISMAL list when compared to Democrats & shouldn't be called large

Check out the list of celebreties who prefer to donate to the good guys.

ReTHUGS can't hold a candle to them! http://eliteleague.co.uk/forum/images/smilies/lol!.gif

[medeak]

12. Kurt Russell?

Now Gingrich was being introduced by actor Kurt Russell as "a man I consider a friend."

[catmother]

61. that's the one that shocked me. don't tell me that goldy hawn is

a repub.

[RebelOne]

66. OMG, my heart is broken!!!! I have always loved Kurt Russell.

It's so hard to believe that he is on the side of the enemy.

[Hypatia82]

72. Kurt is actually a Libertarian...

has said so many times himself.

[RebelOne]

74. That makes me feel a little better.

[nickshepDEM]

13. I can forgive Jessica Simpson and Shannen Doherty.

:dunce: :dunce: :dunce: :dunce: :dunce:

[adigal]

29. I guess they had the oxygen to their brains

interrupted when they got their implants.

[nickshepDEM]

30. Simpson's all natural, baby.

:)

[Skittles]

43. yeah

all women's breasts look like uneven balloons http://www.awfulplasticsurgery.com/archives/005186.html

[Andromeda]

45. Nope. They've been pumped...

[adigal]

70. Have you checked out her lips, too, recently??

She looks like she smeared jelly on them after being stung by about 20 bees - ridiculous!

[davidinalameda]

16. I don't want Vanna either

[melody]

22. You know, I think those lists pretty much speak for themselves

Reptilicans (how proud they must be to count themselves among racists, homophobes, misogynists and mass murderers)

Don King
Ron Silver
Phil Spector
Dennis Hopper
Fred Grandy
Dean Cain
Shirley Jones
Dean Jones
Tony Danza
Bo Derek
Scott Baio
Pat Boone



Democrats

Robin Williams
Brad Pitt
Robert Deniro
Meryl Streep
John Travolta
George Clooney
Glenn Close
Matt Damon
Leonardo DiCaprio
Jane Fonda
Harrison Ford
Tommy Lee Jones
Tom Hanks
Dustin Hoffman
Nicole Kidman
Paul Newman
Jack Nicholson
Leonard Nimoy
Gwyneth Paltrow
Sean Penn
Robert Redford
Chris Rock
Tim Robbins
Susan Sarandon
Martin Sheen
Christian Slater
Kevin Spacey
Steven Spielberg
Barbra Streisand
Sharon Stone
Charlize Theron
Ted Turner
Alice Walker
Bruce Springsteen
Lewis Black

Yeah, they pretty much speak for themselves.

The only one that surprised me from the Regressives was Robert Duvall, and for reasons that make as much sense as being a Republican because Abraham Lincoln was one.

[snowbear]

26. Some of those on the reptilian list donate to Democrats too..

Scott Baio for example has given $1000 to a candidate in each party.

The only "Phil Spector" I could find on Newsmeat has only donated to one candidate, $900.00 to John Kerry. (Who knows if it's the same Phil Spector.. but it's the only one showing a donation)

Tony Danza has donated to both parties.

And I didn't check anyone else..

Are they hurting so bad to call them Rethugs that they add them to their list even if they donate to different parties?

[melody]

28. yup, could be

You bring up an excellent point -- I don't think Dolly Parton is a Republican (she has expressed differently to someone I know) or that Rob Lowe is truly a Democrat (he was very active in Ahnuld's run-and-stumble).

[last_texas_dem]

44. Dolly Parton being listed as a Repug surprised me, too

Especially considering the several antiwar choices on her recent covers album.

I was disappointed to see Dwight Yoakum listed as a 'pug as well. He's a pretty good country singer, and I didn't figure his politics would be in the Brooks and Dunn/ Travis Tritt vein.

[melody]

23. my boycott list, too n/t

[Lefty48197]

24. Shirley Jones, Robert Conrad, and Don King

Wow. They've assembled a virtual mob.

[laugle]

31. I don't believe Adam Baldwin is a republican?

He said he would leave the country if Bush was elected.

He was also best buds with Bill Clinton. Maybe it's his brother?

[Jed Dilligan]

36. That was ALEC Baldwin nt

[Jed Dilligan]

37. I doubt Dolly Parton voted for Bush

Jamie Farr is a surprise. But what crushes me is... Tom CLANCY is a REPUBLICAN? WHO KNEW???? :sarcasm:

[kdpeters]

42. I saw that too.

Did you check the source? Some New Jersey GOP site cited her GOP Babe of the week. If this is what passes for sourcing in the article, I have my doubts about several of those on the list. A few donated money to a single Republican candidate. Doesn't make them Republican.

[laugle]

39. Oops....thanks, your right. Is Adam part of that family?

Don't ask me why I got this TRIPLE POST???? I have no idea. Sorry....

[laugle]

40. Oops....thanks, your right. Is Adam part of that family?

[Jed Dilligan]

46. No. actually--William and Stephen are

But I think Adam is unrelated

[readermostly]

67. Daniel (also an good actor) is also a brother, but he doesn't seem too

conservative. Stephen does, however, but I may be wrong.

[laugle]

77. Well I wonder who Adam is now? N/T

[MissMarple]

89. Here's a link to Adam Baldwin. He's been around, you'll recognize him.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Baldwin

And Stephen Baldwin of the Baldwins is a born again Christian. He's on the list as having attended the Republican convention. He apparently had a come to Jesus moment after 9/11.

Here's a link for Stephen. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Baldwin

[laugle]

41. Oops....thanks, your right. Is Adam part of that family?

[dflprincess]

64. I wonder what they talk about at family gatherings

n/t

[anaxarchos]

35. Rip Torn?

I thought he had been "blacklisted" in the 1950's...

Go figure...

[indigo32]

38. They can keep that sorry list

except Nancy Cartwright, damn what was she thinking. Oh well... it was back in 98

[MrBenchley]

47. These kinds of lists always crack me up....

Quick, who actually thinks Eric Borgman is a celebrity? I'd bet even Eric Borgman's mom doesn't.

[CBHagman]

48. Oh, no, not Jane Russell.

:cry:

[RebelOne]

73. What does it matter? She's dead.

[slackmaster]

49. James Brown?

Good Gawd!

[Mad_Dem_X]

50. Dixie Carter?? LOL I guess

she must have really hated to do those little rants on "Designing Women." Julia, we hardly knew ye.

And David Blaine? Oh, my heart just broke...

[Orangepeel]

53. remember when they let her sing on Designing Women?

Years ago, I saw an interview with Dixie Carter and she explained that it was a trade. Whenever they made her give a liberal rant, they had to let her sing in a future episode.

[formernaderite]

56. Dixie's married to a repub....since forever

also an actor...what is his name? I had the hots for her some years ago...used to see her around DC too.

[cmkramer]

57. Hal Holbrook

She's married to Hal Holbrook. He did a few episodes of DESIGNING WOMEN playing her boyfriend although his character was later killed off. He's probably best known for playing Mark Twain in a one-man show. Wasn't he also the "Deep Throat" character in the movie version of ALL THE PRESIDENT's MEN? I see he was on THE WEST WING too.

Incidentally, I'm pretty sure Hal's a Democrat

[Bridget Burke]

51. Find a better source.

I like Wikipedia but it has its limitations.

This list gets posted every other month.

[Catchawave]

52. I like Newsmeat :)

http://www.newsmeat.com/celebrity_political_donations/

One big list !

[fhqwhgads]

55. you know...

...don henley has always struck me as an asshole. but looking at newsmeat, it's hard to ignore that he's apparently given like $700,000 over the past 25 years to democratic candidates like barbara boxer, ted kennedy, and harry reid, as well as progressive causes, including america coming together and emily's list. so now i guess he's an asshole with whom i happen to have much in common politically.

the $2000 to kay bailey hutchison earlier this year is a little tough to explain, though.

[MissMarple]

92. Don Henley seems more moody, to me.

I've never gotten the other impression. :)

[Habibi]

58. Ouch!

Arianna Huffington--100% to the 'pubs. Of course, that was back in the early nineties, before she wised up.

[MissMarple]

94. George Strait is such a big Republican...he has given them $240...total.

:)

[quiet.american]

59. Damn. Robert Duvall's reasoning is amazingly stupid.

"One guy asked me, 'How can you be an actor and be a Republican?' I can vote either way. But how can you boil it down to <political affiliation>? All the atrocities against blacks in the South were committed by Democratic sheriffs."

If he really said this, he's amazingly uninformed. It was those same Democratic sheriffs who went screaming for the Republican party when civil rights legislation passed under a Democratic president. Amongst other things.

He's got to be smarter than that.

[Wilbur_424]

68. It's the context

He's got to be smarter than that.
I feel the same way about many comments in here. BTW, that legislation nearly started a civil war in the overly Democratic South.

[quiet.american]

69. Yes, I know -- hence the word "Dixiecrat." :)

I've always found it fascinating that civil rights legislation (essentially, long overdue decency) caused a mass exodus from the Democratic Party to the GOP in the South. But kudos to the brave souls who remained with the Democratic Party to stand up for their fellow man.

[newyawker99]

75. Hi Wilbur_424!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[LynneSin]

60. They're saying Paul Schaeffer is republican because of a 1992 donation

http://www.newsmeat.com/celebrity_political_donations/Paul_Shaffer.php

Kind of weak if you ask me

[Catchawave]

62. Clint Eastwood on Newsmeat.....

...sounds pretty DEM to me :) I think Wiki's list is a little outdated?

[LynneSin]

63. Newsmeat is somewhat misleading

They have contribution information for like the past 25 years. So someone may have donated to a local republican 20 years ago but that doesn't make them a republican. Hell, I confess to voting for Tom Ridge for governor once and trust me, I'm as blue as they come (I wouldn't do it again not because of him being the Homeland security stooge but only because I won't vote for a republican EVER - not even my very liberal republican representative Mike Castle).

[dflprincess]

65. Not exactly the A list

n/t

[Blue_Roses]

76. what is with country singers

always supporting repubs? I know they all can't be that stupid. At least the Dixie Chicks see through his bullshit

[Cascadian]

83. Willie Nelson does not support Bush

<nt>

John

[Bucky]

90. Nor the Dixie Chicks.

Talent doesn't have a partisan affiliation. I've loved all of Schwarzennegar's movies. I wish he'd go back to making them.

[guidod]

78. Ben Stein, what a clown..

It's a pretty small list.

[Cascadian]

82. Buuueller?

nt


John

[hadrons]

79. Jessica Simpson & Shannen Doherty were brainwashed as kids ...

if you listen to their parents they never had a chance ... Rob Lowe and Billy Baldwinare "born-again" Christians and have brought into the whole program invloving kissing Repug ass ... Dennis Hopper in the late 80's realized just how much he loved his money

[fhqwhgads]

93. rob lowe...

...i didn't think rob lowe was a republican. seemed like his work on behalf of the gubernator was more about being friends with him than it was about political affiliation. maybe i'm wrong?

[Zen Democrat]

80. Steve Bing, Don Henley, Michael Douglas, Berry Gordy,

Jeffrey Katzenberg, Norman Lear, Rob Reiner, Sidney Pollack, Barbra Streisand, Marc Andreesen, Denise Rich -- these seem to be the heavy hitters in campaign donations to Democrats.

[Cascadian]

81. Alec Baldwin's little brother Stephen.

He appeared at the GOP Convention in 2004. Now a born-again Christian spoke at that convention. Reportedly backed Bush.

http://www.contactmusic.com/new/xmlfeed.nsf/0/EBA84E35154C23A480256EF9006FE031?opendocument


I wonder what big bro Alec thinks of all this?


John

[MissMarple]

96. They say they don't talk politics when they get together.

I heard that on an interview a year or so ago.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

84. Vince Vaughn! - Jennifer Anniston is very anti-Bush & anti-war.

That relationship ain't going to last very long unless he changes his mind real quick.

[Dawgs]

86. First of all, that's a short list of celebrities...

Second, most of these people are dead, has-beens, or 'never heard of'.

I'll take Clooney, Robbins, Susan S., Jon Stewart, and Chuck D. over anyone on any list they would ever put out.

[Hyernel]

87. Orson Scott Card

Which is sad since Ender's Game was genius.

[Walt Starr]

88. The wisest woman I've ever known told me something relevant

"You must separate the art from the artist."

[closeupready]

97. not Dean Cain!

Noooooo!!! :(

[rd_kent]

98. Scott Baio???? Say it aint so!

[ncteechur]

99. And 98 % of those on the list--well, the repubs can have em.

I don't want em.
