The Hollywood Left is back...
...working overtime to raise money for John Kerry. Planned fundraising concerts will feature such heavyweights as Barbra Streisand, Neil Diamond, Bette Midler, John Mellencamp, Sheryl Crow, Robin Williams and Whoopi Goldberg.
The amount of cash these folks raise for the Democrats is astronomical. If you want to have some fun, check out this site. It tracks all political donations in the U.S. Try checking by zip code, and use something like 90049 (Brentwood) or 90210 (Hollywood) and just see what comes up. You'll be pretty amazed, not at who's giving but just the sheer volume of money. People give to a lot of out-of-state races as well as their own.
Of course, this is nothing new. Hollywood has been lined up four-square behind the Democratic Party since its birth. You could probably count the number of Republicans in Tinsel Town on one hand. Well, maybe two. Long live Charlton Heston.
