Who knew Pat Sajak had anything worthwhile to say? This is a mighty fine piece pointing out hypocrisy in Hollywood. A Dutch filmmaker produced an anti-abortion piece and was brutally murdered in return. The Hollywood elitists, who would tear the Bill of Rights to shreds if this happened to Aaron Sorkin, have nothing to say.
Is it just possible that there are those who are reluctant to criticize an act of terror because that might somehow align them with President Bush, who stubbornly clings to the notion that these are evil people who need to be defeated? Could the level of hatred for this President be so great that some people are against anything he is for, and for anything he is against?
As nutty as it sounds, how else can you explain such a muted reaction to an act that so directly impacts creative people everywhere? Can you conceive of a filmmaker being assassinated because of any other subject matter without seeing a resulting explosion of reaction from his fellow artists in America and around the world?
