Default James Cameron: Holy ****
But, but, but, are you accusing progressives of being 'hypocritical'?

Umm, did you not watch avatar? I'd suspect more people follow James Cameron than Sarah Palin.

If you think watching a shitty movie with nice special effects makes you a supporter of the director's whinging political views, all of the USA must be liberal. And yet, I did not say this. All I said is due to the fact that Avatar was such a blockbuster would have more people following him than Palin. Much in the way that TEF stalks her, I'm sure a few conservatives follow his feed as well.

So in Ben's world, subscribing to a Twitter feed is "stalking" now? WTF.

He's saying he wants to shoot them. Palin's trying to get other people to shoot people for her.

Big difference.

And they would be mistaken, because James Cameron has negligible political clout. How does that address my cogent question as to whom has more people following him? Just because you liked the movie doesn't mean you are a leftist, sure. But leftists are far more likely to watch Avatar.

Food for thought: during the runup to the 2004 election, just about everybody in Hollywood, down to whoever was "best boy" for Gigli, campaigned against W. W still, amazingly, won, despite the immensely unpopular Iraq war on his back. Question. Does 48 percent of the population of the USA constitute negligible political clout? Two, are you asserting Kerry's political clout then is about equal to Cameron's today? Terrible analogy.

Palin's using a metaphorical slogan to get her party elected, Cameron is talking about shooting people.
Cameron didn't tell people to go to a sight listing specific targets, while Palin did. This is pretty pathetic even by your standards.

It doesn't say AGW; I presume he knows of the distinction.


The "Avatar" director was equally unsparing in his comments about those who don't accept global warming as fact.

"That's right," Cameron said. "I want to call those deniers out into the street at high noon and shoot it out with those boneheads."

Turning more serious, he added: "Anybody that is a global warming denier at this point in time has got their head so deeply up their ass I'm not sure they could hear me."

So, Cameron is pro gun-rights and believes that violence is sometimes the answer.

What do you lefties think about that?

Somebody cares about James Cameron's political views?

That said, what he said was crappy.
