#2 Nah, his political position had nothing to do with it. Frankly, I'm shocked that a Hollywood talent agency would even consider family values when retaining clients. There has to be some underlying issue.

Now I understand his great performance in "Glengarry Glen Ross".

#3 Baldwin has since apologized.

In the John Kerry fashion, no doubt - "I'm sorry you got in front of my bullet; I intended no harm when I pulled the trigger."

#5 OK, you're right, political position was a no-brainer error.

#7 His apology was to the effect that he was "sorry" he was driven to act the way he did and that he was equally "sorry" the tape was released to the media. "Sorry" means something different to our leftist betters than it does to we little people.

#10 ..Noticed though NBC has kept mum on the subject. 30 Rock has been steadily slipping in the ratings but has remained a critical favorite (TRANSLATION: NBC desperately wants to cancel it, but would lose face if it were to do so), so this might be their out.

#13 CAA's Song for the Day:

I was sent from planet Xiron to conquer the earth
I had a terrific plan -- I thought it would work
Tried to get the Earthlings all to kill each other you see
But it all went wrong and now I must decree...

You are worthless Alec Baldwin, you are worthless Alec Baldwin
You failed in every way and now my stock in you has fallen
Your career is stallin' and you're worthless Alec Baldwin
That's why I blew your head off and your children are all bawlin'

Planet Xiron is inhabited with Xipods like me
But also with Balmacs who are giant bees
The Xipods and Balmacs are at constant war
So we wanted a new home and that's what Earth was for

But you are worthless Alec Baldwin, you are worthless Alec Baldwin
You fucked up my whole plan and now Xiron is smeared with Balmac pollen
Your garbage needs some haulin' and you're worthless Alec Baldwin
Now I must return home a failure -- I'm afraid the pit of Kryrok is callin'...

Alec Baldwin has taped an interview with Rosie O'Donnell for ABC's VIEW, sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

She said she advised Baldwin against doing the interview.
During the session, to air Friday, Baldwin apologized for his tirade against his daughter.
He also explained how he wants out of the TV business:
"I have been in the business for over 27 years and I don't care if I do anything else in TV ever again."

Baldwin left CREATIVE ARTISTS AGENCY on Monday. No reason for the split was provided.
