August 26, 2004 -- GEORGE Bush-bashing celebs have joined forces with Moveon.org on a new series of campaign commercials. The celeb-studded spots feature the voices of Matt Damon, Scarlett Johansson, Martin Sheen, Rob Reiner and Ed Asner and star Rebecca Romijn-Stamos, Woody Harrelson, Illeana Douglas and Margaret Cho. Janeane Garafalo hosted Tuesday night's kick-off at Hammerstein Ballroom, billed as "10 Weeks: Don't Get Mad, Get Even!" Howard Dean, Kevin Bacon, Edie Falco, "School of Rock" director Richard Linklater and Al Franken fired up the faithful. Musical guests included The Roots, Natalie Merchant, Moby and Perry Farrell, who joined forces for Jane's Addiction's "Idiots Rule," in honor of the incoming Republican National Convention
If boobs were brains, this mob would be rightfully entitled to rule the world, instead of just pretending to be. Other than that, these pretentious semi-literate monuments to vanity are beyond parody. Can there be anyone, anywhere, so stupid as to vote for a candidate on the basis of some vapid movie-star pseudo-person's recommendation? Actually, it appears that there are many such people and that, friends, is one of the central issues of our time.
