You call these celebrities?
Via LGF (link right) the full text of the celeb letter of support to Saddam is here.
The cumulative number of months that these people haven't worked is probably well into the 4 figures, as they say in Hollywood. And, how did these has-beens find out about the letter? Is there a celebrity mailing list? Did they put up a poster at the unemployment office?
You might ask, who cares what some celebrities think? Well, unfortunately, celebrities do have an influence on society. So, what they think, if anything, should be somewhat paid attention to at the least to know what to watch out for.
I wonder why fellow blogger Wil Wheaton - who parenthetically looks like Phranc's brother in his blogpic - didn't sign in the Star Trek veteran section? And, why wasn't the hottest Star Trekkian ever, Roxann Biggs-Dawson, invited to sign? Enquiring minds and all that.
