Dalton Trumbo....Re-Polished

[paulitician]

Stewart and Corbett have been propped up by the usual suspects in the Communist/Progressive Press. They're both vastly overrated. I mean, the whole Communist/Progressive smug sneering 'We hate Republicans' thing is pretty old & tired at this point. It's been done many many many times before.

Stewart should have retired a long time ago. He started taking himself way too seriously. And Corbett isn't funny at all. Not sure why anyone still watches him. Riding Stewart's coattails i guess. He's just plain lame.

^ oh beegeezus Polly. You are worse than the OP

Stewart has always been way way overrated. He's kinda witty, but not the almighty 'genius' figure the Left has made him out to be. He certainly isn't worthy of worship. They're currently doing the same thing with Corbett. And Corbett is less talented and funny than Stewart.

It does explain why so many Communists/Progressives are completely clueless. I mean, getting your 'News' information from sources like John Stewart and the dimwits on 'The View', kinda says it all.

Let's remind all that Stewart served as a conduit for White House propaganda.

"Jon Stewart’s secret White House visits
...To engage privately with the president in his inner sanctum at two sensitive moments — previously unreported meetings that are listed in the White House visitor logs and confirmed to POLITICO by three former Obama aides — speaks volumes about Stewart and his reach, which goes well beyond the million or so viewers who tune in to “The Daily Show” on most weeknights." Jon Stewart’s secret White House visits

Wait, so Jon Stewart talks to the president privately.. And? What's the point?

Obama: Jon, don't let people know I'm a fucking moron

Jon: I hear and obey

Ha, Spot On.

 

[paulitician]

Anyway, the Communist/Progressive smug sneering 'We hate Republicans' schtick is very old & tired at this point. It's been done. Stewart and Colbert should go way. They're not funny.

The Low Information Dem voter still believes that McCarthy's huac blacklisted innocent Hollywood writers like Zero Mostel.

Progs lie

Truth is the first casualty of the Progressives Jihad to acquire political power

HUAC, the House Un-American Activities predated McCarthy by almost 15 years and was created just before WWII and outdated him by more than that. McCarthy was in the Senate NOT the House and had nothing to do with HUAC! What was that you were saying about low information voters?

You beat me to it.


These weird and fictional rants by Political Chic are followed closely by other low-info types and none of them question the facts of any of the links.

The daily show delivers news with a comedic spin, deal with it.

^ And there it is!

Progressives get their news from a Comedian

and you types get yours from blonde news readers.

And he's not a comedian, he's a satirist. Go to school to learn the difference!!!

Satire (from wiki):

Satire

is a genre of literature, and sometimes graphic and performing arts, in which vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, corporations, government or society itself, into improvement.[1] Although satire is usually meant to be humorous, its greater purpose is often constructive social criticism, using wit to draw attention to both particular and wider issues in society.

Progs get their news from a Satirist

There, better?

Wrong, they get their news from online sources, radio and TV. They get a satirical review and commentary from an entertainment show. It is nothing new. Late night TV has given comedy and satirical commentary for decades in the monologues and skits offered on a nightly basis. Stewart repackaged the concept and created a half hour long show instead of a stand up monologue.

He did a segment on it - very funny because the RW nutters have decided its some sort of grand plot.

Dummies haven't though tit through though. The visit was near the time he retired from his show so there's not much he would have been a "conduit" for.

What pisses off the RWs is that he works for good of our vets and the 9/11 responders. RWs agree with the Repubs, that military vets, police and fire fighters should shut up and die. So, RWs hate Stewart.

You should see how many Progressives still believe McCarthy Blacklisted Hollywood writers. I imagine English is not your first language or you would have understood what I wrote

Frank, in my tender years I lived through the early cold war period and am very familiar with the time and history having reflected upon it often. Don't try to baffle me with bullshit!

"These weird and fictional rants by Political Chic..."

Well...if they're 'fictional,' you should be able to show them so....

...but if you're a liar and a fool, you won't be able to.


Waiting.

Newsflash: Communists/Progressives ain't all that bright. You're dealing with numbnuts who get their 'News' information from Whoopi Goldberg's stanky ass...

6. "... compelled them to testify against their friends. Today, being a socialist isn't a crime..."
and "[John] Wayne was a founding member of the Motion Picture Alliance for the Preservation of American Ideals, a group dedicated to rooting out communists

Well, one good thing about this polemic....they're saying what I've said all along....socialist, communist....all the same.



a. "....the victims of the Blacklist are long gone (Trumbo died in 1976), and memories of that bleak, ignoble era..."

Let's see what the poor victims had to go through.

When anti-communism took its toll in Hollywood, the blacklisting took the “deadly” form of not having ones name in the credits, or living in Paris, or not being able to sell a teleplay for as much as three years. This for folks who had no problem with Ukrainian farmers and their children eating their shoes.


b. From “blacklist survivor” Norma Barzman about her ‘exile’ in Paris:
“We had dinner with Picasso every Tuesday night when we were at our country house in Provence. It was hard, but it was the time of my life.” (Dennis Hamilton, “Keeper of the Flame: A Blacklist Survivor,” Los Angeles Times, October 3, 2000)

The horror, the horror.


c. “Ten Hollywood scribblers who subscribed to an ideology responsible for murder by the millions refused to admit their membership in the Communist Party to a House Committee. All they had to do was ‘fess up. But they felt they had the right not to tell the truth, so they were briefly jailed for contempt.” (Ann Coulter, “Treason,” p.77)

BTW, when the ‘Ten’ claimed a First Amendment right not to answer the House’s questions, the Supreme Court refused to even hear the case. (THE SUPREME COURT: The Hollywood Ten)


d. "At the 1957 Academy Awards, Robert Rich won the Oscar for best original story of 1956 for The Brave One(1956). Rich was not present to accept the award, which was accepted on his behalf byJesse Lasky Jr.of the Screen Writers Guild."
Dalton Trumbo - Biography - IMDb


Of course, 'Robert Rich' was none other than the 'suffering' Dalton Trumbo....the poor, poor "victim" whose "suffering" amounted to having to write under a nom de plume....for enormous paychecks.

The horror.....the horror.

Trumbo's book, Johnny Got His Gun, long out of print but if you can find it, well worth reading. Note to the OP - he died before you were born. Hero to the left? I've never heard that before but then I had never heard of champion of the working class, Saul Allinsky until the idiot RWs latched onto him and his work on behalf of the poor.

I miss Jon Stewart for his very funny and very FACTUAL skewering both the right and left. He is not working on his farm in NJ, which he is turning into an animal sanctuary. He has rescued many and is known for his love of his rescued pit bulls. He is also continuing to work to get the worthless Republicans to give health care to the 9/11 responders who have suffered from many ailments connected to the toxins they were exposed to in the aftermath of the building's collapse. He has also worked to get the anti-America Repubs to stop blocking and obstructing health care, housing and jobs for US military vets and their families.

So yeah, I can understand why the OP and other RWs of the hive mentality would hate these people.

Johnny Got His Gun is the basis of the Metallica song "One".

So, you still don't understand my post. OK

 

[paulitician]

John Stewart and Colbert are not 'Political Satirists'. They're Democratic Party propaganda puppets. There is a big difference. Too many are confusing the two. Stewart and Colbert merely use their entertainment talents to serve their Democratic Party masters. That's the reality.

Your distortion and manipulation and subsequent interpretation of facts is what makes you dishonest. You thread disjointed facts into a narrative that promotes whatever agenda you are promoting. That is what enables you to challenge anyone to point out a specific "fact". In addition, even when your so called facts are shown to be only opinions and speculations, you ignore the challenges by deflection, diversion or other forms of evasion. It is typical for you to change the entire conversation with a new, long list of cut and paste to bombard the readers with irrelevant data.
You are simply demanding that your opinions be treated as if they were facts. Your opinions are not facts, they are opinions.
