4. I just asked my best friend tonight
(who works in "the industry" in Hollywood) if the economy had affected his industry much. He didn't feel it had. I was surprised that almost 40% of the respondents felt things were okay, then I thought that might be because of the biz??? :shrug:

6. New Line is laying off 450 and folding 40-50 into Time Warner.
My Emmy nominated friend (DP) hasn't had steady work for a looooong time. The strikes last fall and winter left a lot of people without pocket change... Of course, I'm on the East coast, but friends in "the industry" here can't even get temp jobs.

10. That's so sweet -

17. K & R This Whole Thing Makes Me Sick...
So the elites want to label Obama an elite? :puke:

Has this country been so brainwashed and dumbed down to think that all is rosey or that there isn't frustration and anger out there? And how dare someone even hint that this is the case!

I've avoided hopping into the DU-Pit, but this stunt (and yes, I believe it was) by Camp Clinton is not only backfiring but turning her campaign into a total farce.
