OFFICIAL BLACKLIST FOR APRIL 2007
Al Gore - Yukkin it up with his limousine liberal friends while wasting carbon traveling in a plane. What a hypocrite!
Nancy Pelosi - You cannot offer friendship to tyrants and murderers without advancing the cause of tyranny and murder.
Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA) - First the Democrats want to shut down the wiretapping program, now this bozo wants the RNC to turn over e-mails to the government. Make up your mind!
John Edwards' Wife - What's the big deal about her cancer? I mean her husband can talk to the dead, right?
Maureen Dezell - This little bookworm seems to think there's something wrong when "we think of Joe McCarthy rather than Eugene McCarthy when we think of Irish-American politicians." Excuse me, did Clean Gene ever get an entire movement named after him? Is he synonymous with an era in American history? No? Then cry me a friggin river, lady.
CBS News Correspondant Allen Pizzey - Says McCain "talking utter rubbish". Then in the very next question, he spouts something about "objectivity." Hey, how about sticking to the facts, Pizzey?
Geraldo Rivera - Stop trying to defend illegal immigration you little weirdo. Don't you have a mobster's vault to open or something?

I don't usually read The New Yorker, except for some of the occasional Bob Mankoff cartoons, but this article about "24" - a show I highly recommend, by the way - and its earnest creator, fellow freedom fighter Joel Surnow.
First of all, no one ever calls to tell me these things. You think I signed off on the rights for Warner to use my likeness in Good Night and Good Luck? Hell no. All I got was a complimentary Daffy Duck tie. It's not worth fighting these Hollywood types for libel, since most court cases or whatever the hell occur during the day. If there's one thing I've learned, it's that some wars just aren't worth fighting.
Secondly, and this is just me talking, but I think I'd make a pretty damn good leading man. I mean, they made a whole damn movie about Roy Cohn. How's about Ol' Tailgunner Joe gettin' some of that limelight?
Finally, Hollywood's still angry because I had the cajones to call a spade a spade and root out Commies deeply entrenched in the film brigade. "The blacklist" - bah! If anything, I'd call it a protecting-America-list. The left just doesn't understand the extreme amount of influence a screenwriter wields in his hands in regards to global politics. You think the Iron Curtain would have fallen without David Mamet?
current mood:
ornery
In recent years, Surnow and Nowrasteh have participated in the Liberty Film Festival, a group dedicated to promoting conservatism through mass entertainment. Surnow told me that he would like to counter the prevailing image of Senator Joseph McCarthy as a demagogue and a liar. Surnow and his friend Ann Coulter—the conservative pundit, and author of the pro-McCarthy book “Treason”—talked about creating a conservative response to George Clooney’s recent film “Good Night, and Good Luck.” Surnow said, “I thought it would really provoke people to do a movie that depicted Joe McCarthy as an American hero or, maybe, someone with a good cause who maybe went too far.” He likened the Communist sympathizers of the nineteen-fifties to terrorists: “The State Department in the fifties was infiltrated by people who were like Al Qaeda.” But, he said, he shelved the project. “The blacklist is Hollywood’s orthodoxy,” he said. “It’s not a movie I could get done now.”
