So has anyone verified whether VU's Maureen Tucker is now a teabagger?

Is this, in fact, really Mo Tucker?

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

1. Jon Voight is a teabagger too.....

....but his car isn't!

[Taverner]

2. John Voight, Kelsey Grammar, one of the Baldwins, and many more

Somehow It always surprises me though

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

3. Stephen Baldwin......and Cliff Clavin too

Sad, really.

[Taverner]

4. If I remember Cheers had a bunch of wingnuts on

Clavin, Frasier, Harry Anderson (oh sorry, he's not a Republican, he's a "Libertarian")

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

5. I thought Harry was a liberal

He seemed pretty angry after Katrina.

[Taverner]

6. Hell everyone was angry after Katrina

And I hope that Katrina changed his mind about Libertarian Ideals

I mean, according to libertarian thought, there would be no violence, no looting, just the market at work!

[Taverner]

7. Oh I heard on this board (no documents to substantiate it)

That Lou Reed went fundie xian after 9/11...but I don't know

Until I see verification, I'm holding out on that one

8. Why are you surprised that a bunch of no talent has beens or never weres

are right wing nuts.

The only thing that ever surprised me about kelsey grammer was that the people who produced his show expected me to believe that a pudgy doughy looking shlub like Frazier would constantly be dating hot chicks.

John Voight - he's famous for having a good looking daughter and having his car bought by George Costanza on Seinfeld.

And that Baldwin - Zeppo or whatever his name is - is a total religious wack job.

I think these are all people who are bitter that their careers have basically not been very successful.

10. Jon Voight was a was

Not a never was were

Midnight Cowboy?

[tularetom]

11. OK I concede that he is not a never were

But I still contend he is a has been.

I have a 47 year old daughter and a 44 year old son neither of whom even knew Voight was an actor.

Midnight Cowboy came out in 1970.

[Taverner]

14. Yes he is a has-been

But not a never-was....

And yes, his portrayal of his character in Midnight Cowboy was mesmerizing.

One of my favorite movies.

But he is not that character - he is a right wing nut, hell bent on stupidity.

[Taverner]

9. Unfortunately, yes Mo Tucker is a Teabagger

12. ack. this is why i don't read entertainment "news" -- it ruins it for me.

[BurtWorm]

13. Eh. She's entitled to her wacko opinions.

Doesn't change the way I feel the Velvets anymore than Johnny Ramone's Republicanism ruined his wall of sound guitar for me.
