Hollywood: Occupied Territory & Affirmative Action

The Best Picture nominations were announced today. " Munich", " Good Night, and Good Luck" were based on the problems of the Jewish life experience. ' Capote" and " Brokeback Mountain" dealt with homosexual issues with ground-breaking homosexual recruiting in " Brokeback..". And " Crash" deals with race tensions in the Los Angeles area.

Quite a few other films which were comparitively wholesome and more broadly appealing were passed over. The nominated list reflected an affirmative action agenda toward perennial minority members of Americas society. Who identifies with these misfits? Other misfits and their lawyers? But what about the rest of us?

Hollywood has become an " occupied territory" of minorities, homosexuals and ultra-left leaning liberals who have lost touch with mainstream America. Look at ticket sales. Like all occupiers they will have to go home someday. In this case maybe they will just have to keep their complaints and queer behavior to themselves.
