No, I'm not talking about World Cup Soccer. Or the NHL draft where a Yank was first selection.

A common beef of mine is celebrities who insist upon sharing their political leanings with the rest of us. But they do it in such a way that is so elitist that it sickens me. I know, I'm beating a dead horse, but it reared its ugly head earlier this month at The Tony's. Or is it Tonys'?

Courtney was in town to visit a Guatemalan friend and celebrate a birthday (6/12). Since she now is in theatre as a coordinator for annual gift giving for the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego, we watched part of the Tonys. Her executive director was there and Courtney thought he might have been with Chita Rivera so we looked for them.

In one of the presentations, a puppet and his operator informed some chemically enhanced presenter that he was a puppet and a Republican. "A puppet and a Republican--that rings a bell." Funny stuff. To the liberal attendees. But when you don't have the White House, Congress, or the Senate, I guess that's all they have.

I honestly don't know whom she was referring to, but it's the constant intellectual superiority the Democrats claim by innuendo that galls me. Be proud of your Party, (there are still some good ones, though the number seems to be declining) but not at the expense of the other Party, the Grand Old Party.

The last time I looked, our current President held degrees from Yale and Harvard. Be he can't be intellectual. He can't make good decisions for the country. He's a conservative.
