Everybody knows the Obama Administration is in thick with the entertainment industry. (Bought a DVD lately? Notice that they created an office, complete with scary-looking emblem, devoted solely to movie piracy?) In 2008, every entertainer from Neil Young to Henry Winkler was boosting a relatively unknown Illinois Senator as the nation's salvation. Obama is said to have sent personal text messages to Scarlett Johansson. (And any look at Michelle will tell you why.) Other than Wall Street fat cats, Hollywood provides the lion's share of funding for liberal causes.
Even in light of the incestuous relationship between Democrats and Hollywood, it was still shocking to see an Army recruiting commercial that was mostly a plug for the new Independence Day sequel. How is it that a U.S. military that skimps on weapons and stopped feeding troops hot breakfasts now has the money to shill for Hollywood? The advertisement in question says nothing about actual service in the real U.S. Army, but focuses on a make-believe force defending Earth from aliens. You know, if what Oh Blah Blah meant when he promised to fundamentally transform America was letting men in women's restrooms, forcing nuns to buy abortion drugs for their employees, and using the Pentagon budget to get everyone to see a movie, I can safely say that Estase isn't feeling the change.
