Booking Ronstadt is Detrimental to the Bottom Line

How much do you want to bet Rondstadt never again draws the crowds she used to? She just pointed out her ignorance to her fan base - most folks will not drop down good money to be subjected to the anti-American opinions of a washed-up entertainer:

FOXNews.com - Foxlife - Aladdin Casino May Welcome Linda Ronstadt

This is fast becoming a major issue for entertainment industry agents, distributors, facility owners, PR/Marketing companies, etc. All the folks who bear the risk and expect to reap the financial rewards for booking entertainment talent for shows, movies, TV, specials, etc. These entertainer ignoramuses shoot themselves in the pocketbook everytime they open their mouths. If I was in that business I'd be adding 'no political soapboxing' clauses to every contract I offered. And I'd be suing the Sheens, Robbins, Penns, and now Rondstadts that directly sabotaged my profits by opening their ill-informed mouths.

It's different for the entertainers like Dennis Miller, Bruce Willis, Don King, etc., who when they talk politics at least make sense. But the Martin Sheens, Garafolos, Robbins, Streeps, Goldbergs, Depps, Penns, and now Rondstadts of the industry have talked themselves out of many a job, maybe for ever. If what came out of their mouths was constructive criticism or objective comment it wouldn't be a big deal. But what they spew is hate-filled invective, Moore-like lies and conspiracies, insults, profanity, and drivel.

Anyone who didn't see Sheen's God and Generals last year (which is most of you), who didn't see Garafolo's comedy shows (she, like Whoopi Goldberg, are booked less and less), who didn't see Penn's and Robbins's latest movies (which again is most of you), who will no longer see Whoopi's Slimfast commercials; is it, like me, deliberate? I refuse to drop down good money for a show, and then be subjected to Rondstadt-like left-wing prosletizing. I will ask for my money back everytime.

Just a quick reality check to Linda Rondstadt and all her loony-left buddies:

Hey Linda, et al! Just because you have a microphone in your hand doesn't mean that everyone wants to hear anything out of your mouth except for song. Stick to singing (or telling jokes, or acting) and leave real life to real people. Get over it, Gore LOST in 2000, and rightly so.

In case anyone isn't aware, invoking Michael Moore has become the kiss of death for entertainers and politicians across the land. When Tom Dashle loses his reelection bid, one of the contributing factors will be his hug of that fat, socialist scumbag. I bet Linda secretly wishes she'd kept her mouth shut, her Moore-plug can only help her along her road to oblivion.

Adios MF,
