Speaking of Obam-ified “art”…

Did the National Endowment for the Arts subsidize actress Victoria Rowell’s dress at the Emmy Awards? (h/t Allahpundit)

    Actually, I had always thought Victoria Rowell was pretty hot. She’s still good looking, but now, she’s just another brain-dead bimbo.

    Maybe she should audition for Girls Next Door II.

    Never heard of her. But now I will be watching for her name in any movie I might be interested in seeing…so I can skip it. I seldom go to movies these days, nor do I watch the narcissistic, disgusting diplays of the “awards” shows. So most of these people are unfamiliar to me. In fact, I heard a list of the shows up for Emmy this year and I only recognized one of them!

    Why do you make fun of a 50 year old out of work actress who gets her red carpet photograph in TMZ, IMDB, and elsewhere?

    http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005389/

    I never heard of her before or saw her before, but she was on Young and Restless for 400 episodes from 1990 to 2007. She co-starred with Dick Van Dyke on 176 out of 178 episodes of Diagnosis Murder from 1993 to 2001. So she had two gigs from 1993 to 2001.

    It’s the sort of idiocy that no-doubt happened in the midst of FDR’s “New Deal,” when he was taking Hoover’s policies and putting them on steroids, and making an ordinary depression “great.” The propaganda machine back then was JUST as bad as it is now with Obama, but FDR’s media simply mirrored OTHER fascist governments during the 1930’s.

    And, just as Obama is copying FDR in this instance, he’s going to do the same by exacerbating a poor economic period, and making it into a catastrophe–only THIS time the American people aren’t going to fall for it. FDR won three re-elections, but Obama will only have his kook-fringe and 95% of the Black vote in 2012.
