Lying Hollywood liberals doing what they do best...

...LYING!

They claim that government removing sponsorship of the Arts kills the Arts is a flat out lie.

Any Arts that the people want will continue because those who want it will pay for it. Now, taxpayers who don't want it, will not pay for it.

Loving the Trump Presidency, warts and all.

The Arts, what ARTS ?

All it seems, coming out of Hollywood these days is Violence, Sex, Wars, and Filth and Cartoons...

Great CGI but that's about it for me...

Whatever happened to great script writing, directing and acting...

Give more money for this BS....

If funding the "arts" is so vital, why don't all the multi-millionaires in Hollywood step up and supply the money?

Oh, right. It's more than enough that they are lending their celebrity to the cause of making us pay for it.

They want us to pay for their birth control as well.
One can only imagine had Bernie Sanders been elected what would become of us.

This is precisely why I watch so many old movies. Let's hear it for the Great One -- Alfred Hitchcock.

Here's a thought - if the arts cannot sustain themselves, we do not need them.

Or, better yet, let the slime-dwellers like Madonna and Ashley Judd pick up the tab from their obscene wealth. Why is their wealth immune from the greed of the left?

Or here's another thought: How come the Clinton Foundation can't donate to the arts?

I listen to mostly locally produced shows that Npr produces, one of which is slanted heavily to the liberal side. If funding is cut, then the best shows will find a home. Advertisers will gravitate towards quality shows. The lesser quality shows that Npr puts out will thankfully die.

His comment on meals on wheels being cut is hyperbole. People in need will be able to receive meals.

Snoop Piggy Wiggy needs to spend some time in jail for this obvious threat.
