Fey says Palin impersonations has not helped 30 Rock

Here’s proof that the television industry does not care about ratings or what the audience wants to see: 30 Rock was renewed for a 6th season and has won many Emmy Awards while it’s ratings remain low. But according to Fox 411 it receives “rave reviews from critics.”

Tina Fey, who co-stars with fellow left wing comrade Alec Baldwin on this hardly-watched program, says in her new book – Bossypants –  that doing Palin ‘gags’ has likely hurt the show. She says that she and Alec are viewed by “50%” of America as “pinko commie monsters.”  I’d say yes, but I’d also say that the percentage is higher than that.

She also acknowledges that they are both polarizing figures in American entertainment.

And yet, the show with low ratings remains on the air because “critics rave” about it.

These guys who run the networks and the critics who write about the shows, don’t care about what YOU want to watch. They only care about what they WANT you to watch.

And as a disclaimer: I’ve never seen this show so have no idea if it’s any good or not.

A Star Studded Line-up of Useful Idiots

In political jargon, the term useful idiot was used to describe Soviet sympathizers in western countries and the attitude of the Soviet government towards them. The implication was that though the person in question naïvely thought themselves an ally of the Soviets or other Communists, they were actually held in contempt by them, and being cynically used.

Jane Fonda

Oliver Stone

Michael Moore

Sean Penn

Leonardo DiCaprio

This could go on forever: Danny Glover, Demi Moore, Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins, Alec Baldwin, George Clooney, Rosie O’Donnell… the list of idiots is never-ending. And these people are too stupid to see when they are being manipulated by the likes of Chavez and Castro and dare I say it – but since Van Jones has, I guess it’s all okay now – BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA! Worst of all, we’ve made them rich idiots! Or elected them to the presidency.

But hands down the queen of ugly and idiots and ugly idiots is:
