Get educated, America!!!

Jesus H. Christ.....has anyone seen the video clips of this idiot, Sarah Palin, being interviewed, off book, in Michigan?  It's worth a trip to www.crooksandliars.com....where there is a whole bunch of information on just how stupid both the republican presidential candidates are.  I seriously cannot understand how anyone with half a brain could vote for a McCain/Palin ticket.  These two and their pathetic campaign managers just out-right lie about everything.  They never answer any question with any specificity.  Matt Damon's commentary on the absurdity of Palin being one "McCain fall in the shower" away from being president of the USA is perfect.  This little, spiteful, ignorant hockey mom with absolutely no experience with anything that is crucial to the future of the U.S. will have her finger on the war button that apparently GOD is guiding.  COME ON, people! How stupid can you be?  Just the fact that McCain and her got this far makes America look like a bunch of morons.  It is bad enough that these two are so ignorant about worldly affairs or even geography, but they far surpass the idiot meter max by lying through their teeth about what they know and what they will do to solve our many problems.  Then they have the audacity to call Barrack Obama an elitist?  You both deserve a smack....Obama is a perfect example of the American Dream.  He is multi-racial, was raised by a single mother and his grandparents, came from nothing and became something through hard work, determination and strength of character.  Furthermore, he's articulate and intelligent enough to know what he doesn't know and go out and remedy that deficiency with action instead of basking in ignorance much like a pig in it's own excrement, like McCain/Palin do.  His trip to Europe is a classic example of his dedication to his future job as president.  He came up as many Americans did....the hard way and blazed a path to success without the padding of privileged family.  McCain/Palin and the whole RNC have a lot of nerve calling him an elitist.  I can't wait until the debates start up so I can watch Obama and Biden tear McCain and Palin into shreds.  They have NO SHOT at winning any debate with a highschool debate team, let alone the polish, intelligence and brutal honesty of Biden and Obama.  I just hope that all the people who somehow are planning to vote for the idiots, McCain and Palin will listen and realize that there is no other choice but Obama/Biden for the white house.  After the landslide victory for Obama/Biden, McCain and his arm-ornament wife can go get an accurate count on their houses, play shuffle board and take square dancing lessons.....Palin can go back to Alaska and watch the Russians flipping her off from her front porch and hopefully take some public speaking classes where she learns to use complete sentences.  Please go visit www.crooksandliars.com....educate yourself.

RNC = LOL

After witnessing the incredible gathering of forward-thinking, intelligent and informed fans of Obama/Biden last week in Denver, I can see how the RNC has a horrible case of penis envy.  When you compare the brilliance of every speaker and their poignant delivery of their speeches and the 85,000 enthusiastic supporters to the road-side carnival of ego-maniacs and disinformation panhandlers from the last two nights of the RNC's attempt at a rally, it's laughable on many levels.

First of all, it's so evident that most of America has had enough of the lies and deception that the current administration has tried to stuff down our throats for the past eight years.  The "magic show" is over and we all know the way you link your "Chinese Rings" together.  So what the GOP strategists suggested was to bring in a  "Hottie" to be the assistant to the magician.  Perhaps she'd add some distraction from the old, tired tricks.  Well, last night was a great example of the fact that you can put a new coat of paint on a Pinto, but it is still a Pinto.

Obama has conducted himself with class, depth, genuine concern for this country and the people who have suffered greatly from the past eight years of gang-raping...financially, emotionally, mentally, etc..  This man is such an amazing soul who is prepared for the role of leadership of a country mislead by the republican propaganda machine that he cannot be touched by any of the simple-minded arguments that the RNC tries to make.  The tone and insolent comments made in reference to Obama's service and qualifications were so adolescent that I thought I was hearing a warm-up act of questionable comedic design and flavor.  Instead it was a highschool beauty queen with half a brain reading from pages of a badly written speech, created by another half-brained republican.  Furthermore, whenever any reporter asked an RNC spokesperson to list anything specific that Palin has done, they had absolutely no response that answered the question.  She's done NOTHING in her brief time in public service that has shown anything other than a huge ego and an equal amount of ignorance.  Just a few examples of this glorified sorority house-master:  Referring to the Iraq War as "God's task"; wanting creationism taught in public schools; her stance on abortion choice; trying to get books banned from the library...????? and threatening to fire the librarian who refused to remove these "evil" books.  This kind of ignorance has no place in government, especially during such volatile times.  If she wants to engineer society within her limited views and stunt the growth of this generation and the ones to follow, let her do it in her own home.....it seems to have worked wonderfully so far for her.  Palin shouldn't act like she is ready to step into a globally important role of the U.S. government and be able to handle the tasks that are so crucial to this country and the world when she can't even deliver a speech with any depth or insight into the issues that truly matter to us all.

In closing, actions speak louder than words and the republican's actions have rested their case.  The best thing for Palin and McCain to do now is SHUT UP and take what the jury is going to give them.....a thumbs down.  The end of republicans in the white house is coming soon.  Rational thought and wisdom will reign soon and rebuild the respect and admiration that the world once had for us when we practiced what we preached.  Palin can then go back to Alaska and continue chasing bears off of her citizens' property at 3am.  I just hope for the bears' sake she chooses LIFE.

What's New with DD

Well, it's been a while since I've sat down and written anything regarding the latest, current events going on with me, so here is the latest.

First, I'm anxiously awaiting the air-dates for two big TV shows on which I play nice guest star roles.  The episode entitled, "push comes to shove" is going to be the second new show of the season on "Without a Trace."  In it I play a Russian bookie/collections guy named Yuri Ovsenko.  This episode should air sometime in late September or early October 2008.  Second is another guest star on the highly anticipated new NBC drama, "My Own Worst Enemy", starring Christian Slater.  This show will be a HIT.  I can sense it.  The writing is great and the director is a real man's man with a great sense of reality and authenticity.  Incase you haven't seen the commercials for it, it is about a black ops American agent who has two distinct personalities that are controlled by his bosses.  One is a normal guy with a family and a mundane job and the other is a highly trained "Jason Bourne - type" operative who goes out on missions across the world and comes back to his mundane life as if nothing happened due to his scientifically altered dual personality.  In this show I play the character "Goldteeth" and my partner in crime is played by my good friend and fabulous actor Mark Ivanir from "The Good Shepherd".  Christian Slater was a joy to work with as well.  He is a very genuine guy and I wish him success in this show and other projects he may do in the future.  

In other news, I've been doing a lot of voice over work for video games.  Most recently I have played the role of The Russian Commissar in the internationally acclaimed war game, "Call of Duty 5."  I also played Commander Oleg in the E.A. war game, "Red Alert 3."  In this game I'm actually on camera too, which is a different experience as a voice over actor.  Both these games are due out around Christmas time this year.  

The dark comedy movie, "Remarkable Power" that I shot a few years ago is still showing at film festivals around the U.S. and getting great reviews.  Infact it will be showing the last night of the Southern California Film Festival in Huntington Beach, California on September 13th at 6pm.  In this film I co-star with Tom Arnold, Kevin Nealon, Chris Titus and Kip Pardue.  I play "IVAN" the annoyed porn director and one of my original solo guitar compositions is in the soundtrack.
