			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Can that be a conservative voice making a new, fresh, albeit small noise from the radical left hills of Hollywood?</p>
<p><strong>Andrew Breitbart</strong>, that phenomenal website creator who created Drudge and the Huffington Post for their owners, today debuts his latest creation, <a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/">Big Hollywood</a>. He&#8217;ll be joined by conservative actors such as <strong>Jon Voight</strong> and <strong>Gary Sinese</strong> as they step out from the shadows and show that conservatives do indeed exist in Hollywood.</p>
<p>Will it make a difference? Maybe not, but maybe it will give a platform for others in Show Business to express their views without fear of being black listed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>God love the <em>National Review&#8217;s</em> Victor Davis Hansen for pointing out the differences between the experience of Governor Sarah Palin and dilatante Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg. He <a href="http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=NmU5ZTVlMWZlOTA3ODI3NWU3OTI2N2FmOTYzYjAwNjI">writes</a>:</p>
<p><em>The putative Caroline Kennedy candidacy for senator has had the odd effect of reopening the media can of worms treatment of Gov. Palin. Compared to Sarah Palin&#8217;s almost immediate immersion into crowds and public speaking, Kennedy seems like a deer in the headlights before the media that is either ignored or asked to submit written questions. Palin was a natural; Kennedy can&#8217;t finish a single sentence without &#8220;You know&#8221; or &#8220;I mean.&#8221; Palin&#8217;s family saga and daily grind were populist to the core; Kennedy is a creature of a few blocks&#8217; radius in Manhattan and Martha&#8217;s Vineyard.</em></p>
<p><img src="http://www.redundapundit.com/photos/palin/SarahPalinNYT.jpg" alt="Sarah Palin" hspace="10" align="center" /></p>
<p>Outsider and lower-middle-class Palin toughed it out in Wasilla for years of politicking on a 16-year slog through Alaskan old-boy politics; Caroline Kennedy in regal fashion apparently skipped voting in about half of New York elections, and has never run for anything.</p>
<p><em>Reporters swarmed over Palin&#8217;s pregnancies, and her wardrobe, but apparently took on face value that Caroline&#8217;s fluff books were really a sign of either erudition or scholarship.</em></p>
<p><em>Conservative Palin endured liberal Charlie Gibson&#8217;s glasses0on-the nose pretentiousness, and Katie Couric&#8217;s attack-dog questions; insider Kennedy I doubt will meet with either, much less sit down with a hostile questioner like a Glenn Beck or Bill O&#8217;Reilly. Her friendly New York Times &#8220;interview&#8221; proved an embarrassment—rarely have so many words been spoken with so little content.</em></p>
<p><em>But, no, the real embarrassment proves to be the media itself that apparently can&#8217;t see this weird unfolding self-incriminating morality tale: It is not just that Palin is conservative, Kennedy politically-correct (e.g., pro-abortion, gun control, gay marriage, etc), or Palin a newcomer to public attention, Kennedy a celebrity since childhood. Rather it is the aristocratic value system of most NY-DC journalists themselves who apparently still assume that old money, status, and an Ivy-League pedigree are reliable barometers of talent and sobriety, suggesting that the upper-East Side Kennedy&#8217;s public ineptness is an aberration, a bad day, a minor distraction, while Palin&#8217;s charisma and ease are superficial and a natural reflection of her Idaho sports journalism degree.</em></p>
<p><em>A few generations ago, Democrats would have opposed Palin but appreciated her blue-collar story, and applauded a working mom who out-politicked entrenched and richer male elites. But now the new aristocratic liberalism has adopted the values of the old silk-stocking Republicans of the 1950s—and so zombie-like worship rather than question entitlement.</em></p>
