USATODAY.com - Celebrities declare own war on Bush

USATODAY.com - Celebrities declare own war on Bush: "In what's shaping up as one of the nastiest presidential races in decades, Bush-bashing is turning into an en vogue celebrity sport.


But unsolicited anti-Bush rhetoric, which appears to be spinning out of control, is alienating both Republicans and Democrats.
Recent examples:
- At a John Kerry fundraiser July 8, Whoopi Goldberg delivered several crude puns on Bush's name. Complaints led to Goldberg's firing as a Slim-Fast spokeswoman and admonishments from both parties.
- At a concert July 14, rocker Ozzy Osbourne sang War Pigs while projecting an image of a protester holding a sign with the images of Bush and Adolph Hitler. The image was part of a montage depicting war and protest over the past 100 years. After complaints, it was dropped from future shows."
