Malibu Beach, California—Cher, the legendary, ageless star, a seductive songstress of stage and screen, was reported October 31 by Deborah Wilker of Yahoo News to be highly agitated as she considered the prospects of a George W. Bush electoral victory. Ms. Wilker writes: “Cher is so panic-stricken at the thought of Texas Gov. George W. Bush leading the free world that she's delayed the London recording sessions for the follow-up to Believe so she can do whatever possible to keep him out of office. She quotes Cher as saying: "If you're black in this country, if you're a woman in this country, if you are any minority in this country at all,” she asked, “ what could possibly possess you to vote Republican?” The Advocate reports Cher's asking WallofSound.com: "Has everyone lost their f**king minds? Doesn't anybody remember the illustrious Reagan-Bush years, when people had no money and no jobs? What has happened to people's memories? It's like they have Alzheimer's or something." Cher takes the long view, pointing to the dangers of a Bush-appointed High Court: “If you think the president is an ass, fine--after four years you can vote him out. But the Supreme Court - that's 30 years! The Jerry Falwells of this world will be right in your back pocket. You won't have one f--king right left." |
