Political Nanny: Playdate With Jennifer Aniston

Posted by Madeline Holler

After the predictable outcome of last night's primary in West Virginia, Political Nanny has sent the candidates on their way to spin results and/or beg for more time. This provided her a quick break to get together with some Hollywood nannies, who themselves are working overtime as their charges ramp up political activities of a more international sort.

Seems the heartbreaking refusal of the Burmese "leadership" to quickly accept assistance in saving lives of last week's cyclone victims has gotten some big Hollywood names to do something even bigger: free it. 

From Glamocracy:

They are hoping to get a million people signed up to the U.S. Campaign for Burma, a grassroots activist group, by the end of the month with the campaign "Burma Can't Wait: A Million Voices in Thirty Days." Lots of Hollywood heavyweights have made PSAs in support of the drive, including Judd Apatow, Ellen Page and Sarah Silverman.

Go here to sign up or watch more videos. They're making a new one everyday for the next 30 days.

What do you think of the video? Too light for the weight of the actual cause? Or, whatever it takes to get something done?

I'm encouraged to have caring people stirred to try to do something positive in the midst of the disaster. May they be successful in their endeavers and the cause and not turn into the "Ugly American" while assisting.
