Maria Conchita Alonso Fired For Supporting Tea Party

Remember the great ad from Tim Donnelly and Maria Conchita Alonso that we shared with you the other day?  Well, because Maria Conchita Alonso DARED TO EXPRESS HERSELF as a conservative supporter, she's no longer in a stage production she was supposed to appear in next month.

Yeah.  So much for tolerance, huh?

According to the sourcelink, Maria was set to perform next month in a Spanish language version of "The Vagina Monologues."  Maria's choice of roles notwithstanding, the producer of the show, Eliana Lopez, said, "We really cannot have her in the show, unfortunately.  Of course she has the right to say whatever she wants. But we’re in the middle of the Mission. Doing what she is doing is against what we believe.”

And look. It's Lopez's show.  It's her right to hire or fire anyone in the production.  But it's just another reminder that liberal tolerance is basically nonexistant.

Apparently, Maria's use of the word "illegal" to describe immigrants here ILLEGALLY didn't go over so well with the locals either.  I will never understand why anyone has a problem with a FACTUAL DESCRIPTION of something, but that's a whole other topic.

Leo Lacayo, a local Republican put it best when he said, "It was a political ad, it was a funny ad. That anybody would lose employment over what their political leanings are is absurd.”

That's damn right.
