If you’re politically correct, chances are you’re not coming to one of my shows. I get to go onstage and say things that everybody thinks all the time, but can’t say out loud.

One thing you have got to do politically is to identify the ties that bind society together and try to strengthen them.

Being a parent of a boy who wants to wear sparkles and grow his hair long – especially when you don’t know where it’s all going to go – it’s hard stuff. I’m not being politically incorrect in acknowledging that, am I?
Personally and politically, I’m extremely conservative for who I am, but I’m also very careful in my tone. I don’t believe just because you’re a conservative that you’re angry. I can be plenty frustrated and not have to constantly portray myself as upset and angry at the world.

I think that people who make films and think they’re changing the world are sorely mistaken. If that really is your goal, there are far better ways to do it. I’m making politically observant films for audiences.
We don’t need to be politically correct. We need to be morally right.
You wouldn’t expect ABC or any of the mainstream networks to take a position on immigration, health care, anything. But at Univision, it’s different. We are pro-immigrant. That’s our audience, and people depend on us. When we are better represented politically, that role for us will recede.

I’ve never thought of it consciously… I say exactly what I think, and very often it’s totally politically incorrect. I get, always, chastised for it. So it’s not shtick. But I think I’m the one who says, ‘The emperor has no clothes.’
The gun lobby is certainly politically powerful, but it loses as many races as it wins.
Progressives know there is something very wrong when a nation divided politically has one major network operating as a propaganda arm of the Republican Party and 90 percent of talk radio is dominated by right-wing extremists.
