In an opinion piece posted on Wednesday by Russell Simmons, the media mogul and avid President Obama supporter commends Stacey Dash‘s “courage” to express her political opinions.
Simmons says that while he doesn’t agree with her endorsement, the Clueless actress has every right to support and vote for Gov. Mitt Romney.

He states:
“Last night I had the pleasure of dining with Stacey Dash. After dinner we went over to Bungalow 8, where we were joined by a whole bunch of very famous Hollywood liberals, much to my pleasure and to her discomfort. Everyone enjoyed beating her up about her support for “Money” Mitt Romney (and this was after I had already grilled her in the car.) I was baffled by how someone so smart could support a guy “who could care less about 47 percent of our country” – a guy who wants to turn the cabinet room into a board room and sell America off to his rich friends, while stashing their money in off-shore bank accounts. A guy who hasn’t told the truth to the American people about where he stands on the important issues, constantly erasing his Etch A Sketch depending on who is watching. A guy who will turn back equality for women, blacks, Latinos and gays. I could certainly go on and on, but let’s just say…”Money” Mitt works for the corporations. Stacey and I didn’t agree on much.”
