If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

Outstanding!!!

Great letter by a great man
Good girls are bad girls that never get caught.

Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it, misdiagnosing it and then misapplying the wrong remedies.

Sorry, still not keen on celebrity political advocates.

Penn, Sarandon, Clooney, Fox, Busey, et al are still insulated idiots. The only thing Mr. Voight's letter does is prove he is smart enough to agree with me.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

They have the same right you and I do to say what ever they want.  We have the right to let it bother us or not.  If it bothers us to the point that we can't stand them, we can stay way from any movies/TV shows/music that they do.  There have been actors/musicians that I really wished didn't voice their political opinions and had it totally ruin my enjoyment of watching or listening to anything they do. 

One in particular is Tom Hanks.  I loved his John Adams mini-series on HBO.  If it were showing today I don't know if I would watch it.  They take the risk of alienating a good portion of the public with what they say and do but they have the right to do it.  Most of them are idiots and I didn't like them to begin with but there have been some that I kind of knew their position before but once they make it obvious in an obnoxious way I can no longer stand them and my choices for entertainment just gets smaller and smaller.
