Re: Sean Penn: Peace activist or - - -
[colour=blue]Very good and very enlightening post Mark42! Michael Medved is having his talk show cover this speech this hour, (1:00 PDT today 3/26). I thought you stayed clear of politics here on DC. Maybe you were just in a 'very bad mood' as you stated when you stumbled across my Ralph Peters' thread a while back, that seemed to really upset you, (your own words). If you don't mind politics, then I don't need to post a warning on future threads here on DC that I start that involves politics. Please don't ask me to guess what you cornsider 'normal', as I wouldn't have a clue. Is Sean Penn "just another complete a$$?" Maybe; maybe not: I don't know the man, (so it's hard tellin' not knowin'). He may be just another fellow American that is missguided like those who populate the Seattle Metro area, and most major urban areas in the US today. I have friends that believe the same things that Mr Penn does, (and they are good people; just missinformed: that's all). What I do know is the fact that he is a talented and wealthy actor, and his speech was fairly lucid and fairly well stated (the well known postitions of the American Left). There is no need for the MSM to print or repeat his speech as the Left's positions are fairly well publicized, and Mr. Penn's positions are also fairly well known. Many in the MSM, (possibly the majority), hold Mr. Penn's positions as well. I hope all of you know that, if you don't I have a bridge for sale, (make ya a real good deal). Notice the relative moralizm America = Iran, (both have good people and terrible governments). Don't you remember the USA is just as good or bad as the USSR? He also called the people in America and Iran with whom he disagrees: 'haters'. I have been called a 'hater' here on iboats. That type of language is not new rheteric for the American Left, it has been here since the early 20th century. He agrees with Rosie O'donnell, who stated this morning that the 15 Brits captured by Iran, may not have even happened, (it could be our government) and Mr. Bush is just looking for a way to make war on Iran. Nothing new here just a little clarity: that's all. Respectfully, (and I mean it) JR ps; I really enjoyed this linc: Thank You Mark42[/colour]
