DiCaprio "Not Inspired" by 2008 U.S. Presidential Hopefuls (Barf alert)

IMDB.com ^ | 10 August 2007 | IMDB

[Hazzardgate]

Actor Leonardo DiCaprio has decided not to campaign for any of the 2008 U.S. presidential candidates, because none of the politicians in the running "inspire" him.

The Blood Diamond star, 32, was a staunch advocate of Democratic hopeful Senator John Kerry during 2004's presidential election and even traveled across 14 states to rally support and raise funds for him.

But DiCaprio admits the frontrunners for 2008's election - Democratic candidates Senator Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama and Republican Ron Paul - have yet to catch his attention with their environmental policies.

He says, "I'm still on the fence about it, to tell you the truth. I have yet to hear a candidate that has clearly laid out their environmental policy in a way that is inspiring to me." Referring to Senator Kerry's previous election campaign, DiCaprio adds, "I thought he had an amazing environmental policy. But I have yet to hear a candidate that has compared in that regard. I'm waiting for the right questions to be asked, and for these candidates to give really clear responses to what they're going to do in a tangible way - not a lot of rhetoric. I want to hear hardcore facts."

[Hazzardgate]

WTF?! Has the MSM decided that Ron Paul is the Republican front runner?

[yldstrk]

Oh darn.....that is a shame.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Looks like Leonardo wants to follow in Alec Baldwin's footsteps.

[showme_the_Glory]

I thought he drowned?

[ParityErr]

Who cares what a 12 year old twit things anyways.

[italianquaker]

No they just cant tell the difference from his positions and obama/hillary positions

[ParityErr]

things = thinks.

[Zathras]

Proof enough for me that the wacko-left is pushing Ron Paul.

[jrooney]

I am “Not Inspired” by DiCaprio. I guess that makes us even.

[imahawk]

And the red staters are not impressed with leos’ acting ability either

[MaestroLC]

Maybe he should worry more about his fading acting career.

[Hazzardgate]

Yep, that’s what is going on for sure.

[Sonora]

Would this go into the category of insanely silly?

[mefistofelerevised]

Could you please correct the title. It’s DiCrapio.

[Hazzardgate]

I just posted it because of the article’s mention of Ron Paul as “the Republican frontrunner”. What a load of BS!!!

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Sam Goldwin was right: Who the Hell wants to hear actors talk?

[Bommer]

WOW!!! MY GOSH!!!!! WHO CARES?

[Ouderkirk]

Leonardo who???

[bboop]

And I am certainly not inspired by him. “Ask not what your country can do for you” ... buddy.

[DesertSapper]

Who in hades gives half a care about what "Leo" thinks about the candidates?

Last time I checked he has only one legal vote just like you and I.

[TChris]

The words “DiCaprio” and “Not Inspired” seem to go together quite naturally.

[keepitreal]

Another washed up actor heard from.

And Leonardo, as far as your acting is concerned, it was never inspired.

[ex-snook]

Hey I’m not inspired either. We are about to get the best president that money can buy. Since money is ‘speech’ those without enough ‘speech’ won’t get heard.

[ArrogantBustard]

That’s OK ... I’m not particularly inspired by Leonardo DiFaggio.

[Califreak]

Beat me to it!

[garyhope]

The only “environmental” issue that I’m worried about is the Islamofascists nuking American cities. That’s going to be a bad day, month, year for everyone on the planet.

Then I worry about self-appointed political spokesmen like DiCaprio and all the other Hollywood nit wits thinking that their political opinions matter a whit.

Then I worry about the left, the msm and the college professors totally destroying freedom, rational thought and America.

Those are the big “environmental” issues for me. That is what inspires and terrifies me.

[evets]

IM IN UR HOME PAGE STEALIN UR PICS

[Califreak]

Then I worry about the left, the msm and the college professors totally destroying freedom, rational thought and America

Don’t forget the idiot judges, lawyers and the ACLU.

Ah, nevermind, the left covers that.

[lonerepubinma]

Okay Leo, Explain his kerry’s enviomental policy. Explain any policy Kerry had. All he ever said during the campaign was that he had a “Plan” What a dope.

[jagusafr]

Yeah, my give-a-damn’s busted.

[garyhope]

Sorry, I did forget them. The list is very long.

[Vigilanteman]

Here is DiCaprio's educational resume from a friendly birographer:

DiCaprio attended Canterbury Elementary and John Marshall High School, before attending the Los Angeles Center for Enriched Studies.

So he went to a nice preppy high school? Apparently, this makes him a scientist.

[tennteacher]

We are not amused.

[surelyclintonsbaddream]

Actually, I think this is great. Maybe others will be inspired by his thinking and not vote for Hillary. Anything to keep her out

[Vanbasten]

Ron Paul? WTF!

If freerepublic is any indication of the modern conservative movement (and yes it is), than Paul barely registers on the radar. Yeah, we have a few Paulinians, but there are many more opposed to him here.

[Califreak]

It is a long list, ain’t it?

[billygoatgruff]

yes, I heard he went down.

[Enchante]

"the Los Angeles Center for Enriched Studies"

LOL. Well I'm certainly going to rely upon the expertise of a leftist boy actor who has attended such a world-renowned scientific institution.

[Califreak]

While you’re at it, could you explain Kerry himself?

[wjcsux]

Who give a rat’s ass what this piece of fag bait says or thinks?

[RC2]

OH no! DiCaprio isn’t going to vote? I guess I have to listen to him and not vote either. I’m so glad he has all the answers.......................NOT!

[johnny7]

[CHEE]

What say we draft the team of Decrapo (Pretty Prez) and Baldwind (Ugly Vice Prez) as the DimOcrats candidates. They could count on Holow Would backing. These two losers would be a shew-in to lose bigtime in 2008.

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

Republicans are sooooo clueless!

[xcamel]

right...

This kid’s a turd.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Has the MSM decided that Ron Paul is the Republican front runner?

No, they deliberately did this to make Paul look like a moonbat.

Paul opposes global warming and other environmental BS.

[TexasMatty]

Dr. Paul does a good enough job of making himself look like a moonbat, I don’t think he needs the MSM’s help!

[timydnuc]

Gee, we are all waiting, breathlessly, for what Leo says. The sad thing is, there are people that are waiting.

Note to Leo: you are an ACTOR, not a political scientist, nor are you a PhD in anything. You are not the average Joe that goes to work everyday, and you are not a truck driver, nor are you a coal miner. You are not a doctor, a lawyer, an engineer, or a construction worker. You are not a cop, or a firefighter, or a contractor. In short, you are none of us and we have more interest in the elections than you because, dear Leo, we are much more effected than you.

So, Leo, keep your bithering, uneducated, communist rantings to yourself. It keeps about 10 people from making an informed decision as to whom will govern them. That's important, in case you never read that.

[no dems]

Has the MSM decided that Ron Paul is the Republican front runner?

Has the MSM decided that anyone cares what Leonardo DiCaprio thinks?
