Sean Penn: Socialist Hugo Chavez Is ‘Warm’ and ‘Friendly’ Man
CNS ^ | 4/24/09 | Nick Ballasy

Posted on 04/24/2009 2:12:25 PM PDT by pissant

Academy Award-winning actor Sean Penn said in a Huffington Post blog entry this week that the president of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez, is a “warm” and “friendly man” with a “robust sense of humor,” who daily “risks” his own life for his country in ways former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney “could never imagine.”

Penn also wrote that conservative talk radio hosts Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity “hate” the principles upon which America was founded.

Chavez, a frequent critic of the United States, is a military officer who supports neo-socialist policies and tried to take over Venezuela in a failed coup d’etat in 1992. He was elected president there in 1998, 2000 and 2006.

I hope Sean doesn’t mind losing all his money to Socialism. Our own glorious leader may eventually find him no longer useful to the party.

Sean Penn can rest assured that there are lots of us out here that will never again pay to see his worthless no talent movies. If more people hit actors, companies, and politicians in their pocket books.....maybe the morons would straighten up.

You would think that an actor could figure out that Chavez is just putting on an act for Penn. Penn is a good actor, but other than that he is a complete moron.

Is Penn dumb enough to believe his bud Chavez is a big fan of the principles upon which America was founded? Apparently so.

Sean Penn... If there has ever been a bigger Hollywood style useful idiot, I have yet to see one. He's like a carbuncle that just won't heal.

IMHO, the blovations of Hollywood numbskulls should not be allowed on FR.

Let them rant. They have nothing to say that will move the debate.

Stalin was a favorite of a lot of people in the Hollywood crowd back in the day, you’d never hear anything negative about kindly old Uncle Joe.

Incredibly idiotic. His friend Hugo Chavez fits that bill but he is too stupid to understand that.

One thing recent experience should have shown us is the icons of the Lying, Lunatic Liberal Left are not subject to the same rules the rest of us are. These Elitist bastards will be allowed to keep their ill-gotten gains, their summer, fall and winter cottages in Europe and The Carribbean, their long black limousines, private jets, etc, etc, etc.

We, on the other hand will be controlled in every aspect of our lives, including the clothes we can wear, the food we can or cannot eat, and the thoughts we can or cannot think.

Boycotting the movies of these navel gazing malignant narcissists is not nearly enough.

Sean Penn is one pathetic human being. Typical leftist. Never met a foe of the United States he didn’t like.

Boycott Hollywood.

The Japanese are courteous, reserved, and cultured and read about what they did to Nanking.

The Chinese are highly intelligent, hard working, and very cultured and courteous. I can’t fathom what they are capable of.

A lot of the most ruthless monsters are capable of being gracious, it’s a fundamental part of being disciplined.

It’s discipline that is the result of many, many years of keeping oneself on a tight leash and frankly celebs mistake this for genuine goodwill.

Sean Penn, what a ****en moron. I am sure he admires Hitler. On Chavez, I know he is anti-Israel. I wonder if Sean Penn’s father was a big Idi Admin supporter even after the Mt. Entebbe raid back in the 1970’s ?

Even on clothes. I am sure some of these petty dictators waiting in the wings would probably want to ban blue jeans. They were banned in other countries like the Islamic ones and the old communist as well. On being controlled, it is pretty pathetic that you cannot get a high flow toilet such as the 3 gallon per flush anymore for your house.

We, on the other hand will be controlled in every aspect of our lives, including the clothes we can wear, the food we can or cannot eat, and the thoughts we can or cannot think.
