Ben Affleck Says He 'Probably' Wouldn't Like Someone if They Voted Republican

Ben Affleck is smart enough to know an actor taking up political causes can shatter the illusion movies are meant to conjure.

Yet the Argo director and avowed liberal still sticks his foot in his mouth during a new interview with Playboy Magazine by insulting half of his audience.

Seems he's not sure he can be friends with anyone who pulls the lever repeatedly for GOP politicians.

The future Dark Knight (Affleck plays Batman in the upcoming Man of Steel sequel) said he can't help but consider an actor's politics while watching movies, and he takes that information to heart.

When I watch a guy [on screen] I know is a big Republican, part of me thinks, I probably wouldn’t like this person if I met him, or we would have different opinions. That shit fogs the mind when you should be paying attention and be swept into the illusion.

Affleck isn't alone in his lack of tolerance. Singer Katy Perry went so far as to not invite her parents to President Barack Obama's inauguration because they dared to call themselves Republican.

And I “Probably” will never see another film with the lib in it.

I’m sure he doesn’t want any of us in the audience, either. And Perry doesn’t want any of us. Let them make their loot off their dreg lib fans.

It’s amazing to me just how clearly someone can be heard while talking with their head nine feet up their _ss! It’s truly a miracle!! Hey Benji - why don’t you, Alec Baldwin and the rest of your Hollywood mental midgets catch the next plane to anywhere but here and spew your barnyard refuse to someone who really cares . . . like the overnight patrons at the local morgue!!

Well, if he doesn't think he would like a republican, he certainly wouldn't like me, a conservative leaning (small l) libertarian. So I wouldn't want to bother his concience thinking he might be taking money from someone he probably wouldn't like. Ben, I promise not to see another movie you're in, unless it's for free, preferably pirated!

And the lib woman age ungracefully and early...gotcha deer in the headlights look as they stumble out of rehab...

I have a theory that if they just got enough head bangin against the headboards a few circuits would connect and swing ‘em to the right ;)

Yea she refuses to invite her parents to a presidential inauguration where their daughter was invited to sing but yet she dates one of the biggest male-whores in the industry John Mayer after marrying then divorcing that FREAK Russell Brand.
I wouldn’t go near that skank with a ten foot pole.

That’s a good argument for all actors to shut up about politics.

Yeah. Another of the problems is that the few that you could calmly discuss an issue with and have a difference of opinion have become foaming at the mouth commies that see their great hope beginning to crumble and are getting desperate, irrational and violent along with the true believers.

I've had to stop even acknowledging some that I've known for decades, not tha I mind.

LOL! I love Robert Crumb.

He is so off the charts weird.

I still have no idea what his politics are.

He drew the blatantly racist "Angelfood McSpade", and when a documentary maker asked him if he ever got criticism about it he said, "Yes, but it was ALL from white liberals!"
