It is difficult to see how someone so divorced from reality and so looked into sophomoric Anti-Americanism can shed light on anything. What is it exactly that he has illuminated other than an emotional attachment to the irrational?

He's had plastic surgery? He has a good case for a lawsuit.

The true irony is, the Terrorists want HOLLYWOOD dead first and foremost. The consider Hollywood as the corrupter of morality and Islamic doctrine.

Perhaps Redford will volunteer to be the first one to be beheaded by the Imams. (Wishful thinking?)

Just as soon as Redford apologizes for "All The President's Men".

Don't forget Redford's *The Milagro Beanfield War*, a sweet film ...

You know what? I've always thought the same. But the more I think about it, I think the "morality" factor is just a game with them. I think what the Terrorist really detest is goodness, character, Christianity and freedom. So they may see most of the Hollywood elite as their allies.

*sigh*

I think you're just confused again, bob. See, the CIA guy you played in "Condor" was very low level. Plus he went to a paper that was going to tell his story, so to speak. I believe your character talked to someone named "Jayson." Let me know how that went for you, mmmkay?

Now, that baldwin fellow played a character with a much higher pay grade than you. That makes him much smarter, right?

And much MORE qualified to call a press conference to explain why you two didn't use your CONSIDERABLE RESOURCES to help out "demand an apology" and "...put all our concerns on hold to let the leaders lead" (what a couple of slugs, BTW).

And when I think back to the protests in the '60s, I don't remember EVER seeing a monied, preppy blonde protester. "The Way We Think We Remember The Distant Past And That We Maybe Had A Relationship With A Character Who Also Has The Same Faulty Memory" was not the name of the movie, mmmkay?

Hi Tator...I thought you may be interested in this.

Festival opener Chicago 10 recounts the demonstrations surrounding 1968's Democratic National Convention, which saw protestors clash with the National Guard.

director Brett Morgen ... said one of his goals in making the film was to
"mobilise the youth in the country to get out and stop this war".

His film is one of many referencing the Iraq conflict at this year's Sundance festival

He and his ilk are kind of amusing. Why would a group of people who, for a living, wear costumes and makeup and have themselves filmed 'making pretend' think they are qualified to tell the rest of us how to think?

Are you talking about Robert Way Past His Prime Redford or Osama Bin Hidden Out Laden?!
