Will Smith should go back to saving the world in “Independence Day” and “Men in Black”.

I’m going to have to stick up for Will on this one. What was left out of the headline is the key qualifier ‘overseas’. I haven’t been overseas in a few years, but I’ve heard enough about the Anti-American bashing that has gone on to understand what he is saying. Later in the interview he makes it very clear that he loves this country.

LAUER: Do you think people can't get behind America led by John McCain?

SMITH: You know I just, there, there are, there are certain ideas that I believe Barack stands for that are fundamental that the forefathers of this country wrote down on paper that we're all supposed to pay attention to, we're not supposed to ignore it and do what we want to do 'cause we have different ideas. And I believe just at his core the, that those ideas just they, they just come of his pores. And I'm, I'm excited to support him.

Well at least he didn't take that bait.

Used to like him.

Understand he’s being lured into Scientology too.

LAUER: And, Will, what are those ideas that we're written down on paper that Barack is paying attention to but the Republicans are not?

SMITH: Well, um, you know, like, um, you know, stuff.

This is very disappointing. Has Will Smith read what our founding fathers wrote????

Darn, I thought about seeing Hancock. Not anymore. If I even bother to watch, it’ll be when I get it FREE at my local library.

Will is an actor. Someone has to tell him how to behave. He is too vacuous to figure it out for himself.

Apparently he thinks that Karl Marx was one of our "forefathers".

“I just came back from Moscow, Berlin, London and Paris ... And it just hasn’t been a good thing to be American”

Does Mr Smith base his opinion of America on how the rest of the world views us?

Ten years? Why that’s the Clinton admisitration. No wonder. The Russians are still pissed off about Kosovo.

This from a super-rich, super-pampered, super-famous Hollywood movie star. The hypocrisy is too thick to cut with a chainsaw...
