Redford Solicits Donations For Boxer Campaign
Aug 19, 2010 3:09 pm US/Pacific

WASHINGTON (CBS 5 / AP) - Hollywood icon Robert Redford is trying to help Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer raise money for her re-election campaign in a letter championing her efforts on the environment.

The actor and director is a longtime environmental activist who has been a regular donor to Democratic candidates over the years.

He says in an e-mail to potential donors that Boxer, in the wake of the Gulf Coast oil spill, has sought to extend a moratorium on drilling in federal waters along the Pacific Coast. Boxer's opponent, Republican Carly Fiorina, has criticized a permanent ban as shortsighted.

He also took issue with an ad Fiorina ran during the California Republican primary that dismissed Boxer's view that global warming is a national security concern. Fiorina likened that concern to being worried about the weather.

Oh, there's Patty Murray and my Senator, Robert Casey, Jr.

That's a lot of dumbness!

While he looks a lot older, I don't see the evidence of the work done.

He's gotten a very doughy feminine look about him. Mostly he appears to be in horrible physical condition. But in this pic, he looks Just like Garrison Keillor. My first though was "why the Keillor picture, are you just giving us a montage of of lift wing idiots?"

Redford certainly isn't aging gracefully.

Has anybody noticed Redford has not aged well. He looks like he had plastic surgery that did not go well. Either that or he got old fast.

I don’t think he has had work done on his face. You can’t help it if you have wrinkles and sagging skin.

You CAN however not be a raving LIBERAL!!!

I can think of a list of ‘donations’ to mail him.

wouldn’t be worth the postage . . . amongst other problems with such efforts.

This photo displays what I was talking about. The skin around the eyes has been ratcheted tightly towards the ears giving him an Asian appearance and the hairline has strangely been ratcheted towards the eyebrows.
