Brad Pitt's Mother Slams Obama, Gay Marriage
Access Hollywood ^ | July 6, 2012 | Access Hollywood/Staff

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Brad Pitt has long been an advocate for gay rights (initially vowing to hold off on marrying longtime love Angelina Jolie until gay marriage became legal nationwide), but his mother, Jane Pitt, apparently takes a different stance on the issue.

In a letter penned for her local newspaper, Jane urged Christian voters not to be put off by candidate Mitt Romney’s Mormon faith, as he still maintains conservative views in line with Christian beliefs despite his differing religion — including his posture on gay marriage and abortion.

“I think any Christian should spend much time in prayer before refusing to vote for a family man with high morals, business experience, who is against abortion, and shares Christian conviction concerning homosexuality just because he is a Mormon,” she wrote in the opinion piece for The Springfield News-Leader this week.

Jane added that “any Christian who does not vote or writes in a name is casting a vote for Romney’s opponent, Barack Hussein Obama — a man who sat in Jeremiah Wright’s church for years, did not hold a public ceremony to mark the National Day of Prayer, and is a liberal who supports the killing of unborn babies and same-sex marriage.”

While the letter may seem harsh to some, Brad has previously said his mother means no harm.

“She’s very, very loving — very open, genuine, and it’s hilarious because she always gets painted in the tabloids as a she-devil,” he told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview back in January. “There’s not an ounce of malice in her.

“She wants everyone to be happy,” the actor noted.

I really do not care what you do, nor do I care what you may or may not think.
Any PM letter from you henceforth will be first copied and pasted to the general forum, from then I will reply, if I choose to. Thank you in advance for no further private communication.

Like I said Jim...he thinks he can insult with impugnity. He really needs a “time out” until he can learn manners.

Ben Bolt - So what about 35 years. Time doens’t entitle you to anything. I am espousing the same views as the forum owner. I don’t care to “flip” you. I really don’t. However, I am sick of you denigrating those that disagree with you. You are crude, rude, and socially unacceptable. You really need to be silent for awhile. There are times I have needed a “silencing”....this is yours.

“The GOP is a country club . Remember Florida in 2k ? Been knowing that since I got emails for being a trouble maker . If I had my way I’d start a 3rd party and suck the life out of the GOP and build on that.”

Hallelejah. You finally wrote something I can agree with.

Quite a spicy thread.

I think everyone should back away from the keyboard and go outside for a nice walk.

Ditto's!!!

to what you said.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I will not vote for Romney. I don't care if he is the only one on the ballot, I won't vote for him.
Why? Quite simply, because he's a liar on every single issue important to Conservatives. And, no, I won't vote for Obama either.

“You dont know me and I could care less.” “I’m not going anywhere and as to your smug smart mouth you just keep your so called principles and wrap that around you.”

And you know nothing about me. What I am seeing about you is that you are an abusive individual that is being allowed to denigrate others wrongly without consequence. You really need to stop writing and posting your vitriol against persons of character and principle.

If you want to vote for Romney...then do so. Stop insulting those of us that refuse to do so. You just can’t seem to grasp a simple idea like that. Stop be obtuse, be quiet, and all will be fine.

Jim - He continues to insult and abuse without consequence. Is this what you really want for FR?

Ditto. There are several local, state, congressional and senate candidates that I am supporting with as much energy and finances as possible.
I just cannot in good conscience vote for Romney.

You have it right!

I'm voting for all the local good conservatives too! I hope to be able to help in the local campaigns!

As far as I am concerned, the Elite Republicans, will full knowledge of how easy it be to defeat obama with a Conservative candidate, refused to do so, meaning nominate a Conservative candidate.Instead, knowing full well that Romney stood no chance of defeating obama regardless of how vurnable he would be, ordained him to be the standard bearer of the Republican Party. This tells me: 1. The Elite Republicans would rather lose the election than win with a Conservative. 2.They would prefer an obama win over a Conservative win.

I think they want a progressive win and don't care whether there's a "d" or an "r" behind the name. Furthermore, they've been willing to take it in incriments which is what got us into the hole we're in.

There are several objectives that can be met by voting. First you can try to put your boy over on the public by giving him more votes than the other guy. Or, alternatively, you can vote for someone else just to make sure the other guy doesn't get over 50%.

That can happen when your guy is going to come in second, with certainty, so you want to minimize the aggregate impact ~ that third-party candidate can be very useful in showing that neither of the front runners were metaphysically wonderful.

Then, maybe you want to give voice to the problems that ensue when the ruling elite cut out the guys on the bottom entirely.

Politics is a hard business. Be glad you can vote. Make sure your vote counts for something.
