Good morning, Cincy =^)

You only have to look at the state of affairs in America." He continued with allusions toward his children's emigration to Australia -- away from "people so irresponsible that human life holds such little value." Read: Americans.

Is he alluding to the children that he and Nicole adopted? Have they dumped these children now that the marriage is over? How nice to cover the fact they dumped them in a country far, far away with an excuse like "protecting" them from terrible Americans. If these are the children he is refering to, how apalling.

Good morning JohnHuang2!!

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Maybe the kids will fare better away from two self-absorbed actors.

I think they would have fared better if these lousy celebs were not allowed to jump the line of couples waiting to adopt and buy these children they mistreat. Paula Poundstone comes to mind, now these two simps Nicole and Cruise.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

They just peal off the money and buy their way to the top of the line.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

*Smiles* and a thank you JH2!

[JohnHuang2]

You're more than welcome =^)

Excellent editorial.

It wouldn't shock me if Hollywood next would try to make John Walker into a hero. I'm outraged at the lenient treatment this traitor received.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood."

What a great quote! Thanks.

It seems that every thread I go to today is making me cry. Good article and I'm glad that someone stood up and said it. People like those mentioned in the article take and never give back, at least to my eyes. If they find the United States, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights so repugnant - then please, lets ask them to leave, because they are not Americans. They come from a country called Scum where trash and traitors live. Let them succour each other somewhere else, just not here.

Thanks for the heads up on this thread John.

The only way to fight them is to boycott their films's and the products they endorse or sell..like newman's food line.

This past winter, Altman, as film auteur, invectively conveyed the country he served to the Times of London: "This present government in America I just find disgusting. When I see an American flag flying, it's a joke." On the 19 terrorists and the World Trade Center, he said: "We gave them the ideas -- it was a movie."

*shrugs* The present government in America is disgusting. And although one couldn't say for sure that they got the idea to fly planes into skyscrapers from an American movie, it sure sounds like something you'd find in an American action film.

The only problem that I have with that is the people who will be injured. I may not agree with Newman's politics, but I do agree with what he is doing with the profits from his companies and that is helping kids. Especially those with epilepsy. Someone who is willing to help the disadvantaged and handicapped children in this country without asking for anything back is a hero. He also has people like us that work for him and I cannot with good conscience see them put out of work.
