Looks like Harrison Ford and Ed Asner are on the same side of my list.....

First, I will ignore the fact that actors are generally not experts on anything other than maintaining the illusion that they are someone else (yes, there may be exceptions, but they are just that- and Harrison Ford is not an exception).

But what I won’t ignore is this question: why do any of these Hollywood pantyliners think that their geopolitical ad libs are more important than keeping their mouths shut while my son and all the other soldiers are still in the process of ding their jobs? Are they trying to sell more tickets in the overseas markets, thus merely selling Americans out for box-office cash? Are they paid lobbyists for the UN or the DNC (or some Islamic outfit), and therefore merely on the clock? Do they just want the anti-American jackasses of the planet to like them on a personal level, so they’re out and about, drumming up new friends?

Really-- what is the purpose? It can’t be because they are trying to look intelligent, since Harrison Ford, Johnny Depp, Natalie Maines (or whomever) really sound more like they are badly rehearsing the latest Bonior/Byrd speech.

The war is not over—and these people are traitors.

He seems like an alcoholic, often bumbling his way through prepared speeches at events. He has changed in the years since he gave up his long-term marriage. He used to avoid politics, saying that he didn't think it was his place to comment. Remember when he was at Clinton's Wyoming birthday party? Most of Hollywood was there, of course.

Ah, Hollywood. Ford showcases his ignorance in Madrid, Dustin Hoffman in London, and George Clooney in Germany. And I thought the Dixie Chicks were bad....

I have found it surprisingly effortless to avoid seeing movies in which politically clueless but vocal actors participate.

Me too.

But I need some magic formula to help me give up Willie Nelson. I break out in a cold sweat whenever I try.

HELP!

HELP!

Oh, well, it won't be so painful to boycott his movies since he's made so many bad ones lately. Harrison, go play kissy-face with your young, anorexic squeeze (then pick the bones out of your body later)and leave the Iraqi war opinions to those of us who can read.

Go fix Calista a sandwich. The scrawny child needs some fattin' up.

There were rumors last year that Harrison Ford was buying the rights to "Breakfast at Tiffany's" in order to remake it starring himself and Calista.

Hey, Harrison, if you're going to ruin an Audrey Hepburn movie, why not try remaking "Sabrina" first. Oh, wait, you already ruined that one.

I almost hope he tries to do a "Tiffany's" remake starring Miss "one facial expression" Flockhart, the result should prove quite humorous.

"I believe, though I may wrong because I am no expert, that this war is about what most wars are about: hegemony, money, power and oil."

Man, he has the dem/lib/marxist/eco-nazi/ talking points down to the letter.

Calista's boyfriend is a big time pothead.

Harrison Ford may not be an American President, but he played the part in a movie once. He also played a lot of other "heroic" roles, that apparently, he could not stomach in real life.

Harrison Ford suffers from his membership in the religion of Democrat all his life. His judgment has been warped by that astigmatic view of the world.

I wonder what his draft record shows. He was draftable for Viet Nam right? Like Klintoon he probrbaly dodged it.

No mention of military service in his bio but there is this little tidbit...

Following high school graduation, Ford studied English and Philosophy at Ripon College in Wisconsin. An admittedly lousy student, he began acting while in college and then worked briefly in summer stock. He was expelled from the school three days before graduation because he did not complete his required thesis.

Why is it that most of these boneheads are college dropouts?

"I'm sure gun laws should be strengthened in the United States. I just don't know the correct mechanism."

I do. Get rid of all the laws which infringe on the right of individuals to use firearms.
