As Obama et al. shove us into a senseless conflict that could easily escalate into WWIII, let’s give a listen to righteous voices from Tinseltown:
“But I am equally against the death penalty or war — anywhere people are sacrificed for some end justifying a means.”
— Martin Sheen
“I also think that there is a strong streak of racism, and whenever we engage in foreign adventures. Our whole history in regime change has been of people of different color.”
— Ed Asner
“I think we’re past that point in human evolution where there’s such a thing as winning wars.”
— Sean Penn
“It is very inspiring and amusing how many people have come out in this genuine and spontaneous way to embrace peace and reject war. It reminds us there is a human and gentle spirit out there in this world.”
— Tim Robbins
“You can’t beat your enemy anymore through wars; instead you create an entire generation of people revenge-seeking.”
— George Clooney
“War is failure! When you are at war, you have failed!”
— Janeane Garofalo
“Let’s talk for a minute about these masters of war, these same men that are sending our sons and our daughters, our brothers and sisters, our mothers and fathers to fight an undeclared and unconstitutional and unwinnable war for them.”
— Jessica Lange
“You know, really good artists have a way of being relevant in their time — but great artists are relevant at any time. So, in the words of William Shakespeare, ‘Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor.”
— Barbra Streisand
“The world has come together and said ‘no’ to this war – and we must stand with them.”
— Danny Glover
“Let us resist this war. Let us hate war in all its forms, whether the weapon used is a missile or an airplane.”
— Susan Sarandon
Of course, all these where Last Known Pre-2009 Communications. These people have had little if anything to say about war since. Ed Asner says it is because it would be racist to disagree with our historic First Affirmative Action President:
“A lot of people don’t want to feel anti-black by being opposed to Obama.”
Principled opposition to unnecessary wars would have been a redeeming quality for Hollowood liberals. But again we see that they have no redeeming qualities.

OTHER THAN ENDING SLAVERY, COMMUNISM, NAZISM AND FASCISM
WAR HAS NEVER SOLVED ANYTHING

Forget that whole European campaign in WWII.
What an Ass...
RACISTS!!!
You have to wonder, given their low-information status, how many of them even realize they’re opposing Obama on this. Surely Obama would be against war, right? /sarc
“You can’t beat your enemy anymore through wars; instead you create an entire generation of people revenge-seeking.”
— George Clooney
Yes you can if you kill them all and demoralize them.

Which we haven’t done since WW II...so in a sense he is correct. Right now all we have is a bunch of pissed off goat herders with weapons.
You do realize, of course, that these were all comments that were made against the Iraq conflict, right?
