VOIGHT: My concerns for America Obama sowing socialist seeds in young people (WOW!!!)

The Washington Times ^ | 28 Jul 08 | Jon Voight

[BallyBill]

Is that John Voight’s car?

[elhombrelibre]

Yes, I saw that too, but I think she and her father were estranged for a long time. I don't know why.

[Bender2]

Who'd a thought... this coming from Milo Minderbinder, Luke Martin and Joe Buck?

However, I do believe... somewhere Woodrow F. Call is smiling!

John’s, no Jon’s.

"The radicals of that era were successful in giving the communists power to bring forth the killing fields and slaughter 2.5 million people in Cambodia and South Vietnam."

Jon Voight gets it bigtime.

[Steely Tom]

Yes, and I think she's no where near as far left as many Hollyweirdos. She's written a remarkably reasonable editorial as well on Iraq. She has some type of UN role as a spokesperson.

That's great! News like this just makes me... wanna squeal like a pig.

[BallyBill]

Just saw “Hour of the Gun” this weekend. I believe that was his first movie. He played Curly Bill Brocius.

[elhombrelibre]

I agree. Today, the teachers are like a priest craft in many instances pumping socialist dogma into the young without regard for its history or its horrors.

GEORGE: So?

JERRY: C’mon, put the top up, it’s November!

GEORGE: I feel alive, Jerry.

JERRY: Let’s check out the glove box. [Opens the glove compartment, takes out a pencil.] Ah. Pencil.

GEORGE: Hey...you don’t think...sure, that’s Jon Voight’s pencil!

JERRY: With Jon Voight’s teeth marks. [Looks at the owner’s manual.] Owner’s manual...you know what? This car was owned by Jon Voight.

GEORGE: Ah! See? I told ya.

JERRY: Except Jon is spelled with an H. J-O-H-N.

GEORGE: So?

JERRY: Doesn’t Jon Voight spell his name J-O-N?

GEORGE (pulls over): So, what are you saying?

JERRY: Nothing. I’m sure “Jon” probably mispelled his own name. I know sometimes I spell Jerry with a G...and an I! [Laughs uproariously.]

GEORGE (angrily): Get out of the car!

JERRY: What?

GEORGE: That’s right, you heard me. Get out! You are ruining this whole experience for me!

JERRY (sarcastically): Oh, look! There’s Gregory Peck’s bicycle!

GEORGE: Get out!

JERRY: And Barbara Mandrell’s skateboard!

GEORGE: Get out!! [Jerry gets out and George drives away. A couple of guys notice Jerry in his cowboy boots.]

TOUGH GUY (threatingly): Hey, cowboy. Where’s your horse? [Jerry slips and slides in his cowboy boots and runs away.] Yeah, you better run!

[BlueAngel]

I appreciate your courage, Mr. Voight. God Bless you.

Jon Voight has balls. Perhaps he should be the head of the RNC.

[elhombrelibre]

Well, he is pretty far beyond the reach of the average players in Hollyweird.

[agere_contra]

Superb. Thanks for posting.

[Hildy]

Although it’s nice to read an actor with a conservative bent once in a while, I want to know why he gets to have his piece in the Washington Times? I don’t like it when liberal celebrities get special treatment, and I don’t like it when conservatives do. Why is his opinion any more relevant than let’s say, MINE? Will the washington Post publish my opinion if I call them? I mean, who cares what John Voigt thinks, really? I know I am about to be flamed.

[Unlikely Hero]

Who cares what Hollywood celebs say about politics?

Oh wait, he agrees with us? Right on!

He’s not one to talk about fatherhood, is he.

Angelina got pissed at him during her Billy Bob years. Seems that him saying that he thought she had emotional problems set her off.

I seem to recall that she was wearing a vial of Billy Bob's blood as a necklace at the time so dad might have been close to spot on.

"This is a perilous time, and more than ever, the world needs a united and strong America. If, God forbid, we live to see Mr. Obama president, we will live through a socialist era that America has not seen before, and our country will be weakened in every way." Jon Voight

Amen, Amen.

[GreenAccord]

You know it’s an epic episode when simply reading an excerpt of the script makes you laugh until you cry.

[MississippiMan]

I also heard a Brad Pitt comment I absolutely loved, which I’ll paraphrase below. When asked why he never spoke out about politics and other important issues, he responded, “Why the hell would anybody care about what I think? I’m a grown man who puts on makeup.”
