Sean Penn Arrives in Baghdad for Three-Day Visit

The actor and director Sean Penn arrived in Baghdad on Friday morning at the start of a three-day visit to Iraq.

"By the invitation of the Institute for Public Accuracy, I have the privileged opportunity to pursue a deeper understanding of this frightening conflict," Penn said in a statement released in Washington and Baghdad on Friday. "I would hope that all Americans will embrace information available to them outside conventional channels. As a father, an actor, a filmmaker, and a patriot, my visit to Iraq is for me a natural extension of my obligation (at least attempt) to find my own voice on matters of conscience."

Penn's visit to Iraq has been organized by the Institute for Public Accuracy, a national U.S. organization of policy analysts with offices in San Francisco and Washington, D.C.

Notice how everyone on the left is a 'patriot' now. They probably had to go into speech therapy to be trained to say a word that they had never spoken except to use it as a pejorative as in 'those patriot types' when referring to conservatives.

C'mon Sean. Tell the truth.

It's illegal in the US to tie women up in hotel rooms and beat them, so you're visiting a jurisdiction where you can indulge in your favorite hobby.

Don't sugarcoat it.

Hoping he gets the "up close and personal" tour from Saddam himself.

These Hollyweird types have the money, time and drive to be subversive. I wonder how many Anti-Americans have sought out Hollywood glitter and money since 9/11?

He beat up Madonna so bad that she left him.

He beat up photographers so bad that he went to jail.

He cheats constantly on Robin Wright his wife (yes, I know of some women he's cheated with!).

He's also an idiot.

He became famous by playing a surfer boy (Spiccolli) who was a dumb druggie.

Life imitates art.
