Done. Robbins is a typical Socialib. He said, get this, "that it's sad that the Bull Durham Baseball committee used its weight to make a political statement." Uh, duh, what do you call what he did when he used his stardom to foist his political beliefs on others?

What else do you expect from the mecca of high school grads and dropouts? They missed the class called critical thinking. That's what makes them Socialibs.

In Robbins' response to the Petroskey's letter, the actor said he was looking forward to a weekend away from politics and war, and was sorry the administrator had "chosen to use baseball and your position at the Hall of Fame to make a political statement ."

He also noted that he didn't know baseball was a "Republican sport." Robbins also noted in his letter it was "absurd that Petroskey suggested his actions put the troops in danger, and wishes the adminstrator would have saved him from "rhetoric," and instead "talked honestly about your ties to the Bush and Reagan administrations."

The cancellation follows a snub of Sarandon last month by a Tampa, Fla., United Way chapter, who canceled the actress' appearance because of her antiwar views. Sarandon responded by calling the organization "shortsighted."

so they are still opening their mouths,have not learn yet.
