As Oscars Near, Hollywood Blasts Iraq War.

Lets see we have Pro Liars(I mean pretenders or rather actors if they are good at fooling us ) telling the world what they think? I dont know about you all but i mostly could care a less what a pro liar thinks about much. But on second thought isnt this what our politicians are? Tom Daschle is a great example. Oh what the heck they might as well spew as much as the next politician.

Wow, I've been suprised by some statements in here about freedom of speach but this one really cuts the cake.

Here we aparently have an experts opinion on treason. I thought american citizens were garenteed free speach but aparently it depends on your political outlook. Micheal More is so liberal that he constitues some sort of threat to the US.

While we're at it we better start a new round of the McCarthy hearings to contain this liberal disease that is threatening the country.

Be carefull of what you wish for, it might just come true some day.

No, you miss the point. To say, "I am against the war." That is not treason. To call the President a terrorist is borderline. Here is how. The Constitution says that giving aid or comfort to the ememy can constitute treason. Now, if the Iraqi military sees American citizens, especially famous people, saying that the President is a terrorist, and that in turns firms their defiance, and causes them to kill more Americans, then that is borderline treason.


Note: I never said it was treason, I said it was BORDERLINE!

It's also pretty telling that the "proof" of 9/11 and Iraq connections come from Rush Limbaugh's website. 'Cause, you know, he'd never lie or stretch the truth or anything, right?

Once again, you see something, and at the first sign of anything you don't like, you stop, and don't even consdier anything else.

Most of the articles are from other sites, independent of Rush Limbaugh, like the washington times, and PBS.org. The only thing on his site were satelite images, which were from a company called space imaging which takes satelite pictures for a hefty fee.

Now we are trying to end Terrorism, a war that will last for years. The celebrities would be the first to complain about Bush if their was a terrorist attack in Hollywood. Actor "Why hasn't he done something before this happened?"

b2,

with all due respect( and welcome back btw...;) )...this is quite a stretch.

by your reasoning, if i called saddam a terrorist...and this in turn caused his followers to be quite pissed off and attack the u.s....then i'm borderline responsible for an act of terrorism? exceedingly tenuous at best.

calling mcrain, calling mcrain...turns on secret JD signal beacon....

You are right. You as an individual, you are correct. 15,000 people marching to that tune, or a celebrity, or politician for that matter can be viewed a little different don't you think?

Ah yes, I found it. This is an interesting tidbit I found online:...

G4scott, if you came and tried that on me I wouldn't hit you, I'd call the cops and have you arrested for assault.

Of course, I would have to worry about the inconvenience of a trial and investigation and all that, but as a member of a civil and democratic society, I realize that's what has to happen if my society is going to remain civil and democratic.

See what I'm getting at here?
