It depends, if he's a flaming anti-Bush activist type, I won't watch him.
I just heard the other day Eva Longoria say she had a recent birthday and she decided to have a giant piñata, because it was either hit that or a giant effigy of Bush.
Desperate Housewives just lost me watching with that statement.
If Sutherland is an activist, he doesn't deserve our patronage. If he is wise enough to make his politics unknown to anyone as an actor, great for him.
He only is an activist in Canada. Mute about American politics.
