Mr. Voight: I'm Confused...How do You Really Feel
Hot Air ^ | 06/09/2009 | Ed Morrissey

Alternate title: “Jon Voight begs to never work in Hollywood again.” He’s no Daniel Hannan but he ain’t bad: Ten full minutes of rhetorical roundhouses here, from Obama’s fraudulent posturing as a “pragmatist” during the campaign to the perils of his Israel policy to the “oppression” of his economic blueprint to the pure polemic of referring to him as a “soft-spoken Julius Caesar.” He’s unfair when he describes our new foreign policy as getting together with enemies in a little playground — The One did, after all, double down against the Taliban in Afghanistan — but if this new Rasmussen poll is accurate, Captain Diplomacy’s willingness to meet rogue regimes “without preconditions” is already wearing thin with a huge majority of the public. Smart power or soft power?

Soft spoken Caesar? That’s an insult to Caesar. He was a leader and a good military man—Things Obama can’t imagine.

Very well said.

I'd have preferred a bit more raucous a response, however.

John Voight used hold exactly the same political views that his daughter does today. Ms. Angelina is simply not mature enough to out think the liberalism of her occupation and those who she abounds with. Her maturity will come eventually, just as it has to her Dad, because she is smart. I applaud John Voight for one thing. He precludes his country, and mine and yours, is in trouble. He understands the the leadership in this country is run by a far to the left socialist/marxist person bent on changing the entire American system and has literally wiped out the financial system in just about 100 days. The left’s war is against capitolism which is the engine that runs the country.Obama wants redistribution of funds, to go back to the rightful owners, as he puts it...the poor, those on welfare and minorities. It doesn’t matter to him where, or to whom the money belongs. He will get and spend it. Congress goes along, and has helped...thats a one party system. There is no oposition except Fox news and Conservative talk radio. This is how revolutions begin......... this is just for starters..shall I go on?????
