Tom Hanks Quips: ‘Four More Years’ For Obama

By Cheryl K. Chumley-The Washington Times October 4, 2013

Conspiracy theorists, be on alert. Hollywood icon Tom Hanks may not have been joking when he said he wanted President Obama to run for a third term — over the prohibitions of the Constitution.

Mr. Hanks, who’s starring in the soon-to-be-released “Captain Phillips” and was in Washington, D.C., this week for a premiere showing at the Newseum, declared his choice for president for 2016: Mr. Obama, The Hill reported.

“I’m voting for Barack Obama, 2016,” he said. “Yes I am. Four more years.”

Mr. Hanks reportedly laughed while speaking. But do a Bing search on “Obama seeks third term,” and the more than 2 million hits that come back reveal the notion is both widely discussed and widely reported. MSN, for instance, in August reported on an investor — Porter Stansberry — who claims the president is secretly planning a third term

Tom Hanks is a great actor but he is a liberal doofus.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Its time for Hanks to go back and make movies and shut up.If he wants to make a buck he’d better keep those liberal thoughts to himself because I won’t by a ticket to one of his movies.

[bmwcyle]

he is an idiot.

Celebrities are so detached from reality and in the bubble they have no clue what real people have to deal with. Live one day in the life of a peasant under this tyrant with your money and financial security removec and let’s see if you still feel the same, Mr. Hanks...

[Verginius Rufus]

If Hillary is physically able to run in 2016, the Clintonistas will see to it that Obama doesn't get another term.

If Obama did run, there would be a constitutional issue, but the Supreme Court would find a way for him, like they did with Obamacare.

East *hit and croak, Hanks.

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

Eat *hit and croak, Hanks.

[Toespi]

And I will continue to NEVER pay to see a single piece of garbage that you ugly bastard have been involved in.

[ObozoMustGo2012]

Youre not kidding. I was debating on seeing his movie about the Maersk Alabama hijacking, but I think ill skip it

Tom Hanks is a great actor but he is a liberal doofus.

Tom Hanks is a crap actor and a shithead.

[Marie Antoinette]

Well bless his heart.

FEMA camps on standby.

[uncitizen]

Boycott the movies, concerts, shows of any celebrities that spout this crap! (Even if they only say it once)

[rlmorel]

I am one of those people who cannot put that aside for entertainers.

If they would “shut up and sing”...yeah, okay. But so many of these dummies with a surfeit of money and a shortage of intelligence see the bully pulpit of an entertainer as fair game. But for the most part, it only works one way, for liberals. Someone like Gary Sinese is an anomaly.

People are oohing and aaahing over the new George Clooney movie...won’t see it.

Won’t see the Tom Hanks one, either. I respect what he did with the “Band of Brothers” and such, but...I won’t be buying any more of his product.

[driftdiver]

I’ve already decided I shall not go quietly into the night.

[EnquiringMind]

OMG. Doesn’t he care that half of us will not to pay to see his movies for his Obama stupidity?

[stevem]

he is an idiot.

All liberals are..even the successful ones.
