Hey Redford:
"Sit down and shut up, you phony limousine leftist! Dump your private jet if you want to improve the environment. Oh, and get someone to remove those disgusting moles from your face, at least before you die."

"Sadly, the erosion that's occurred is disastrous, frightening and dangerous,"

Sounds like a description of his career.

And his wardrobe.

I take particular offense as a Westerner when I see all the swagger and all the strutting...

I take particular offense as a Westerner when I see all the conceit and arrogance from Hollywood elitists buying large tracts of Western land and locking out hunters and fishermen.

Redford you freakin' phony! Bush is a Texan! Not to mention he will win most of the western states and the all of the southern states. You live in make believe land where you used your riches earned making movies to buy property in the west so you could call yourself a westerner!

Utah,Alaska, Arizona, Nevada, Colorado, Montana, Idaho,and Wyoming are all voting Bush. The only reason California, Washington and Oregon wont is because the freaks in certain parts of Cali have spread like a virus to these states that used to be full of rugged individuals. "Westerners" like you forced them to stop fishing and logging for a living and convinced them to trade their birthright for condo and a latte. I know, I had to move to Texas to escape them!

"I think that warning should read, "Gay-enviro whacko alert."

Do you have any specifics or whatever re the Gay label. Redford is an Icon of the Gay community as noted by the article below from a gay group:

Sundance Channel comes to Chicago

Sundance Channel, well­ known for its innovative programming of independent films, is now available on TCI´s Digital Cable service in the Chicago area.

Sundance is always inclusive of gay and lesbian films, and their special May women´s month of programs, "She Said Cinema," is no exception. The lesbian films When Night Is Falling and Treyf, as well as the lesbian classic Entre Nous, are among the highlights in May. In June, Sundance will program a gay and/or lesbian film each night for Pride Month. Walking & Talking, starring Anne Heche, will also air. A program on Lesbians in Film airs May 6, 10 and 16.

Robert Redford, the man behind the Sundance Institute for filmmakers, the Sundance Film Festival, and now the Sundance Channel, was in town to launch the station´s availability in the Chicago market. Redford was asked questions about women and minority filmmakers, as well as gay and lesbian films. He said both the festival and channel are all about diversity, and they will continue to be inclusive of gay and lesbian works.

As part of TCI´s digital package, Sundance is currently available to TCI Digital Cable customers in the Chicago area and will be available in the northwest suburbs beginning May 11. Call your TCI outlet, or on look on the web for program schedules: www.sundancechannel.com

"She Said Cinema" will present the world premieres of two films: Me and Will follows the blazing path of Jane and Will, who meet in rehab; and Treyf, a moving and witty documentary by Alisa Lebow and Cynthia Madansky that examines the filmmakers´ relationship to one another and Judaism. The Yiddish word treyf refers to a food that is forbidden or does not meet kashrut guidelines; in the film, the term also refers to Jewish lesbians who do not fit into Jewish family structure.

Fans of the French filmmaker Diane Kurys won´t want to miss Six Days, Six Nights, starring the luminous Anne Parillaud (La Femme Nikita) and Beatrice Dalle (Betty Blue). Another Kurys film, the much­ loved 1983 drama Entre Nus, is one of the watershed films celebrated by "She Said Cinema." Starring Isabelle Huppert and Miou­ Miou, Entre Nous is a subtle and provocative portrait of female friendship that is widely considered one of the finest films to come out of France in the last 20 years.

"She Said Cinema" will also spotlight several not­ to­ be­ missed short films, including Amnesia, directed by Alex Sichel (All Over Me), a lyrical tone poem about the relationship of mothers and daughters. In Dinner Party by Lisa Cholodenko (High Art), a love triangle reveals itself over a dinner table.

Other highlights follow, but see Sundance´s web page for more info:

Las Vegas - The Bush administration is "intentionally blind" to the needs of the environment and has rolled back years of advances in improving air and water quality, actor and activist Robert Redford said on Wednesday.

It's true. I can't even go outside anymore. And people are even being allowed to keep their property instead of being forced off it by bureaucrats. /sarcasm

Redford also has a spread in Tesuque, just north of Santa Fe. Santa Fe is sort of a Berkeley done in adobe, so I imagine he fits in quite well there.
