Sean Penn bales water out of a boat with a plastic cup as he and members of his entourage make an attempt to rescue stranded people in New Orleans.
"Where are all of us?"
Not down there doing something so politically transparent and phony that it's almost a sin?...:)
Yep , that's the guy in the boat alright
He don't plant cotton, he don't plant taters
If he capsizes he's food for 'gators
But ole man SeanPenn, he jes keeps floatin' along
Tote that boat
Scoop that bail
Hoist that jacket
To make a sail
Oh, I gets weary and sick of lookin'
At him play-actin' as Captain Hook-in
But ole man SeanPenn, he jes keeps floatin' along

i agree..It's a publicity stunt , as obvious as can be .
Why would he need a flack jacket? He's rescuing people! He's saving all the people the Feds won't/can't save! Everybody loves him! Hollywood to the rescue!
I been laughin my ass off at that one brooo Sooooooooo funny
We're staying out of the way and letting the professionals handle the rescuing. How would us going down there and becoming part of the problem be considered help?
Pitiful, ain't it?
Just think of all the manpower wasted to "protect" his silly @ss when they could've actually been elsewhere saving people.
*I* am not there because, like Sean Penn, I have not the training or experience necesssary to enter hostile/dangerous areas to save lives and I'm honest enough to admit it.
Can't say the same for him.
* We sheltered 4 evacuees in our home for 5 days (Sunday-Thursday) -- 2 adults and 2 canines with my 3 cats and 2 adults.
* Tomorrow I'm going with 2 ladies to deliver pet supplies to a shelter in Birmingham where truckloads of rescued pets are being housed temporarily -- until wonderful folks from New York can transport them east for adoption.
* Tomorrow I am also going to the Pelham, Alabama Civic Center to deliver pillows and blankets for the first 100 evacuees. I will be surveying the situ to see what else is needed. We are expecting 5,000 evacuees over the next few days.
* Our Missouri Synod Lutheran Church is already collecting $$ and we have donated. We've been told to hold off on other activities for about 2 weeks, until the situation is fully assessed and a specific plan devised to care for our own.
Any other questions?
God bless you Sally.
What have you done for my city?
Sean is at least helping some people.
I like the flak jacket, doesn't trust his own people.
Hooray for Hollyweird!
ROTFL!You know, I think we may have to thank Sean Penn. This is first time I've laughed in a week.
Bingo, their hatred of Bush is irrational. The good news is he had to buy the boat and camara equipment that sunk in the Bayou on the SS Dingy! How many could he have fed if he gave $$ to the Red Cross??
Pray for W and Our Freedom Fighters
And what city is that? NO? How do you know I haven't done anything???
Pray for W and Our Freedom Fighters
Credit for what? Attempting to save people? Nope. His intention was to float out there with his photographer and entourage to rescue someone while HE was on camera doing it. It was about Sean Penn, and NOT about any selfless act of kindness.
His photographer was supposed to be in the boat, although I'm sure there were plenty of lefty photogs there to show ALL of his contributions. They sure did eh?
