Actor Ben Affleck has made it very clear where his sympathies lie in the Leakgate affair -- and it isn't with the White House.

Appearing on HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher," Affleck charged that President Bush "probably also leaked” CIA agent Valerie Plame's name and so "if he did, you can be hung for that! That's treason!” He continued: "You could be killed. That's not a joking around Tom DeLay 'I'll do a year, I bribed the state officials with corporate money.' That's like they shoot you in the battlefield for doing that.”

Affleck also called DeLay a "criminal."

:-) Exactly. Great movie.

Perhaps Tookie Williams was hung, perhaps not.

He WAS executed by lethal injection.

Justice was done.

[dfwgator]

Of course Ben isn't exactly Jodie's "type", if you know what I mean.

[Leo Farnsworth]

LOL

[HarmlessLovableFuzzball]

LOL ! Cheney looks like a "film" star !

[Graymatter]

[musicman]

This whole thing is Bruce Willis's fault.

After all, Affleck drew the short straw FIRST, and Willis should have made BEN stay on the asteroid with the nuclear bomb, right???



(....ok...sarcasm off thingee goes in this spot...)

He must really enjoy the coffee.

Someone should tell Ben Affleck a that people are "hanged"; paintings are "hung".

I miss you more than Michael Bay missed the mark,
When he made Pearl Harbor.
I miss you more than that movie missed the point,
And that’s an awful lot girl.
And now, now you've gone away,
And all I'm trying to say,
Is Pearl Harbor sucked and I miss you.

I need you like Ben Affleck needs acting school,
He was terrible in that film.
I need you like Cuba Gooding needed a bigger part,
He's way better than Ben Affleck.
And now all I can think about is your smile,
And that sh***y movie too,
Pearl Harbor sucked and I miss you.

(Interlude)

Why does Michael Bay get to keep on making movies?
I guess Pearl Harbor sucked,
Just a little bit more than I miss you.

[F.J. Mitchell]

I meant that name to read: "Been Aflyspeck". Of course he's not even that anymore, assuming he ever was.

[hershey]

An attempt to revive a career that's dead in the water.

[tobyhill]

Wow, Ben Affleck is now a lawyer or plays one on TV. Being so smart he is, I would bet that he knows that at the most Plame's name was maybe classified as indicated by a little (c) on the end of one line of a document and the only person that could declassify that little (c) was the President?
This one really deserves the Looney Left Award for the week.

He must really enjoy the coffee.

I betcha it wasn't decaf !

[Cobra64]

"...if he did, you can be hung for that!"

The jerk never graduated from grammar school.

[Edgerunner]

he really doesn't have the time to be criticizing anyone. he needs to spend every waking hour learning to be an actor...

Affleck: Bush 'Can Be Hung' for Leakgate

Then Affleck can be hung for idiocy.

[KevinDavis]

Roger Ebert is still alive.. I think the Gigli violated the Geneva Conventions..

[Dallas59]

An actor who can't act, with no personalty, who is duller than a brick, just knows what goes on in the Whitehouse.

[PGalt]

The duck makes more sense.

*rolls eyes* afflack!
