WASHINGTON, Feb. 26, 2007 Celebrities attending the 79th Academy Awards last night took time out from posing for the paparazzi and giving dozens of interviews to thank the men and women of the armed forces for their service.
Reserve soldiers from the 222nd Broadcast Operations Detachment, based in Los Angeles, donned their dress uniforms to step up to the red carpet outside the Kodak Theatre to record words of encouragement from Hollywood A-listers to broadcast to troops deployed around the world. |

Does anyone believe that the Hollywood types were being Honest?
You have to remember-- being an actor is just pretending to be sincere on cue.
Saying you support the troops but not their mission is like saying you support firefighters but not putting out fires.
I appreciate their support for our troops. Now could someone please tell them that actions speak louder than words?
Ping
Exactly so! BTTT
I am glad I am not the only one rolling my eyes as I read that...pfffffft
Especially since it had Gwyneth Paltrow listed...I think she is the one that said she hated America and wanted to live in Europe...ugh.
Yep you're SPOT-ON!
Be my guest.
No. Wondering how honest they were. Not much.
I do like that Robert Downey Jr. It's sad he battled drugs and it did some damage to his very promising career. Glad he's doing well now. He's a better actor than most actors in that auditorium. I hope he can make a huge comeback.
Hmmph...did anyone tell these snobs their messages were going to AMERICAN troops? They may have misunderstood and thought they were supporting "freedom fighters".
NOPE..... (insert eye roll here).
I think Clint may be the only one.
Acting is the ultimate lie.
It is really a sad state of affairs when our Troops, in Harm's Way, feels the need to ask for support.
Shame, shame, shame on Congress and the left!!!!
Plastic People do plastic things..
Here's Why!
