At the end of a discussion of Haiti on HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, actor Sean Penn went on a rant in defense of Venezuelan strongman Hugo Chavez, suggesting prison time for American journalists: "every day, this elected leader is called a dictator here, and we just accept it! And accept it. And this is mainstream media, who should – truly, there should be a bar by which one goes to prison for these kinds of lies."

Occasionally, you get glimpse at the true liberal mind. If they had the power, we would all be in concentration camps.

If one needed further evidence that Hollywood is not brain dead, but brain-absent, this idiot is the prime example.

The ability to be brain absent makes for excellent actors and waiters and waitresses. Seems this is a requirement for the profession. Have you seen Tom Hanks recent quotes? Funny. There seems to be a connection with stupidity and the ability to act. God is fair in his distribution of human gifts.

It wasn't really a good selling point in the long run was it.
“Drink Colt 45, become a commie loving dumb-ass...”

You're right. They certainly had to have given their OK on it. Weird marketing move.

Leo Penn supported Hitler until he violated the Molotov-Rippentrop Treaty with Stalin.

if you interfered with his free expression he’d yell First Amendment in a nanosecond

...And if the government tried to confiscate his money for "redistribution" to the "needy", he'd squeal like a stuck pig.

Ok how about this, Chavez is a dictator

Sean Penn is an idiot

One remains a dictator and the other, there is no facts in evidence that he has anything worthy in listening to, nor can any intelligent statement available in pointing to coming from his mouth or alleged brain.

“...Maher interviewing Sean Penn...”

These two are the mouths but who is behind them? What is it about HBO? That channel must have executives who want to make everything ugly, especially traditional America. HBO has an anti-American and anti-Christian agenda.

Shirley Temple as a five year old girl had more talent and brains than this clown.

RE: Leo Penn supported Hitler until he violated the Molotov-Rippentrop Treaty with Stalin.

Just like any good Commie did.

Including Pete Seeger who performed with Bruce Springsteen at Obama's Inauguration. There was a YouTube vid showing Obama singing around to "Your Land Is My Land", or whatever the name of the song is. YouTube has since pulled it from their site.

"...at the time of the Nazi-Soviet Pact, the Communists suddenly transformed the 'Anti-Nazi League' into the "Hollywood Peace Forum," calling for American neutrality and using the slogan 'Let's Skip the Next War.'..."
--Ronald Radosh, from his book, Red Star Over Hollywood: The Film Colony's Long Romance With the Left
http://www.capmag.com/article.asp?ID=4251
___________________________________________________

"[Pete] Seeger was antiwar during the period of the Nazi-Soviet Pact; pro-war after the Soviet Union was the ally of the United States; and anti-war during the years of the Cold War and Vietnam. To Nichols -a rather dense left-winger -it is good form to acknowledge that perhaps 'Stalin was a bad guy,' and then simply get over it, and move on to campaign for very American socialist causes." --Ronald Radosh (former communist)

Here's a must-see YouTube of Springsteen performing with communist icon, Pete Seeger, at Obama's inauguration. There's a flash of Obama singing along from his seat:

He was down in LA during the hurricane. He did a big photo op of getting in a boat and finding people to rescue. He was too stupid to put the drain plug in the bottom of the boat. Stupid is the key word here.

Stalinists like Sean Penn should be shoved up against the wall and ..... well, you know what happens next.

Why doesn’t Penn live there? Chavez imprisons journalists all the time. He would like that.

For your own sake, Tanker, why don’t you stop this BS already. Because all you’re doing is showing everyone how dumb you are about what’s going on in our country today. Try focusing more on doing something productive in terms of combating this attempted communist takeover of our country.
