On gun control: ''I'm very troubled by the proliferation of arms; at the fact so many people in the United States carry guns. It obviously contributes greatly to the crime problems we have. I'm sure gun laws should be strengthened in the United States. I just don't know the correct mechanism.''

Has he always been such a moron, or did it start when he left his wife for Ms. Fishlips?

Ford hired a shyster to keep himself from being drafted as a CO during the Vietnam War. He's always been a horses a$$.

No. I confused them so badly that they never took action on my petition. My conscientious objection wasn't based on a history of religious affiliation, which made it difficult at that time. I went back to my philosophy training from college. I remembered Paul Tillich's phrase, If you have trouble with the word God, take whatever is central or most meaningful to your life and call that God. I always had trouble with the word or notion of God in a stand-up form. So I developed that thesis and took the biblical injunction to love thy neighbor as thyself as the central and most meaningful thing in my life. I combined it all and typed for days and sent it off and never heard a word. Never got called in. It lingered for about two and a half years and then my first wife became pregnant and I got an exemption based on that. The lawyer that I had retained to pursue my case, one J.B. Teats, told me that I owed him $5,000 as a result of my wife becoming pregnant. He showed me the piece of paper I'd signed, the simple form of a retainer, which stipulated that any more desirable draft status that was achieved during this period of time would be deemed to be the result of his interference. And he was not amused by the conjecture of the child's paternity. So for about two years he dunned me for that $5,000. I finally paid him.

Off the beaten path

I have seen him on Leno, Ford can hardly form coherent sentences.

If he hasn't been stoned for most of the last 30 years, he must have had a serious brain injury.

I never could stand him. Those "Indy" Jones flicks had the depth of comic books and had absolutely predictable plots. Ford is as dumb as granite, too.

"I'm very troubled by the proliferation of arms; at the fact so many people in the United States carry guns. It obviously contributes greatly to the crime problems we have."


That certainly makes alot of sense....NOT! Mr. Ford is worried about the amount of guns Americans carry but he's not worried in the least about the WMD's that Saddam was carrying! DUH.....

Actually his wife left him years before he met Calista Flockhart. Ford was married for 20 years to screenwriter Melissa Matheson, who penned "E.T., The Extraterrestrial." During that marriage, there were widespread runors of Ford being a raging horndog. When Matheson found out they were true, she dropped Ford like a hot potato. I've heard another widespread rumor about Harrison Ford--he's a massive pothead. According to this rumor, Ford was stoned out of his mind while presenting the Golden Globe awards.
