Orlando Bloom, on the set of "Lord of the Rings", was bashing my mission in Iraq.

Liam Neeson has made similar statements in entertainment mags.

I figure that Irons is in that camp as well.

Yours is the statement that made no sense.

So from their statements you go to the tired 'I hate Hollywood' mantra? That's what I was talking about. Especially considering those three are not Americans.

But how would you explain some conservatives like Mel Gibson? He too, was trashing our effort in Iraq! He wasn't trashing it as much as some like these two in your post, or someone like Michael Moore. But he didn't have too many nice things to say either. Which was strange, considering his portrayal of freedom fighters and patriots in movies such as: "Braveheart", "The Patriot", "We Were Soldiers Once", etc..!

Oh no, really? I'm sorry to hear that. I really liked him in that movie, and in Pirates of the Caribbean. Maybe he'll mature and reconsider...
