Really? I never took Tim Allen for the type.
I really don't know much about Tim Allen's politics, but "Shaggy Dog" is definitely a left wing pos. My honest opinion is that this movie might even do some damage to Allen's career. In addition to being in a left wing pos, he is made to look totally ridiculous at times.
Tim Allen wasn't really left-wing in the movie, but his daughter was in this "noble cause" of protesting because her teacher was thrown in jail for setting fire to a lab that was involved in animal testing. She was even laying down in the street with a bunch of her hippie-scum friends in a protest for her eco-terrorist teacher. Of course Tim Allen eventually comes around and joins her cause. Puke.....
