Alec Baldwin’s Economic Advice: Forget Health Care and Destroy a Major Oil Company
NewsRealBlog ^ | Jan. 12, 2010 | Rhonda Robinson

Alec Baldwin, the hot-headed Hollywood leftist actor, has no problem sticking to the Alinsky script. In his latest Huffington Post blog, Baldwin suggests that the administration forget health care and focus on energy.

“The goal of this country’s energy policy, long-term, should be to trigger a series of events that would lead to one clear measurement of our progress. That is the collapse of a major oil company. If a major oil company went out of business, we would be on the right track.”

Still clinging to the tired “war over oil” line Baldwin continues:

“Energy policy is the lynch pin of nearly all of our other economic problems. And our dependence on oil is the tragic path that we are still on, two wars in the Middle East in twenty years later, in order to deliver oil. Oil that costs so much more than what you read at the pump. You factor in both of those wars, the deaths of our brave soldiers, and the looming bill that our society will have to pay for our lack of maturity, foresight and courage on this front, the costs are incalculable.”

Shut up, Alex.

You're a bad actor and an even worse politician.

"It’s absolutely amazing how stupid Alec Baldwin is. I’m surprised someone so breathtakingly insipid can remember lines on a script."

Yes, he reminds me of the current occupant of the Oval Office!

All the people in cold country burn your trees to keep warm.
Actors and logic like water and oil don’t mix.

Let’s not forget: To a Liberal Lefty, charity means showing up at a golf tournament, hosting a telethon, or getting together with fellow idiots to record a sappy record about guilt and other folks’ suffering, NOT reaching deep into their own pockets....

Oh Gosh wouldn’t another million people out of work in the USA be great by putting an oil company out of buisness? *sarcasm* Has anyone in Hollywood ever graduated from high school?
