Sean Penn interview with Anderson Cooper - diphtheria in Haiti

[DDTphoenix]

A lot of idiots like to criticize Sean Penn on being unAmerican or a communist or whatever but I think by the time Sean's legacy is written down he is going to be remembered for more then just an actor, He will be remembered for being a tremendous humanitarian.

[FunNotNuts]

The ignorant will "ho-hum" or call Sean a friggin communist but at least he's putting his money where his mouth is. He is right there in the trenches doing what he can and trying to save millions of people. Wouldn't we want someone fighting for us if we were in that situation?

I'm sure his heart is broken over the death of that boy. I wonder what the situation is now, over a year later? I have always admired Sean. He's as solid as they come.

I admire Sean! I may not even be a fan of his films. Seems like a true heart! So much more that just an award winning actor.

[RubberWilbur]

I don't really agree with him politically, but he is an awesome awesome actor. His characters are so real and sometimes haunting (Mystic River). I wish he would do more acting.

[afmode301]

dude, i look up and penn's still talking...

[afmode301]

@afmode301 with that said, I am a fan.

[MultiUniv3rsal]

So much jaded anger focused towards Mr. Penn, when in reality, if more were like him we could breathe a sigh of relief.

I really think that we should push for a Global Emergency Management deal, an organization that would act asap when disaster strikes. Different countries would have different roles in emergencies pre-designed, so there is no confusion. Help would be rapid, professional, and it would include everything from the initial response to the rebuilding.

@KewazingaBabinga We have enough foreign agencies and traitors in the U.S.

[thinker9661]

@KewazingaBabinga i completely agree with you. Every time something like this happens in the world, nobody can act fast enough to help the people who need emergency care right then. it's days, if not weeks by the time stuff really gets going.
