Tim Robbins Speaking at 1/27/07 Iraq Protest- From Crowd

[StoogeWatcher]

Why do Robbins, Sarandon, Penn, and Fonda speak at left-wing rallies? It's because their careers are dead and they need to be in front of the camera again!

[Sanylexi]

I dont trust any of our leaders any more. Incidentally we vote them in. Or do we? I know that if you have faith in something enough you can move mountains. Together we can do much more. Don't be complacent about issues that you are passionate about. Given that they don't hurt anyone.

I have proof bush lied. Please search Hillary Clinton's views on going to war, Saddam, and WMD. Right here on Youtube. She has laid it out perfectly. I don't know why men have a problem with this Women's veracity.

Actors should stick to what they do best, "ACT" and forget about politics. I doubt if they would ever justify war or protecting American interests. They'd prefer we get attacked over and over again rather than take any assertive action against our enemys. Glad they are not in charge of our defense!

How exactlly were the Iraqies Americas enemys ??

1000 are leaving their homes every day trying to get out of the country . Thousands dead no jobs no food no shelter .Anyone who can defend this mess in Iraq is just beneath contempt .

[guidewest]

By the looks of this thread you can see just how much impact Tim had, is that crickets I here in the background?

[mo1912]

Nobody made America or Uk go they wanted to and the Iraqis dont want you there please leave ASAP !

[ddamari]

Exactly which Iraqis do you speak of here? I'm sure those associated with the Saddam group surely don't want democracy or anyone trying to inforce the UN mandates. The rest of the population, would like all the foreign terrorists, such as Iran and Syria, to move out of their country so that Iraq might be able to stabilize and democracy be given a chance to succeed.

Iraq is melting down into a civil war between Iraqi Shites and Iraqi Sunnis. We precipitated it with invasion and occupation, and monumental corporate fog-of-war corruption and incompetence. We are not saving the poor Iraqis from "Saddam" or Syria, or Iran. We are moving into the ME to extract the oil.

[cernuto]

If Bush activates the draft, I wonder how many gung ho "Americans" would be interested in a little tour of duty. He has a right to speak just like everyone else.

I've got kids. Tim has kids. Reason enough to speak your mind.

[greentiger1775]

He and the others haven't risked a thing. Name one productive thing that Tim Robbins and the others have ever done in their lives (I consider working at McDonald's more productive than acting). I totally agree with the above comment.  As someone who as been there, these people are too stupid to know what will happen until someone takes their freedom away at the point of a gun.

[FXMAHO]

Well, Tim Robbins WAS tremendous in Shawshank Redemption...Sean Penn has had his moments as well. But you are right about everything else.

[vatgrown]

That's what I said when Ronald Reagan was elected.
