Left field quotes.Lets put these guys and gals in office
Janeane Garafola
"Our country is founded on a sham: our forefathers were slave-owning rich white guys who wanted it their way. So when I see the American flag, I go, 'Oh my God, you're insulting me.' That you can have a gay parade on Christopher Street in New York, with naked men and women on a float cheering, 'We're here, we're queer!' -- that's what makes my heart swell. Not the flag, but a gay naked man or woman burning the flag. I get choked up with pride."
I don't think its pride thats chokin her.
Jessica Lange While in Spain
?As far as the political situation in the US is concerned, we are facing a dangerous and extremely unfortunate administration. The way I see it, the presidential election was stolen by George W. Bush and ever since we have all been suffering the consequences. I think that the most recent thing with Iraq is absolute insanity, and I cannot believe that there is not opposition to it on a more global scale and that there is not more opposition in the country on the part of the sane people, including politicians, but also students and artists.
?There has to be a movement to really oppose what Bush is proposing, because it is unconstitutional, immoral and basically illegal. I find it particularly reprehensible the way he acts like he was in a western, intimidating the rest of the world. What can I say? I hate Bush; I despise him and his entire administration, everything he represents and everything he has tried to do, not only internationally, which is horrific, but domestically as well.
?In my country the atmosphere is poisoned. Unbreathable for those of us who are not on the right. So thank you for inviting me to this festival and allowing me to leave there for a few days.?
Fews days,why not stay there forever if its so enjoyable.
Dusin Hoffman
?There must be people who remember World War II and the Holocaust who can help us get out of this rut."
Dah Excuse me but I thought we were the ones that liberated them from.
Michael Moore after 9/11
"Many families have been devastated tonight. This just is not right. They
did not deserve to die. If someone did this to get back at Bush, then they
did so by killing thousands of people who DID NOT VOTE for him! Boston, New
York, DC, and the planes' destination of California--these were places that
voted AGAINST Bush!"
Ya I quess he was in office in 93 world trade blast too.
Robert Altman/ after election
"It [shooting a film in Britain] was the best experience of my life, with actors and with crews -the whole process. If you asked would I live in London the rest of my life, yeah, I'd be very happy to stay here. There's nothing in America that I would miss at all."
Then what the f--k you still doing here?
Sean Penn
?I don?t know if people value the thought of revolution any more. I think it would be an enormously patriotic movement to invest in the possibility of revolution.
?You guys misprinted me. You had me talking about some kind of cultural revolution, and I was talking about taking arms against the government.... I don?t know if revolution is practical because the technology is such that we?d lose. But I think there?s an enormous amount of room for an activism that I, shamefully, am not yet enough of a participant in. But it?s starting to come. You see these kids now.... Nothing like Seattle happened in 20 years. It is a very hopeful thing.?
Hmm don't think you win either Sean. Lets see-draft dodgers vs military,no food,problems with communications with diverse languages, no industry to produce revenue,but lots of expenses for entitlement programs---I know! Just make a movie of it happening and prentend it happened!
Whoopi Goldberg
"I don't agree, you see, I don't really view communism as a bad thing."
