Somebody's gonna have the ultimate guilt trip, courtesy of Twitterers. Edited September 1, 2010 by TL10 Quote
bytor2112 Posted September 1, 2010 Author Report Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) Funny thing about these Hollywood lefties....they are filled with hate and venom. Contrast that with Jon Voight.........frankly I wish they would just entertain and keep there venom to themselves. I have no problem with them saying," I am a Democrat" or "I support such and such"...but the over the top rhetoric makes it difficult to watch their films...much of which is filth anyways.

Elphaba Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) He also threatened to kill Michael Moore with his bare hands. "I'm thinking about killing Michael Moore, and I'm wondering if I could kill him myself, or if I would need to hire somebody to do it. No, I think I could. I think he could be looking me in the eye, you know, and I could just be choking the life out--is this wrong?"Putz, indeed.Seriously, do I believe Beck literally wants to murder Moore, or wants Kucinich to burst into flames? Of course not. He's using hyperbole to show his contempt for both figures.That's obviously what Cusack is doing as well. Beck didn't truly threaten either men, nor did Cusack truly threaten any GOP leaders or Fox.This article is a joke. Elphaba Edited September 1, 2010 by Elphaba Quote

PrinceofLight2000 Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 Just in case.......good: morally excellent; virtuous; righteous; I find it rather funny that only the liberals are the ones who promote insensitivity when it comes to these issues, both at ground zero and next door to Fox News & GOP leaders...

Elphaba Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 He is using hyperbole to entertain his audience...( I am not part of his audience)....Cusack should just pipe down and go make some more crappy movies.And the writers of the article should not make ridiculous claims that he was threatening them when it's obvious he wasn't. You posted the article, and the article is nonsense. That was obviously the point of my post.Also, why should Cusack pipe down? He was using his First Amendment right to free speech. I rarely like what you have to say, yet I would never say you should just pipe down and go make crappy movies. Actually, yes I would. Just pipe down and go make crappy movies!Elph Quote

Guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 For goodness sake people... IT'S TWITTER! Quote
beefche Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 So, what are you saying, anatess? John Cusack is a twit? Quote
BookofMormonLuvr Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 Seems the washed-up actors that can't find a good gig are always the loudest. Quote
Guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 So, what are you saying, anatess? John Cusack is a twit? Well, I love John Cusack... I mean, c'mon, Say Anything has got to be something. But, what he did say was a twit! Quote
MarginOfError Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 Seems the washed-up actors that can't find a good gig are always the loudest.Dick Cheney anyone? Quote
Guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 Seems the washed-up actors that can't find a good gig are always the loudest.Again... IT'S A TWIT ON TWITTER!And I wouldn't call John Cusack a washed up actor. He's one of the very few 80's Brat Pack member that has appeared on a movie every single year from 1983 and onto 2011 a lot of which are blockbusters. His recent film - 2012 - got him a Teen Choice Award nomination and the Hot Tub Time Machine was, of course, in typical "stupid Hollywod movie" style grossed $14Million on its opening weekend alone.Just because he is an actor doesn't mean he has to lose his opinion!

Matthew0059 Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 I'm not a fan of hyperbole or sarcasm of this type- no matter if it's Beck, Cusack, or anyone. But I do find the hoopla this generated awful funny... Quote
Elphaba Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) Cuz...he's a putz and adds nothing to the dialogue.So, what? Is that the criteria for expression--people who say ridiculous things should just pipe down?* If so, all we'd hear is crickets chirping from shore to shore, for everyone says ridiculous things at one time or another. Additionally, whose dialogue? The one between people who say what you like and people who say what you like?That's not a dialogue. That's being an ideologue.It baffles me that you, and those who agree with you, would say someone should pipe down* given the fact that the right to free speech encourages expression, even expression I don't like. I'm not saying you're denying him his right to free speech--only the government can do that. What I am saying is that the government-mandated right to free speech is founded on a belief that speaking out is a good thing. So when Americans like Cusack do so, that is a good thing, even when you don't like what's being said.In fact, you shoud be celebrating the fact that Cusack expresses himself, regardless of how ridiculous, for it means you can too.As can I. ElphLater: I changed two of my phrases, "shut up," to "pipe down" to better reflect what bytor was saying. Edited September 1, 2010 by Elphaba Quote
