The NY Post one wouldn’t load for me, but the two I saw do not show any factual evidence of Sean Penn hating America or loving dictators.
The News Busters site quotes him as saying, “You don’t know that I have a friendship with Hugo Chavez, you just read it in some piece”. That’s not saying he’s buddy-buddy with the guy, that’s saying nobody knows and he’s never admitted any friendship with Chavez. He also said that Chavez is more positive for Venezuala than negative. He did not say Chavez is more positive more America. Venezuala’s interests are different than America’s and Penn made no comment (at least not that was quoted on that site) on Chavez’s impact on America.
How many of us can say we’ve read our own Constitution cover-to-cover, let alone that of another nation? Good for him.
And calling somebody fascinating does not mean you love them. I find Hitler, Stalin, Lenin and Pol Pot fascinating; but would I want to be friends with them – can’t say I would from my current vantage in history. I think Bush is fascinating. I also think Bush is an idiot.
Calling Fox News “loons” does not make him evil, it just means he has an opinion.
Sorry people, I see nothing here that proves Sean Penn is anything more than a political actor. I even took the time to read the first two installments of the Chronicle series on Iran – seemed very balanced and fact-based to me. I can’t verify his facts, but he didn’t opine too much in the piece.
So, to sum up, those that think Sean Penn is an America-hating dictator-loving evil piece of crud are voicing their opinions. Those that think otherwise are voicing theirs.
Regardless of what your point is, Sean Penn is still less than the brown stinky stuff I might find on the bottom of my shoes if I’m not careful where I walk.
Who appointed you God and judge of others ?
You must have an ego as large as you really are small. To make such an ugly statement much come from someone with alot of ugliness inside. Clean yourself up before judging others. Judge Not, lest ye be judged. Your glass house is very transparent.
Penn is one of the most virulent lovers of anti-american dictators in the world. That’s just a fact. He would be happy to confirm that for you, but a little research on your part, rather than a knee-jerk reaction, would show that. Live in the real world, so called observer.
…, and C.O. since when do any of us need your permission to have an opinion???? Read the rest of that passage! “[for the standards that you judge, so shall you be judged]” Your own intolerance discredits your point.
No N.I., that’s not a fact. It’s your opinion and you are completely entitled to it just like Mr. Penn is completely entitled to his opinion. This is America, no?

Don’t pay to see the USA bashing, dictator lover’s movie, Into the Wild.
and you opinion of the President of the United States bowing and kissing the hand of King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia?
Why don’t you clarify what you are talking about.

Please check with your shrink. You need a medication change.
Still haven’t explained your previous post, assuming observer and casual observer are one and the same.

Amen, Nobody.
Sean Penn has had anger issues forever and he has made no secret about his poopy opinions.
What’s wrong with ad expressing a poopy opinion about Sean Penn?
