for those of you who don't want to give Drudge the traffic.

Harrison Ford blasts US Iraq policy

At a safe distance from his homeland, veteran Hollywood actor Harrison Ford launched a broadside at US policy on Iraq, his country's gun laws - and the film industry for producing "video games" for teenagers.

"I'm very disturbed about the direction American foreign policy is going," said Ford, with US post-war casualties having exceeded those during the actual conflict.

And, yes, I'm sure they will be issuing a call to boycott him and trashing yet another Hollywood liberal.

ON EDIT: We obviously are all of the same opinion on clicking through Drudge. LOL!

5. They're not only going to lynch him, they'll shit themselves
at the reference to America's 'liberal' gun laws. Of course, 'liberal' means generous and free, but they're going to use the word in the wrong way. They always do.

When he was doing his Indiana Jones flicks, he was being touted as the "New John Wayne." Not any more. It looks like Vader and all his minions could never get him to join the Dark Side.

7. Freepers will have to give up their Tom Clancy flics.
The main protaganist of many Tom Clancy novels (and their subsequent film adaptations), was agent Jack Ryan. Both Alec Baldwin and Harrison Ford have portrayed Jack Ryan in various Tom Clancy films. Seeing how Freepers call for boycotts against any Hollywood figures who disagree with the BFEE, it looks like they're going to have to stop viewing many of their beloved Tom Clancy potboilers. Oh well, they still have Ben Affleck.

8. It must suck to be a conservative right about now.
No Harrison Ford movies. No French wine. No Tim Robbins or Susan Saradon. No Danny Glover, no Dixie Chicks (maybe no Toby friggin Keith either!), No Al Franken, Joe Conason or Greg Palast. No Alex Baldwin (for what it's worth), no Sean Penn, Neil Young, or Ben & Jerry's. Arnold is on a precipice, Roy Moore is one step away from a retirement home. And Bruce Springsteen must be on thin ice with them.

Our soldiers prefer the AK47, Guliani let the White House lie to his city, Tony Blair is goin' down, and the whole REASON for the war-cheap gas- is a total disaster.

Will Bush even carry Texas?

9. Yeah, where is the cheap gas?
That should make them think about things if nothing else does.

11. Honey, don't even make me start to dream that dream. We are just
trying to keep the reps we now have.
