And now we are getting fearmongering and hatemongering from Hollywood.

And to think, Voight was one of my favorite actors.

Who does Jon Voight think he is to write a downgrading theorization of Obama?

Here we have a man who has even failed to have a healthy relationship with his children and grandchildren,and who has a failing career, pointing his finger at a successful family man, Constitutions Lawyer and Presidential Candidate.

Jon Voight forgot one simple rule when you point your finger at a person, four fingers are pointing back at you. We all know the deal, Jon Voight needed some-free press attention.

“The Democratic Party, in its quest for power, has managed a propaganda campaign with subliminal messages, creating a God-like figure in a man who falls short in every way,” he wrote in the Washington Times Monday.

CORRECT

“The Democrats have targeted young people, knowing how easy it is to bring forth whatever is needed to program their minds,” he wrote, comparing Obama’s campaign with the “Marxist propaganda underlying the so-called peace movement” in the 1960s.

"CHANGE CHANGE CHANGE"

Voight theorizes that “Obama has grown up with the teaching of very angry, militant white and black people: the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakhan, William Ayers and Rev. Michael Pfleger” who “will gain power for their need to demoralize this country and help create a socialist America” if he is elected.

TAKE THE WEALTH & POWER FORM THE PEOPLE AND GIVE IT WITH THE GOVERNMENT

The actor concludes:“If, God forbid, we live to see Mr. Obama president, we will live through a socialist era that America has not seen before, and our country will be weakened in every way.”

JUST LIKE WITH FDR (OR DO WE NOT REMEMBER?)

I've gained a new respect for Jon Voight. To think, someone in Hollywood who thinks for himself and is not afraid to deviate from the script.

I hope your insinuations are right. Why can't the republicans borrow the same leaf from the evergreen and robust democrats.

I agree 100% with Jon Voight. Obama is nothing but a socialist commie pig who will be a disaster if elected.
Praise God that McCain is now leading in the polls since Obama's middle east trip backfired on him.

Successful family man? lol I've heard all kinds of stories about how his fights with Michelle. I don't call that successful. I call that trouble. And have you seen his oldest daughter? She's the spiting image of Micelle with the wasy she acts and talks. lol I don't think you know what a successful family really is. No wonder he enjoys being away so much. Remember MLK?[;-) He looooved white meat. lolllllll

Voight showed some real courage. He called it right.

Obama should be given an Oscar too, just like Gore, for a distinguished performance. Problem is, the audience that was cheering was in Germany, loaded up with free beer and a rock concert.

Obama's back but the makeup is starting to run and his lines are back to "Ummm... Errr...Ahhh"

By the way, I loved the guy who was enraged that less-than-perfect Voight should have the nerve, the gall to criticize presumably perfect Obama. How dare that less-than-perfect individual criticize Voight?

Is this the same Jon Voight who SOLD out his own daughter, Angelina Jolie, for a few thousand dollars only to go on the tabloid show EXTRA and beg his daughter to speak to him again? That Jon Voight?

Funny to hear him refer to someone else as a 'pig' but I guess it takes one to know one.

The truth hurts, doesn't it! I'm sure Voight would be glad that you no longer admire him.

Gracie, Did you really want to use the Praise God, after saying such evil and hateful things about Obama?

Please make whatever remarks you want to make, however, when being hateful leave God out of the mix...

Yes, this is the same man who SOLD out his own daughter for a few dollars. It's really strange a person would want to give advice then the world knows this man doesnt have his act together and will do any thing for public attention.

Uh, I thought the polls didn't mean anything, since they were being skewed by slanted, liberal polling tactics. Well, at least that what your hate-mongering pals were all saying when Obama was leading in the polls.

Oh! I get it! The pools don't mean anything unless your candidate is leading. My bad. I'll try to pay closer attention next time.

Good lord! What do these nutcases eat, drink and/or smoke, and what sleep number do they use that enables them to dream up the blabbering, slobbering nonsense they post?

I am not an Obama supporter, and I approve this message.

I am sorry but I don't understand a person that will attract a child. That's low in any-one's book...
