Tim Robbins? Isn't he the one that called our Prsident Bush an idiot drunk?

I seem to remember a threat by him to beat up a reporter that was saying something about Susan Sarandon's mother that he did not like. Susan Sarandon is going to move out the the U.S if McCain wins isn't she?

Our neighbor, Del Arte, has interesting freinds.

Bonnie Neely should like all of this conservative bashing going on.

Politics, makes one think of the Blue Lake sewer pond.

All GWB need to do is sign executive order and So Sorry, no election. If you no like, you go to internment camp without charges or lawyer. GW and Cheney will hold onto White House and start another war while declaring State Of Emergency. Election will be cancelled.

tinman- you ARE so sad.

Oh, and by the way 'president' Bush IS
an idiot drunk! Or havent you noticed?

Or is there something you've missed the last 7 years?

Tim is a very intelligent American citizen with some opinions. No one says you have to go listen to him, any more than I have to watch Fox Lies-oops-I mean 'news'.

(And BTW, Im sure Jane Fonda feels real bad she helped mess up your neato Vietnam war too.........)

you forgot about the cocaine when you mentioned drunk.

son of a Herion dealer ( zapata oil ) invaded Afghanistan the day BEFORE 9/11 and secured only the POPPY FIELDS, which the sunnis had shut down to NO Production of Poppy.

Obama, Clinton, McCain are all funded by the same people, muppets. The Nation is dead, and now will starve itself into third world status.
sick of it all

This is a joke thread.

No reason at all to inject that line into the story Ryan, you know that.

I give this story a 3 on a scale of 1-10.

Thats too bad Ron.
You MIGHT actually LEARN something!
Being an actor doesnt make you less of
a citizen. But people here would obviously prefer
to wallow in doom and gloom, and make statements like:

"Obama, Clinton, McCain are all funded by the same people, muppets. The Nation is dead, and now will starve itself into third world status. "

Can you back up Obama being funded by the 'same people'?

We'd all like to know.

My being a senior citizen probably has something to do with not knowing who Tim Robbins is... I quit paying attention to Hollywood a long time ago...

Welcome to Mr. Robbins and his lovely wife, Ms Sarandon. I am sorry I will be out of town that week or I would attend the event.
Hurray to them for coming to Humboldt where they will be welcomed by many who do admire and respect them and their political philosophy.

You know that movie will be made at some point. Should be made into a comedy. Or a training video... a "How NOT To".

I may not like the guy, but I will at least listen to what he has to say if given the chance. If there are people who will come to listen to him. So be it.
Let him come. I don't think any of the "world is run by aliens" crap is necessary in this thread, though.

Yes. The Democrat and Republican Candidates are backed by the same power brokers. Here is some investigative reporting on who backs the Presidential Candidates, and the Clinton/Obama "secret" late night meeting.

Packing In Public: Gun owners tired of hiding their weapons embrace 'open carry'

Nicholas Riccardi
LA Times
Sunday, June 8, 2008

PROVO, UTAH -- For years, Kevin Jensen carried a pistol everywhere he went, tucked in a shoulder holster beneath his clothes.

In hot weather the holster was almost unbearable. Pressed against Jensen's skin, the firearm was heavy and uncomfortable. Hiding the weapon made him feel like a criminal.

Then one evening he stumbled across a site that urged gun owners to do something revolutionary: Carry your gun openly for the world to see as you go about your business.

In most states there's no law against that.

Jensen thought about it and decided to give it a try. A couple of days later, his gun was visible, hanging from a black holster strapped around his hip as he walked into a Costco. His heart raced as he ordered a Polish dog at the counter. No one called the police. No one stopped him.

Now Jensen carries his Glock 23 openly into his bank, restaurants and shopping centers. He wore the gun to a Ron Paul rally. He and his wife, Clachelle, drop off their 5-year-old daughter at elementary school with pistols hanging from their hip holsters, and have never received a complaint or a wary look.

Jensen said he tries not to flaunt his gun. "We don't want to show up and say,'Hey, we're here, we're armed, get used to it,' " he said.

But he and others who publicly display their guns have a common purpose.

The Jensens are part of a fledgling movement to make a firearm as common an accessory as an iPod. Called "open carry" by its supporters, the movement has attracted grandparents, graduate students and lifelong gun enthusiasts like the Jensens.

"What we're trying to say is,'Hey, we're normal people who carry guns,' " said Travis Deveraux, 36, of West Valley, a Salt Lake City suburb. Deveraux works for a credit card company and sometimes walks around town wearing a cowboy hat and packing a pistol in plain sight. "We want the public to understand it's not just cops who can carry guns."

Police acknowledge the practice is legal, but some say it makes their lives tougher."
