Sean Penn: Moonbat Award
Over the weekend, Sean Penn addressed a crowd of dozens of anti-war zealots in Oakland, California. SF Gate wrote this article on the event.
In regards to President Bush and the use of military force in Iraq, Penn said: "it is you that has become our country's, and our constitution's, most devastating enemy." That is a fairly serious piece of rhetoric. But it gets better. He continues on by purporting that the anti-war zealots are silenced and called cowards (which is anything but true) and then proceeds onto this next little bit: "You and the smarmy pundits in your pocket, those who bathe in the moisture of your soiled and blood soaked underwear can take that noise and shove it."
Penn claims that he and the anti-war zealots support the troops, and that the Bush administration is exploiting the men and women who have chosen to serve their country, as well as their families. I've yet to see any of these Moonbats do something that actually indicates that they do in fact support the troops. Unless you count their constant demand to withdraw from Iraq and surrender to terrorist thugs.
He claims that Bush lied, yet fails to provide substantiating evidence, then goes on to say that Bush, Cheney and Rice "are villainously and criminally obscene people." Not sure where he gets that from. And goes on from their, claiming that they are exploiting our country and unable to fulfil their duties.
Penn then attacks Bush's daughters, stating that if they support Bush's policy, "how dare they not be in uniform." The only uniform Penn ever wore is the one he wore while in prison for assault and battery. To Penn, assaulting a photographer must be an act of heroism. Penn continues with, "while the children of the poor, black, white, Asian, Hispanic, and all other working men and women are slaughtered and maimed and flown back under the cover of darkness." The accompanying applause was silent, with only one or two people showing agreement to this little bit of B.S.
Incredibly, this shmoe can't even get his facts straight as he claims that civilian casualties during the past four years in Iraq amounts to "200 9/11s" which would be over 600,000 people, yet even the most liberal organizations puts the death toll at about 60,000. Talk about inflating the facts!
Penn then goes on to the current tensions with Iran and said, "Iran is a great country, a great country." At least he admits that it has a corrupt regime. He considers Iran one of our greatest future allies. No idea where he gets that. Iran, once upon a time before Jimmy Carter, was a great ally. It was Carter and the liberal-left that abounded it.
Congratualtions, Sean Penn, you have won a Moonbat Award.
