Jon Voight Announces his Retirement
by drinker on Aug.22, 2009, under Economics, Politics
Apparently no body sent Jon Voight the memo about speaking out against Obama in hollywood. Although some of the things Obama has been doing are not my favorite, most of it is politics as usual. What will cause the civil war is this crap my Representative Eric Massa. “I will vote for it even if my constituents are against it”
I know that many politicians feel that the people that vote for them are ignorant morons but it is very rare and rather refreshing, if being hit the face with bucket shit is refreshing, for them to actually state it to their constituents faces. As Massa states so clearly “I will vote adamantly against the interests of my district if I actually think what I am doing is going to be helpful.” If we were talking about funding for a bridge that would be great for the district but wasteful, then he has a point. But we are talking about riping the whole health-care industry apart and starting a new government entitlement program during a severe recession and increasing debt.
One last thing, Jon I will miss seeing you in movies and biting the occasional TV star.
p.s. Jon Voight has not annouced his retirement as far as I know. It is just satire.
