Jon Voight’s opinion in the WaTimes the other day pretty much hit the “Hussein” on the head … Now seems as though Hollywood’s gotta play Tonya Harding to Voight’s Nancy Kerrigan. Which is approprite since the post’s authro, Jeffrey Wells is a militant homosexual, who hates anything Coservative and a threat to free-flowing, unchecked perversion.

And THIS is all they got …

Fallen

by Jeffery Wells - (Hollywood Elsewhere)

I’ve never thought of Jon Voight as intellectually challenged, but it’s hard not to at least consider the possibility after reading his 7.28 Washington Times op-ed piece slamming Barack Obama. “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,” Voight wrote. “It seems to me that if Mr. Obama wins the presidential election, then Messrs. Farrakhan, Wright, Ayers and Pfleger will gain power for their need to demoralize this country and help create a socialist America.”

Me Here: Question - Ummm, EXACTLY what was it Voight said in his ‘piece’ that was incorrect about the dem candidate and his intentions and agenda for this country?

I finally get what Angelina Jolie has been on about all these years. (I think.) Most people reading the Voight piece will say, “Okay, the Times gave him the rope and he hung himself.” But you’d think an arch conservative working in an overwhelmingly liberal town would think about restraining himself for expediency’s sake, if nothing else.

Me Here: Translation - Voight should have “black-listed” himself into silence …

My honest deep-down reaction is that I now have a reason to feel negatively about the guy. I’m not saying Voight is on the HE shit list (although the idea certainly feels good — just as it felt good to imagine the same thing last spring about Tina Fey when she became a rabid Hillary person on SNL), and I certainly don’t think a symbolic condemnation along these lines would matter much to anyone. Nonetheless, it’s going to be hard henceforth not to think of Voight as some kind of diseased wingnut.

Me Here: Translation - “Don’t be talkin’ about my boyfriend Obama like that, Voight!”

I’ll always admire and respect Voight’s better performances (Luke in Coming Home, Reynolds in Enemy of the State, Ed in Deliverance, Howard Cosell in Ali, Manny in Runaway Train, FDR in Pearl Harbor, Jack in Desert Bloom, Paul Serone in Anaconda). And he’s obviously entitled to say and write whatever he wants. But it’s only natural that industry-based Obama supporters will henceforth regard him askance. Honestly? If I were a producer and I had to make a casting decision about hiring Voight or some older actor who hadn’t pissed me off with an idiotic Washington Times op-ed piece, I might very well say to myself, “Voight? Let him eat cake.”

Me Here: Translation - The idiotic and intentional dismissal of Voight’s outstanding performance in “The Champ” … and highlighting fucking “Anaconda” is pure evidence this shit-head doesn’t, and never has, liked Jon Voight …

Wells SWINGS … and a MISS!!!
