Can we just revoke his passport and be done with him?
 

Sean Penn Praised by Venezuela's Chavez

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has praised Sean Penn for his critical stance against the war in Iraq, saying the two chatted by phone and soon plan to meet in person.

Chavez said Penn traveled to Venezuela this week wanting to learn more about the situation in the country and walked around some of Caracas' poor barrios on his own.
"Welcome to Venezuela, Mr. Penn. What drives him is consciousness, the search for new paths," Chavez said Wednesday in a televised speech. "He's one of the greatest opponents of the Iraq invasion."
Chavez read aloud from a recent open letter by Penn to President Bush in which the actor condemned the Iraq war and called for Bush to be impeached, saying the president along with Vice President Dick Cheney and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice are "villainously and criminally obscene people."
The socialist president, who shares those views, said he and Penn talked by phone—"with my bad English but we understood each other more or less."
Chavez said the two plan to meet Thursday. He called the actor "well- informed about what is happening in the United States and the world, in spite of being in Hollywood."
What's more, Chavez said, "he's made great films." The Venezuelan leader said he recently watched Penn's Oscar-winning performance in the film "Mystic River."
For his part, Penn on Wednesday toured Venezuela's new film studios on the outskirts of Caracas. Penn, whose visit was unannounced, did not speak publicly.

Thanks for the info but :trustme: No one cares........about what he say's, or does.

I'm pretty sure the people that he helped to rescue after Katrina cared. He was down there going house to house and bringing people to dry land when FEMA was still sitting on their ass.

And even when he was down there helping people, there were stories in the news trying to make him look like an ass....

The media simply has no shame. Penn is a good guy. You may not agree with his politics, but he means well. I DO agree with his politics.

With regard to :

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez and that whole issue;
no matter how "well- informed, no matter his politics it
seriously makes no difference. He will not change a thing.

This post was about "Sean Penn Praised by Venezuela's
Chavez correct? I stand by my statement. For every Sean
Penn who thinks he has a handle on things, there's
someone else who will disagree. Result? Checkmate.

Stalemate? :)

Sean Penn for sainthood! :tsk:

Wasn't he supposed to move out of America after G.W. was elected president?

Was that before or after his boat sank because they forgot to put the drain plugs in prior to launching?

:rofl:

To his credit - at least he was off his ass and trying to do something. I don't recall Clooney doing anything but running his f-ing mouth.

It's amazing how people will grasp at any Hollywood idiot who simply bashes Bush. If they only swallowed the same medince they preach. Like the global warming preachers flying from place to place in their large private jets and driving Suburbans. Hypocrits.

Correct-a-mundo. :thumbup:
