Apparently Hugo Chavez has come out in support of Mr. Penn's stance on the war in Iraq.
Are we supposed to care?

Here's the report: Is this what a hated dictator looks like?

Cheering crowds. Travelling in an open-backed jeep . Not exactly something Bush can do in his own country shaking hands with happy people. So which president has a people who love him?

Sean Penn's highest level of education is graduating from high school. Because of this education, Sean Penn felt qualified to make the following statements about politics:
"We have a dictatorship in this country. Our government is presently the greatest threat to our people."
"I don' know if people value the thought of revolution any more. I think it would be an enormously patriotic movement to invest in the possibility of revolution."
"I am not disturbed by Ronald Reagan's Alzheimer's. You know, there's not a lot of cleaner pictures of karma in the world. I mean, it's not a very Christian way of thinking. I do stray sometimes. But I go right from him mocking the farm workers and eating grapes on television during the boycott to him dribbling today. And I feel a sense of justice."
When asked whether the Iraqi people were better off without Saddam, Penn replied: "Who the blank are we to say whether they're better off? We have a dictatorship in this country. Our government is presently the greatest threat to our people." Penn went on to say, "Unlike George W. Bush, I had a father who read the Constitution of the United States."
The guy may be a great actor, but he is a Wacko Liberal Nutcase.

Penn is someone who has his words written for him. Have you heard how he speaks when words are not there for him??? He sounds like an A*SS. If he wants to kiss Chavez A*SS he should go live there.
Why cant these actors just do what they are paid to do, speak words written for them.
The reason I get pissed off about it is that they are given time to spew and that average American will never have that soap box.

I think anyone who meets with Chavez, including Penn and Glover, are traitors. I despise President Bush, but not my country. I would never condone anyone meeting with a leader who condemns America...

Celebrities who go and visit foreign heads of state like to think they're influencing global politics, but in reality what's happening is the head of a foreign state wants to meet a rock/movie star because they're famous. It's a photo-op for the premiere, that's all.

What a ringing endorsement. A tyrannical dictator lending his support to an empty headed dolt.

If you're Sean Penn, you're grateful for any attention you get.
