I LOVE Sean Penn. He Was Trying To Save People by Boat in NO

I bet he gets a new boat in no time.

3. I think Sean might *ucked up on this one

With the boat loaded with members of Penn's entourage, including a personal photographer, one bystander taunted the actor: "How are you going to get any people in that thing?"

5. bah!

His intentions are always good. He is no seeker of media attention, just the opposite. I truly believe he wants to do a good thing. Perhaps the photog was there to shoot what the MSM will not?

7. I think his intentions are good, too

Don't get me wrong, I just think if he wanted to help this was the wrong way to go about it.

Corporate media has been actually doing their job for a change with this disaster.

6. I believe what happened is far from what is reported in that story

Apparently Sean Penn has a friend who was stranded in New Orleans and was able to contact him. He brought in his own resources to try to find his friend and I guess the rest is history. I don't think the media ever gets a story straight.

8. no they do not

9. They mis-report everything the guy does on purpose

They call KKKarl Rove first......to get the "story".

10. ooooh

uh-oh. This has shaken my crush on Harry Connick Jr (which started 24 hours ago, after having been slightly infatuated with him about 12 years ago when I was young and lascivious).



I forgot how HOT Sean Penn has gotten. Mainly because of his politics. But did anyone else find him really sexy in 'Mystic River'? Then again, I also had a huge crush on Ralph Fiennes after 'Schindler's List', so maybe I just have some kind of psychological problem.
