FUCK YOU, Ben Stein!

[in_cog_ni_to]

THIS from an asshole that supports a political party that SLAUGHTERS our soldiers? FUCK HIM! What an asshole. This shit isn't going to fly anymore. People now know DEMOCRATS, LIBERALS and PROGRESSIVES are the ONLY ones who give a rats ass about our troops. He can take his hypocrisy and SHOVE IT!

I just love how these ex-hollywood people make their MILLIONS (Ben Stein, Dennis Miller and Mel Gibson, ect..) and then have the nerve to turn around and question the "hollywood types'" politics. They all SUCK. They make their millions and THEN let their true colors shine through. Rat bastards. Typical repukes.



Stein Says Soldiers Snubbed During Oscars
By Associated Press
56 minutes ago

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - Ben Stein says the people who truly were snubbed on Oscar night weren't those who didn't win, but were the American military personnel serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Speaking Thursday at a Kent County Republican Party fundraising dinner, the conservative humorist, writer and political pundit said movie stars and film industry professionals failed to highlight the sacrifices of soldiers during the Academy Awards on March 5.

"Not one prayer or moment of silence for those who have given their lives," said Stein, who also has acted ("Ferris Bueller's Day Off") and hosted a game show ("Win Ben Stein's Money"). "And they complain about (falling box office numbers). Stop spitting in the face of Americans and maybe we will go to the movies."

He said the real stars aren't his Beverly Hills neighbors but the soldiers "wearing body armor in 130-degree heat, pulling 24-hour shifts" in the so-called Sunni triangle, the dangerous area of armed insurgents in Iraq.<snip>

1. Who wound up Ben...

I didn't know he was still alive.

[MADem]

19. He's reminding people that he still lives

Craven self-promotion, anyone???? To which Mr. Stein replies, "Why yes, please!"

Quite frankly, that former Nixon staffer is NOT my idea of Academy material--it's sort of like expecting Anna Nicole Smith to comment on an esoteric scientific debate.

[Kerrytravelers]

2. And if they had mentioned the soldiers in the acceptance speeches,

they would have been accused of using their public position to play politics and "pretend to support our troops."

You know it, it was a total no-win situation.

in fact, it is ben stein who is using the troops, "pretending" to support them when he votes and supports for the terrorists, the genocidal maniac who sent them over there to begin with.

:eyes:

[SeattleGirl]

11. Great minds think alike Kt! I just posted almost the same

thing in #9 below.

[Sequoia]

3. Nixon speech writer.

'nuf said. What a jerk.

[The_Casual_Observer]

4. I don't remember him making any suggestions before this.

Why all this concern all of a sudden.

[IsItJustMe]

5. And an apple is an orange and an orange is an apple and on and on and on

[movonne]

6. And the horse he rode in on...

[SammyWinstonJack]

7. I can not stand him!

I watch "Sunday Morning" on CBS, the one morning show left for me to enjoy and they give him a commentary spot. I leave the room so I won't be tempted to throw something at my TV. He is an A$$.

[proud2BlibKansan]

10. I quit watching that show because of him

[SammyWinstonJack]

28. I don't blame you there. It is disgusting to say the least.

Pisses me off to no end that they let him spew his elitist crap! I like the show otherwise and it is the only morning show, out of all the other I use to watch. Can't stand "Good Morning America" Or "The Today Show" Katie and Matt make me want to :puke: And Charlie Gibson is such a tool, what can I say about Diana Sawyer? :eyes:

[Bluebear]

8. Not one prayer or moment of silence- FROM THE PRESIDENT!!

When the fuck does HE go to a funeral or acknowledge the dead outside of saying "it's hard work"? Fuck you, Stein.

[UrbScotty]

15. Right on (nt)

[LisaLynne]

16. Right on!

The PRESIDENT and this idiotic administration are the ones who won't allow photographs of the coffins that return to the US seemingly DAILY. Who's ignoring what exactly, Ben Stein, you meaningless, pompous asshat.

[Iris]

20. Right on! n/t

[SeattleGirl]

9. And I'll bet anything that if they HAD done something,

Ben or some other repuke hack would have stomped all over the "Hollywood Liberals" for "using" the soldiers to make themselves look better, or some such shit like that. Sometimes I just roll my eyes over this crap, because truly, it doesn't matter what Dems/Liberals do. The hacks will find some way to spin it and make us wrong. So, fuck 'em.

[in_cog_ni_to]

12. I know. How many weeks ago were the Academy Awards?

:eyes: They're losing their quick draw on the spin machine too.

[SeattleGirl]

18. A couple of weeks ago. My, they ARE slowing down....

Hehehehehe!

[Kerrytravelers]

26. Yes! Great minds do think alike!

:pals:

[AlCzervik]

13. your thread had me with "Fuck you"

and if he cared so much about the troops so much than he should want them home. Gee i wonder how much stock he has in defense contractors?

[aden_nak]

14. That's Ben "Nixon Didn't Do Anything Wrong" Stein.

Just for the record.

[longship]

17. And fuck your money, too.

nt

[Blue Belle]

21. Well, Ben, when you win your Oscar, you can make the speech you want...

to make - but we all know the closest Ben Stein will ever get to an Oscar is armchair quarterbacking oscar acceptance speeches two weeks after the Oscars have occurred. :eyes:

Note to Ben: Perhaps you should maybe do a movie that is Oscar worthy before you comment on how they should be run. Bitter much?

[TNDemo]

22. If Americans were allowed to see the coffins when they were

brought home maybe we could show them some respect. Apparently we are supposed to ignore them.

[mediaman007]

24. Great observation!

[bunkerbuster1]

23. I want to win Ben Stein's Money!

...so I can wad it up and shove it up his ass.

[DenaliDemocrat]

25. Yeah,

Plus he takes incredible working dogs the german shorthaired pointer and turns them into show dog beauty contestents.

[Swamp Rat]

27. Ben Stein: Upstaging soldiers to get attention.

What a low life media whore! :puke:

[ladjf]

29. Stein easily makes the top list of biggest slime ball Republican

shills. Not one word from his mouth should be listened to. Tune that guy out!
