Yes, that just happened.

I'd rather hit myself in the face with my 24 lb hammer than try to make sense of that crap. Now I know why I stay away from twitter....

At what point did we the people start looking to celebrities for their political opinions?  It just doesn't make sense to me.  These celebrities commonly lack an academic education and/or the "life of hard knocks" education.  Generally speaking they are a bunch of spoiled, pampered brats that live a life of luxury and were often times brought up that way.  I would want to look to someone who had "been there, done that" and has real life experience when I want a political opinion.  I wouldn't ask my barber for advice on building a house, I don't see the point of asking a celebrity what they think about politics.

So I'm not the only one that has trouble following a conversation on Twitter?  Makes me feel a little better.

:lol:
The tl:dr version is that Pvt. Joker (Matthew Modine) is a gun grabbing idiot and Animal Mother (Adam Baldwin) is on our side.

Most politicians are nothing more than actors so it would make sense. I can't think of a single representative that wasn't acting during their campaign.

I always liked Adam Baldwin. "I'll be in my bunk..."

That was hilarious. Baldwin, Crowder and the others played Modine into the fool he is.

For the life of me I don't understand why anyone would accept the opinion of a professional liar. :shrug:
