OK, how many R. Lee Ermey fans around here?

There are now banner ads here on DU where he's promoting registering to vote. Chuck Norris, too. I'm registered, but I don't think they'll like my voting choices!

I am posting this here in the Lounge just because I think it's funny.

He was excellent in "Full Metal Jacket" and I enjoyed his show "Mail Call" but he's in Ted Nugent area when he speaks his mind.

What can I say? I had a DI just like him.

Didn't know about his politics, because I don't dig into celebrities' private lives much. Not interested.

He won't influence my choices in any event.
