Hardball: Ron Silver just said the "DLC and Al From are right"

[RealDems]

Ringing endorsement from a guy who spoke at the Republican convention.

See? The DLC has fans -- BUSH fans.

[madhat]

1. Why aren't you watching CNN?

jeff on next....

[sundancekid]

2. Silver is a total PUKE factor even on tv (spoils the West Wing show too)

[Zeke]

5. You Nailed It

And actors who spend a lot of time politicking
are actors who cannot get acting jobs---
they're out of work.

[DaveinMD]

18. I loved his character on West Wing

I hate him now.

[Borgnine]

28. Same here.

It's hard to divorce his character from his real-life persona whenever I watch West Wing reruns, especially when he was ranting that they shouldn't be running from liberalism.

[MsMagnificent]

26. LMAO Exactly!

What a freaking has-been!
Has he had any work other than shilling for the Reprobates in the past 10 years??

Yep yep, Divorced from Reality indeed!

[Contrary1]

3. Ron Who? n/t

[grumpy old fart]

4. lol...exactly....

just another freak Hollywood rethug

[President Jesus]

8. just another? yeah, now there's 9 of them (nt)

[welshTerrier2]

6. i think you misunderstood him ...

maybe by "right" he meant right-wing ...

[President Jesus]

7. For all his talk, Silver still hasn't donated a dime to the repubs

Ron Silver's campaign contribution history

[shance]

9. The DLC's connected to the RNC's connected to the hip bone's connected

to the thigh bone.

These two seem to be more connected everyday don't they?

[CatWoman]

10. Gannon's on CNN

now.......

[Cha]

11. ron silver is a joke ...he just doesn't

know it yet..someday..he'll realize what a fuckup he is.

[farmbo]

12. Gawd...what were we thinking? I'm joining the DLC right now!

:smoke:

[dsc]

13. I love Reversal of Fortune

and Silver even made a watchable Van Damme film (Time Cop) but his politics have to go. Thank god I can seperate art and politics.

[RealDems]

27. I'm not experiencing the same kind of dissonance...

In all honesty, I never thought he was a great actor anyway. He over-pronunciates words. Sounds like a stage actor that hasn't realized he's doing film yet. There's always that sort of clicking consonant at the end of his sentences.

Alright, I digress, but when else will I have the opportunity to comment on Ron Silver's acting ability?

[Generator]

14. I think he must have meant they are" on the right"

That's what my memo says.

[KoKo]

15. Who cares what they think...???

They are just fighting to stay "relevant" and keep the DLC dollars flowing into their pockets. :eyes:

[mattclearing]

16. DLC = Bush Republicans = Neocons = Traitors

It's amazing to me that the DLC is still tolerated.

[WI_DEM]

17. apparently this guy can't even get an acting job anymore

who cares what he thinks.

[RealDems]

22. Nobody cares what Ron Silver thinks...

the part I thought was funny was the fact that the only person I can find who says nice things about the DLC is in fact a Bush voter who spoke at the convention. What's next? Zell Miller?

[DaveinMD]

19. Did you guys hear

about him yelling at Rep. Melissa Bean for 15 minutes at some DC party about what's wrong with the Democratic Party. This was mentioned on the Stephanie Miller show.

[BlueManDude]

20. Who will bet me? I say Silver will run for something soon.

The guy seems to have have left whatever "Hollywood" career he had on hold. I bet he's thinking seriously about running for something somewhere.

[AntiCoup2K4]

21. Better be in a Diebolded state.

That's the only way that hatemongering traitorous asshole is going to "win" anything.

[RealDems]

23. Hadn't thought about it, but I bet you're right

[FreedomAngel82]

24. Has there been anything

on what Dean is going to do about the DLC? Can he fire them all?

[proudbluestater]

25. They certainly aren't LEFT!

[kiki]

29. Ugh, Ron Silver.

He was on TV the other day spewing the "Not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims" line of happy horseshit.

Take your pencil neck, "child molester" beard and shitty movies and trouble us no more.

[OneTwentyoNine]

30. LOL,Ron Silver couldn't get arrested in LA,his career is long over...

So now he tries to get coverage by switching to a political tone. Hey wait...aren't Repukes the ones that always say to "ignore those Hollywood types"?

[ljm2002]

31. Well, they *are* right...

...I just wish they were left.

[TheDonkey]

32. shut the F up Ron Silver

if you liked the DLC, get the hell away from thugs.

He just wants attention I think.
