Of all the shady, low down, nasty politicos in the USA, Nixon had Paul Newman on his watch list????? Well, that's what my local paper just said. If this is (was) a dangerous dude, I think we need a whole lot more of them. One of my absolutlely most respected men to have ever walked the face of this planet, and some asshat president thinks he's a danger to society. Makes some of our current political BS seem a bit crass. Argghh. Rant over.

He's one of my dad's favorite actors. He will always stop at a channel showing one of his movies and just as often say something along the lines of "He might be a commie like rest of Hollywood but at least he puts his money where his mouth is". Couple bottles of Newman's dressing can always be found in the fridge. He was a hell of a guy. http://www.newmansownfoundation.org/

Sorry to hijack, but the Bobcat reference reminds me: Anyone here see "World's Greatest Dad"? I'm very intrigued, despite the presence of The Overacting One.

Supposedly released, but I can't find it anywhere (and I am in LA)!!!. I hear it is pretty good. The Overacting One is capable of some good movies every once in a while.

The thing I found interesting is that they have released what looks to be the Wild Hogs of parenting movie with the Overacting One and Vinnie Barbarino, looks horrible. I can't imagine they would want to link the two movies, but it looks like Old Dogs is getting WAY more advertising then Worlds Greatest Dad. Typical hollywood BS!!!!

BTW - It looks like Sandra Bulluck will have ANOTHER movie coming out this year!!

Um, Nixon's Watch list was basically the 1970 Census report.

In reply to GlennS:

how about anyone that has spoken out against his master plan? he'll either deny they exist (tea party) or have his people spread the word that anyone that opposes his plan must be racist and not worth listening to.

and i never said he would be going after them

How could Obadness have a list from Hollywood? They are all so out of touch with reality and the worth of money that they all want Big Brother cause it doesn't apply to them and being for something like that makes them look like they care for the little people.
