Angelina Jolie’s daddy, Jon Voight, a pretty good actor himself put his views out for the public for public consumption.  He did so as the emcee of a June 8th GOP fundraiser on and shared the dais with such notable Republicans as Newt Gingrich and Sarah Palin.

 The words that caught our attention were the following little ditty. “Obama thinks he is a soft spoken Julius Caesar. He thinks he is going to conquer the world with his sweet talk. He really thinks he is going to bring all the enemies’ of the world into a little playground where they will swing each other. We and we alone are the right frame of mind to free this nation from Obama’s oppression. “  

 Je…sus Christ! We and we alone are the right frame of mind to free this nation from Obama’s oppression? And he is speaking at a Republican fund raiser. Um…whoa!

 We have never said a kind word about Bill O’Reilly, another conservative blow hart.  That changes today. Voight was a guest on his show.  We watched an internet clip of Bill acting as a reporter should by asking pertinent questions such as,

“What is your essential beef with President Obama?”  Voight went into the standard conservative line…not qualified to be president in the beginning. So we are getting what was advertised. Obama is weak and leading us into chaos and socialism he muttered.

To his credit, O’Reilly pursued an answer for this man’s opinions of Obama.

“When Obama was elected, were you willing to give him a chance?” he asked.

Voight replied with the canned charges we heard during the presidential campaign.  “He was associated with the wrong people, Bill Ayers, ACORN, and Rev Wright”. Etc. etc. etc.

Doesn’t this sound familiar?

“What turned you off?” O’Reilly asked Voight.  The Stimulus Package. We are leaving our grandchildren a mountain of debt, Voight replied.

O’Reilly asked if Voight listen to Rush Limbaugh. Voight said no, he doesn’t have time and to my amazement, O’Reilly stated the Voight sounded just like him.

 It was clear that when all is said and done, Mr. Voight is a good actor and should continue to provide us with good acting in various roles. In our opinion, he should not go the Sarah Palin route of throwing a lot of charges against the wall to see what would stick route.  Come to think of it, some of the charges she threw against the wall were believed as gospel by Jon Voight as evidenced by his answers to Bill O’Reilly’s questions.
