He's go my vote - look at this part of his platform:
Military Funding: "I am a huge supporter of the military. I have always thought of them as our guardians, and when our guardians are making less than the poverty line, and children are suffering because their parents decided to join the military, well, I get very upset. I feel that instead of sending billions to the Pentagon's pet projects, it should go to the troops |

I like 'em |

The site is run by a Richard Strickland of Destin, Florida. Does anyone know this fellow? Is he legitimate, or a scam artist?
|
|
|
OK, Richard Strickland is the Postmaster of Defuniak Springs, FL if that means anything.
|
|
IP addy looks like it is coming out of San Antonio, TX., looking into it............

Administrative Contact and Technical Contact is Richard Strickland out of Destin, Florida. The site is hosted on EV1 servers, which is a Texas-based company, though.
|

Well, I e-mailed him and asked about hs thoughts on the 2nd amendment.
|
|
This is one candidate to watch carefully....if he's serious, and he's on our side completely, then he can count on a tremendous amount of support-from me-unless Condi is #1.

"I...think...I couldget....America..backontrack. I would...ram themessagehome...like stabbing a solderingiron in youreye." - C. Walken
|
|
If his real-life persona is a fraction of his screen persona, he would be merciless on our enemies - watch "Thing to do in Denver when your dead" sometime. He'd "buckwheat" them insurgents...... |
|
|
On Campaign finance reform:
"So he took the money and four years.....he hid it.....UP HISASS......and when died......from severe dissentary.........he handed the money.....TO ME....where....I hidthat wadofdough....upmyass......and now, I pass it onto you...." |
|
Walken HATES guns, utterly HATES them. Said so, in interviews in Parade magazine (cover story) and on NPR's Fresh Air to interviewer Terry Gross. Bad idea to back him.

When I was going to school i owned a taxi in jersey and they were shooting a movie called "home boys" with him and Mickey Rourke.
I was driving a waitress home in the cab and when we got to her apt she asked me if I could walk her up to her door because there were a lot of strangers around because they were shooting the movie on her block in Asbury park NJ. I walked her up to her door and started back to my cab, she came running out the door screaming there was a dead guy leaning on her apt door. I ran back to her apt and there was some guy laying right in front of her door. I reached down and felt the artery in his neck for a pulse, it was weak but he was alive. It was Christopher Walken and there was a needle sticking out of his right arm and the "tie off" rubber thing was loose but still wrapped around his arm. I ran down to the "set" where they were shooting and went up what I later learned was the second unit director. I told him what I knew and he grabbed two stage hands and asked me if I told anyone else or called the police. I said no because he looked to be OK , just passed out from the dope. We all went back to the girls apt and she was really shook up. The director asked us if he could stay there and I said ask her. The girl was unsure so I stepped in and said maybe the director could help her out a bit. He reached into his pocket and gave the girl $500.00 and slipped me 2 one hundred dollar bills. Christopher Walken stayed there all night and recovered and talked with the waitress and myself and the two stage hands. He was cool but I just couldn't get over the fact that the guy had everything you could want and was pissing it away on heroin. I heard he's clean now and if that's true good for him. |

Here's the NPR Interview....
... I'm listening now, will try and get a specific timestampe for the "bad shiznit" |
|
No shit. |

|
Yeah but our current and last President weren't any angels either. Besides have you seen Wild Geese? |
|
|
Why don't you elaborate on your innuendos about GWB and lets see how long you last here. |

|
He is just screaming New World Order with this line from his website:
"We need to think about improving our underbudget educational system, making better use of our resources, and helping to build a stable, safe, and tolerant global society." Check it out here: www.walken2008.com/politics.html |
|
I think that site is just a subtle satire. I mean when I think "Walken" + "President" I get "SNL skit".
|
|
That just killed my buzz. |
|
|
How about: When I was in college at Yale. One night I was walking a girl home back to her dorm. As I got there I noticed there was a huge party going on. As we got inside, there on the mirrored table....... I could care less what people think or what they claim or say. Besides, my buddy Raphael says he never took steroids.....ever..... |
|
|
Some of you boys sound just like the dorks who were lining up to suck Clinton's dick because he wore Ray-Bans and played sax on the Arsenio Hall show...
|
|
I don't think anyone is truly serious. I find it more comical than anything. |
|
|
poor attempt. -HS |

|
He's a Dem alright....... Can't be trusted..
1) We're losing jobs, losing benefits, and losing lives. Fine quote by a Dem. 2) paying attention to our children, our environment, Favorite Dem line. 3) underbudget educational system. Another famous Dem spending . 4) build a stable, safe, and tolerant global society. Wants the UN to rule.. |
|
|
I can't believe some of the post on the first page. Some of you avtually sound serious. Thankfully this is just the internet. This guy is a Hollywood weirdo. The "troop" blurb isn't anything any lib wouldn't say......wake up.
|
|
So what, it is against the COC to state that the President probably tried every recreational drug known to man during his 20s and 30s? Does that assumption have any impact on my opinion of him: nope. |

Ayup. Antigun as HELL.
Updated first post. Also putting it here. Go to this page: www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=1923150 Load up the audio in real player and skip ahead to 16:30 in the audio. [Interviewwer] I was hoping you could tell us about making this scene, and this is, uh, um, uh, from a movie called "At Close Range," in which you play a kinda small time criminal, your son is Sean Penn, you, you, you turn on your sons, um, you shoot Sean Penn's, you shoot your own son's girlfriend, you kill her. Um, you're uh, a really heartless guy in this, and, but, at the end of the movie Sean Penn is so upset with all the treacherous acts you've committed against all against your own family, that he's holding a gun on you, his father, and he's so upset -- he might really shoot you, and you're not sure how to play it. Before we hear that scene, tell us a little bit about what went into the making of this scene, and what it's like for you, as someone who doesn't really like... GUNS ... to be, uh, in front of a gun, on a movie set. [CW] Yes, well this story is based on a real family and, you now its terrible, its a terrible, sad, story. Um, when we shot this scene, I think I know what you're referring to, but, they um, and I had a gun pointed at me, and at one point, they switched the guns, and uh, that was enough to put me in a panic, I, I, really didn't know what was going on, although it, everything was being kept very safe, behind the back, just being in the dark about it, got me into a, um, huge ... anxiety attack. Anyway, that, on film, you can see that, that's about all I can tell you. That's about all it says. But smells pretty anti here. |
|
I would be pretty nervous if I was in a movie and they switched the gun that was to be used in the scene and it was going to be pointed at me. Anyways, I will post what his reply is to my e-mail about whether he is pro 2nd or not. |
|
|
I Got a Fever........and the only presciption is MORE BLACK RIFLES..............Christopher Walken is a socialist faggot weasal aside........that is all.........good actor, good communist sellout faggot :(
|
|
The jury's still out if his anti-gun or not. If he is, he's off my list.
|
|
Being Anti-gun doesn't necessarly make a man not fit to lead a country!! If the rest of the World will dissarm I'll gladly do the Same!!!! I swing a mean two iron!!!!! Bob |
|
|
I was under the impression that it did, anyone else agree ? |
||
|
He wasn't in "Wild Geese" . It was "Dogs of War" that he was in. |
||
|
Please tell me you're joking |
||
|
Hey, I'm all for that. Then I could take over this whole fucking rock with nothing more than a fork and some twine. |
||
|
You could probably take over France today with that kind of gear! |
||
|
Ehh...today I'd probably have to upgrade to a spork...maybe even a butter knife.. |
