Ahh Yes; the red cup of relief.
Well, he gave it a shot; still got his photo op Speed |
|
That cup was probably fot the keg of beer that was on the boat.
|
|
Because regardless of his intentions, he is still a leftist asshat, who when given a choice will side with America's enemies....
|
|
Because those that are in the Film Actors Guild are great comedians |
|
|
Because he brought his personal photographer.
Doesn't like the poperazzi, but hey, bring your own for a photo-op and it's OK. Hey, it's good he's trying to help, but it's just a transparent PR stunt. He has rescued his two poor folk, now he'll leave and tell us all he did it because Bush couldn't. ETA: He has some money, I hope he donated some money and blood. |
|
The story goes that he had so many people in the boat to capture his "rescue mission" that there wouldn't have been room for anyone that actually needed to be rescued. On top of that is his view that Bush is an idiot and Hollywood was here to save the day. Well who's the idiot now? |
|
|
Ah yes...FAG! The ass forgot to put the plug in the boat! Helping is one thing, but when you bring a camera crew it's called grandstanding. |

Anyone that takes their own personal photographer with them to save people, is |

Hopefully he's donating large amounts of cash, theonly way he can really help.
|
|
Because he's not REALLY trying to help, he just wants the press. If he really wanted to help he'd tell the cameras to go home and get busy. Buy he won't do that. GR |

Penn accuses Bush amid rescue chaos
The US government was accused of "criminal negligence" as hopes of finding survivors faded and the death toll from Hurricane Katrina continued to rise. Holidaymakers returning to the UK spoke of the scale of the misery while one said leering police officers demanded young women flash their breasts in return for help. Oscar-winning Hollywood actor Sean Penn, who has been assisting rescue efforts in New Orleans, said the US government did not "seem to be inclined to help". "We were pulling drowning people out of the water, it's the ultimate distress and human suffering ... dead bodies," he told GMTV. Penn said he had spent nine hours on Monday searching the water for people and during all that time he saw just three boats carrying US officials. "There are people that are dying right now and I mean babies and old people and everybody in between - they're dying. There are people dying and (the US government are) not putting the boats in the water, I think that's criminal negligence. I don't think anybody ever anticipated the criminal negligence of the Bush administration in this situation." The US authorities were also castigated by British bus driver Ged Scott, from Wallasey, Merseyside, who was on holiday in the New Orleans area. He stayed in the Ramada Hotel during and after the devastation with his wife, Sandra, and seven-year-old son Ronan. At one stage, Mr Scott, 36, had to wade through filthy water to barricade the hotel doors against looters. He told the Liverpool Daily Post: "I couldn't describe how bad the authorities were. Just little things like taking photographs of us, as we are standing on the roof waving for help, for their own little snapshot albums. "At one point, there were a load of girls on the roof of the hotel saying 'Can you help us?' and the policemen said 'Show us what you've got' and made signs for them to lift their T-shirts. When the girls refused, they said 'Fine' and motored off down the road in their boat." |

WTF?!?!? I haven't heard that one yet! |
|

sounds like a load of BSar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=1&f=5&t=387138 |

I love the irony. So many celebrities think that being famous makes them an authority on everything. On our local news this morning they said that some of the stranded survivors were mocking Sean Penn, asking him how he intended to save people in such a small boat, especially when it was sinking. |
|
|
i heard he was down there to do some reporting for some rag...
d00p, btw... |
|
|
Maybe cause he brought his own public relations group with him and didn't have any room in the boat for survivors. He was on FOX and said they needed bullhorns and some other things... I guess he's still a Geraldo wannabe for the San Francisco paper. |

|
He's not interested in helping. Not really. He's interested in trying to make Bush look stupid. If he were truly interested in helping, him and his camera crew and personal devotees would have used all that money they wasted on their little "adventure" and paid some professionals to go in and get results. This was a about BUSH, not about victims. |

About Penn: an old German saying springs to mind.... Rub a Dub Dub, Three men in a tub, Fire One. Down scope. |

you mean edited for spelling??? Yes, the spelling nazi strikes again |
|
|
Notice how Penn is on his knees...I'm thinking he's in that position a lot...
|
|
That's the Hollywood salute. |
|
|
Those are some darned good photochops! Right-click, Save as... Right-click, Save as...
|
|
It would surprise me if those good ol boys "forgot anything" . I'm wondering if penn just freaked at some water swishing around in the bottom of the boat . He looks like the only one concerned .
|
|
you know he brought that camera to document all of Bush's "crimes"...I'm sure the pix would find their way on Michael Moore's website, and Soros would have a field day with them. |

You think that back during the great flood Penn's relation told Noah; "I will take the unicorns on my boat."
|
|
|
|
|
lol.. |
|

It does appear to be Douglas Brinkley, author of the John Kerry Swift boat biography, in the boat with Penn - the middle of the three here.
You have to wonder what that's about. Research, maybe. or "Author Douglas Brinkley and Sean Penn are seen here re-enacting John Kerry's first Purple Heart engagement. Penn was heard to scream,..._____" |
