Who's Your Favorite "Hollywood Halfwit"?

[Megashrap]

  Some interesting and very funny quotes I came across.  Just click on the Artist/Actor's names under Topic Title.  ;D  http://www.rightnation.us/forums/index.php?showforum=18

QUOTE Bono,

"I think America has no experience with terrorism or even with war. In Europe, we know a little bit more about these things."

   

QUOTE Susan Sarandon,

"What's happened to Blair? I don't understand his reasoning or his logic. I don't understand his evolution. I can see him being seduced by (former US President) Clinton but don't understand what him and Bush speak about."

QUOTE Michael Moore,

"Finally, we love France. Yes, they have pulled some royal screw-ups. Yes, some of them can be pretty damn annoying. But have you forgotten we wouldn't even have this country known as America if it weren't for the French? ... And now they are doing what only a good friend can do -- tell you the truth about yourself, straight, no b.s. Quit pissing on the French and thank them for getting it right for once."

How about calling it 'Insufficient awareness about terrorism'?

First-hand war is what that quote should read, if you want to be pedantic about what he likel actually meant.

[Dunenewt]

Europe Knows More about War and Terrorism than the U.S.

Has it ever occurred to you that that could be the truth.

[Dante]

Those first three quotes seem accurate enough.

[Megashrap]

  Newt, that was just a bit of the Moderator's sarcasm, not a quote of Bono. But I removed that so it doesen't appear a bit confusing.

[Dunenewt]

In Europe, we know a little bit more about these things.

What's wrong with this?

[Megashrap]

  Not saying there's anything wrong with that quote, if it's one of your favorites then ok, fine with me. Again this is nothing more than a little humour not a PRP(as according to europe) debate. Try to stick with the topic please.

[Dunenewt]

How's it funny, and how can it not be political?

[nemafakei]

"Try to stick with the topic please"

Pointing out that a supposedly stupid quote actually makes more sense when you look at it is not offtopic.

[Megashrap]

Asking me to answer if something a moderator said in a post is somehow right, wrong or funny and why it is, IS rather off the topic.

In Europe, we know a little bit more about these things.

What's wrong with this?

  Well if you use the entire quote,  then yes I do find it rather humorous.

QUOTE Bono,

"I think America has no experience with terrorism or even with war. In Europe, we know a little bit more about these things."

  So I gather you sort of agreed with what Mark the moderator said then vs. find a silly quote? mk duly noted.

[Dunenewt]

It wasn't vs a silly comment in the context it was in. More than likely this was the moderator's attempt at sarcasm to reflect his view on the quote but I'd have to know more about the Moderator to be sure.
