I really don't know much at all about his political opinions. I mean, I know he's liberal, but I don't know what he's said that provoked so much venom. I probably don't want to know.
I just know that he comes off as a nice guy, certainly one with a sense of humor, and that he's a terrific actor and an underrated writer(Bob Roberts, Dead Man Walking screenplay, Cradle Will Rock).
this statement is very accurate for the past 2 years.............before that he and his wife were approaching the same level of retoric and venom as Michael Moore......they did and said some crazy things...........but he realized it was wrong paid a bit of a price for it and apologized..........Last year before the Oscars (later that night he would win an award) some reporters were trying to bait him into talking about the war and Bush and whatever..........and he politely sidestepped every question and said..."Hey listen.....I'm an actor first and tonight that's all I want to talk about" I liked him again ever since then even though I don't agree with him.
