Remember when Bruce Willis said he wanted to join the military so he could help fight in Iraq but they wouldn't take him because he was too old? It's just a shame Mr. Tough Guy couldn't find an employer in Iraq like Halliburton to hire him as a security worker or truck driver so he could help out.
More crap from willis to promote yet another gun ho 1980s type ultra violent film ,no doubt the next film will see him defeat 20,000 muslim terrorists and willis will say he got the part because he bought some halal meat the week before.
You can say whatever you want about whatever administration, but Bruce Willis and his Die Hard character deserves respect. He and a handful of others defined the modern action film, and whether you like the genre or not, Die Hard films are relatively awesome in comparison to what else is out there.
Also, does driving truck for Haliburton help America? I'd imagine he'd just be taking away a (very) nicely paying job from some trucker here in the US who wants to make some extra cash -- and we all know Willis doesn't need it.
If he kills Muslims, and specifically Muslims, I think there would be a larger uproar than just the sheer quantity of Muslims he killed. If you mean 'terrorist' when you say 'Muslim', I think you need rethink your own idea of prejudice. In fact, I'm not even sure if DH4 is about Middle-Eastern terrorism; I haven't seen it. Honestly, in this day and age if they try to pull another Sum of all Fears sort of crap, I think it'd detract from any sort of pseudo-realistic storyline. I doubt anyone's really afraid of former-soviet Bloc terrorist groups the same way they are of Middle-Eastern extremism -- they (thankfully) don't currently have the credentials.
DH4 should be fun, and that's all it should or need to be.
Yaaaawwwwwmnnn, That is too funny. Thanks for a good laugh.
like bush God came to him and told him to do this
Hey Willis actually supports the troops. Unlike so many lefties that claim they do, then believe everything the left wing media says about them that is bad.
Dude, I'm progressive, I'm left wing, I'm a supporter of our troops. I'm also opposed to the war. If you can't wrap your little mind around that, step away from Fox News, turn off Rush Limbaugh, and get yourself some education in world history and critical thinking. You don't know what you are writing about.
*YAWN* Dude you do not support the troops if you don't support what they are doing. Saying otherwise is has been and will forever be disengenuos. As for Fox and Moore I bet more left wingers pay attention to them than any other group. I sure don't
Rush Moore Limbaugh I made a funny without even trying !!!! LOL
If you're going to accuse those who don't support what the soldiers are doing of not supporting the soldiers, maybe you need to meet more soldiers. We prefer to be supported as people than as political agendas.
The administration that supposedly supports us has cut the number of soldiers in half when we were already under 80% manning in most places; given most of the increased defense budget (and a lot of money that should have gone to raising troop pay) to things like the defense missile array and future weapons systems; replaced all the guard and cooking and most driving and numerous other jobs with civilian contractors paid a minimum of 12 times as much as the soldiers they're replacing; tried to close the largest military and VA hospitals and reduced their funding such that troops are received by atrocious care when we return to America; and put a monetary cap, in peacetime, upon how much can be spent on disabled veterans, an amount that has not increased in wartime. Not to mention ignoring the advice of the top soldiers and intelligence experts on Iraq in opening with less than half the recommended troops and continuing with policies unsuitable for urban combat, which could easily be found in the appropriate military manuals.
'If you're going to accuse those who don't support what the soldiers are doing of not supporting the soldiers, maybe you need to meet more soldiers. We prefer to be supported as people than as political agendas.'
Bruce Willis supports the troops as people. He has a long history of doing that without the politics. (see comments above)
As for troop reduction, troop strenght was 1.4 million at the end of the first gulf war. At the end of the Clinton Admin it was 700 or 800 troops. Clinton called it the 'peace dividend'.
It takes 5 years to increase troops strenght by 20,000 given todays weapons and tactics. It take a lot less time to hire contractors. Military personel are offered as much as $150,000 to re-up. I think less should be farmed out but you have to have the troops to do it with.
Oh here we go again, it is Clinton's fault!!! How original.
First of all, Die Hard is an awesome action movie. I have not seen the last one but they are the movies buy which all other action flicks are judged. Bruce Willis is made for these roles, otherwise he is mediocre.
Going back to troops, I think that only in today's world, with so many spin doctors and so many naive people that believe them (like 'someone' here) you can have this paradoxical situation where the cons accuse the libs for not supporting the troops! So the side that sent the boys to be killed and dismembered for absolutely no good reason is supporting those boys, but the other one that points out to this travesty and wants that to stop is not supporting them?! Nice logic... NOT!
I was responding to a post that claimed Bush has reduced the number of troops by half That is not true. Ijust pointed out why the troops stranght was cut in half. So I should have started with 'here we go again blaming all that is wrong with the world on Bush' I made a true assertion to counter a false one and I get blamed for blaming Clinton? Get real. That just shows how hypocritical the left realy is.
I makes me laugh that an article about Bruce Willis' beliefs about fate turn into some sort of political debate. Give me a break, people.
All political Jihad all the time :-)
WHY DOES EVERYTHING HAVE TO TURN TO POLITICS, ENJOY YOUR DAMN LIVES WITHOUT BRINGING POLITICS INTO IT. Damn cant antyhing be discussed without some liberal bashing bush or 'This Administration', Clinton F-ed up just as much,Clinton screwed up stuff just as much but noone cares because he was riding the tech bubble. Leave your politics to your Left or Right wing blog and talk about the subject at hand. Christ get a life
i personally think bruce willis is a legend. i cant get the first movie out of my head. top actor - yippee ki yay. =)
