She is too intelligent to be a part of this farce.  I've loved Natalie Portman since she was in "The Professional".  I always knew she had talent, but it seems that her education has created just another liberal, elitist who is confused and has lost their way.  It is a shame that Hollywood seems to have lost touch with reality.  Since Ms. Portman clearly hasn't been paying attention - the economy is in the tank.  If she were objective she would see a man whose ego outweighs what is best for this country.  His failed policies are a like an arrow to change course, but his belief that we should redistribute wealth, rather then encourage people to be the better part of themselves, trumps all.  We used to be a country that was proud to work hard and now we are a country that is proud to support those that don't work at all.  What kind of message is that?  <br>Not to mention Obama's direct and flagrant attack on Israel - not once, but twice.  Did she miss Netanyahu's response to Obama after he sold Israel out?  I'm not Jewish, but I was saddened by what I saw.  However I was impressed at Netanyahu's grace and graciousness while he advocated for his country.  That is what a statesman looks like - proud, dignified, courageous, based in reality - not in philosophy. <br>Children won't be asking their parents who they are voting for because they will be wondering where dinner is or why they have to share a bed with their cousins because they had to move in with a family member. $46M people live below poverty in this country Ms. Portman and the best that Obama can say is spend more on green energy and unions?  Didn't we just do that?  Where did the money go?  Oh yeah - it went to teacher’s pensions and right back to the Democratic Party by way of the unions. Thanks to the Reinvestment Act people are in over their heads and losing everything.  Thanks to Obama's outrageous spending (including $10M in vacations paid for by the tax payers) and refusal to change course - we have a 9% unemployment rate that continues to grow. I love that no one from Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae is in prison.  I love that Eric Holder is selling guns to the Mexican Drug Cartel and now we have two dead soldiers, but certainly the dinner discussion is whom our parents are voting for.  Ms. Portman - it's time to grow up!<br></p>Nicholle MoodyFri, 16 Sep 2011 20:53:01 -0000http://washingtonindependent.com/14152/natalie-portman-have-the-talk-for-obama#comment-3251554<p>No need to dis Susan. She's on the right side, also.</p>Bruce SchneiderThu, 23 Oct 2008 10:49:03 -0000
