OlderJon Voight: Barack Obama Will Weaken America
Jon Voight has taken a very public stance for the Republican nominee for President, Sen. John McCain. The 69-year-old actor had some very strong words for Sen. Barack Obama and shared them with The Washington Times:
“Sen. Barack Obama has grown up with the teaching of very angry, militant white and black people: the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakhan, William Ayers and Rev. Michael Pfleger. We cannot say we are not affected by teachers who are militant and angry. We know too well that we become like them, and Mr. Obama will run this country in their mindset.
“The Democratic Party, in its quest for power, has managed a propaganda campaign with subliminal messages, creating a God-like figure in a man who falls short in every way. It seems to me that if Mr. Obama wins the presidential election, then Messrs. Farrakhan, Wright, Ayers and Pfleger will gain power for their need to demoralize this country and help create a socialist America.
“And while a misleading portrait of Mr. Obama is being perpetrated by a media controlled by the Democrats, the Obama camp has sent out people to attack the greatness of Sen. John McCain, whose suffering and courage in a Hanoi prison camp is an American legend… If, God forbid, we live to see Mr. Obama president, we will live through a socialist era that America has not seen before, and our country will be weakened in every way.”

And he still doesn’t get why his daughter won’t have anything to do with him? Please, someone knock him down.
I don’t really follow American politics, ’cause I couldn’t care less, but I do know Obama is the better choice out of the other candidates.
Of Voight ever wants to see his grandchildren, he better shut his mouth and never open it again!
So, the democratic mutual admiration society, i.e. his highness, Barack Hussein Obama and his democratic cronies met behind closed doors … and, then upon leaving the meeting, graced us with glowing reviews of Obama’s humility and his inevitability to win in November. Then, for the umpteenth time, Obama told us how his 6 countries in 9 days photo op, proved how he is now a qualified expert in foreign policy. Then, he refused to acknowledge that the surge worked. Yes … I would call Obama a presumptuous arrogant empty suit, who is being packaged and agressively marketed to the American people. What a grand deception. I urge all Americans … if you really love this country, and you don’t want to see it turn into a third world country … make sure you … and everyone you know, vote for Senator John McCain in November!!!
Do you enjoy your freedoms? Thank you Jon Voight, for speaking out on the truths of what Obama is all about. If you like being able to choose your own doctor; or to start your own business; or to work hard and make a decent living without being severely taxed, you cannot support Obama. Remember those words: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? Obama doesn’t.
what a wanker!!
with mccain you vote to have the same republican “masterminds” that have ruled behind bush and ran the country to ground. go for it if you are stupid enough. as an outsider i´d say try something different and see if there is any hope for your country still… you guys seem to be a step away from totalitarism and soma-pills. scarey as f***k!
The only thing shocking about his comment is that they are true and people want to write them off as the ramblings of an Ol’ Hollywood actor. What Voit is trying to say is we know Baracks history, we know what he has written, what he has said, who he has associated himself with and what he has heard in his church from a radical clack liberation hack making money of the hate sermons to the black community. Despite all that there is this following of Pied Piper types that just can’t see past the Suit and empty rhetoric. You guy’s want Barack and the type country he represents? Then just go to Canada, France, England etc.. If you want some remnant of America to remain then we have no choice McCain. Yes a vote for McCain simply put is a vote against Barack Hussein Obama.
Can any BHO supporter explain why when in Germany he went to the gym instead of visiting troops?
Now I understand why Angelina doesnt speed to her dad for years he is snake!
i agree. this country will fall as Barack Obama as president.
why does he want to be president if he doesn’t even put it hand on his heart, and pledges his allegiance to some other country!!!! this is just crap!

Very good Orchid ! Maybe you’re wasting your time here. I don’t know how old you are, but don’t immerse yourself blogging. Go and take the LSAT. You’d be better off !
This is WHY Angeline will have NOTHING to do with him.
She does not want his crazy thinking to influence her kids.
When is the last time you have seen Jon Voight in any big movie project.. RIGHT.. he needs something to get people to even notice him now and spreading propangda is it.

Actually, I think he is very smart. He makes speeches that make people faint or get goosbumps. Then he goes home and celebrates the fact that ‘these idiots out there are eating out of my hand.’
I haven’t read his books, but I understand he wrote that his father was a goatherd? I hear that that is not true. I don’t know if it’s true or not. If not, why did he lie about his father???
Well said Jon. I hope many others in hollywood will follow suit and speak out about what they believe. He shows great courage and conviction.
you better listen to the message! try using the microscopic pea brain of yours for a change! do you really want obama binladen running your country? god would really curse this country then! think about it! it’s your life and future generations lives at stake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Right on Mr Voight. to all of those non believing mis-led by the media obama supporters. You are blind. by his own admission he hates white people there is no proof he is a citizen, his wife hates America. YOU ARE STUPID!
Oh my Lord, how could you choose between 2 evils?
Let Obama rules now, so he won’t come back even stronger in 2012 when McCain screw up as the president. Let Obama try to run this country and people will see how he is just all talk/lies.
McCain is incompetent and lack integrity. If you
elect him, his failures as president will only give more excuses to the like of Obama/Hillary for more power in 2012…
The problem with Obama is that not only is he incompetent for good, but also very capable for gathering personal power. So let U.S. people see how he screws up as president while U.S. is still not as desperate.
If U.S. let Obama show up while U.S. is more desperate, more people will be willing to welcome a dictatorship of some sort. I m not sure if Obama will take that position if we hand it to him, but don’t test him. I have very little faith in Obama’s character either.
U.S. has accumulated so much debts and a people of entitlements… Only a long and painful recession can force a change in this country and no presidents can change that. This is cause and effect. U.S. just can’t expect to run away the consequences from what she has done in the last few decades… Not under the like of Obama or McCain…
I’m relieved to know that there are some people that agree Obama will ruin this nation. Kudos to Voight for not jumping on Hollywood’s liberal bandwagon.
Its about time the truth is address. America’s have been walking around like blind idiots buying into Barack. This man has no experience to run our country and HURRAY FOR JON VOIGHT for using FREEDOM of SPEECH!! Vote for McCain for the right change and a man who knows what to do.
America will not be the same if B.O. is in office and I don’t mean better I mean for worse. People need to open there eyes and get out of fantasy land. Look who the man associates himself with and he does not like America. BO will weaken America and who will be left to blame or better yet what will the other countries who hate America do? Will they try to overthrow a weaken America? Will they rejoice at our demise? of course they will. They are laughing now and hoping we will vote for B.O.
THANK U JON VOIGHT for your brave stance!!
thats his opinion,, then why are u crying? if you dont like McCain vote, heres an ice cream and go,, you little………
This actor has shown how unstable he is for years and he just keeps on going. This type of false rhetoric is pathetic. It ignores the damage the previous administration has done to weaken our country and families and pretends that somehow “every” decision the current administrations is “disastrous.” This is the type of absolute language is used by children…and they respond to it too. What planet is this guy on? He claims to know what Obama thinks. He calls him a prophet? And people clapped! Another nut job on the wrong side of reason. Forget the fact that he is wrong about everything, but he thinks somehow the past 8 years was ok and the last 100+ days have done all the harm? Coo coo!
I FIND THAT THIS VOIGHT IS UNGRATEFUL TO THE JEWISH FOLKS WHO HAVE GIVEN HIM WORK ALL THIS YEARS. HIS STRONG STANCE AGAINST OBAMA SAYS THAT HE IS READY TO CLAIM, JEWISH HAVE GROWN UP WITH ANGER ABOUT THE HOLOCAUST, THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING GOOD FOR AMERICA
- I think that this Guy sees Mr President Barack Obama like a little slave, who is doomed to do the impossible or the USA but like his own puppet. V’s Words are extremely offensive, anti-progress, anti-youth, anti-peace and no one can build anything with it, even the Republicans
- Give whoever spoke this speech a Award for satanic works. He is in his right to speak freely. The Victory here, is to get now the knowledge that this man is…this way anyway. As true as the Blood of Jesus Christ have been shed for me, I curse the spirit in this speech from its source and cancel it now in the name of Jesus Christ.
Personally, I will take my distance from a person like this Mr Voight for life. No regret to throw away all the movies he is in it.
By the way, I have dated some of you, Academy Awarded Actors, but I would rather trust my own jugement, sell Eiffel Towers like the First immigrant in France, argue with my bank to pay my bills than marry one of you. Being a Husband Mr Voight is easier than being a President of The USA in 2009.
