Just last week at the Cannes Film Festival, actor Peter Fonda called President Obama a “fucking traitor” and now, according to the Telegraph, we discover he’s encouraging his own grandchildren to take up arms against the president due to some upcoming conflict between the haves and have nots.
Does Peter Fonda consider himself a “have” … and what about his inherited-wealth grandchildren?
Secret Service to the white courtesy phone…
“I’m training my grandchildren to use long-range rifles,” said the actor, 71. “For what purpose? Well, I’m not going to say the words ‘Barack Obama’, but …”
“I prefer to not to use the words, ‘let’s stop something’. I prefer to say, ‘let’s start something, let’s start the world’.
He added, enigmatically: “It’s more of a thought process than an actuality, but we are heading for a major conflict between the haves and the have nots. I came here many years ago with a biker movie and we stopped a war. Now, it’s about starting the world.
This is crazy talk and then some, and yet you’re barely hearing about it in the MSM. Fonda’s a famous Lefty, after all and therefore a member of the MSM’s protected class. Media apologists will argue that he’s not as big a star as Mel Gibson and therefore doesn’t deserve the same scrutiny. Okay, fine. But Fonda is a bigger star than some planted moron holding a sign at a Tea Party, is he not?
Anyway, for years I’ve qualified Peter Fonda with the rare “Mighty” before his name. No more.
