My Blood is Boiling!

Tonight I found out that Tom Hanks made some off-handed comment last week about how "Mormons were Un-American" because the Church supported Prop. 8. So tonight I spent a few minutes typing a little rebuttal to Mr. Hanks and posted it on the "Variety" website. I am sure he will never see it, but at least I felt better! And to let everyone know, not one person that left comments were in support of Mr. Hanks comments! :) Ok, I am getting off my milk-crate for now!!

Mr. Hanks:

My family has lived in this country before it was a country. I have had at least one of my ancestors, and now cousins, fight in every war this country has been engaged in - all the way from the Revolutionary War to the current war happening in Iraq. I am American - yes, a flag waving American!! I am also LDS (aka Mormon). I think you would be better off making movies than spouting your idiot comments to the press about how "Mormons are Un-American". You have no clue. There were plenty of Catholics, Baptists, and other folks who do not want to see the California Constitution be changed because women want to marry women and men want to marry men. I would strongly suggest you keep to memorized scripts, because when you speak and think for yourself it is making you look like a fool!!!! I for one will not be seeing any films that you are involved with (in front or behind the camera) and the ones that I do own will be in the trash by the time I go to bed tonight.

I was so mad when I heard he said that because I loved him and there was never a movie by him i DIDN'T like. But I guess it proves that there are a lot of idiots out there, which I already knew! haha
