I Had No Idea Jon Voight Rode the Crazy Train!

Who knew? I'd always pegged Voight as a grumpier version of Christopher Walken, which is to say, harmlessly batty. Turns out, he's kind of evil. And paranoid, or so an op-ed piece he wrote for The Washington Times suggests. Here's a taste:

We, as parents, are well aware of the importance of our teachers who teach and program our children. We also know how important it is for our children to play with good-thinking children growing up.

What the hell is a good-thinking child? And can I find the school where teachers program children, cause I'd like to program mine to stop watching Elmo. It could also come in handy, later, when I could get them to program him into being the shortstop for the Boston Red Sox.

Here's some more crazy:

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.

The Democrats have targeted young people, knowing how easy it is to bring forth whatever is needed to program their minds. I know this process well.

Those subliminal messages must be working if Voight thinks he's a God-like figure. I just thought he was handsome and well-spoken. And there he goes again with the mind-control. What's up, Voight? You've been watching too much "X-Files," old man. Step away from the batshit, grandpa.

Hmph. I don't think I'm going to watch Anaconda anymore. Nah -- who am I kidding? Not even a shit-stirring, Academy-Award winning wingnut clown could keep me away from Anaconda. He strangled Kari Wuhr to death with his thighs! What an awesome old coot!
