Cusack: And for real Green why the hell is it John Cusack bringing this shit up,
Usually I disdain when actors use their celebrity as an opus to blather about their political leanings but Cusack is doing what I have not heard ANY serious media outlet do and that is to ask what should be some fairly obvious questions. The gild is off the rose, he's been President for 4 years and I can't argue with any of the points made in this interview. You mention that you're not sure who you are going to vote for and I can honestly say that I'm not either.I always thought the duty of a citizen, and even more so as a journalist, had greatly to do with the idea that intellectual honesty was much more important than political loyalty.
-Here, here. If this rings true, Obama is screwed. Not because his former fan base will be jumping ship, but I don't think they'll set out to sail at all. Obama will not get the turnout he did in '08. Should be close.
I haven't watched Charlie in years but I used to really enjoy his style. I recall seeing a Hunter S. Thompson interview with Charlie Rose and it was great. You could tell there was a friendship there and a mutual respect which you don't always find in interviews.
