More On That Crazy Sean Penn Story
A little birdie sent us an e-mail concerning the story about Sean Penn's recent desire to wade into the wonderful world of SF politics. According to said birdie, Madonna’s ex was watching Fox News (!) and saw this story about our local Mayoral Race. The story, posted above, was an interview with the naked guy and Chicken John (recently seen playing zombie after the debate) about the Mayoral race. Believe it or not, Fox seemed to think the whole thing was kind of amusing
Anyway, rumor has it that Sean saw this, failed to see any humor in it, and made his offer to be the money bags to everyone's favorite hunky-hipster attorney. Again, we don't know if this is true or what the what is with the story. It could be a joke, a crazy rumor, or something Sean and Matt jokingly talked about while drinking some wine and discussing the finer points of Costas Gravas's L'Aveu.
But, as always, if you know something, send those cards and letters.


holy cow awesome.
Totally.
Also, what in God's name is she wearing? Gross.
The time has come and gone to be in the running. Deadline for filing was August 10th. Sean will have to wait until next election to bankroll Gonzalez, supposing the item is true. ("once offered" is the critical bit in the Wonkette post)
This mayoral race is humiliating. No real opposition is already a gash in the ass. The mockish clownery of these bullshit opponents is dumping whiskey and kosher salt on that gash.
Indeed, Brock. It looks like her throat is clenching and her jaw is gnashing down uncomfortably when she hits a stress or consonant. Truly creepy. That's why they buried her up to her face in that wool tube. Severe burn scars? A tag-team hickey from Murdoch and O'Reilly? Thousands of small cuts in a slow, attempted suicide following an hour in the green room with some monotone, hawkish academic? Something happened, and they're hiding it.
Completely amazing. One of my favorite moments has to be when Chicken John refers to "your 'news' program" with air-quotes. Classy. I support any dig at Fox News.
Cool, I thought at first, and then... did she get her terrible jokes from my dad? He's much funnier when telling a bad joke, although I don't think I'd tolerate ones as bad as asking Chicken John about chicken or a nudist about where he puts his wallet. I think she was channeling Milton Berle at his worst moment.
I believe you meant to type Costa-Gavras.
