Wow...was he tried in Ireland or here? That is so weird that MADD is not more vocal about it.
'Reckless' driving as the above article suggests, is not the same thing as drunk driving though.
i am sure he was in fact drunk.... I BET that they pleaded it down to recklessness
Sorry, my grandmother had an emergency and I had to run over to her house for a while....
I only said he was driving drunk b/c I am pretty sure that it was drunk driving and he was able to plead it down. We were living in the UK at the time and my dad is in AA and he was pretty annoyed that if it wasn't a celebrity they'd be rotting in jail. But he could have been mistaken.

Yes. Tim Robbins, Susan Sarandon, Roman Polanski, Woody Allen, Michael Moore, Tom Cruise, and Bradgelina. They are all on my list for obvious reasons.

We need to also make a distinction b/w personal life and politics, I think.

Posted by nrthshgrl On the other hand, I wouldn't see the movie "Powder" in the theaters because the writer/director is a convicted child molester (12 year old boy).
That was the only movie I could think of that I had boycotted purposefully.

I will not see Michael Moore movies...
not because of his personal life or even his politics...But because of his movies themselves

I think it affects my opinion somewhat. I think it also depends on the movie. For instance I really hate Tom Cruise. I've always hated hin though, but there are movies of his that I love. I just think it depends.

YES! I refuse to watch Mr. & Mrs. Smith. I also won't listen to Marc Anthony and/or Jennifer Lopez. I have a huge problem with cheaters/perceived cheaters. I won't support them!

Why Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins? I am drawing a blank here....
Everyone on her list (except for the last two idiots) seem to be independents...liberals. I'm guessing she's not.

I am not a liberal (I can't see how this matters regarding this thread) but here are my reasons:
Woody Allen - b/c married his daughter and cheated on his wife with is daughter. This is disgusting to me.
Roman Polanski - ran away to France to avoid being convicted of child molestation
Brad Pitt, Angelina joile - Infidelity
Tom Cruise -b/c of what he said about PPD & people who take antidepressants. What he said about Brooke Shields ****** me off.
Michael Moore - I feel he is a liar and his movies just plain stink!
Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon - I don't agree with anyone using their celebrity status to promote a political agenda. However, Shawshank Redeption and Bull Durham are great movies. I just won't see any of their new ones.
Keep in mind, these are just my opinions. I thought that independents/liberals want other people to express their opinions, at least that is what I hear. If I choose not to hand over my money to someone because of their personal lives or political beliefs, isn't that my decision?

I agree! Besides, no one knows what really happened except the people involved.
