Tell 'em how it is, Harrison!
I though Harrison Ford was OK, but I can see now that he is just another elite Hollywood hyprocrite just like the rest of them.
I seriously doubt his small private plane does as much damage to the environment as Nancy Pelosi's government owned jet.
I remember when everyone was all up in arms about the planes flying Nancy Pelosi around but it's funny how those same people are saying NOTHING about all the jet flying Sarah Palin is doing!
Now, people want to go after Harrison Ford. Give me a break!
Bet not a one of you ever takes a plane anywhere, right?
Is there something wrong with the airplanes and what they're doing to our atmosphere? Probably, but every day, we have jets and other aircraft dumping fuel while in flight. I would think THIS would be a much bigger issue!
I always did love Harrison Ford...great come backs, Harrison!!
