South Park boys join the Stop the Vote Campaign

(via Drudge)

Well, not officially, but they've echoed similar sentiments. And guess who is pissed off about it? Everyone's favorite Hollywood miscreant, Sean Penn. Sean must still be bitter about that whole "I Married Madonna and all I got was this lousy Syphilis" incident, because he hasn't shut his whiny yap in quite some time.

From an open letter from Penn to South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, Penn blathers:

I do mind when anybody who doesn't have a child, doesn't have a child at war, or isn't or won't be in harm's way themselves, is encouraging that there's "no shame in not voting" "if you don't know what you're talking about" (Mr. Stone) without mentioning the shame of not knowing what your talking about, and encouraging people to know. You guys are talented young guys but alas, primarily young guys. It's all well to joke about me or whomever you choose. Not so well, to encourage irresponsibility that will ultimately lead to the disembowelment, mutilation, exploitation, and death of innocent people throughout the world. The vote matters to them. No one's ignorance, indcluding (sic) a couple of hip cross-dressers, is an excuse.

All best, and a sincere fuck you, Sean Penn

Sean is all bent out of shape because Parker & Stone took a well-deserved shot at P. Diddy's horse-shit "vote or die" campaign.

Stone complains, "I think just saying 'Vote or Die' is a serious danger to democracy. If you don't know what you're talking about, there's no shame in not voting.

"They say if you don't vote, you can't [bleep]. But you can vote all you want. This is America."

Parker adds, "Hey, 19-year-old who doesn't know anything -- you choose!"

This is ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. These get-out-the-vote campaigns are self-aggrandizing leftist bullshit and should be mocked, ridiculed, and most importantly, squashed.

But, because Sean Penn went on a first-class field trip to Iraq last Christmas, he is the only one qualified to interject opinion into the realm of political discussion.

P.S. Take this as a personal invitation from me to you (you can ask Dennis Miller along for the ride as well) to escort you on a trip, which I took last Christmas. We'll fly to Amman, Jordan and I'll ride with you in a (?) 12 hours through the Sunni Triangle into Fallujah and Baghdad and I'll show you around. When we return, make all the fun you want.

Thanks for the morality lesson, Sean. I'm sure the boys appreciate it. Incidentally, I'm planning on seeing Team America: World Police. I'm pretty sure it's going to kick ass.
