I am an orthodox Christian and was THRILLED by his comments... Sad that pastors everywhere (across other religions too, but as a Christian I will only speak for my own I guess) aren't pasting his exact words - with no qualifiers - on their blogs. I wish he didn't have to say it that way, but he does... Therefore I was thankful. If I can find his email address I'm going to tell him I think he's a hero and his words are much closer to Jesus' than many of us evangelicals. Thanks for having the quote up.

I know it took some time, but I found it very moving and appropriate. On the other hand, I really didn't like the way they did the "In Memoriam" segment, which is always one of my favorites. Once they got into the montage they should have left the stage and focused on those who have passed. Unfortunately I didn't get to see Lance Black's acceptance speech live. It was classy and compelling. I really liked the way they honored each of the nominees in the lead actor and actress categories, with a former recipient saluting each.

I loved the way Penn let us know about the wingnut hate mongers who where outside with their little signs saying, everyone in hollywood were going to hell. Well if thats the case, I'll be in good company. Both Blacks and Penns speeches were right on point.

Robert Di Nero should have won best supporting just for pealing an egg. and if Angelina Jolie deserved an Oscar for Girl Interrupted, Lisa Bone should have won an Oscar for Angel Heart. (Bonet's chicken dance is iconic . . . hope it wasn't a real chicken [PETA?]) For Angel Heart:

Mickey Rourke should have won best actor.

Robert Di Nero should have won best supporting just for pealing an egg.

He gave the most heart-felt, all-embracing acceptance speech. It wasn't just for the audience there, it was truly for all of us listening. I'm not gay, but, let's get with the program. That would be the Constitution . . . all men [women] are created equal and have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." That equal right includes the right to marry the person of your choice. Marriage, after all, is not only a religious institution, an but a governmental institution, but as a religious institution, it is one from which we are not bound. I am free to reject it. If my gay bretheren choose to embrace it, why should my right to marry be any different than theirs? Lance Black rocks!

For some reason he feels that it wasn't enough that a wealthy actor took weeks out of his life to spend it in the putrid sewage infested waters of New Orleans saving peoples lives. Apparently he feels he had to also do so without any protection whatsoever from the armed looters and criminals roaming the area, even though everyone else had protection.
