Should Danny Take The Money And Run ?

Actor Danny Glover is being asked not to except
money from the Venezuela Government because
of it's views of the Bush administration. But who
isn't critical of the Bush administration. So in my
opinion I'd take the money if only for the good it
would do for the arts. What do you think?


You knew this was coming. Word of Venezuela’s generosity toward actor Danny Glover hit the U.S. Congress and has prompted one Republican to speak out in frustration.

As previously reported, Glover’s upcoming film about a slave uprising in Haiti will receive $18 million in funding from the government of Venezuela, headed by longtime U.S. rival, President Hugo Chavez.
Rep. Connie Mack, R-Fla., on Tuesday urged Glover to refuse to accept the money based on Chavez’s politics and bold animosity toward the Bush administration.

"Danny Glover should refuse to accept Hugo Chavez's tainted movie deal and instead work with legitimate enterprises, investors and financiers who value freedom, treasure our nation and who won't climb into bed with renegade communist dictators," Mack told the Hollywood Reporter.
