Penn: Fascist President?

Fox News

Hollywood star Sean Penn is suggesting that President Bush may bring fascism to the U.S. Promoting his new film based on the life of all-powerful Louisiana Governor Huey Long, Penn told Larry King that the film relates to a political figure today, saying "Huey Long said something very interesting. It was 'fascism will come to America, but likely under another name, perhaps anti-fascism.'"

Penn went on to call the president and Donald Rumsfeld "party clowns" who have done "enormous damage" to mankind, accusing them of beating the war drum to, "drown out the reality of what's really happening."

Penn insisted that, "No Democrat that doesn't have a plan to get our troops out of Iraq should be voted for," adding that Mr. Bush has "devastated our democracy."
