I posted this to our website because I was asked to post it by a member of our class, and because there are honest, patriotic, intents in this speech. We are members of a country that has many points of view and members of both sides of any argument in our country accuse the other side of being closed minded. As you read this speech, believe what you will, and respond if you wish. For myself, I will say that I think Tim is making many mistakes, but he is making them for honest reasons.
I only wish that Tim could see that the mistakes he believes are being made by our representatives in government are also being made by honest people with honorable intentions. Intentions and directions I happen to agree with.
Transcript of the speech given by actor Tim Robbins to the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., on April 15, 2003.
Tim Robbins starts speaking.
Thank you. And thanks for the invitation. I had originally been asked here to talk about the war and our current political situation, but I have instead chosen to hijack this opportunity and talk about baseball and show business. Just kidding. Sort of.
Read the complete speech.
