I wonder how many of those protesters know he’s a PAID spokesman for Capitol One!!

Looks like Alec might not be an OWS’er after all. haha 

Oh the irony and the hypocrisy! Alec Baldwin is a paid spokesman for Capital One Visa.  Capital One is a big bank who received TARP bailout money.  Alec Baldwin appears on NBCs “30 Rock.” NBC was long owned by General Electric, who also received bailout money.

General Electric is also famous for paying ZERO federal corporate taxes in 2010.

Perhaps Alec Baldwin should quit both his Capital One and NBC gigs in protest and solidarity with the so-called 99%.

I think he handled it well….he doesn’t know enough to comment on it.

Hollywood hypocrisy just has no limits.  Alec Baldwin -a spokesperson for one of the Wall Street banks – gets $300,000 - per episode of ”30 Rock”. Make your maths, occupiers. How much money makes a cameraman or costume lady on his show. Why don’t all the Hollywood lefties stop making millions a movie, maybe tickets to the movie would cost 5$ not 15 $.  

Here’s an actor who went down to OWS, not only to talk to the people down there, but cleaned up a little too!! He and the other people around him seemed to act in a reasonable and friendly manner!!

I wonder how many of these posters  know he donated the money he made from those commercials to charity?
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704396904576227023423795528.html

I like his Capitol One Bank Card commercials.

I think some of his best (funny) work has been on SNL!!

Ka-Blam!!

and yet ANOTHER hollywood moron heard from.

Irrelevant.  However, Capitol One also donated.  Those greedy capitalists!!

I loved when Susan Sarandon (aka, the pope is s Nazi) went down and no one knew who she was!  Truly entertaining. 

That doesn’t make Capital One Bank a wholesome entity. It’s a company whose modus operandi is separating fools from their money–young, ignorant fools mostly. On the side they lobby congress (always successfully) for near usurious interest rates and against relief in bankruptcy for those indebted to banks.

“$1 million to the New York Philharmonic (of which he serves on the
board) and $500,000 to the Roundabout Theatre Company, where he has
performed a few plays in New York. Apparently there’s more where that
came from.”

It warms my heart the New York’s elite will be hearing some great music. I love the PBS series on Prohibition.. if you haven’t seen it…. make the effort. It’s great. I support the Opera House that just reopened here in St. Louis after being closed 30 years. I love The FOX. But let’s not make it out like he donated his money to kids with cancer. I think it’s great that he donated his proceedings form the Capital One ads to a cause I can get behind. But before you guys on the left go a fruty try and keep in mind that he still did ads for a corporation that stand AGAINST everything the OWS crowd is fight against and Baldwin claims he is against. And the money he donated went to entertain the top 1%.

Just a few facts to chew on……

Wasn’t Baldwin one of the pampered Hollywood Blowhards that promised to leave the country if the GOP took control of the House last year?
He’s still here, isn’t he?

So tell me, why should anyone with a brain care about what Alec Baldwin says or does anymore?
He has no credibility. 

glad he didnt donate it to feed the poor, we need music

the balls

Can you say PHOTO-OP?

As long as there’s a narrative to feed Lefty’s Hate, the facts don’t really matter.

Shwetty balls was awesome!!!!!!! On of the kick ball teams on my league uses that for their name! Very funny.

So just to clarify, you don’t think it makes you a hypocrite to try to get people to do business with someone you think is evil and criminal?  Do I have your position correct?

I’m still waiting for him to get his sorry a ss out of the country! There are a few more that promised to leave, they can go with him!

You can always make up your own facts… it works for republicans…

Makes “me” a hypocrite?? I’m not Alec Baldwin and not down there at OWS!! If you’re referring to Baldwin himself… he’s allowed to make money for the commercials he does and it appears he gives the money to charity and if people don’t want to do business with that bank or any others, they have the right not to do it!!

Plus, in that video, Alec mentioned the FED and SEC, not the big banks… so I’m not sure how he feels about them!!

There’s no proof that he went down there just to be filmed!! If that was the plan, wouldn’t the local news be called in??

Ah, he is still getting paid by the bank.

Try again- he could give $1 million of his own money to charity.

Gees, why didn’t the OWS cheer Alec? LOL

I knew who she was and i agree with her that this Pope is a Nazi.

 It’s a company whose modus operandi is separating fools from their money–young, ignorant fools mostly”

Kind of like Russell Simmons and his credit card exploiting blacks and young people?

”
On the radio show, Watkins, who also runs the activist Web site Your Black World, said Simmons isn’t the humanitarian he claims to be, and even loosely compared him to a pimp.

“[Simmons is] saying I’m giving everyone access to the American Dream, but I never really knew the American Dream consisted of having a piece of plastic that puts people further and further in debt,” Watkins said.

 ”But even a pimp that helps — that quote unquote ‘helps’ — a young woman get off the street, he can say, ‘I helped you because you were homeless when I met you and now you’re not.’”

Watkins went on to criticize the fee structure of the prepaid Visa RushCard, which includes an activation fee of $19.95, a daily convenience fee of $1 (capped at $10 a month), $1.95 ATM cash withdrawal fee and more. He concluded that larger, more powerful institutions need to solve the problems that Simmons is claiming to fix for the underbanked communities, such as lack of access to a bank account. (Disclosure: CreditCards.com offers the RushCard).

He’s a JOB CREATOR. We all know how you folks love those. His big paycheque is trickling down to all the other support staff who work for the show. And all of his dollars are creating even more jobs at restaurants and dry cleaners and so many other places. All that and he’s not trying to drive the country into the ditch. What a great guy!

Ya but they’re too stupid to know that no one will buy it. Oh…wait. They will and they do. You betcha!

Most. How many know that you’re a tool, paid to post GOP talking points on Mediaite?

You should I be receiving my checks from?  I need to make a call!

Hay… where can I get that job???

But then you watch his movies. lol

Schwetty Balls is soon to be a flavor of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream.  The procedes will be donated to a charity for men suffering from schwetty balls.  It’s true, except for the last part.

A Nazi reference! Drink!

Don’t misunderstand me. I agree with you about these people. These rich lefties who try to rationalize their vast wealth while espousing leftist economics are a joke.

Money he will use as a deduction in his IRS bill he made working in a Capitalist, free-market society?  

Ka-Boom!!

Not only is he a good liberal, he probably should have been nominated for “Father of the Year” for the nice little rant against his daughter a couple years ago…He, just like the majority of the OWS morons are nothing more than a bunch of America hating attention whores.  Who cares what any of them think.  I appears you libs are scared sh*tless about the upcoming election.  It is a good thing the lame stream media is in the tank for Obama.  I think “we the people” have had enough of Obama and the Marxist policies he has forced down our throat.

It’s always amusing to see the Socialist Aristocracy slum it with the unwashed masses, making sure they still support a system that keeps them rich and the plebs poor.

Hey, the illegals could have used that money!!

Not if it means sharing the money he makes with the bottom-feeders. His Liberalism extends only as far as finding good IRS deductions!

Wait, that’s capitalism, isn’t it….?

And it’s what keeps Liberals in office. Spinning the facts is “mothers-milk” to Liberals!

So, showing up was not a gimmick to get his mug recognized in a political arena that could be used in a mayoral election? Funny, sure looks like it to me?

He’s a very talented actor, that’s given but, Obimbo can sure read a telepromter extremely well, and he, is in no way a leader, so one does not necessarily lend the necessary talent to the other, does it?  

Will the Left ever wake up?…nope…lol

I am waiting for the first liberal tv, movie, music star to go down to these Fruitcake Marches and get blasted and then come out and say, “I am sorry to say it, but these people are complete assholes.”

Once that happens, the whole movement of liberalosers will collapse faster than Joe Biden’s hairdo.

“Will the Left ever wake up?”

You can’t wake up when you live 24/7 in a bubble made of socialist pap and Marxist boilerplate.

“He has no credibility.”

Which liberal does? Can you name one? I can’t.

Lol!! You can’t “Ka-Boom” your own comment… someone else has to!!

Ka-Blam!!

He need a ass kickin

Just to be clear, in liking your comment I am not advocating violence towards Baldwin, I just love your character. 

Alex! Alex!
You can’t even get through a piece, in which a liberal praises capitalism while conversing with a group that has been vocal in its condemnation of capitalism, without a puerile joke prompted by a mumbled reference to a brother? “Harpo”?!?
Alex! Shame on you.

The Hollywood crowd what a hoot, a gathering of total imbeciles. I’ll do anything to get my picture taken especially when you’re a down an out old actress… Susan frump,ummm?.

Libertarians and Liberals UNITE!!

Do we see and hear Capitalism alive and well with Baldwin? Lets say he has strange bed fellows when it suits him, maybe huh?

Capital one is for losers who have no credit or poor credit.  That extra risk costs money. This is how the world works people like to get paid when working.  Work more pay more.  The banks have to work harder when comes to poor or no credit, they statically have higher failure rates.

Tatboy knocks it out of the park.  reality bites for liberals.

Don’t be a dick.

nothing recent.  If you lived back when and watched you would think the last 25 years is mostly crap.

Man they screwed the pooch with that hire!  I think she’s done more for the left than the right simply from lying and being wrong all the time.

call in the cameras ?  Are you kidding there are rows of them set up constantly.  Lib media wouldn’t miss 1 second of the dream scenerio

Dont U think Alex Balwin has some anger issues. Maybe he should consider getting into a group for his problem. Its seem he can be a really nice guy if everything is going his way.But if another opinion gets in his road he shows his angry. Thats a pretty BIG EGO U have Alex.

Thank you . The AK don’t hurt nobody . He a pussycat .

Thank you . The AK don’t hurt nobody . He a pussycat .

Next thing you know we’ll have Chocolate Salty Balls Ice Cream?

Spin young mindless idiot, spin away.

This is like Jeffrey Dahmer telling you to mind your table manners.

Just stop, you’re embarassing yourself. Seriously, go to bed, stupid.

I prefer his role as the Canteen Boy’s scout leader. He and Adam Sandler were brilliant.

Oh yeah? Well GO STEELERS!!!!

American Nazi Party: “Occupy Wall Street Fervor Has Been Sweeping The Land Like a Breath of Cleansing Air!”…

Wow, how surprising that you would be privy to that information. Big follower of theirs are you?

Don’t worry about that idiot Michelle. She doesn’t know her ass from a whole in the ground. She is truly one of the big jokes on here. have a good laugh.

You can’t even define what the difference is between Marxism and Socialism.

Exactly, He supports capitalism as he said. Are we just guessing that he thinks Capital One is evil and criminal or does that fall under the ridiculous meme that all corporations must be evil and criminal if you’re liberal?

Are you from Indiana? I knew some illiterates from there at one time?

Who says the OWS crowd is against banks in general or that Baldwin is? Am I misunderstanding your point?

anyone with a tv knows that.. duh.. so what?   how ignorant  and oh look Michelle’s here for a change!  wow!

one of the biggest losers on the “internets” !

he’s an actor and acts for a living..

now let’s get back to the pertinent question Michelle, do you weigh 400 lbs and do you have an auto-toilet built into that chair of yours so you never have to leave your pc screen and turn away from this site?   just who keeps that little frig next to your desk stocked for you so you never have to move from here?

come on Michelle, fill us in…

Are you a bigot? Well, you already answered that for everybody.

Capital One is a big bank with some high interest rate cards. It was also a recipient of billions of TARP money. They’re currently trying to buy ING, which will make them the 5th largest depository in the US. They’re also trying to buy HSBC’s credit card business, which will make it the 4th largest credit card issuer.

If Big Banks are the problem, Capital One is one of them. How can its spokesman be a friend of OWS?

Do you have a point, or just the childishness?

Oh, they certainly do that. But it isn’t all they do. Face it, if your history is that you’re a fool (or you have no history), you’re going to pay through the nose for credit because you’re a risk to lend to.

OWS says that.

#OWS is fighting back against the corrosive power of major banks
and multinational corporations over the democratic process, and the role
of Wall Street in creating an economic collapse that has caused the
greatest recession in generations.

http://tinyurl.com/42o3veb

For what? You need someone to borrow money from?

He’s not paying the crew, genius.

Well,if Baldwin truly believed in the OWS cause, he would sever his ties with Capital One immediately. It doesn’t matter if he gives his fee to charity. He is still encouraging people to patronize this “evil” bank. The truth is Baldwin sells himself to the highest bidder, no matter who that bidder is. The OWS is just a good soundbite for him.

ostracario, you say Baldwin’s “big paycheque is trickling down to all the other support staff who work for the show”. In truth, the support staff don’t make all that much. Sure, the success of the show keeps them employed, but if Baldwin would cut his $300,000 per episode down to, say, $50,000, think of how much more money would be available to trickle down! He could even write it into his contract! Give $250,000 of his salary away EVERY WEEK! After all, why does anyone need more than $50,000 per week?

This said by the ass that doesn’t know the difference between ‘hole’ and ‘whole’. You sir, just proved YOU are one of the big jokes on here!

Stinger. ;)

Coming from someone who doesn’t know the difference between a whole and hole that’s pretty funny.

I went down there and took a tour and donated some of my old things for the effort.  

Nobody wants your crap , lady .

“…from a whole in the ground…”

your and idyot .

Capital One Bank- “What’s in Your Brain?”

Height of Hypocrisy Mr. Baldwin.

How is it that only those on the Left get away with this type of double speak garbage?

” the corrosive power of major banks
and multinational corporations over the democratic process”

Which is far different than, “all banks are evil and we want to get rid of them.”

There is overly simplistic stupidity in the “Hey look they have iphones and they hate corporations”  or “Hey look Baldwin’s a liberal but he does ads for Capital one, an evil bank” 

No is FORCED to use any credit card or bank. You DO have a choice. If you’re unfortunate to live in a non-right to work state, you WILL be force to join the union of your employment…some choice.

Limbaugh for 1

Limbaugh for 1

Michelle said it dumba$$

Correct
Why do they.
I’snt that why banks charge such high fees, and are still having problems?

Study shows U.S. bank CEO pay dwarfs rest of world

and hes donating all the money to charity

Isn’t donating all the money enough?
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704396904576227023423795528.html

If you read the article, you would see that he donated 1.5M in the last week.

Move to another country since your leader is EVIL and CRIMINAL.

When did Alec Baldwin get back to America? Did he not leave America when G.W. Bush got re-elected in 2008, as he repeatedly vowed he would do?

Sorry, Bush got re-elected in 2004. My bad!

I for one am not a fan of this uber liberal loon. On the other hand this video surprised me. Mr. Baldwin was calm and quite honest about his knowledge on the feds. I wonder if the ear piece he was wearing was somehow feeding him the words coming out of his usually vulgar and obscene mouth. If not then I was shocked and scary to say impressed that he wasn’t ranting like usual. Must of been the ear piece!

yeah thats what the Germans should have done when hitler and the nazis took over Germany.Trying to stop flawed corrupt policies before they get too big is definitely the worst option…

In Ubeki-beki-beki-beki-stan-stan, there is a village missing it’s idiot….and his name is Alec Baldwin.
MEDIAITE!!!!!……I don’t care what this Hollyward (sic) dickwad says or does……He and Christian-hater, Suzy Sarandon need to get a room and the thought of that just sends shivers up my spine….

aren’t you missing the point that he is using his fame to attract more customers to the very banks that they are protesting against?  He is still making Capital One money and they are still using that money to manipulate congress.

Feel better about his charity work now?

You got to try to control your fear. 

You’re in over your head.

By that token, do you support the philanthropy by Koch Industries through their $20 million donation to the ACLU?

Alec  is a democratic fraud … he would kill you if you touched his money
