4. Yes. He is a known and long-avowed liberal.

And yes, he plays the "repuke" in WW.

7. Alda is also a proud feminist. Like all liberals should be.

Sometimes, I still just want to make out with him.

18. Yes, he's very much a liberal. He's one of my favorite actors too

not to mention he still makes my heart go pitty pat... there's just something about an intelligent liberal man who has a sense of humor. B-)

8. I'm guessing in real life he's either Dem or Independent

In September 2003, Dan Kammen was interviewed by Alan Alda for a Scientific American episode on "Future Cars." You can now view the interview on the web!Watch the video "Why cars must be green."

12. He is a Democrat...

He was on hardball, talking about his roll, he was very upset with the admimnistration. Showed him almost in tears with the national debt being so high. Real Dem!

21. How do you know?

I mean, if he was a participant here, I sincerely doubt his nick would be something like "Hawkeye Alda". ;-)

I have a feeling wqe have more than a few people of note here, hiding behind nicks.

24. I suppose that's possible

But I suspect he's too busy to be posting much.

Maybe he got flamed as a newbie for playing devil's advocate about something and never came back. :shrug:

I have a book on non-sexist books for children, and he wrote the introduction.

thing he is articulate and thinks fast on his feet!

22. Supposedly, he's the fastest..

...kisser on the planet.

I once saw him on Letterman and he kissed a woman's hand something like 180 times in a minute. I could be wrong about the tally but it was a lot.

34. He's liberal and a realy good actor

He makes you believe that he believes what he's saying better than the real politicians.

What's amusing is that in real life he's a liberal Democrat.
