MSNBC Countdown w/ KEITH OLBERMANN - 21 June 2010:

REDFORD: "All the truth that's coming out now about this spill I think is good - I'm sad that it took this kind of disaster that is not over yet to get us there - but what I'm interested in is connecting the dots historically. If we had not believed the propaganda coming out from these people, we would have realized that there have been many disasters. When they were saying 'no, we're safe, we got it all figured out, don't worry about it,' and we bought that song, had we been aware of the dots prior, we would have said 'well, wait a minute, what about the BP disaster in Texas, what about Exxon Valdez, what about Santa Barbara in 1969, what about Texaco Chevron in the Amazon, what about Niger, what about Brittany, and so forth?'

So there have been disasters. They're not telling the truth. We weren't focused on it. Why? Because of the collusion between government, Congress and the oil companies. It's time to break that up and it better be done quick."

2. Redford laid some licks on Mitch McConnell...LOL
It's too bad he couldn't really vent because he was in front of the camera.
