Connery long ago came out as very anti-guns and anti-Second Amendment. A very wealthy, entertaining actor, but very left wing. Comes from Ireland, you know, so what would you expect from an actor from Ireland? L.W.

Don't know about Connery's politics, but I like his movies . . . same for Liam Neeson . . . I'm pretty sure he is a liberal, but I like his movies. Same for Matt Damon (Bourne series) and Tom Hanks.

I prefer "him" on SNL Jeopardy. (Although he was great in "Red October".)

I'm wondering how either group will react to your term "close".

He is THE James Bond, but he has also made some...uh...questionable career choices.
Zardoz comes to mind.
Sean Connery as Zed, wearing what the UK's Channel 4 described as "a red nappy, knee-high leather boots, pony tail and Zapata moustache."

Liked him in a lot of films. Never heard he was an anti, 'specially since his gun play earned him a living. Some of my favorites: The Longest Day All the Bond films The Hill Murder on the Orient Express Robin Hood A Bridge Too Far Indiana Jones The Untouchables Highlander Hunt For Red October Finding Forrester The Rock The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

Laffin. When I fuged up, I got a lot more than that. I had it coming. A clean bitch slap made me rethink my moves.
Nowadays it's 5 to 10, but meals are on the house.
@jameslavish If you work 40 hrs/wk: at 5% inflation and after 5 years, you need a 28% pay raise or to work 44 more hours (*one full extra week* per month+) to make up the difference. This is inflation
