The only issue I see, is Affleck is liked by many, him omitting his family history goes over with those like urbanlife.

I bet if Ted Nugent did this, people would be out in full force demanding his guns......

Sure talking about his Occultist family was even better........guess not when you look you get this......http://thepublicslate.com/2015/04/be...ous-occultist/

Looks like he wants to hide it all!

Ben! My ancestors were starved out of Ireland. But today's (and even Yesterday's) Brits have nothing to do with it! Get over yourself!
TY. That was the word I was looking for, it was on the tip of my dafty tongue

They did an episode on this on " The Office." Ben Affleck is Andy Bernard.

Well going thru the thread you seem to be just about the only one that doesnt get it. Either your being purposely obtuse or there are some other outlier issues with your compehension on this issue.

Ah yes, because I don't think the same as the right wingers on here, then I must not get it. Oh I get it, which is why I call this faux outrage. Now tell me, why do you care that a random tv show has edited its content because the one cast in it wanted something to be taken out?

Well I disagree, I haven't been seeing any moderates or liberals posting in this thread that have been as upset as the right wingers on this thread about a tv show being edited. Now tell me, why do you care that a random tv show has edited its content because the one cast in it wanted something to be taken out?
