In recent years, Cusack has been very passionate about his politics, which may explain why lately mostly of his movies kind of suck as he no longer has a sense of humor.
While the actor is certainly protected under the Constitution to spout his hatred toward hating haters, some worry that with more than 200,000 Twitter followers, he could incite violence.
One media expert told us, “It’s cause for concern certainly. If his followers really pay attention, somewhere in between his tweets of Joe Strummer videos, New York Times opinion columns, Gomer Pyle singing videos, and ramblings about motorcycle rides, they might notice this potentially dangerous message and take action. It’s not a situation like the tragedy at the Discovery Channel yesterday, where the terrorist clearly took issue with them promoting shows like Kate Plus 8. That show only leads to over population and fake celebrity. Fox News and the GOP broadcast lies and racial hatred through propaganda which is a much bigger problem. A lot more people are very likely get bit crankier about those issues than one lone bomber taking issue over a bunch of cookie-cutter-wonder-spawn jaunting around for TV cameras. I'd be particularly concerned about Cusack's fans of the movie Better Off Dead.”

I think the GOP should give him two dollars!
I'd like to take issue with your statement "Formerly potentially cute actor..." He has always been, and will ever be, cute! I don't know about all that other stuff.... :-)
@DonnaW: Okay, okay, he's cute, but Cusack still looks like he hasn't slept since the beginning of the George W. administration. Come to think of it, neither have I!
