Tony Soprano.
Stolen from our pals at Blah3, we bring you the word. Between him and Steven "Silvio" Van Zandt, maybe they can smack some sense into Tony "Paulie Walnuts" Sirico.
Tony Soprano to Bush: Get out of my city
From 30th Street and 8th Avenue in Manhattan streaming downtown, tens of thousands of union members joined a huge AFL-CIO Labor Day rally against George W. Bush. Featured were all the labor speakers you'd expect, including AFL-CIO head John Sweeney. A minister read the passage from Exodus about the burning bush, inspiring the crowd to chant: "Put Bush out."
Then James Gandolfini came before the crowd and spoke briefly and pithily. "I can't tell you how mad I am these people are in my city," the actor who plays Tony Soprano bellowed, pointing backward at Madison Square Garden. "I can't tell you how mad I am it took Bush four days to get here after 9/11." And the crowd of New Yorkers -- sheet metal workers, transportation workers, teachers -- erupted.
