Sean's Penn-sive

We've stayed away from commenting on Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath in New Orleans (go to Michelle Malkin for the news) but we couldn't resist this story:

EFFORTS by Hollywood actor Sean Penn to aid New Orleans victims stranded by Hurricane Katrina foundered badly overnight, when the boat he was piloting to launch a rescue attempt sprang a leak.

Penn had planned to rescue children waylaid by Katrina's flood waters, but apparently forgot to plug a hole in the bottom of the vessel, which began taking water within seconds of its launch.


Self-aggrandizing prat.

He should have just given a generous donation instead. It's another reason why entertainers should just 'Shut up and sing'.

UPDATE
In light of new information, Tim Blair feels obliged to unreservedly withdraw his mockery of the former Mr Madonna.

We do not.
