Spotted on the West Lawn of the Capitol before thousands of protesters chanting “Kill the bill” and “Can you hear us now?”: Academy Award winner Jon Voight with actor John Ratzenberger, best known for his role of Cliff Clavin on “Cheers.”
Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., who organized Thursday’s “House Call on Congress” against the health care reform bill referred to Voight as “a true national treasure,” playing on his role in “National Treasure: Book of Secrets.”
A prominent conservative in Hollywood, Voight said, “Obama has his own obsession to ram this health care bill through Congress and to turn America into a socialist country.”
