Actress and uber-activist Susan Sarandon's mom, 79-year-old Lenora Tomalin: "I am a conservative. I voted for George W. Bush and I simply agree with most everything he has said...It's not that I'm pro-war. It's just that I think that I trust my government more than I would empathize with the government of Iraq." On Sarandon's activism: "That's a given. That's the way she thinks. That's what Hollywood thinks. We don't agree, but I respect hermore than she does me." The Reliable Source suggests that "surely Sarandon respects her mother's opinions": "Wanna bet?" she scoffs. One more peace rally and she's grounded for a month!
