Open Happy Birthday Thread: Gary Sinise

Ooh, he's been one of my favorites ever since The Stand. I even put up with the massive cheese on CSI:NY just to get a weekly dose of Mr. Sinise. Why doesn't this man have an Oscar yet? And why aren't more people in Hollywood willing to do as much for our troops? They all claim they support them, and yet so many of the big names avoid having anything to do with them. That's one of the things I respect in Gary Sinise, that's he's willing to back up his words with his actions, especially when it comes to honoring our military. Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Gary Sinise, one fo the VERY few worthy of my entertainment $$$ today

Happy Birthday Gary!!!! One of the remaining Real Men in Hollywood these days!

Happy Birthday Lt. Dan !

Happy Birthday! He's almost becoming the next Bob Hope with his USO tours.

This is what a star ought to be like. He supports our troops without apology or irony. He keeps his politics to himself. He keeps a low profile. He does his job. he delivers the good. He hits his mark, doesn't bump into the furniture, and tells the truth.

Happy birthday, Mr. Sinise, and thanks for the memories

I posted this link a few weeks ago but this thread is the perfect place for it. The url is self-explanatory.

He's a good man.

Have a lovely BIrthday and God Bless!

ScottDS,

I can't get more than the trailer and the photo links to work. Can we buy it yet? Is it out? IMDB was not clear.

I will buy this.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Sinise! Keep up the awesome work for our troops! You're a great American!

Happy Birthday to Mr. Sinise! How rare and magical a thing to see a man who is both a great actor and a great human being. They don't come along often, and when they do they are celebrated, and remembered, forever.

I have no idea! I can't get more than a trailer either and their Facebook page doesn't have much. Something for the BH bloggers to investigate.

Gary is a good soul.

Sinise is cool.

Happy BIRTHDAY!!!! A true american….

hey guys/gals check this out!!!!

Gary narrated this video of an Honor Flight trip to DC. My dad happened to be on this trip and shows up in the video a few times. Thanks Gary for your part in honoring these guys. Happy Birthday.

Happy birthday, sir.

How great would Hollywood be if there were more like him? What a guy!!!

Happy Birthday Gary,
There are lots of fine actors out there and you are certainly one of them.
However, it is your selfless devotion to our troops that awes and inspires me.
Thank you for all that you do for our fine men and women.
A thankful USMC dad!

Usually a joke needs to be funny. Do you find flippant Hitler references funny T-Ray? Nice civility also. Maybe it's time to get back on your Prozak.

I think he was saying I was making the joke, and DHasselhoff was the idiot. I could be wrong…

Happy birthday to a real American hero, who knows the value of the other US heroes!

Kurt Russell and Rob Lowe also celebrating birthdays. How did the conservatives/libertarians get so lucky?

I'm a Vietnam veteran and a retired soldier. Gary Sinise is one of the few actors whose very presence makes me comfortable that I will not be insulted or defamed if I watch. His work with the USO is on a par with the sainted Bob Hope of my generation. God bless you, Gary, and many happy returns.

Happy Birthday Mr. Sinise! Have a great day.

Happy B-day Mr. Sinise…. Good things happen to those who are so unselfish

We were blessed with Bob Hope and now we are blessed with Gary Sinise, who caught the torch and is holding it high. Happy Birthday, sir. You are an inspiration.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GARY… ENJOY THE DAY WITH YOUR FAMILY AND THOSE YOU CHERISH !

What I like about him the most, is that I do not know his politics, I do not care to know. Just as he could care less about mine. As an actor, he is top drawer, with a LOT of time on the stage where the real actors are. He supports his craft in his home town of Chicago. If he supports our troops in the field, he defiantly should not have to defend his personal time the Holly-wierd elite.

Gary,
You remind me of the kind of actors Hollywood used to have in droves: real men who weren't afraid to fight for their country. Check it out:

Happy Birthday, Gary! The picture says it all. Thank you for the great work you do for our troops and for being such an all around good guy. Enjoy your day.

Also, Happy St. Patrick's Day to all. One of my favorite artists, Keith Jarrett performing, "Danny Boy". Enjoy:

For Jim O'Brien, Ray Flynn, Alice and Dutchie. Miss you. Love you.

Happy Happy — I'll think of you tonight when I drink a green beer! Double-Nickel…wow, did you ever think it would happen? LOL (you're still pretty)

Happy Birthday Mr. Sinise and Happy St. Patrick's day as well! Thank you for everything you do for the troops!

Mr. Sinise is an outstanding actor and a solid American. The kind of man you want as a neighbor and with you in trouble. In contrast with his strong achievements on and off the screen, his humility and decency seem shocking in contrast. If we knew how to duplicate a congenial soul this diligent and generous the world would be (and should be) full of them.

This guy is a class act. He reminds me of those actors from the early days.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Sinise, and thanks for your dedication to the men and women in our armed forces, and for some indelible performances. I hope you have a wonderful day.

Another fan here – wishing you a happy birthday and a huge thank you for what you do for our troops!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GARY!! Thanks for everything that you do for our troops and please rest assured that they appreciate it. Especially those at Fort Campbell, KY.

OPEN THREAD MADNESS…

Lieutenant Dan, can you smack some sense into that long lost leftist Forrest Gump? I know did not learn this revisionist history on the shrimp boat with you.

All joking aside, Sinise walks the walk. Solid dude.

Happy Birthday, Gary! You are truly a class act on and off the screen. Thank you so much for your support of our troops.

And maybe a daughter to videotape him and shame him into sobriety.

Happy B day Gary Sinese!

Because Hollywood hates Christians and Conservatives. Mr. Sinise is both.

Happy Birthday Gary!!! Hope u have a wonderful birthday!

You're a stand up guy, Gary. Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Mr. Sinise. You inspire all of us to try harder to do the right thing. If anyone has the chance to attend one of his Lt Dan Band performances, I highly recommend it. Not only are the really good, but everyone involved around him are wonderful people as well. I had the honor to attend an Illinois USO show last October, and the stories told about Mr. Sinise from soldiers and stars alike were just beautiful. He really is as cool as you think he is.

Happy Birthday Gary Sinise you are a great American

Happy Birthday Lt. Dan!!

You need to have a chat with Forrest.

He's going off the deep end.
