Harry Belafonte: Mitt Romney Would Be "End of Civilization"
Sometimes you don't get any wisdom with age
In what may very well be the most shocking (read: most obvious) political condemnation of the 2012 election cycle, outspoken liberal actor/singer Harry Belafonte told The Hollywood Reporter that he has no intention to vote for presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney, unless he wanted to see the end of civilization.
Belafonte recently spoke harshly of President Barack Obama, saying he lacks "moral courage," but when asked whether he'd like to see Romney win the election, he said: "Only if I would like to see the end of civilization. No, absolutely not."
