I do, especially when they sit in front of Congressional committees and try to pass themselves off as some kind of foreign affairs expert or an expert in some other field that is FAR outside their expertise as an actor or an athlete. Call me an intellectual snob, but I have no real interest in listening to these type of people (some of whom lack even a high school diploma) prattle on about their views of world affairs.

So cudos to Shaq.
