Sean regrets...
Sean Penn now admits that Saddam Hussein used him as a propaganda tool, but that isn't stopping more celebs from joining the battalion of opponents of war against Iraq. Penn conceded on "Larry King Live" that he served the agenda of Iraqi officials who invited him on his controversial three-day trip to their country last month. "I didn't expect to be told the truth on everything," said the actor. "They said that I said this, they said that I said that. I think it's meaningless horse— ... That is the way that they behave. But, you know, that's a price I was willing to pay." Penn, who more than once has gotten rough with photographers, added: "I do not stand here as a pacifist. I would aspire to be a pacifist."
"But I can't make it as a pacifist, so I have to settle for being a pseudointellectual and a dullard at heart."
