Pretty woman, ugly mouth.

Once again we get a brainy comment from a celeb.

<b>JULIA ROBERTS UNLOADS ON BUSH!</b>

It's a tight race for the Best Bush Basher award in Hollywood this month, but actressactivist Julia Roberts appears to have locked up the prize.

The pretty woman holds a conspiracy theory behind the election of President George W. Bush, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

"He's embarrassing," Roberts recently confided to friends and associates, according to sources. "He's not my president. He will never be my president"

Roberts turns animated when discussing politics. She told an audience last year: "Republican comes in the dictionary just after reptile and just above repugnant... I looked up Democrat. It's of the people, by the people, for the people."

Roberts is being encouraged to publicly express her political views during the Oscar blitz.

"I sure hopes she takes a moment to tell her fans just how deeply she feels about the current political climate in this country," said a top producer who has worked with Roberts. "She'd make a great spokeswoman... Go for it, Julia!'"

MIRAMAX head Harvey Weinstein plans to vote for Julia, for the Academy Award, and he's advised his talent to do the same.

Weinstein told the NEW YORK DAILY NEWS this week: "Juliette [Binoche, nominated for CHOCOLAT] asked me, 'Who should I vote for?' I said, 'Julia!' We're both voting for her. I competed with Spielberg, but I won't compete with Julia."

But Weinstein apparently has not taken his name out of competition for Best Bush Basher.

Weinstein, at the TALKMIRAMAX spa special in Santa Barbara this week, turned in a stunning performance.

According to an eyewitness quoted in today's WASHINGTON POST, Weinstein said: "If you had a recount today, Al Gore would get 90 percent of the vote and Bush would get 10 percent, and Bill Clinton would be the honorary Treasury secretary and we wouldn't have this economic crisis, because the way the stock market was going we're all going to be wiped out."

The truth hurts. The Clinton legacy will be the great economic times we had until the Republicans got control of the house, senate, and presidency.

Give me a break, Bob. There is no way that you can blame Bush for our current economic woes. He simply hasn't had time to do anything good or bad to our economy. If you want to blame a politician, blame Al Gore. The markets did not go into their current state of decline until he decided to contest Florida. If he had given his concession speech on election night, we could be in different shape now.

[bob]

If Al Gore won yes we would be in different shape now.

I could say that when Cheney got his heart problem the panic started.

[drisley]

I find it funny that these limosine liberal Hollywood fucknuts think we should actually take their opinions seriously.

Julia, just keep acting. That's your job, actress. Let those of us with the brains think about politics.

BTW, neither Gore nor Bush had anything to do with this economy. It did it to itself. Greenspan played a part with his messing around and Clinton played a part by pretending it wasn't happening until he left office.

///Julia, just keep acting. That's your job, actress. Let those of us with the brains think about politics////////

Remember Regan - to young to see his movies?

[mairving]

Well, actually I don't know if you can really blame anyone. Certainly the uncertainty about the election didn't help. It is probably also a slowdown in the tech sector, albeit a delayed one after Y2K. I really don't think that you can blame Greenspan. He has done quite a bit to keep us out of trouble. This slowdown has been long predicted and started under Clinton.

Maybe the stock market will return to sanity now. I mean for so long people were investing in the worst companies because these companies said <b>.com</b>. Some of these companies were formed not to make profits out of selling product or services but to make a killing in the market. As an example, I was looking up a company that I used to buy product from, Onvia.com. Last year they had $148 million in sales, while losing $117 million. Their stock value was $78/per share. Now that investors are being more careful, their share price is $.084! Similar stories abound. I used to work for an E-commerce company that was on the verge of doing an IPO. This company changed their name to a dot.com and started selling product over the net. Well the company is now on the verge of bankruptcy.

[drisley]

Bob, I knew you would say that. Is there really a comparison between Reagan and Julia Roberts? Gimme a break. There's a huge difference. For one, Reagan took it upon himself to do something. Roberts, along with Streisand, Spielberg, Baldwin and the other fucknuts, all they do is complain. And their comments are ludicrous. They are childish. Roberts comparing Republicans to reptiles. Baldwin saying he's leaving the country (which of course he doesnt mean). Same with Streisand. These people are nothing but unhappy rich hyprocrites who know damn good and well that the policies they support for the "working people" won't apply to them, hence the term "limosine liberal".

And, mairving, I would argue that Greenspan did have something to do with this. He wanted to "correct" the economy because it was doing too well. He did so with the interest rates. I believe he overshot it. And, being that he works for the Federal Reserve, a private corporation, he is not held accountable by the people. In fact, he just got a pay raise.

bob and others,
The economic problems we see now really started back in November, before Bush took office. Most economic gurus agree on this.

I don't blame Clinton or Bush for it. Rather, it's a function of the normal economic cycle.

RE: Julia Roberts; It's funny when such comments come out of that big empty head of hers. Really funny.

[bob]

This is not a recession. It is a change in the economy and market. The dotcoms were jokes that lost money so everyone lost that wasted money.
Unemployment is not rising much despite the layoffs. Everyone I know of who was laied off got another job right away.

The super rich won. Must just live with it. Trickle down bull is back so there is little hope of a boom in the economy. The rich will stay rich and the poor will stay poor. That is what conseritives want and that it why the investers are stagnated. Consertive means keep things the same or the way they were before.

Wish those hollywood Dems would post here - those statements are funny. reptiles has a ring of truth dont you think ;)

[troysvihl]

a ring of truth if you use it to describe democrats. they're the ones that think they have a right to everyone's else's money.

[SARGE]

It's called cycles. Nowadays, with the "I want it now crowd", we're impatient and will blame somebody fast; unfortunately for Bush it will be his bag. For those who can't see past the political label...

[troysvihl]

"Consertive means keep things the same or the way they were before"


You really need to put down the dictionary bob. That definition is about as accurate today as the dictionary definition of liberal. the dictionary definition of liberal is someone who favors individual freedom, and we all know the modern day liberal is as far displaced from the philosophy as possible.

[bob]

Freedom of thought. ;)

[drisley]

Looks like Julia is kinda selfish, too:
