LOS ANGELES, Feb 26 (Reuters) - Beating such established Hollywood hunks as Colin Farrell and Vin Diesel, U.S. President George W. Bush won the Golden Raspberry Award on Saturday for worst actor of the year for his appearance in Michael Moore's documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11."
Bush, two members of his administration, Britney Spears and the storybook about a goat that the president was reading to children as the Sept. 11 attacks were taking place all took top honors at the "Razzie" awards, now in their 25th year.
"Catwoman," starring 2002 best actress Oscar winner Halle Berry, tied with "Fahrenheit 9/11" by scooping up four "Razzies" -- worst picture, worst directing, worst screenplay and worst performance by an actress for Berry for her "berry bad" work.

Way to go GWB!! If Hollyweird hates GWB this much he is doing everything right in my book!!
GWB ROCKS!!
Now Watch this drive!
By calling Bush "worst actor" are the Raspberries admitting that F9/11 is a work of fiction?
The liberals are so damned mad Bush turned out to be a good politician and leader they decided to trash his acting! Man, they must be hard up. Next thing you know he'll be criticized for being a poor musician.
If they can't find legitimate reasons to dis him they'll just make up crap.
My mistake. President Geourge Bush = President George Bush
That's the $0.64 question. It rather like Tommy Daschle trying to claim a major tax dedution on his house in DC while he was also a senator from SD. To take the tax deduction, the $2 million+ house had to be his primary residence, but in order to be qualified to be a US Senator from SD, his primary residence was required to be in SD. Fortunately, the voters of SD simplified his tax problems back in November.

I would actually think being a bad actor would be a good thing for a politician. As I recall, Reagan was often smeared by his opponents for his "acting" due to the fact that he was an actor at one time.
You can't have it both ways, y'know...
Don't watch Halle Berry in CatWoman for anything but Halle Berry in the CatWoman suit.
meeeeow.
Or it could be a joke, kind of like the razzies are in general. Either way I guess.
Paul Verhoven showed up to accept the numerous awards he recieved from the razzies for Showgirls.

This is BS. I've always enjoyed the Razzies as kind of a good-natured, poking-fun sort of award. Does politics have to be injected into every aspect of society? The article admits that the voters used this as an opportunity to bash Bush as ooposed to voting for someone who actually thought they were acting.
Maybe he did at some later time after the film became a cult classic. It looks like Ben Affleck also wants his Razzies for Gigli.
However, according to the Razzie website,
Until last night when Halle Berry surprised the Razzies by attending and graciously accepting her Worst Actress award for Catwoman.
there's a thought.
You are now my friend.
thank you.
They didn't nominate F-911 to bash Fatso, they did it to bash Bush.
