Streisand Hints That Movie on Reagan Will Be Hatchet Job

A lot of people were skeptical when Mr. Barbra Streisand, James Brolin, won the starring role in the CBS miniseries "The Reagans." His wife today confirmed their suspicions of a hatchet job.

On her TV show this afternoon Oprah Winfrey asked Babs about the oddball casting. "How is that for you, Miss Democrat?"

A smirking Streisand responded to titters, "I said as long as they tell the truth about Ronald Reagan, I have no problem."

Considering her history of distorting the truth to suit her partisan agenda, expect Hollywood to be even more inaccurate than usual on this "biography."

Well the best we can hope for is for Tom Arnold to be cast as the Gipper.

Brolin was type-cast for Reagan's most recent years.

Any chance of seeing Insane Streisand giving Bubba Clintoon an oral cleanout in the Lincoln Bedroom while Jimbo watches and Hitlery claps?

That's OK. As much as it wil aggravate the bejesus out of us here, Ol' Babbsbignose fogets about the many Reagan Democrats who may watch this movie. It's sure to be a hatchet job on one of the best Presidents this country has had and, they may recognize it as such. She could be doing us a favor before the election. Of course, shes too ignorant to realize it.

Let them. And watch CBS pay the price in ratings, viewers and advertising.

If it's a true hatchet job, then every single company that advertises during that movie should be on the receiving end of complaints and boycotts.

And, since CBS is the "gray network", it will really tick off those of us in their demographic age group market.

"Go ahead CBS, make our day"!

I saw that on Fox about Asner! I knew he was a commie, but ....! I was going to post a thread about it, but figured someone else would before I could. Maybe I was wrong. Haven't seen one yet, but I have been known to miss some.
