November 11, 2004 -- VINCENT D'Onofrio, the star of "Law & Order: Criminal Intent," passed out while shooting the hit TV series yesterday morning — prompting insiders to gossip that the actor is "losing it." "Ever since John Kerry lost the election, [D'Onofrio] has lost his [bleep,]" said our on-set insider.
"He has been getting into fistfights with people, and when he passed out today, we all thought he was faking it. But then he insisted they call 911."
An ambulance raced to the Queens studio, where paramedics found nothing wrong with the gifted actor, who became a star in 1987 with his searing performance as a misfit Marine in "Full Metal Jacket."
Tensions on the "Criminal Intent" set are running high. "No one thinks Vincent will last for much longer," the insider said.
"He is so hard to work with — a total freak. He constantly complains about the scripts and has held up production a lot."
D'Onofrio, a big Kerry supporter, was said to be devastated over President Bush's re-election. "When PAGE SIX [last week] wrote about 'Law & Order' putting up signs forbidding political discussions on set, it was funny," our source said. "Those signs were put up because of [D'Onofrio]."
About a month before the election, D'Onofrio "insisted" on putting up anti-Bush posters and fliers, "and would attack anyone who disagreed with him," the spy added.
In response, "Law & Order" producers posted signs banning political discussions or anything else that would impede work on set, implying that D'Onofrio had held up taping of the show with his political zealotry.
D'Onofrio's co-stars, Kathryn Erbe, Jamey Sheridan and Courtney B. Vance, are said to be fed up with his antics.

This guy can stay passed out for all I care. I have never heard of him. He sounds like a nut job.
I have a great deal of trouble suspending disbelief in movies, and D'Onofrio's Pyle completely convinced me.
"Edgar, your skins hangin' off yer bones."
Love that line from MIB.
Seriously his best role, a cockroach in a human body.
Lucky me! I don't have any idea who this troublemaker is!
If God wanted Kerry to win that election he would have miracled him that election.
Well, get rid of the "bleep" and call an agent and have them send over another quasi-talented guy with a giant press-agent-supplied ego and we'll make a star out of him.
These people aren't political supporters they are literally possessed and in need of an exorcist.
beyond help of an exorcism. I think the proper method is tying them to a large stone and tossing into the bay.
Hmmmm... he played a great space cockroach in "Men In Black."
I've been following this guy's career for a few years. He's certainly an oddball. Very talented, but an oddball.
Ever compare his role in MIB with Gore's second debate with "W"? The debate where Gore had on more makeup than a $3.00 tart. The similarities are fightening and hilarious. Particularly the scene in MIB in the morgue where he is talking to the attendant.
Oh you bring back fond memories of Gore the harlot. Kinda like the orange colored, botoxed Kerry. Let us pray that this country never elects a pansyass metrosxual like Gore, Dean, Kerry, Edwards (I think he's a closet McGreevey type), or Biden. At least Clinton had some masculine characteristics (and the libido to match), unlike these other girlie-men.
ONE JELLY DONUT!
This is the funniest thing I've read in a long time!!
"D'Onofrio? What kind of name is that? Only faggots and sailors are named D'Onofrio! Sounds like royalty. Are you some kind of royalty?"
The libs often say President Bush looks like a chimp. This bothers me, because my husband looks like a gorilla. I think their both very handsome.
The verdict is definitely in. The Democratic Party is the party of the mentally unbalanced. They're big issue is healthcare because they want to make sure their mental health bills will be taken care of.
