Anne Hathaway Puts Obama on the Spot Over 'Hate Preacher'
UK First Post ^ | 1/8/09

Posted on 01/08/2009 10:34:03 AM PST by lewisglad

Anne Hathaway, who is currently promoting two movies, a serious-ish family melodrama Rachel Getting Married, for which she is being tipped for an Oscar nomination, and a knockabout comedy called Bride Wars, has expressed some uncertainty about Barack Obama. Her gripe is over the President-elect's decision to allow Pastor Rick Warren, a fundamentalist Christian described by some as a "hate preacher", to deliver one of the invocation speeches at his inauguration on January 20. "I expect him to explain that choice of Rick Warren," says the 26-year-old, Vassar-educated actress (pictured). "I don't get it. All my friends and I were trying to figure it out, but we just can't"…………

This is one of those ‘can God make a rock so heavy He cannot lift it’ problems for the left. Which demands more allegience from them, gay rights or 0bama?

“who are paid to repeat words other people write”

Not to mention that they need a director to tell them where to stand ...

She can’t figure it out? Vassar should be so proud.

Seriously, I thought she WAS referring to Wright when I saw the title...

I did too. There for a second I thought there was a new "secret conservative" in hollywierd. What a let-down. They see everything upside down. I wonder how long such people can peacefully co-exist with civilized society?

and audio earpieces in the trailer to have someone read them their lines, that was Brando’s trick later in his career.

Gee, thanks, Hathaway. You’ve just given me reason enough to NEVER buy or watch any more of your movies. I suspected you were a liberal, but it was better when you kept you trap shut. I won’t get rid of “Princess Diaries” or “Enchanted” (?) because my daughter likes them, but no more.

When will these bubblehead lib actresses just shut up and ACT?

When will these celebrities realize that when they make comments like this they are dissing 50 percent of their audience?

Yes, the ideological divide is becoming irreconcilable.

Didn’t the left-wing extremist websites force Obama to pick Panetta as CIA head?

I figure this is just one of an ever-increasing list of things Miss Hathaway doesn’t get.

Hopefully soon she’ll get used to the feeling and stop bleating about it in public.

Obama probably wanted Bill Ayers as his Vp but knew that would guarantee his followers would demand his impeachment so Ayers could ascend.
