Woody Allen says President Obama should be granted dictatorial powers (seriously)

Woody Allen has a strange take on the democracy that allowed him to become rich and famous.

The "Scoop" director said it would be a cool idea for President Barack Obama to be dictator for for a few years.

Why?

So he could get things done without all the hassle of opposing views getting in the way.

In an interview published by Spanish language newspaper La Vanguardia (that we translated), Allen says “I am pleased with Obama. I think he’s brilliant. The Republican Party should get out of his way and stop trying to hurt him.”

But wait - there's more!

The director said "it would be good…if he could be a dictator for a few years because he could do a lot of good things quickly."

This is...unbelievable. Does Allen Koenigsburg actually think he could have become anything in a dictatorship run by someone like Obama? He has to know that Obama is just silently anti-Semitic and really only waiting his chance to go commando. What possesses these Hollywood types?

Any questions about the way Hollywood thinks?

This is the enemy within trying to take the country to communism. It is just that they will be the ruling elite.

Woody neeeeeeds to be committed to an institution for life. He is too old to contribute anything.

That’s actually typical Woody Allen. Doesn’t surprise me at all.

He used to turn out some pretty funny movies. Now he’s a has-been who, in order to grab 15 minutes of fame, has to make such idiot statements.

Woody Allen has always been irrelevant except to the NY and Hollywood elite. And he isn’t funny.

That’s how a lot of Germans felt back in 1933.

Woody is proving what most Israeli Jews think of Jews in this country: They’re idiots.

But then, he DOES have influence amongst the marry-your-teenage-stepdaughter crowd.

Woody Allen also suggests Barry and Michelle adopt a daughter so obama can photograph her in artsy poses, and marry her if he gets tired of michelle
