Bush 'stole election and poisoned democracy'
Madrid - US actress Jessica Lange says she "hates" President George Bush's administration and regards a possible attack on Iraq as "unconstitutional, immoral and illegal", Spanish press reports said on Thursday.
The 53-year-old Oscar-winning actress lambasted the US government at a press conference at the San Sebastian film festival, where she received a lifetime achievement award.
"What Bush intends to do with Iraq is unconstitutional, immoral and illegal," Lange was quoted as saying.
"I hate Bush. I despise him and his entire administration - not only because of its international policy, but also the national. Today it makes me feel ashamed to come from the United States - it is humiliating."
'The atmosphere in my country is poisonous' "Bush stole the elections and since then we have all been suffering the consequences. The Iraq plan is absolutely mad, but what I do not understand is that nobody tries to stop it - neither inside nor outside the United States," the actress added.
"The atmosphere in my country is poisonous, intolerable for those of us who are not right-wing, so thank you for inviting me to this festival and allowing me to get out for a few days," Lange said on receiving the Donostia Prize, presented by Spanish actor Jose Coronado.
She also slammed Hollywood and said she preferred to work in Europe. - Sapa-DPA
Spain is way too good for her. Send her to Iraq. She can lewinski Saddam as he watches his snuff and torture videos.
The Jessica Lange Fan Forum & Guestbook are temporarily closed.
ROFL! Just like Alecbaldwin.com
Welcome to the official Alec Baldwin Online Guestbook! SPECIAL NOTE TO ALL OF OUR VISITORS: Due to the constant and steady stream of offensive material that has been posted here on my Guestbook, regretfully we are closing the Guestbook indefinitely.
FREEPERS GET THE JOB DONE AGAIN. Lefties choose to close their websites and hide rather than face the truth about their Anti-American hating traitorous comments.
We will have to check in on this site again when they 'think' the coast is clear.
I guess that they only like to talk about the "Entertainment Tonight"/People Magazine niceties.
The operator of the OJ Simpson/Robert Blake fan website must have gone through hell to keep his page pleasant.
Here is what Kristin wrote today when someone asked about if Miss Lange's comments were getting American press:

I have not seen anything in the mainstream media about the press conference, but there are quite a few people mad at her as I have had to close the board and guestbook until they all find someone else to harrass. I am tired of dealing with them, they are extremely rude and vicious. (You must have the message board bookmarked)...anyway, I really don't know the the impact this will have on her stage career, we can hope none, but who knows...
Notice: Kristin admits to removing messages. She did not bother to delete the pro-Spain comments so Kristin has lied.
Silly weegee -- "a civil manner" means "you agree with Jessica".
It would seem that Hollywood is getting a free ride for this outrage.
When I searched Google for "Jessica Lange" "hate the president", I only found one match, ta-da! It was at JessicaLange.net in an article titled Dark Victory (from the Guardian):
Seriously? "Nooooo, I can't drag my kids out of the country just because I hate the president, although I would be tempted. [She laughs again.] You know, to see his smirking little face on TV every night, and to listen to him - he's such a stupid man.
What an empty headed moron.
A search of "Jessica Lange" "I hate Bush" reveals that MSNBC did give it some gossip coverage but outside of MSNBC, it got no wire coverage.
Has anyone sent this to Drudge?
Maybe if some of her fans knew what she stood for and assailed, then they would no longer be fans.
Suuuure.
That will come as a shocker to my wife, who is Jewish and is a lurker here.
I'll say. Let her come over here and say this crap to our faces! Those people in Spain probably didn't even understand a word she said anyway.
"Aye Aye, T_rd jettisoned."
