Bush 'stole election and poisoned democracy'
September 26 2002 at 10:15PM
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."
"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

The last time Jessica Lange was relatively important was on premier night of "King Kong 77" or whatever it was.

There ought to be a law that says that when an actor goes overseas, and bashes the USA in public, there passport is revoked and they can't come back to the States. This seems to be the latest "game" played by these phonies!

Perhaps she'll stay in spain, I hear it's dreary there this time of year.
Or perhaps she'll go to Iraq to protect Saddam with her own body.
That would be nice.

Any idea of her I.Q. ??
I don't get it?
I see all kinds of signs in my Liberal Seattle neighborhood that say "Hate Free Zone". Can we send some of these signs to Ms. Lange?
To: tet68
Yes but, "the rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain!" or is it "da plane"?
Maybe she could hook up with Alex baby in France. He'll smack her around and she'll squeal "Oh Kong!!!Ah what a shlong!"

Hey Jessica, just because Sam has a sexual dysfunction problem, no need to take your anger out in public. Anyway, if Bush is so horrible, then go to Iraq and enjoy life under Saddam.
The amazing thing is that we have liberals who actually consider Bush worse than Saddam.

It will be a cold day in you know where before I go to the movies or rent one with any of these IDIOTS in them.
Richard Dreyfus was on Fox & Friends this morning and I had a hard time staying tuned to that arrogant jerk. Why he thinks I or anyone else cares what he thinks about the war is beyond me. GAG!

Who is Jessica Lange, and why does her opinion count for squat?
Jessica must be longing for the days when she could give moving testimony before Congress on the plight of farmers, just because she played a farm wife in a mediocre movie.
To: blam
She must have been due for her afternoon snort. Life is so hard for these has beens. I think I'll burn my copy of Tootsie.
