Catherine Zeta-Jones Expecting Again (Maureen Dowd remains bitter and childless)

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Welsh actress Catherine Zeta-Jones (news) and her Oscar-winning husband, Michael Douglas (news), are expecting their second child next spring, their spokesman said.

The 33-year-old raven-haired beauty gave birth to the couple's first child, a son named Dylan Michael Douglas, in August of 2000, three months before the two movie stars were married.
Much to the delight of Zeta-Jones' father-in-law, veteran actor Kirk Douglas (news), young Dylan carried on a prominent Douglas family trait -- the dimpled chin of his grandfather.

Michael Douglas, 58, an Academy Award winner as best actor for his 1987 role in "Wall Street," also has an adult son, Cameron, from his first marriage.

Not to worry. Reports have it that Maureen is performing multiple Lewinskis and making sure that Howell Raines.

Actually, I think Michael Douglas was sent to woo her by Clinton, so that her columns would become less critical (they were very scathing on Clinton during the Monica scandal). Once Clinton escaped being thrown out of office, Douglas dumped her.

BINGO!!!

p.s. Cladia Cohen performed the same service on Senator Al D'Amato. She got Senator Al to get off Clinton's case when he was chairman of the Senate Banking Committee. Then once Senator Al was defeated, she dumped him like a hot potato. BTW, does anybody remember when Senator Al called a press conference to announce that he was "IN LOVE!" with Claudia? Pathetic!

Once Clinton escaped being thrown out of office, Douglas dumped her. I believe that part of her vendetta against Bush is that she thinks if she is really, REALLY mean to President Bush, Michael will come back.

That would make Michael Douglas little more than a gigolo. Given what he did with Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct, this is not an unreasonable assumption however.

Unfortunately for Andrea Mitchell, she had to actually marry her target!

What, you think these people have ethics? That is EXACTLY what happened! Douglas wooed her as the Impeachment was starting, her columns on Clinton muted, and after the Senate failed to convict he dumped her. Note also PJ's comment on D'Amato, and my additional comment about Andrea Mitchell, who ended up marrying the head of the Federal Reserve, Alan Greenspan.

Notice also how now Hollywood has been enlisted to diss the entire Bush administration...Harry Belafonte, Woody Harrelson, Barbra Streisand, etc. Clinton calls the shots on this stuff.

Maureen can't admit she was a dupe...hence her transference of blame(accompanied by a crush, as LisaFab says) and nasty columns about President Bush.

Liv’s mother was such a whore oh my god what a dysfunctional environment that child grew up in it’s a miracle if she is mentally normal. Can you imagine reading a book about all the men your mother slept with? Sicky Sicky Sicky.

I've long suspected something of that nature. Douglas, an accomplished rake, could have done and has done much better.

Steve was MIA.

He didn't know he was her father until many years after she was born.

Well, Douglas just went up a notch in my opinion. He had the good sense to LEAVE Maureen Dowd!!!

I don't really know what his politics or that of Zetta-Jones are. And if they are wise, they will keep it private. If I hear them speak out AGAINST this President or our country,.. they will make my boycott list. People NEED TO boycott actors who are speaking up against our country during a time of war. We need to boycott them, and call sponsors who use the actors who do speak up politically. Put the heat on so to speak.

I just heard recently that Alec Baldwin can't get work. ROFL.. if that is true,.. there is a certain kind of poetic justice in the universe!!

explainable by the $$$$--

Except that she's got a lot of $$$ of her own. It perplexes me, this young babe/ old f@rt combination. Saw a beach picture of the two of them, and you'd swear Douglas was seventy instead of sixty. Short, skinny bandy legs, a gut bloat and flabby chest. Probably a daddy fixation. He'll be eighty when the poor kid's in high school...if he's still alive and around.

We do it...
The Danny Glover thing really hurt though. Hated to give him up.

I know. It really bothered me that Danny Glover is taking such a public anti American stand.

He's just following his leader Baghdad Babs.

Sad though....

I heard that the "West Wing" has suffered a 23 percent drop in ratings. If that doesn't tell actors something, I don't know what will.

Calling the advertisers is the smartest most effective thing. That and if they don't listen to us,.. not buying their products.

FRegards, Your ex-fellow Glover fan. :o(

Another one bites the dust.
