A Razzie for Hollywood
Hollywood once again has clearly demonstrated its ingrained political prejudice in awarding a “Razzie” to President Bush as the year’s “worst actor” for his “performance” in the anti-Republican campaign polemic Fahrenheit 9/11.
The Golden Raspberries or Razzies are awarded by Hollywood’s Golden Raspberry Award Foundation for the worst acting, screenwriting, songwriting, directing and films offered each year as a counterpart to the Oscars awarded for the so-called best stuff.
In Bush-hater Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 9/11 Bush is cast (with adroit editing) as a moronic, uncaring President who continues to read nursery stories to kiddies at a Florida school after first learning about the 9/11 Islamic attack.
According to the reviews by delighted liberal leftists, Bush “played the part” brilliantly. But now Hollywood says he was the worst actor of the year. Does that mean that he failed to come off as an uncaring dunce despite all of Spinmeister Moore’s efforts?
The crazed, illogical Hollywood left, of course, wants to spin it both ways: He’s a dunce and, what’s more, he’s a lousy actor.
As for the best stuff, Zogby provides some input about the audience and suggests that the country is giving Hollywood a Razzie. The Zogby Poll forecast for the 2005 Oscars presentations on TV:
Only 4 in 10 Democrats would watch
Only 1 in 8 Republicans would watch
As Musician/Wit Oscar Levant once said: Strip away the phony tinsel of Hollywood and you'll find the real tinsel underneath.
