Jessica may want to go to the CDC webpage for poisonous plants. I dont' think those are strawberries she's been eating.

An embarrassing time to be an American? We liberated millions of people. Unemployment is at historic lows. America is still very free and anybody can make it here. Jessica Lange, YOU may be embarrassed to be an American, but not me. I'm proud to be an American.

What no pies thrown at this leftist bimbo...nobody rushing the stage to stop her speech and protest...unlike what happens to conservatives when they are invited to speak at these wonderful institutions...

Figures doesn't it?

The more these Hollywood empty-headed America hating leftists speak their dribble close to election time, the more they lose.

Despicable tripe all of them.

"Never murder your opponent when he is committing suicide." ~ W. Churchill

Well Jessica. At least Pres. Bush has good company (per your definition) with... your dear friends, Bill ("I believe in killing people)," and Al ("grab his ass"): 

Extraordinary policy of rendition.

[This from White House intelligence advisor Richard Clarke's book] - my bold.

VP Al Gore: "Gore laughed and said, "That's a no-brainer. Of course it's a violation of international law, that's why it's a covert action. The guy is a terrorist. Go grab his ass." 

President Clinton then ordered the CIA to establish the US policy of rendition (PDD#39) during the mid 90's; basically a snatch and grab program designed to secretly send captured Al Quaeda terrorist suspects to places like Egypt where they could be imprisoned and questioned tortured. Oh gee, really! 

According to Gen. Hayden in a Charlie Rose interview a few months back, "we [anyone think "we" might just imply, under Clinton?] did about as many of those [extroadinary renditions] before 9/11 as we have done after."

Bill Clinton, urged on by Richard Clark,  

According to former CIA operative Michael Scheuer - CIA renditions began under Clinton :

"We asked the president [Clinton] what we should do with the people we capture. Clinton said 'That's up to you'."

And then, Jessica, you should spend a minute and reflect on your dear hero, Bill Clinton, who turned his back on Afghanistan, Rwnada, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Sierra Leone, the Ivory Coast, and on HIV/Aids pandemic and Malaria epidemic in Africa. Perhaps 5-10 millions lives were lost which might have been saved, had only Bill Clinton sought to lead, instead of worring about polls.

Finally, your bud Bill (my bold):

The "leader of the free world" waxing oh so eloquently:
"'We're not inflicting pain on these fuckers,' Clinton said, softly at first. 'When people kill us, they should be killed in greater numbers.' Then, with his face reddening, his voice rising, and his fist pounding his thigh, he leaned into Tony [Lake], as if it was his fault. 'I believe in killing people who try to hurt you. And I can't believe we're being pushed around by these two-bit pricks.'" -- George Stephanopoulos writing about the Somalia crisis in "All Too Human," page 214

I REALLY need somebody, ANYBODY, to give me direct evidence that the right of habeas corpus as been "eliminated". 

If that were true, I want to know why I am not languishing in an Anchorage slam as a result of my getting stopped for a "traffic violation".   

Res tantum valet quantum vendi potest.

If the Bush administration is so intent on silencing its enemies as these idiots would like us to believe, how come I can't escape hearing at least one idiot EVERY DAY declaiming that the Bush adminstration is silencing its enemies? WHERE'S THE SILENCE????????????

The history of the race, and each individual's experience, are thick with evidence that a truth is not hard to kill and that a lie told well is immortal.-- Mark Twain

The sex, drugs, money, and ego culture of Hollywood continues to remind us how rationally vacuous they are.

Give them a few box-office millions and some notoriety, and suddenly they become intellectual power-houses wanting right the wrongs of mankind when, in reality, they are nothing more than participants in Hollywood’s version of Lewis Carroll’s - Mad Hatter’s Tea Party.

eliminated the right of habeas corpus

Now that's a pretty definitive statement. The entire English Common Law foundation of American jurisprudence has been "eliminated." It is no more.

American citizens who are arrested are NO LONGER legally required to be brought before a Judge for arraignment.

Did anyone else notice that Habeas Corpus has been eliminated in the United States. My God -- was it mentioned MSNBC?  I watch Law & Order and they haven't got the memo.

Or it could be that Jessica Lange is dumber than dirt.

Vote 4 change. Vote 4 anything. See Jack & Mr Shy's first campaign ad for the ONLY viable 3rd party candidate.

Where has Jessica Lange been since 9-11? Living on a "fantasy island?"

All of Ms Lange's complaints should be directed not at Bush, but the entire Congress, who approved the Patriot Act, war with Iraq, and continued funding. And she should complain also about 99% of America who approved the Patriot Act in public opinion polls after 9-11. Also, on going to war in the first place with Afghanistan and Iraq, the favorable opinon was in the 70-80% range.

Oh, and lest we forget, those soldiers that crossed the line in the military got stiff punishment.

We are living in an America that in the last seven and a half years has waged an unnecessary war, established prison camps, condoned torture, employed corporate armies, eliminated the right of habeas corpus, practiced extraordinary rendition, and believe me, this is only a partial list—I had to keep myself in check.

This sounds like it is coming straight from the Democratic Party--leading up to the election of 1864.  Many of these same charges were levied at President Lincoln into the summer of 1864 but fortunately for us he stuck to his policies and managed to preserve the United States for future generations.  Do the Dems not have an updated playbook?  And, as many of you have already pointed out, Lange does herself no favors by acting as if these types of policies were invented by GWB since 2001.  I only wish the left-leaning media would call her on it so as to provide some balance, but then again I have a feeling most folks these days are tuning out the Hollywood crowd as a bunch of fuzzy-brained nutjobs who live fantasy lives, so perhaps the media doesn't see a need to identify Jessica Lange's ridiculousness since it is already so evident.
