'Commander-In-Chief' Sutherland: Bush Will Destroy Our Lives!
2005-10-03
Choking back tears, COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF star Donald Sutherland warned this week: President Bush "will destroy our lives!"

The star of the new ABC Hillary for President commercial drama, which follows the first woman President of the United States, lashed out at the real White House during a dramatic sit down interview with the BBC.
Typical Hollywood Liberal, goes overseas to rip the president.
Sutherland ripped Bush and his administration for the war and Hurricane Katrina fallout.

"They were inept. The were inadequate to the task, and they lied," Sutherland charged. "And they were insulting, and they were vindictive. And they were heartless. They did not care. They do not care. They do not care about Iraqi people. They do not care about the families of dead soldiers. They only care about profit."

At one point during the session, Sutherland started crying: "We stolen our children's future... We have children. We have children. How dare we take their legacy from them. How dare we. It's shameful. What we are doing to our world."

Sutherland went on rip Karl Rove's "methods and means" against people like Cindy Sheehan. "We're back to burning books in Germany," Sutherland said of NBC's editing out of Kanye West's comment on Bush during a hurricane relief telethon.
As if I needed another reason not to watch this show.

#19  Sounds like he does a pretty good Senator Voinovich impersonation. Tears rolling, rending garments, gnashing teeth, lamenting OUR CHILDREN'S FUTURE.

Let's see...hmmmm.

Nazi Brown Shirts burning books = NBC deleting the inflamatory, racist lies against the President of the United States on national TV by a filthy mouthed, sexist piece of human excrement.

That makes sense.

#13  "They did not care.
They do not care.
They do not care about Iraqi people."

They care only for the sheeple.
They do not think.
They do not Stink (oh, wait, the protesting ones DO stink...).
They're loves in the gutter.
They're sperms in the sink...

Hey, whadda ya know? Gibberish is pretty easy to spew after all!

And here I thought these leftie stooges were intelligent - there I go again mistaking monosyllabism for smarts...

Would have been more effective had he merely pointed and screeched like he did at the end of Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

#10  What's sad is that he's going to be just as bad on the Lifetime movie Human Trafficking, which beyond the usual errors is not only derivative and cliched but narrow without being focused; acting like it's only women (presumably adult) are trafficked for prostitution. It's not. Sudan, anyone?

'Course, one must wonder why ANY male shows up in a Lifetime flick...

#9  I would not be surprised if in the deep recesses of the Hollywood subconscious, they would think that "Condoleeza Rice can't be the first woman president! Geena Davis was the first REAL woman president! Just like the greatest of our presidents: George Kennedy!"

#8  But there's so many not real presidents around to not listen to. There's girl president now and Martin Sheen. Who can we not turn to? Who?

#7  What’s interesting is that the MSM sees this and acts like Donald actually IS an elected official instead of an ACTOR. Are we next going to hear from the pretend President? Maybe one of her Cabinet members can opine about the goings on in Washington and offer some helpful hints? I found the show mildly entertaining, but now I can free up my Tuesday nights with something else.

#6  I met Donald Sutherland while filming the TV movie "The Hunley". He is the most arrogant, self absorbed, Pompass Ass I have ever had the displeasure of meeting. His attitude was, "I am the STAR! Bow down and kiss my feet! You are nothing more than pawns hired to support MY Great Acting Moment." Nuff said. I didn't like him.

#5  Not those kind of flashbacks, Steve...

#4  In The Eagle has Landed, Sutherland played an IRA operative who assisted the Nazis. I thought he played it really well. I guess it wasn't an act.
