Woods: Film biz 'almost lunatic liberal'
James Woods may detest those "Limousine Liberals" whom Conservatives seem to so rabidly fear, but I wonder if he's already forgotten that it's those same folks have made it possible for him to become so fabulously successful?
NEW YORK (AP) -- Actor James Woods says he considers former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani an American hero and fought "tooth and nail" to portray him as such in an upcoming television film.
The actor, concerned that a "lunatic liberal" Hollywood would vilify Giuliani or present him as overly conservative, says he insisted on approving the script for "Rudy: The Rudy Giuliani Story," before agreeing to play the part.
"Our business is notorious for being almost lunatic liberal," Woods told The New York Times in Sunday editions. "There's sort of a loony fringe that's way over the top and out of step with mainstream America."
Woods said had no insight into whether or not Giuliani would like the movie or his portrayal, "But he can rest assured of this: I fought tooth and nail to play him as the genuine hero that I unequivocally believe him to be."
"But if they were interested in presenting the liberal jihad against Rudy, then I wasn't really interested in participating," he added.
Hmm...it sounds as if someone has been channelling Ann Coulter just a little bit too long....
