The Razzies : Awards you don’t want to win

Áine on February 27th, 2005 filed in General

“President Bush won the Golden Raspberry Award on Saturday for worst actor of the year for his appearance in Michael Moore’s documentary Fahrenheit 9/11.”

“The president not only was named worst male actor in a leading role, he also won for being half of the year’s worst screen couple when paired with either Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice or ‘My Pet Goat,’ the book he was reading to schoolchildren on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001.

“Footage of Bush continuing to read the book after being given first word of the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon was one of the key scenes in Moore’s highly critical film.

“Two other ‘Fahrenheit’ stars were “honored.” Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was named worst supporting actor and pop star Britney Spears won for worst supporting actress for a clip in which she declares blind faith in Bush’s policies while popping chewing gum.

Winners receive a golf-ball-sized figure of a “Raspberry” atop a mangled Super 8 film reel that is spray-painted gold.”

I think Kerry should have got something for the debates. How many actors can keep a straight face with a squaking parrot hooked up to a wire and ear piece is standing beside them, with drool coming out the side of his mouth and the audosity to tell you “Its hard work…”

?

John Kerry, best supporting actor. Best supporting actor for playing along in a political game rigged from the very beginning for Bush to “win”. This became glaringly obvious to me when on November 3rd, President John Forbes Kerry dissappeared completely from any media eye whatsoever for a period of MONTHs….while his voters were robbed and manipulated.

Best supporting actor indeed.
