Today’s Video: Alba and the “a-hole”

The bad news: Actress Jessica Alba was amongst those "honored" with nominations for this year’s Razzie Awards. The Razzies- which celebrate the crème de la crap of the film industry- named Alba as a finalist in the worst actress category for her roles in "The Guru" and "The Eye".

The good news: Alba kept her cool during a recent red carpet appearance after being accosted by a Fox News ambush crew. As you can see in the clip below, she had some not-so-flattering words for the network’s star blowhard: Bill O’Reilly.

(For the record, I absolutely detest the loudmouths that litter the 24-hour news networks and talk radio stations. Whether they are on the left or right, these masses of hot air take masturbatory glee in stifling any form of rational thought through their juvenile distortions and scolding).

I'm sorry about Jessica Alba and the Razzies award thing, but she kind of had it coming. "The Guru"? Come on, after the fantastic four thing you would think that she has more pull to get better roles. Or is she just after the money? By the way, she's right on the money about O'Reilly being an a-hole.

I admit that I used to watch his show because sometimes it could be fun, but after he managed to connect the death of Marcelo Lucero at the hands of a gang that was looking for Latinos to beat up and the death of two women because of a drunk driver...it convinced me that O'Reilly have some kind of nasty agenda or is just an unreformed bigot (probably both).

Also, Jamie Foxx makes a good point in that video you posted about George W. Bush: We voted for him twice. Election matters and the choices we make as citizens. A majority of the people is now against the war in Iraq, but in 2003 it was the reverse. After 9/11 we wanted to get someone, Saddam Hussein was an easy target, the press was not doing their job and even the democrats in congress (Biden, Hillary, John Edwards) voted for the war resolution.

Now, we have a new president, the economy is in bad shape an the government is cooking an stimulus package worth more than a trillion dollars that we don't have, so we have to borrow it so our children would pay for it. But never mind, polls say the people are in favor, congress is in favor, the press is not doing their job annnndddd.... if it doesn't work, we can always put ALL OF THE BLAME on Obama for it, like we now put ALL OF THE BLAME for Iraq on George W.

Guantanamo Base and Fox News :

Last Night I watched Fox News and I saw our common friends Bill O'Reilly and Laura Ingraham showing their Great Humanity and Kindness, their Great Culture, Great Civilization and Great Understanding of Politics and Foreign Policy, and above all their Supreme Intelligence, they are Great Geniuses.

And this pair explained how Torture was Necessary and that it was the best method to keep America Safe. And that it was good because it worked and had been the best method to obtain information.

And how EXPEDIENCY was the best policy always and should be the guide for foreign policy.

So they are very angry at the closing of Guantanamo Base.
