New
York: As the Presidential Elections in the US draw closer,
Hollywood stars' "Bush-Bashing" brigade seems to be expanding
endlessly, with Melanie Griffith being the latest addition.
According to the New York Post, Griffith has reportedly
posted her anti- Bush views on her website, and has criticized
Bush on numerous fronts. "I am a full-blown Democrat. I
always have been. I did visit President George Bush Sr.
[sic] and his wife when they were in the White House. However,
I feel their son is in there without truly having won the
election. I think he is a C-minus president. Don't you have
to have straight A's to be valedictorian of a college class?
How is it possible that we, the great country of America,
have become so deaf, dumb and blind to the obvious?" Griffith
opines on her website. "I am voting for John Kerry because
I think he is his own man. He is extremely intelligent and
has a heart of gold. I have met his wife and she is extremely
bright and charismatic. I believe he should be our next
president. And if Bush is actually voted in this time, I
hope we hold him accountable for 9/11 and for this disastrous
war in Iraq. I am p--ed!" she added.
