Just a little advice there Ms Lange and the students listening to her bullshit rant.

First off - What a lovely way to kick off YOUR Memorial Day Weekend - NOT

And second, if you want to commit yourselves to the “pursuit of peace”, don’t listen to the bias of the MSM. Start paying attention to the people that are actually fighting the war and have WON it..

The more I hear from liberals and their LACK of truth and facts on the war, the more I believe there is a huge problem with mental retardation in the “I hate Bush” community…

BRONXVILLE, N.Y. –Oscar-winner Jessica Lange bashed the Bush administration and denounced the war in Iraq during a commencement address at Sarah Lawrence College.

The star of “Tootsie” and “Blue Sky” was applauded by students Friday at the small liberal arts college after comparing the conflict with the Vietnam War. She said the graduates have “a heavy burden” to chart a new path for the country.

“We are living in an America that, in the last seven and a half years, has waged an unnecessary war, established prison camps, condoned torture, employed corporate armies, eliminated the right of habeas corpus, practiced extraordinary rendition, and believe me, this is only a partial list,” Lange said.

Lange asked the graduates, including her 22-year-old daughter Hannah Shepard, to commit themselves to the “pursuit of peace.”

    Jessica Lange has always been a flake. Haven’t heard from her is years; thought she was dead.

    I worked closely with her younger brother for awhile. He was a good guy. Played linebacker for North Dakota State or some other smallish school in the upper Midwest and wrecked his shoulder.

    He was working his way up the airline pilot ladder starting with the shit commuter operations. Think he finally got to Northwest after we parted.

    He didn’t talk much about his sister.

    Ms Lange like all of Hollywood’s finest will be on their knee in submission to Allah. The line will include many, Ms Lange daughters and grand daughters will wear a burka.

    I added some stuff that she forgot to say… it’s in parentheses.

    We are living in an America that, in the last seven and a half years, has waged an unnecessary war(to go after terrorists that would love to kill you.), established prison camps (to house these people that want to kill you), condoned torture (against people that want to kill you by pouring water on their heads! oh the horror!), employed corporate armies, eliminated the right of habeas corpus (which doesnt really apply to enemy combatants that don’t subscribe to the Geneva Convention), practiced extraordinary rendition, and believe me, this is only a partial list, (because I have to do more research about hating my country),” Lange said.

    Self-absorbed, has-been, liberal hollywood bitch. What else would you expect, especially when latest reports prove our forces are kicking ass!

    :roll: shes a loser like so many other lefty’s who say “no blood for Oil.” hey libtards if that is true maybe you can help us get rid of the laws that dont allow us to build refineries or drill for oil in our own country. I for one think it would be great if we could leave that cess pool in the middle east alone and allow them to bath in their oil without a single dollar from us, then perhaps they might look into other sectors to build their countries up.

    :mad:

  14. Mike in CA

    What is left to say that hasen’t been said yet?
    She made herself look smal except to her fellow liberals
    that she pandered to. I have to believe she knew what she was doing and said what she said to get the attention that she is STARVING for. :roll:

    bitch :shock:

    “You know I used to love her but it’s all over now.”

    So fine as Dwan in King Kong, a yum! Botox and begging to fit in with a crowd of losers has rotted what brain she had.

  16. Tom in CO

    ROFL what an idiot :D Thanks for continuing the true stereotype of dumb blonde!

  17. Tom1981

    Ms. Lange ought to take a few lessons from this brave marine and shut up!! (see article)

    To all those who’ve served our country or are serving now, we salute you :beer: Don’t listen to the likes of Ms. Lange. YOU’RE HEROES AND WE’RE PROUD OF YOU, YOUR SACRIFICES, AND YOUR SERVICE :!: :!: :!:

    Her contributions to the United States of America are many…to name a few:

    and….
    also…..
    plus…..
    including…..

    So there!!!

    Lay off her and Michelle!!

  19. Goodbye Natalie

    Makes me wish King Kong would have ripped her head off or thrown her off the Empire State Building instead of saving her…

    Jessica Lange was an up and coming dummy in 1977. Now she’s just a lib hag. Thirty years of leftist politics will do that to you.

  20. Dan (The Infidel)

    Just another Hollyweird witch with a broom. Just like most of the rest of Hollyweird and the left coast…just more bird shit and fools.

    She’s part of the Decadent Class - the intellectual dead weight that the rest of us drag along with us. She actually thinks she’s going to work “for the pursuit of peace”. Peace for whom, exactly? For herself? Because she’s already got that. She lives a shallow, decadent, self-serving and utterly peaceful lifestyle because other people far better than herself have dedicated themselves to making just such an existence available to her. And look at how she uses it! Hypocritical jackass. :mad:

    What is with university admin’s who think that getting some actress is going to inspire anything but a big ol bowel movement. When I finished my undergrad degree we had Edward James Olmos as our commencement speaker. I left there thinking I want that 30 minutes of my life back. It was empty pious platitudes about nothing. What a waste of time. Just because someone has been on TV doesn’t mean they have anything to say that’s relevant to real life.

    Note to aministrators and college presidents: just say no to actors/actresses, old pro athletes, musicians and anybody else who hasn’t really contributed to the great American experiment or made someone’s life, other than their own, better.

    A real star is the soldier of the 4th Infantry Division who poked his head into a hole on a farm near Tikrit, Iraq. He could have been met by a bomb or a hail of AK-47 bullets. Instead, he faced an abject Saddam Hussein and the gratitude of all of the decent people of the world. A real star is the U.S. soldier who was sent to disarm a bomb next to a road north of Baghdad. He approached it, and the bomb went off and killed him. A real star, the kind who haunts my memory night and day, is the U.S. soldier in Baghdad who saw a little girl playing with a piece of unexploded ordnance on a street near where he was guarding a station. He pushed her aside and threw himself on it just as it exploded. He left a family desolate in California and a little girl alive in Baghdad. The stars who deserve media attention are not the ones who have lavish weddings on TV but the ones who patrol the streets of Mosul even after two of their buddies were murdered and their bodies battered and stripped for the sin of trying to protect Iraqis from terrorists. We put couples with incomes of $100 million a year on the covers of our magazines. The noncoms and officers who barely scrape by on military pay but stand on guard in Afghanistan and Iraq and on ships and in submarines and near the Arctic Circle are anonymous as they live and die.” —Ben Stein

    I was going to say, what qualifies her to give a commencement speech, but her daughter goes there, so…Another clueless Hollywood actor who thinks being a narsistic self absorbed attention whore gives them some insight into life for the rest of the planet.

    Si Vi Pacem, Para Bellum. The ancient Greeks understood it, why can’t the left?

    Who Is Jessica Lange?, and why do I care?
    My son, a Medic with 2nd BN, 319FAR,82nd ABD was home for the weekend.

  27. Ed Stanowicz

    I called the College President’s office. I s/w a very nice woman, apparently a secretary. She informed me the woman responsible for inviting Lange for the commencement speech is no longer with the college. Still unforgiveable that the college would invite Lange to deliver such a hateful speech.
