'George Bush Is An Intellectual Compared To Her'

Not a single day can go by without the ritual Palin bashing. Of course this comes from one of those intellectual titans in Hollywood, naturally.
The red carpet was rolled out Tuesday night for the blue state premiere of Oliver Stone's "W." - the controversial biopic of President Bush.

Two big-name politicos - John McCain and Sarah Palin - declined a personal invite from the director, even though they're staying right across the street from the Ziegfeld Theatre at the Hilton.

Stone said he extended invites to the Republican presidential and vice presidential nominees yesterday morning - but they opted for a fund-raiser instead.

That was just fine with the Bush-bashing director, who seems to despise Palin even more.

"I don't think Sarah would understand the picture," Stone said on the red carpet outside the famed W. 54th St. theater.

"It has a lot of complicated dialogue," he zinged.

"George Bush is an intellectual compared to her."

Stone insists "W." is not an attack on the commander in chief.

"It's very fair. It's based on a lot of research. It was not done with malice," Stone said.

Some of the flick's stars actually think that Stone, who also directed "JFK" and "Nixon," wasn't hard enough on Bush.

"It isn't Bush bashing, but it should be," said Richard Dreyfuss, who portrays Vice President Cheney. "He will have a long and healthy life and hopefully spend most of it in depositions. Hopefully, history will be unforgiving."
These are very ugly people.

Shocking, isn't it, that McCain and Palin turned down invitations? I'm sure they'd have been treated kindly.

They'll have the last laugh when this movie tanks at the box office.
