So James Woods is calling Bernie a utter moron.......

Actor James Woods, who frequently gets political on his Twitter account, called out Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders on Monday for a tweet about China.

Sanders tweeted, "China -- not exactly seen as a model when it comes to human rights -- provides 14 weeks of paid maternity leave. The US provides zero."

Woods responded within a few hours: "China has notoriously killed female infants for population control, you utter moron. #ChinaGendercide"

Sanders did not respond to Woods' tweet on either his senatorial account or his presidential Twitter accounts. In his senator bio, it says that tweets signed by "-B" are from the senator and the rest are from his staff. His tweet about China was not signed.

After that tweet to Sanders, Woods wrote on Twitter, "Basically Bernie is this commie scarecrow put up to make Hillary look palatable by comparison, right? There is no other rationale possible."

Woods, who best known for his roles in movies such as "Casino," "Nixon" and most recently, "White House Down," frequently tweets critiques about the Democratic presidential candidates, especially the party's front-runner, Hillary Clinton. He is also not a fan of President Barack Obama, calling him "the worst president in history."

Woods sounds like a drunken fool that follows the party of no ideas, no answers, and has only FEAR to offer.

As much as a nutter as he is there, I'm surprised he has a career beyond it.

Actor James Woods is dating a woman nearly 50 years younger who was recently arrested for felony drug possession.
Woods, 66, walked the red carpet at the premiere of his latest movie White House Down with Kristen Bauguess on Tuesday night just weeks after her brush with the law.
According to Radar Online, Kristen, 20, was arrested in Chatham County, Georgia on June 8 on suspicion of two felonies and three misdemeanors according to court records.

The charges were possession of marijuana and possession of a controlled substance, both a felony.
She's also been arrested for speeding, failure to register an automobile and switching licence tags to mislead.
The pair have also shared embarrassing Tweet exchanges, including: 'love you the mostest!!! from here and the slightly more accurate, 'Love you more.'
He recently split from 26-year-old Ashley Madison after a seven year relationship.
The Oscar-nominated actor, who began dating Ashley when she was just 19, confirmed the split to the National Enquirer.
'We've gone our separate ways but I will always love her,' he said.

. . . that Carly Failurina has a campaign film, that James Woods is narrating it or that he's calling her campaign "historic".

And Bernie Sanders is the moron here?

James Woods is not only a Red Baiter, he's a skeevy grosso who dates girls that are my KID'S age. Just EWWWWWWWW, dude. That'd be like my 67 year old dad hitting on my future daughter in law or something. Likely because women his own age see him for the nasty Republicreeper that he is.

Uh, the presidency isn't some entry-level job. I guess by "historic," Woods is trying to find out how deep the stupid goes among Republican voters. It's pretty deep, James, but there are some things you just have to see for yourself.

..."makes a fuck of a lot more money than you do with your purported critical thinking skills" after I wrote that Woods has the critical thinking skills of a carrot. The poster then went on to point out that lots of "leftard" actors use their fame to make political points, too. Obviously even carrot-tier critical thinking is a bit much for some...
