This country was never in shambles. We have not fought hard enough against this myth.

Bush was not the cause of our economic problems but he did play a key role in solving them. Obama must not be allowed to blame Bush any longer.

We are in much worse shape today.

This is actually good. We need people like Oliver Stone to see clearly what's happening. If they voted for him, they should pay. Not class envy. Just consequences

Bush tried to moderate the problem, although he could have tried harder. It was primarily due to government coercion of banks to make formerly redlined loans, enabled by the Fed and Fan/Fred. And dumb investors who bought those toxic CMOs.

Stone should talk.

Well, Oliver. You wanted him as POTUS, you got him.

Oliver Stone finally comes around. Well, these morons will reap what they have sown; they fell in love with the scary man, 0bama. As far as everyone blaming Bush, history will right this misjudgment. The truth is, Barney Frank, Dodd, and 0bama's likes forced banks to loan to people with no money, no jobs and no way to pay the mortgage. Bush tried on several occasions to stop this stupidity. But the democrats kept peddling the stuff, and then the Lehman Brothers and Goldman Sachs packaged all this bad debt into bundles that they sold knowingly to unsuspecting buyers. So put the blame right square where it belongs, 0bama, first, then Barney Frank and the democrat lawmakers. This is a tragedy that will unfold for years, and yet, most of the morons cannot even see this coming. Scary !!!! Ollie, you should be terrified.

Good grief!!!! Those Hollyweird people are just plain schitzoid! I thought Stone thought the sun rose and set at Barack's behest. They're like spoiled kids, whine and pester til they get what they want then throw it down and whine for something else. Well, tough rockos Stoney boy,you got what you wanted now deal with it!

In certain ways? In almost every way he made it worse.

Stone has a new book to sell. That is all you need to know about Oliver.

Oliver Stone would see a conspiracy at a junior high bake sale.

Just because an insane man agrees with you on a given day doesn't mean he's worthy of attention.

I will not be fooled into buying Stone's book. No $ from me.

Join the crowd, Oliver. (But, if my memory serves me, didn't you vote for him, once upon a time?)

Once upon a time, like last Tuesday? Yeah, whatever Oliver.

If Oliver "I've never met a dictator I didn't like" Stone says he finds Obama scary, then that means something!!!!

Oh, what a load of B.S. Last month he was pimping this piece of horse manure in a silk suit. And he still is. Read it.
Two things.
One, Stone thinks by ascribing ''scary'' to Obama, he builds on Obama's new image as the ''badass'' who killed Bin Laden, and who is morally and ethically superior enough to be capable of handling wisely any precedents he may put in action.

Thing 2 - the only ''scary'' thing Stone is even pretending to be worried about is the possibility that these powers could, through actions of 'unwise' voters sometime in the future fall into the hands of a president who is not nearly so strong and wise as Barack Obama.
What a joke, non-story, and less than subtle hymn to Obama this ridiculous excuse for an interview is! Stone is just one more celebritrash Obama worshipper thinking himself far more clever than he is.

"This is actually good. We need people like Oliver Stone to see clearly what's happening"


---Maybe I'm just a cynic, but it's been a while since Stone had a hit movie...what better way than to throw a "bone" to get positive feedback, and magically he probably has a movie coming out?

Couldn't give a crap about what Oliver Stone thinks about anything, even if he happens to be right by accident. I wouldn't even open the article to find out the basis for his belief.

I'm sure this pothead sixties leftover voted for him anyway. If he did, he deserves all the scary he gets.

Did you read the article? Oliver Stone thinks Obama is scary because he sees Obama doing the same kinds of military strikes/policies as the really scary "Bush and Reagan" people.

All these headlines about various celebs who are "disappointed" or whatever with Obama is because he hasn't been LEFT enough. They will never, ever, EVER, vote for a Republican over a Democrat.

Mr. Stone, we finally agree on something...So Do I, too bad all of the American Sheeple that voted for him haven't awaken yet!

When a proven socialist is scared... then maybe we have hope. Stone adores Hugo...

Maybe Stone will make a movie about a mad dictator who maintains an int'l kill list.

Hollywood may have been given the edict they can only produce films or tv shows that have been cleared by the WH. Chickens come home to roost.

I find him putrid.

First thing Stone's said that I can recall agreeing with -- I find Obama scary, too.

But I still remember swearing Stone would never see another fraction of a cent from me after I saw 'JFK' in the theater. (Ugly and irresponsible were the two nicest things I could think of to say about it.)

So he could say today that he thinks Obama is evil, and even that wouldn't motivate me to give him the benefit of the doubt again.

Who cares what a movie director thinks?

Obama is scary, but then so is Oliver Stone.
