It's Our Fault....Again

The blame America first crowd has inducted a brand new member and she's also from Hollywood......go figure.

A city councilman today demanded a public apology from actress Maggie Gyllenhaal for remarks she made suggesting the U.S. bears some responsibility for the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks on the World Trade Center.

I think what's good about the movie is that it deals with 9/11 in such a subtle, open way that I think it allows it to be more complicated than just, 'Oh, look at these poor New Yorkers and how hard it was for them,'" Gyllenhaal said in red carpet comments Friday to cable channel NY1.

"Because I think America has done reprehensible things and is responsible in some way and so I think the delicacy with which it's dealt allows that to sort of creep in," she said.

Her and Churchill are singing out of the same songbook; They can tour a Marxist version of "Beauty and the Beast" maybe call it Batty and the Crapweasel.

Update: In the biggest "no-suprise" of the day....Gyllenhaal refuses apology about 9/11 comment, more here
