Is Douglas' beard growing down or his chest hair up?

Yeah, that helped Kerry so much in 2004.

So Michael Douglas and the Brangelinas go to an economic summit.

Why do I get the feeling that neither of them could give you a working definition of supply and demand, or inflation or anything else about economics?

Sorry, but Douglas, Bono, and Joline who likes to break up marriages lack credibility.

Somebody should tell him: Don't overestimate 'star' power!

Or intellect. From what I've seen the combined IQ in the Hollyweird crowd is about 47.....

It is not about just acting and being a star. I think the successful actors and actresses in politics are those who have had actual life experience. Reagan as president of the SAG or Ahrnold's "imigrant success" story.

The left is more about "I am entitled" or more "LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME LOOOOKATME" egomania performers.

Just think. That scruffy-bearded liberal jerk is borking what is likely FR's most 'img src'ed hot female. LOL

Maybe what the Summit needed was to "listen" to a bunch of gals from Hooters and Porn Stars.

Geez, can politicals and "statesmenship" get anymore shallow?

that covers a broad spectrum

Lessee..we have the liberals, the leftists, the socialists, the Human Extinction Movement, NAMBLA, NOW, the Trotskyites and the Stalinists.

That sounds pretty inclusive and tolerant to me. ;-)

It looks like he's trying to hide some of the scars from his facelift with his beard.

The World Economic Forum holds a mini-meeting at the Dead Sea, in the month of May. This is to concentrate on the Middle East, and to “seize the moment” — to take advantage of the healthful disruptions that President Bush has started.

Thanks

Too bad there's no detective following politicians around at Davos. Oh, forgot about the PAPARAZZI!

As a result of too many face-lifts Douglas' chest hair is now on his chin.

It's not chest hair it's pubic and that is not his nose.
