Actor James Woods: 'People Lock Their Car Doors When Obama Walks By...They're Afraid He'll Tax Them to Death' By Noel Sheppard Created 07/20/2013 - 12:41pm
Emmy Award-winning actor James Woods had some harsh words for the President Friday.
Shortly after Barack Obama finished his address concerning race and the George Zimmerman verdict - which included comments about people locking their car doors when black men walk by - Woods tweeted, "The only reason people lock their car doors when Obama walks by is they are afraid he'll tax them to death":
Just curious. Does the President of the United States have any advice for other teenage boys in America? Wounded warriors, for example... — James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) July 19, 2013
ALL youth of every heritage in this country would benefit from jobs and manageable student loans, NOT a bloated Welfare State — James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) July 19, 2013

Woods continued his rant Saturday:
Racial integration has worked in the Armed Forces because everyone has a job, gets training in a skill, and MUST respect the rank of others — James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) July 20, 2013
The race issues in America that have bedeviled this nation for decades could be greatly resolved with JOBS and EDUCATION and SKILLS TRAINING — James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) July 20, 2013
Respect comes from personal industry and achievement. A common goal to rebuild the country, like the WPA and CCC, could do wonders. — James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) July 20, 2013
For those unfamiliar with Woods, his breakout role was in 1979's "The Onion Field" for which he received his first Golden Globe nomination.
He then starred in Sergio Leone's spectacular "Once Upon a Time in America" followed by Oliver Stone's "Salvador" and "Nixon."
He has won three Emmy Awards for made for television movies "Promise" and "My Name Is Bill W.," and for the animated series Hercules.
His voice has also appeared on Family Guy and The Simpsons.

Who can forget Woods and Debby Harry in “Videodrome?”
BTW, Wikipedia has a very extensive page on him. He didn’t finish at MIT, he dropped out to pursue acting.
The most recent piece of news I saw about him was a picture with his new girlfriend, who is 20 years old. He recently broke up with his long-term squeeze of seven years (she’s 26). Woods is 66.
Way to go, guy!
Woods reported some middle eastern men acting suspiciously on a flight he was on, but the FBI didn’t take it seriously. A few weeks later 9/11 happened. Later he identified a couple of the terrorists as the ones he had reported on.
Yep, hope he socked lots of money away.
Robo-cop?
"Shark" was one of the few recent TV drama series we could stand. It was very well written and interesting so of course it only last two seasons.
I had no idea..so damn, 9/11 could have been prevented if the FBI had just listened to James Woods
sfl
I am sure James Woods is quite conservative but does not flaunt it since he has to work in Hollywood. Libertarian too. He went to MIT and has a very high IQ
Besides the films cited in the article, he was in a movie titled “Cohn”, about Roy Cohn, Joe McCarty’s driviing force of McCarthy-ism. Interesting movie.

Hilarious. James Woods is cool, bro.

Some of each. Libertarianism has some good ideas but taken as a whole philosophy, a life philosophy, it becomes loony
James Woods seems to think that 26 years old is too old to be his girlfriend. After his last left him a few months ago (After 6 years, age 26) his new girlfriend is also 20.
Don’t give this guy too much respect.
“Well, his career is over.”
I do not believe that. Jon Voight was asked in a TV interview about concerns of new acting jobs after making conservative statements. He said that he was not worried about any new acting jobs because ‘there are plenty of conservative producers and directors in Hollywood.’ They simply are not as outspoken and vile as those on the left.
His RACE!!!!
He's NOT BLACK!

You are kidding. Kilmeade seems to have trouble reading a teleprompter. LOL
