Stars Get Jitters Over Bush Bash...

WASHINGTON - There's no people like show people - mostly die-hard Democrats - so a lot of folks were holding their noses yesterday as they prepared to attend President Bush's cocktail party at the White House for the Kennedy Center Honors.

I get a kick out of hearing a bunch of people who spend their entire lives pretending to be someone else, criticize someone who actually is someone. All of 'em have something to say and the worse are usually the loudest.

"That's the lowest thing on my list," 'Glenn Close told me at a preshow brunch at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel here...'

There's someone who really should speak up! Glen Close, that is!

The first time I remember seeing her, she was in an elevator on her knees giving someone else's husband, Michael Douglas, a blow job. Now she's criticizing W's cocktail party! Go figure!

Later...
