James Woods says sorry...

TO FOX NEWS.

He said, he souldve done their show, because they arent liberal lap dogs.

He then said, his anti Obama comments are keeping him from getting work.

Maybe, its his lack of talent that keeps him from getting work.

because the idea that rich producers (many of them conservative) aren't going to throw an actor a bone just because of his dingbat political beliefs is just an excuse. The shit head should pull himself up by his bootstraps and quit making excuses.

don't care for his politics, but enjoy his movies.

couple of Emmy's
nominated for many more Emmy's
couple of Academy Award nominations

he has just reached the age where roles are far and few between. It happens to just about every actor and actress. They peak in their 30's to late 40's and it just becomes rare to get a role. The sad thing is he blames his politics. Voight still gets roles and he is just as conservative.
