We knew that already from his decision to take nude photographs of his girlfriend’s teenage stepdaughter, to whom he has been married now for a dozen years because, hey, who else would have him after that. But what till you read what the slimeball has said about 9/11 — remarks that suggest Karl Rove was going too easy on some left-liberals. ” “As a filmmaker, I’m not interested in 9/11,” he told Der Spiegel, according to my newspaper’s <a href=

“http://www.nypost.com/gossip/pagesix_u.htm”>Page Six. “It’s too small, history overwhelms it. The history of the world is like: He kills me, I kill him, only with different cosmetics and different castings. So in 2001, some fanatics killed some Americans, and now some Americans are killing some Iraqis. And in my childhood, some Nazis killed Jews. And now, some Jewish people and some Palestinians are killing each other. Political questions, if you go back thousands of years, are ephemeral, not important. History is the same thing over and over again.”

I love the idea that 9/11 is “too small” a subject for him. As compared to what? Some Upper East Side New Yorkers picking lint out of their navels?
