Baldwin: "..Chicken-bleep Democrats in the Senate."

Stars say Dems' flop on Alito courts disaster

The Democrats better get it together. Even Hollywood's most ardent Bush-bashers think the party can't marshal its forces. Alec Baldwin is appalled that Sen. Ted Kennedy and other liberals could muster only 25 of the 41 votes needed for a filibuster to block Samuel Alito's Supreme Court confirmation.

The problem, he told us at Tuesday's meeting of the Oxonian Society, is the number of "chicken-bleep Democrats in the Senate. We have a bunch of budding Zell Millers down there," referring to the crusty Georgia senator who backed the Republican agenda in 2004. Although that was almost two years ago, Baldwin says, "I loathe and despise him on a daily basis."

Meanwhile, Meryl Streep needs a dose of Prozac. "I'm so demoralized," she told us at the Broadway opening of Sarah Jones' brilliant "Bridge and Tunnel."

Streep has yet to be inspired by any of the likely Democratic presidential candidates. Her requirements are simple. "I want a candidate to come out of nowhere and have no conflicts," the Oscar winner joked. "I want major campaign reform. I want Jesus to come back and throw the money lenders out."

Turning serious, Streep revealed she has a nephew in the military who's bound for Iraq. "Everybody in the administration should have a kid in that conflict," she said. "Then they'll know how they feel about it."

1. I wish, Ms Streep. Listening now to Kit Bonds in committee
He has a son in Iraq and couldn't BE more willing to cast aside all accountability, or swear allegiance to every bush whim.
