I am going to try to type in the link here to get a transcript of the show so that you can all read Melissa's comments. You will have to scroll down to her interview.

Thanks, Carol, the link worked. What I had seen was the part of the show with the Melissa interview, but not all the others. Interesting reading. After re-reading Melissa's interview it came across to me that she was commenting on an actor who had criticized Bush and was in danger of losing work because his comments were considered unacceptable by some people in Hollywood. Since Melissa is a polite person as far as I can see I think she would not publicly bash any president (or anyone), but she was defending the actor's right to criticize without fear of losing work, as had happened to many in Hollywood during the McCarthy era.
Since the first George (Washington) people have criticized presidents, and I assume they always will. :)
