Grover Norquist takes role (as a wino) in next ‘Atlas Shrugged’ movie

Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform, in his cameo role as a wino in “Atlas Shrugged: Part 2.” He’s got his own caption idea — what’s yours? (Justin M. Lesniewski )


Grover, we’re worried. This photo we’ve obtained of you — bleary, boozy, disheveled. It doesn’t look good. Want to tell us what’s going on here?

“Acting!” declared Grover Norquist, doing his best Jon Lovitz-as-master-thespian imitation.

Indeed: The conservative anti-tax activist was acting! — in, of all things, the next chapter of the big-screen adaptation of Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged.”

Norquist, 55, told us he was headed out to L.A. last week for a talk show appearance when the movie’s producers suggested he stop by the set to take a cameo role. Technically, he says, he was just an extra — “meaning you don’t talk, therefore you’re not part of the Screen Actors Guild, therefore they don’t have union problems” with the off-the-books casting.

6. Wino in a fresh/new suit and tie?

Maybe he plays a wino on his first day of being a wino?

7. The director told him to imagine Obama has just been re-elected, ...

the Democrats have a super majority in both houses and all the conservatives on the Supreme Court are on a hunting trip with Dick Cheney.

12. Beha-a-a-a-a-ave yourself!

As long as Grover's willing to keep doing what he's doing for money, there will always be a twenty on the dresser every morning for him. But that photo! Do I smell Oscar?

14. If Grover's involved, I smell something.

15. If the smell of "Oscar" is mouthwash filtered through a piece of whitebread, then yes.

16. The biggest problem with that movie...

is that everyone in it drank like a fish, but the audience--who really NEEDS to be tanked to thoroughly appreciate that shitty movie--isn't allowed a drop.
