STREISAND BLASTS BUSH; DECLARES FUTURE OF NATION HANGS IN BALANCE
SingerDirectorProducerMotherWifeCitizen Barbra Streisand turns political in an interview set to air just days before the US presidential election.
The session, taped with ABC's Barbra Walters, is in its finial editing stages and will be unleashed on Friday's 20/20 broadcast.
In the interview, according to sources, Streisand defends Bill and Hillary Clinton, blasts Republicans who impeached the president, and warns the nation that George W. Bush, if elected, would "reverse" progress made by women in the 20th Century.
"There is so much at stake!" Streisand declares on ABC.
It is not clear if ABCNEWS will offer the Bush campaign on-air time to respond to Streisand.

In recent weeks Streisand explained to her fans why they should vote for Gore:
"The first three reasons to vote for Al Gore are: The Supreme Court… The Supreme Court… The Supreme Court! Our whole way of life is at stake when you consider that the next President will make three or even four appointments during his term.
"I find it hard to believe that some people say there's no difference between the two parties in this election. I worry that people might not vote in their own self interest because they're fooled by empty words and false promises.
"I shudder when I think of how a more conservative court could put at risk all the things we hold dear: our civil rights, women's rights, disability rights, privacy rights, consumer rights, workers' rights and reproductive rights. I, for one, don't want to return to the days before Roe vs Wade, when women had no control over their own bodies!
"Let's face it, this is a war against bigotry, against discrimination of any kind, racial, religious or sexual orientation. We need justices who will insure our rights and not turn the clock back on decades of social progress.
"Another big reason to vote for Al Gore. There is no one stronger on the environment. I'm so fortunate to wake up every morning and look out over the Pacific Ocean. It looks so beautiful. And yet, it's frightening to think that so many beaches are closed due to contaminated water. Our coastal waters, our drinking water, the soil in which we grow our food, the very air we breathe - must be protected.
"Al Gore warned us about this years ago in his book where he talked about preserving our planet and keeping the earth in balance.
"He knows that we're being faced with what could be the greatest challenge of the 21st century: Global Warming - which many republican leaders dismiss as a myth…ignoring the overwhelming scientific evidence that there's a hole in the ozone layer…the ice caps are melting, the summers are getting hotter, winters more severe, then there's the rains, the floods, the fires, the hurricanes, the tornadoes, the bugs, the viruses…some myth.
"Our children and their children must not inherit the consequences of environmental neglect. We've made real progress in the last eight years, but not enough.
"Something else: Al Gore must be in the White House to protect us from the chemical industry polluters and the oil interests, whose profits have enriched Bush and Cheney at the expense of the American people.
"Look at what they've given Texas. It's true, the great state of Texas under the leadership of George W. Bush has ranked first in many things: it's first in toxic air pollution, first in water pollution, first in total residents without health insurance…first in number of gun shows…first in executions - he also took the largest surplus in Texas history and turned it into a budget shortfall by giving a massive tax cut to the wealthy at the expense of the most vulnerable.
"This is what George W. Bush did for Texas as Governor. Just think what he could do for America as President.
"We know what Bill Clinton and Al Gore did for America. They gave us the greatest expansion of economic prosperity in our lifetime. And while I'm not a gambler, this much I know….you don't change the dice when you're on a roll."
