During Saturday's Independent Spirit Awards, America Ferrera, who plays Betty on ABC's Ugly Betty sitcom, joked that America won't be free until 2008 when Bush is gone.
Zach Braff: You know America, here’s a little interesting tidbit you probably don’t know about me. My middle name is Israel. We’re both named after countries.
America Ferrera: Wow, that is interesting.
Braff: So do you think that you have any traits in common with the country that is your namesake?
Ferrera: Well, you know, I mean I guess I’m a free-spirited person and America’s supposedly the ‘land of the free,’ right?
Braff: Well, I guess...
Ferrera: Or at least we will be in 2008.
