James Brolin Wishes Everyone A ‘Happy 9/11′ - PIC

Barbra Streisand’s husband, James Brolin, went on a radio show in New Haven Tuesday to promote his movie, “The Hunting Party”. When hosts Chaz and AJ noted that it was the sixth anniversary of the attacks on the World Trade Center, James said, “Right, oh, yeah, Happy 9/11!”

Chaz, now horrified, responded, “Well, that’s kind of a weird thing to say.” But James didn’t stop, saying, “Ha, ha, ha! I hear silence.” Still pissed, Chaz explained, “Yeah, well, we’re right outside of New York, and I know people who lost family members, so . . . we don’t say, ‘Happy 9/11′ around here.”

But James wouldn’t give it up. “Celebrate the day, right?” He then tried to cover up his stupidity by calling it a “horrible situation”, but Chaz cut him off, noting “I think you’d be better off talking about this movie.”

The phone lines were tied up for days with callers ripping James’ insensitivity, but James’ manager insists he wasn’t making fun. He “was horrified by it. It was an off-the-cuff remark.”

Wow. What a dipshit. Here’s the audio.
