I actually appreciated the fact that they left out 911. I thought it showed some class. I usually don't get caught up in family drama, but if there is any truth to this "poppy" stuff, I am going to have a real guffaw. I liked how George Senior was played as a real leader, and somehow jr. could never measure up. I totally see that in real life. I also never knew that Bush lost an election early on, and I still need to see if there is any truth to it.

Not that I believe for one minute he actually memorized the names of everyone at his sorority house. The automatic shoe-in is more believable.

One thing the film inspired for me was pity. If only for a couple of hours I felt sorry for W. That is movie magic I did not expect, and could not keep myself from doing. I feel my suspension of disbelief is appalling in that regard. I just could not stop myself.

I think it's a good watch. I think it's strange that people here "couldn't be paid to watch it". Considering what they are willing to watch on the average. huh. Quirky. Must be "election and vote cellar". "version 2008."
