Am watching "Primary Colors". Damn good movie, even for someone who thinks Clinton was one of the best damn presidents we ever had (I seem to remember making a lot of money, having damn good healthcare, not having half of my friends getting shot at in foreign countries for no reason, and my gas being insanely cheap). The movie's good, but I take issue with Billy Bob Thorton's character being such a prick. He's supposedly playing a character based on James Carville, and for the most part lands it, but Carville's no fool. He's arguably the most brilliant Democrat of the last thirty years or more. Essentially he's the Karl Rove of the Democrats, but he doesn't rely on dirty politics to win races.
Oh, and by the way, I firmly believe Karl Rove to be the mother fucking anti-christ. For as much as I blast Bush, he is still, for the most part, just a patsy with Karl Rove's hand up his ass. The thing is, Karl Rove's campaign tactics are beyond dirty - they're just fucking wrong. Barely legal, but that's beside the point, as the legality of anything in this day and age is questionable. He's just a dirty fighter with absolutely no sense of right and wrong.

i just saw the most hilarious fucking thing. Pres. Bush was at some kind of benefit for tsunami relief with George HW Bush and Clinton, and he's talking about the benefit and forgot what it was called, while holding up a book with the name of the benefit on it, and stops in midsentence, stumbles with his words for a minute, then turns the book around to read it aloud. I know we all have brain farts sometimes, but that's still fucking hilarious. Whatever your political leaning, that's some classic shit!
