The British Film Portraying Bush's Assassination: Apparently Some Fictions Are More Acceptable Than Others

All the hue and cry the last few days about this Brit-produced film which is supposed to portray the fictional (obviously!) ass-asination of President Bush strikes me as pretty damned stupid.

First, it's FICTION. For slow learners, FICTION is NOT meant to be treated as factual (except when the Bushies' release such as reports; example: "The war in Iraq is doing just peachy!").

Second, the Bushies are just FINE with fictional portrayals like that awful film on one of the cable channels after 9/11 that portrayed Bush as this great smart, sensitive man who, so worried about the American public on 9/11, that he tried to fight his Secret Service people to defy his own safety to be with and protect his citizens. ::barf::

Third, I'm sure the Bushies had a hand in the 9/11 movie coming up on ABC in which they put the entire blame for 9/11 not even on Osama bin Laden (or in Bush's case, Osama been Forgotten) but on.. oh yes... Bill Clinton. I mean, this week we even heard about Bill Clinton was responsible for the poor Katrina response even though it happened YEARS after he left office. At this rate, I fully expect to hear how Clinton is also responsible for Lincoln's assassination as well as that of Archduke Ferdinand AND John Lennon.

Fourth, this is an administration that is just FINE with threatening the lives of other leaders and leaving rather blunt suggestions out there some "hero" might want to take one or more of them out. Examples: Kim Jong Il. Ahmadinejad. Aristide. Saddam Hussein. Fidel Castro. Hugo Chavez (whom Bush DID try to take out with that silly coup). And that's just to name a few.

And fifth? Bite me.
