[...] “[F]or the audacity with which it distorts reality to reveal a larger truth.” The “larger truth” presumably being (a) Arab Muslims are fall guys in the war on terror, (b) Bush needs to be shot in the chest at close range, (c) all of the above.(Source) [...]

Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean denounced distasteful campus recruiting tactics by an independent contractor hired by the College Republican National Committee. Among the offerings: a "catch an illegal immigrant" hide-and-seek game on campus, and a "fun with guns" BB-gun shooting gallery that featured cutouts of top Democrats, including Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y. Dean called the activity "divisive, potentially dangerous and discriminatory," and Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman agreed. But the agreement ended there. Conservative bloggers accused Dean of hypocrisy, arguing he got bent out of shape about the shoot-a-Democrat college game but had no objections to a new movie that depicts the fictional assassination of President Bush. The British-produced movie, "Death of a President," has just hit American shores. Pictures of the assassination scene are all over the Internet.

Hyporbole and hypocrisy...

Nothing political about their decision my backside- groups like this are always political.
And as for a “larger truth”- please. The only truth of any size they acknowledge is what they want to believe is true, the facts simply do not register if they’re not in accordance with leftist orthodoxy.

Sen. Clinton is trying to lift her entire party out of the moral latrine they find themselves in.

Wow, think about the implications of that statement … it’s Hillary trying to lift the dems out of the moral latrine.

Next up, we will have Bill Clinton trying to lift perpetually adulterous spouses out of their own moral latrine …

They are in trouble.

Have any of you seen the film? Or, as I suspect is the case, are you listening to the media’s description of the first thirty seconds of it? Do you know that it is about the assassin and not the assassination? What are you so upset about? The movie is a fictional account of a fictional event. Aren’t we spreading freedom around the world at the end of a gun barrel? Doesn’t that freedom include free speech…all speech? Even ignorant, inflammatory speech?

In all fairness, I’d be surprised if Hillary didn’t condemn this miserable film. She is, after all, the wife of a former president, whether you liked him or not. This movie would be wrong about any president, conservative or liberal, not matter how bad he might be.

Killing a president…

The horrific prospect makes one ill to contemplate. But, not only do some contemplate the notion, they even fantasize about the horrific prospect on film to the applause of an audience. This is the putrid political pablum of the ‘tolerant’ and ‘peac…

Silverstar beat me to the punch. I was going to recommend calling this little endeavor ‘The Vince Foster Story’.

Anyway, is anyone really really surprised that a group of Eurotrash gave an award to a film that is basically the wet dream of Eurotrash everywhere?

[...] No matter. As with images of George Bush being shot through the heart, it’s “larger truths” we’re after here. One such truth being that if your reality doesn’t have the reality-based seal of approval, you’d best wear Kevlar: The hysteria engendered by the series found more than one target. In addition to the death threats and hate mail directed at me, and my grotesque portrayal as a maddened right-winger, there developed an impassioned search for incriminating evidence on everyone else connected to the film. And in director David Cunningham, the searchers found paydirt! His father had founded a Christian youth outreach mission. The whiff of the younger Mr. Cunningham’s possible connection to this enterprise was enough to set the hounds of suspicion baying. A religious mission! A New York Times reporter wrote, without irony or explanation, that an issue that raised questions about the director was his involvement in his father’s outreach work. In the era of McCarthyism, the merest hint of a connection to communism sufficed to inspire dark accusations, the certainty that the accused was part of a malign conspiracy. Today, apparently, you can get something of that effect by charging a connection with a Christian mission. [...]

Anybody want to finance a film in which a Democrat of some higher political power level gets snuffed? — and the plot turns out to have been hatched by another Democrat?

Please, boys and girls, leave this to the likes of: DU, KOS, HuffPo, the BBC, those in Toronto and a few ‘artists’.

If not, we can’t criticize them any longer and the voters will not have a choice.

As ugly as the sight is, it’s a good thing when liberals reveal themselves and their agenda. They talk “peace” but we know they really mean submission; they talk “tolerance” but we know they’d really like to see the president dead. For voters, it’s a matter of truth in advertizing.

This may be the Rovian side of the Hidlebeast, it is classic lefty tactic to create the problem and then offer their solution,which usually only serves to make things worse.But then they are holding the reigns and they are loathe to let go.

Bah

Ann Coulter summed it up pretty well in Slander: basically the media world is a lot of morons telling each other how smart they are. They don’t have to be smart or make sense; as long as they call each other smart the illusion remains. Evidently some papers went as far as to postulate that Algore was too smart; maybe his genius would be beyond the accessibility of Joe Everyman.

Hmmm, I can picture it now. Only, let's make it dozens of victims! It has to do with former President Clinton and the former First Lady Hillary Clinton's body count. It would be an easy script since most of the work is already done. We could call it "Sudden Death Syndrome" : or, "How I learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Clinton's". yyyeah baby! shagidelic!
