It debuted tonight on Channel 4 in the UK. Think British lefties were excited? Front page of today’s London Paper:
Our pal kasper kasper has already ‘Tubed the moment of truth for posterity. With the possible exception of Colbert bombing at the correspondents dinner, it represents the absolutely zenith of nutroots porn. Keith Olbermann, eat your heart out:

What’s with the jump by the secret service agent on to the shooter? What a Mary.

If I did a film about killing a DemonRat Presidential candidate I could call it art? I think I got the name of the movie I’ll call it “Death of a Female Senator who dresses in pant suits and has large Birthing Hips”
OK! OK! I got to work on the title. But it’s based on a rush to judgment. You see a White Christian male is first accused and the public lionizes him and makes him a hero.
But they are wrong; it’s the Senators 2 timing Husband who did it. Still working on the ending…… I’ll get back to you.

Is Gabriel DeRange-ed beyond clueless or what? Balanced? Not biased?
While I commend those theaters that will not show it, part of me hopes it is released in just enough places in this country so that everybody gets a look at how deranged the left really is.

To add to todays’s sadness and madness it seems Bethany is to sick to do realVerse this week….Nuclear Bombs, Presidential snuff films, no Bethany….could today get any worse….

He said the movie is a statement about a rush to judgement. Maybe I am missing something, but where has this been a problem on the right? Does he mean accusing Vice President Cheney of leaking a CIA employee’s identity, or accusing the Speaker of the House of prior knowledge of a Congressman’s lewd IMs, or accusing the VP of being drunk and shooting his hunting pal? Is that the sort of thing he means? Or is he talking about judging President Bush as the worst president ever, before his term is complete and history plays out? I am confused.
From what I know of his film, it is assumed that the shooter is a muslim fanatic when the “big twist” in the story is that it was the father of a soldier that was killed in the war in Iraq. On what basis does he have that the FBI, CIA, Secret Service, etc. would automatically assume it was a muslim and not follow through with forensics and evidence e.g. do their jobs. Sounds like he is rushing to judgement on a scenario that he made up. What a waste.

I applaud the theaters that are boycotting this film.
Unfortunately, here in Austin, TX, I am sure some of them will show it – to the moonbat’s delight.
The Brits call US crass?

Still got his hair parted on the wrong side in the still pic.

6 July, 1946 – Tonight 9PM
Is that a macabre headstone they’re divining? Sick bastards!
There will be unintended consequences of this movie, and if they put it out prior to the elections, it will be a landslide victory for the Republicans. Despite the BDS hyperventilation, I think the memory of Reagan and Kennedy will have an eerie effect on everyone – and nobody will like it.

That’s an interesting thought, MsU. I hope you’re right.

He couldn’t keep a straight face when he said “I don’t think channel 4 has a political agenda”. He was smirking, not believing what he was saying…
Only the deranged Fahrenheit-crowd could savour this.

My first assumption of the shooter would be a rabid left winger, probably a member of moveon or a student who had been influenced by a Ward Churchill type professor.

Now we know that killing Bush is “balanced”. At least this is the Left being honest, like Ted Turner admitting he can’t choose sides against an Islamofascist aggressor. I far prefer this kind of honesty from the Left – disgusting as it reveals them to be – to their saccharine lies about “supporting the troops” and “defending the nation” bla bla.

Here’s some more recent Democrat hate and unhingedness for you… from ‘04 “Presidential” candidate John Kerry.
JOHN KERRY JOKINGLY THREATENS TO KILL GEORGE W. BUSH?
Wild Bill has the details (originally from Bill Maher’s show). 1:08 into the video, in response to a Maher statement about “killing two birds with one stone” that had nothing to do with President Bush, John Kerry says:
What the heck is that?
I think it’s worth a standalone post and a f’ng apology. Apologize for my French. I’m Canadian.

Allahpundit, I can’t believe how much your reporting skills are slipping – Keith Olbermann doesn’t have a heart.
theholyhermit on October 10, 2006 at 3:55 AM
Christoph, thanks for the link on ‘hot air talking about itself’ – it is incredible. In spite of it all, we still made the right choice in 2004, given the two we had.
Entelechy on October 10, 2006 at 4:15 AM
You know what I find possibly MORE disturbing than the movie. Fine it is a psycho left snuff film. But then on the news interview, the ACTUAL news they put up a huge photo of the President with crosshairs on him! What is up with that?
mdconservative on October 10, 2006 at 12:45 PM
mdconservative, I had the same reaction at first. But I think it’s a photo of one of the theater posters, not something the news artists put together. A tiny bit of mitigation, perhaps.
