Two different perspectives on Dubya Bush: One guy who thinks he's great and that America should Go ahead and attack the people allied against us. Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Libya - I don't care who they are and a more sceptical one about what a fictionalised movie involving the current US administration is doing coming out in an election year.
A copy of the script obtained by The Globe and Mail reveals a prime-time drama starring a nearly infallible, heroic president with little or no dissension in his ranks and a penchant for delivering articulate, stirring, off-the-cuff addresses to colleagues.
My only question is why didn't Bush think of this sooner? He could have had a whole stream of TV movies come out in the week before the first election, a dramatic retelling of that interview where he's quizzed on the names of the leaders of foreign countries for example, a little rejigging of the script and not only does he know all their names but he also offers a keen and insightful analysis of the political system of each of their countries. Maybe then he might have actually won that election.
