Bill Clinton reccomended a GREAT movie to me!

[romantico]

Well,not to JUST me.A few weeks back a list was released w/ all the President's favorite movies they asked to see while at the White Hosue. Dumbya picked "Saving Private Ryan", & "Black Hawk Down" (while we ALL know how much he loves Austin Powers & the Porky's movies) Clinton chose "High Noon" a movie I had never seen before.

Last night I rented it & LOVED IT! One of the best films I have seen.Not a big Gary Cooper fan, but this film rocked!The song at the begining just sent chills down my spine.The suspense was awesome, Grace Kelly was as hot as ever & I was introduced to a Mexican actress who was just BEAUTIFUL (forgot her name but she was married to Ernest Bornine for a while)

Good Pick Big Dog!

1. Bush Really Picked Those Movies?

Dead American soldiers in both, aren't there? Spooky.

I did manage to find Bush's unedited draft of his favorite movies, before Vice President Cheney made some revisions. Here's the original list:

10. Texas Chainsaw Massacre: A soothing movie with inspiring lessons for high productivity capital punishment.

9. Debbie Does Dallas: Celebrates a positive female role model as she screws ordinary Americans who don't seem to mind.

8. Left Behind: Kirk Cameron explores The Rapture in this high budget fundamentalist flick.

7. Powderpuff Girls: The Movie: A thought provoking movie with deep intellectual exploration of the role of girls in society.

6. From Justin to Kelly: One of the finest romantic films of all time, with the American Idol stars.

5. Birth of a Nation: Helps a president better understand U.S. history and the proper role of negroes...I mean, African Americans...in society.

4. The Jazz Singer: The first "talkie," with terrific blackface performances by the incomparable Al Jolson.

3. Oliver: Like many other films on this list, plenty of music to keep a president humming. Shows how much happier poor kids are without government assistance.

2. Annie: A philanthropist who earned his money through wise investments in the military-industrial complex, Daddy Warbucks, adopts an adorable child from a respectable private orphanage. This film implicitly decries the horrors of government funded foster care. (However, although we're not quite sure, and we'd like to think otherwise, many children are left behind.)

1. Red Dawn: Ordinary Americans fight Soviet ground invaders in this neo-con cult classic. Demonstrates the power and performance of a privatized military, and recognizes the right of every American to carry concealed grenade launchers.

2. you know seeing those two movies made me more dovish than hawkish

Seeing Omaha Beach I get all senstive Shrub sees Omaha Beach "Can we privatize that"

6. Probably heard on many nights in the WH

"Unka Dick, can we watch the Omaha Beach invasion again?"

It wouldn't surprise me if Dumbya has a version of the invasion part of Saving Private Ryan with his face superimposed over Tom Hanks's.
