President Bush Assassinated in Movie
http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/article-23365246-details/
President+Bush+assassinated+in+new+TV+docudrama/article.do 

It should be done with a fictional character.  They can make
him as close in appearance to Bush as they wish and call him
Shrub, but I don't think movie images depicting the
assassination of any sitting American president are
appropriate......It`s a little scary for me....and I`m
fearless

1. Also, I think, illegal in this country.
But I wouldn't be surprised if this was boffo box office overseas.

3. Does it cross a line of "free speech?"
If it's not advocating violence?

2. Agreed
I don't want him dead. I'm a pacifist and don't want him to be a maryter. Being tried at The Hague is a lot more about justice.

7. Exactly
I want to see Bush doing the perp walk. My greatest fear is that he'll "pull a Ken Lay" before he has to answer for his crimes.

4. I heard about this on the local right-wing talk station this am and...
They said "check out Democratic Underground today - there will be all kinds of posts saying that the assassination of a President every now and then is a good thing". Watch out! Here come the trolls!

11. That would be sickening to see.
And I doubt very much that would happen on any large scale.

Bush is, at best, a figurehead. The greater criminals, and Bush himself need to meet with true justice, not slaughter.

12. I'm not so sure about that...
I know a LOT of people who feel exactly this way.

Not going to happen. Ever.

16. Is Karl Rove the Executive Producer?
No better way to drum up sympathy and rally the wagons around the president than to create a "Leftist Hollywood" movie with this topic.

These bastards know no bounds.
