Wag the Dog

This is a movie recommendation.

If you haven't seen it, rent it. It's pretty timely at the moment. Or at least it has the potential to be timely. Great cast too.

It's about some presidential aids trying to divert the press away form a sex scandal in an election year by creating a war. So they hire a Hollywood producer to help them. It's a comedy but I can certainly how something like this could really happen. I'm not saying of course that I think that is what is happening but I can see the potential.

Anyway, watch the movie. It's a good one.

Wow! I was just talking about that movie last night!

It really wouldn't be too crazy of an idea to get an "Iraqi citizen" to talk about the evils of Saddam.

My husband and I watched it on Sunday. We saw it when it first came out and I wasn't all that interested in it at the time. But I really paid attention to it this time. Certainly made me think.

I think it is possible to get an Iraqi citizen to talk but I still believe that Saddam is evil. I know people who have been there and seen for themselves. I would tell you more but then I would have to kill you.

Damn! And I thought I'd have a great opportunity to go off about no personal attacks!

I don't doubt that Hussein is evil! That's not what I was saying! I was just saying that it wouldn't be that far-fetched of an idea for the govt to create "sources" or "information".
