Yes the fawning and worshipping is really getting old. I wonder for how long that will continue after he has been anointed saviour of the world tomorrow?

I saw Valkyrie last week. Pretty good, and I learned something. Historical novels and movies are my favorite. I am picky though. I won't ever go out of my way to see a BO historical movie or read a book about BO. In fact I'll go out of my way not to.

It isn't the man I abhor, but the disgusting adulation. No man should be idolized like this.

Sweet Shirley and I are going to lunch and a movie this afternoon. Lunch I'm okay with, but movies don't impress me either. However, this is Clint food in Gran Torino, so I will give it a chance.

Ken, I saw "Gran Torino" Friday and enjoyed it. I'll be interested in hearing your take.

I mentioned to a liberal friend of mine that I enjoyed it. Her response was "oh really? I've heard it's not that good." Typical response from one with a left-of-center POV.

We saw Valkyrie a couple weeks ago. Good movie, even though Tom Cruise is a complete AH. Anyone would have been better in that part, but he didn't spoil the film for me.

Now, is that really true? Think Sean "Red Cup Bailing" Penn.
