W

I want to see Oliver Stone's new movie "W". I'm still trying to figure out what the movie really is. Apparently they based the movie heavily off of some biographies and other books that were written about Mr. Bush. Would it be weird to watch a movie about yourself? Would Mr. Bush ever get around to watching the movie? Does it seem kinda weird to be talking about a guy's presidential record while he still has a few months left?


At the same time I think that the narrative would help me understand the man better. I don't know that much about him, except from what I see in the news, and the parodies on SNL. From the previews its hard to tell what kind of movie this will be.


The Times said: "Because “W.” focuses on the warm-up and not the meltdown, it leans more toward comedy than toward tragedy"


Mr. Bush's legacy will be written about for years to come. I'm sure we'll know everything someday, but who knows? Do I really hate the guy as much as I think I do? Probably not.
