Thread Name: BS: Bush, an American Saviour - seriously!
Subject: BS: Bush, an American Saviour - seriously!
From this morning's New York Times, a bit of news that is so appalling that even the most rightwing fundies must be embarrassed. Apparently some Bush supporters have made a film that will be released on October 5 (same days as Fahrenheit 9/11 DVD). It is called "Faith in the White House," and it compares GWB with Jesus Christ - favourably. He is presented as a True Warrior for God.
The review in this morning's NYT called the film "The Passion of the Bush," which I find funny, but I also find the entire issue ludicrous, manipulative, and contemptuous of the people it is designed to manipulate.
I'm sorry I don't have time to post some snippets from the review -- here is the website, and I urge you all to read it, as it is absolutely unbelievable. I look forward to reading your comments.
