After watching How to Succeed at Business Without Even Trying I was struck at how easy it would be to steal the entire format and apply it to the Bush Administration's How To Suck at War Without Even Trying. After all they point out the best way to get a new idea is to steal one.
Watching the newly graduating class of Regents college climb the Republican corporate ladder to lofty heights and the continual change of American interim Iraq govenors; Franks, Garner, Bremmer ect.
This war comedy musical could even celebrate the Fox news and defense contractor/privatized army angles. The mad cap hangings of Saddams crew is a laugh riot as the incompetant Iraqi's end up popping the heads off instead of letting them hang.
Its got everything: Sex, torture, fortunes made and stars born.
Its sort of a Producers meets How to Succeed
Think of the songs... The company way / The Republican way I believe in you / You believe in him A Secretary is not a toy / The Secretary is not a toy Yer doing a great job / yer doing a heck of a job
