Fri, 29 Aug 2008 23:13:26 GMT http://www.wikio.com/search/Laura+Bush?rinfoid=69497792 2008-08-29T23:13:26Z http://www.wikio.com/search/Laura+Bush?rinfoid=69466687 There are girls swinging on a red swingset and piles of potluck food piled high on the tables, all nestled into a wood-fence-lined back yard. According to Oliver Stone's W. , this is how George W. Bush met Laura Welch -- the girl who says: "I read. I smoke. I admire." No wonder the two ended up together! The above is a clip about their meeting, which has popped up over at CNN. Now I know that the big question surrounding this film is whether people will go to see it , or ignore it, kind of like the proliferation of Iraq war films out there. I have to say, if W. tanks when it hits screens on October 17, it would be a waste. The film looks entertaining, it has a distinct life to it, and it would be a shame to miss how the killer cast takes on their roles -- Brolin, Banks, Cromwell, Burstyn, Newton, Dreyfuss, Wright, Glenn, Gruffudd, and Bradford.

I hope that Oliver Stone produces an unbiased look at George Bush with W., and I hope this as a liberal.

Bush and Laura Welch meet at a BBQ and immediately discover their political differences, as depicted in Oliver Stone's 'W.' Fri, 29 Aug 2008 16:45:43 GMT http://www.wikio.com/search/Laura+Bush?rinfoid=69442710 2008-08-29T16:45:43Z http://www.wikio.com/search/Laura+Bush?rinfoid=69447513 I’m not expecting to learn anything from Oliver Stone’s Bush biopic, W. , but it’s possible that I will. After watching this clip depicting the first encounter of the future President (played by Josh Brolin) and the future First Lady (Elizabeth Banks), I’ve already learned something I didn’t previously know: that Laura was a Democrat, one who even campaigned for ‘68 Presidential candidate Eugene McCarthy, before meeting the conservative, Barry Goldwater-reading man of her dreams at a backyard barbecue. Surprisingly, Stone’s portrayal of how George and Laura met is accurate. At least, it is if Wikipedia is to be believed. And I guess that only guarantees me that the setting is correct. The dialogue is probably only based on speculation. Not that I mind. I still love Stone’s The Doors and have no problem with the romantic fabrication of how Jim Morrison and Pam Courson meet in the film, and as a Doors fan, I know how ridiculously false it is.

I also read three Shakespeares. ... I've got a eck-a-lec-tic reading list.... The key for me is to keep expectations low." -- George aWol Bush, interview with NBC's Brian Williams, New Orleans, La., August 29th, 2006 Ladies and gentlemen, 3 years ago today, at 6:10 am, Hurricane Katrina made landfall, and New Orleans flooded. I'm very familiar with Hurricane Katrina; I was in New Orleans that week for Parent Orientation for a child. And when I left New Orleans on mid-day on Friday, August 26th, Tulane and Loyola were still checking students into the dorms; there was an exudus of parents leaving their college kids for the new school year. So there isn't much blame for getting caught flat footed ; no blame for Bush, for Blanco, for Nagin. or for anyone else - they simply don't deserve blame as Katrina was a freak. Where there is plenty of room for blame , is FEMA's pathetic response - exempliefied by Boy Blunder's infamous "Brownie, you're doin' a heckuva job." No, Brownie wasn't - because as with every other misAdministration bureaucracy, FEMA was filled with hack political appointees; cronies whose most important attribute was absolute fealty to the misAdministration. read more Fri, 29 Aug 2008 10:59:09 GMT http://www.wikio.com/search/Laura+Bush?rinfoid=69403918 2008-08-29T10:59:09Z http://www.wikio.com/search/Laura+Bush?rinfoid=69374485 CNN has posted an exclusive clip from the up and coming Oliver Stone's biopic project focusing on the first meeting between Bush and his wife.
