Directed and Produced by...

Charles Ferguson. As I watched the documentary "No End in Sight", I had to wonder. Does the nickname "Rummie" mean "Rum Dumb" or "Redrum"? He seems to be the only one "getting" the jokes in his press conferences. By instigating (with distinguished help) the abolition of the pro-U.S.A. Iraqi military squads (and putting them out of work), he achieved, presumably accidentally:
1) An effective genocide, by "allies" against U.S. troops.
2) Anarchy of the worst kind in Iraq.
3) Creation, perhaps, of a solid 3 country bloc against us (of fundamentalist extremists). Afghanistan, Iran and Iraq, as a single, focused entity, will be a powerful "Axis of Evil".
Oh well, stuff happens Henny Penny. Comical.

It occurs to me that no North American administration (hopefully) will ever foster the expose' like the Bush guys of the early 21st. century.


Robert Redford. Oh alright, he's not an off-beat director. But he does have an off-beat persona. I had resisted seeing "The Legend of Bagger Vance" for years. Looked sappy. I didn't realize that it was a "sweet" golf movie. I love golf! And I liked the movie. Will Smith, great. Matt Damon, great. J. Michael Moncrief, great. Charlize Theron, you know. It's the first time that I thought I was wrong and I was right. What?
