I'm Still Here
No, I haven't been rounded up by the conservative thought police for criticizing Karl Rove (although with this administration, that's probably right around the corner). I'm just swamped with work this week -- it's kicking my ass like I was Mike Tyson fighting a no name, punch drunk, mediocre Irish boxer.
I haven't forgotten about the rock history project; haven't run out of things to say about this criminal administration; haven't finished pummeling that candy-assed cult freak Tom Cruise; haven't stopped preparing to gloat now that the NHL is back and the Boston Bruins can now continue the run of Boston sports teams winning championships. I'll be back as soon as time allows it... in the meantime, I just have two quotes for you.
"Even though I'm a tranquil guy now at this stage of my life, I have nothing but contempt and anger for those who betray the trust by exposing the name of our sources. They are, in my view, the most insidious of traitors." -- George H.W. Bush, in a speech on April 26, 1999
"As I indicated yesterday, every person who works here at the White House, including Karl Rove, has the confidence of the president." -- White House spokesman Scott McClellan, July 13, 2005
Looks like one Bush has ethics, morals, and recognizes treason when he sees it. The other encourages it and gives it his full confidence.
Comments
Tom Cruise ranks up there with Keanu Reeves, and Ben Affleck, as an actor who gets rolls in all these movies that would otherwise be extremely cool.
I call it the taint factor. "The Last Samurai" was an 8 on the taint scale. "Vanilla Sky" a 7.
Cruise, to me, is the type of actor that gets placed after a script is written to fill in the gaps or draw an extra crowd that may not have been there before. This is unlike Deniro, Pacino, Walken, or D. Sutherland who can simply have a movie written around them.
