Bush has no plans to see Oliver Stone biopic 'W.'

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/presidentbush/2008/08/oliver-stone-1.html

Contrary to our earlier post today, speculating on whether the president might actually enjoy the anti-terrorism speeches in Oliver Stone's new biopic "W.," the White House says President Bush has "no plans" to see the movie.

White House spokeswoman Emily Lawrimore said she's not sure that Bush has seen any of Stone's earlier films, which includes "JFK" and "World Trade Center."

One thing she's clear about: Oliver Stone has no credibility to chronicle the Bush presidency.

"Oliver Stone is an accurate historian like Gilligan was an accurate navigator," she said.

That would be Gilligan, as in "Gilligan's Island," the CBS sitcom from the 1960s about seven castaways shipwrecked on an abandoned island. The show featured Bob Denver, above, playing Gilligan, the hapless navigator.

4. Gilligan's ship didn't go off course
Edited on Thu Aug-21-08 10:44 AM by BOSSHOG
because of human error unlike the fate of our ship of state with W at the helm.

Yo spokesbitch you are just another ignorant c*&t attempting to be conservatively cute and once again you fail.

"If not for the courage of the fearless crew the minnow would be lost."

Evil fucking conservatives attempting to trash Gilligan. Pathetic motherfuckers.
