7. don't let that worry you ...
Edited on Wed Oct-01-03 02:01 PM by Lisa
I heard that Gordon Campbell (a rabid neo-con up here in Canada) loves "The West Wing".

Perhaps these guys enjoy a good story as much as anyone else does ... I heard that when George Plimpton visited the WH, all * wanted to talk about was an April Fool's yarn about a fictional baseball player that Plimpton had once written.

We already know that * is very susceptible to seeing himself as a "media creation" -- hence the penchant for dressing up? If he sees himself as a B5 character some days .... maybe this is one of the few areas where he actually has good taste!


p.s. my guess is, Cheney probably identifies with the Shadows. That whole idea about staying hidden while they take things over ... (shiver)


Note that, if they actually were telling the truth and not just trying to butter up their visitors ... Bush sure hasn't come out and said he likes SF, maybe because he's afraid that people would make fun of him. Wimp! Al Gore told several interviewers that he watched "Star Trek" and thought Frank Herbert's "Dune" was one of the most influential books he'd ever read.
