Hilarious opening paragraph to this article about josh Brolin. I think I may be the only Republican who accidently read this.

Yeah. I just read the WSJ Magazine, but I won’t be doing that again. TRIPE.

Josh Brolin has played a series of unlikable men: a greed-struck Texan in the Coen brothers' "No Country for Old Men,"

Did the author actually see the movie,"No Country for Old Men,"? Josh Brolin's character was clearly the protagonist of the film. His character was probably one of the more likable male characters in the movie.

George W. Bush in Oliver Stone's "W."

Certainly one of the most unlikable men in history [/s] Bush was elected president twice. We still have yet to see if Obama is quite that likable.

“Josh Brolin has played a series of unlikable men: a greed-struck Texan in the Coen brothers’ ‘No Country for Old Men,’”

I actually think that character was pretty likable. Foolhardy, yes, but plucky and laconic and at least until the end faithful (I couldn’t be sure, what with the tricky anti-climax). Is there anything so wrong about picking up lost cash? I mean, besides putting your family in danger. What, would the government spend it better? And so what if it’s “blood money”? The blood wasn’t the money’s fault, and I’m not going to use it to buy more blood (although there will be blood as a result of my appropriating it).
