If the people at CBS were capable of embarrassment, they'd wear bags over their heads for the rest of their lives!

Good one! You are so right!

I say let them run the show, but with those little popups like VH-1's Popup video which say things like "Reagan really didn't say this, but it fit with the director's/screenwriter's idea of him so they included it in the script."

No it's called free market forces, Little Tommy, but I know such a concept is hard for you commies to accept.

Ever notice no one got upset at the intimidation of radio stations to pull Dr Laura's show and Tv stations to pull her TV show?

Now there is an idea! I might even watch that just for laughs.

"...it does again raise the specter of just how powerful some of these special interest groups truly are today," Daschle added."

Individual citizens, banding together to boycott those promoting filth about an individual we admire, are now considered a "special interest group."

Whatever...MUD

"The only way the hapless imbucile/substandard *actor* could've landed a role was if someone bought it for 'em."

Nawww, he's an air force pilot on some late-night syndicated show that nobody watches. All I can say is that he made an awful ugly-lookin' Ronald Reagan...MUD

"As for the leaker Dass-hole? Well that one better shut his piehole & regroup the comrades like real fast, nic. His party's *message* -- due to his leadership -- has resulted in a hemorrhaging so massive death's surely imminent."

Speaking of death, isn't D'asshole's political career on life-support?! I believe he's up fer reelection next November and John Thune is primed to make him an EX-Senator!!

'Bout FReepin' time...MUD

Tommy Daschund is saddened, deeply saddened upon learning news of the cancellation

Just wait until we cancel his reelection and return to Washington.

Ummmm, Mud?
That's a *TV* show.
There's a progression one takes to go from a television series to more major roles on the big screen.
An intermediate step to the "big" role would logically be a TV *miniseries*.

That said, you're right.
He *is* ugly but then people like Charles Laughton were too & he enjoyed a stellar career.
So methinks it's actually worse than that.

He's just a gawad-awful horrible *actor* & would really *need* to provide his own financing to land what he percieved to be the apple of his eye.
Because make no mistake about it, no one's sure in the hell gonna *award* it to him based solely upon his acting "skills."
*Not* unless they're sleeping with him.

...guess you never heard the name, Pia Zadora, huh. ;^)

With all due respect, yer remark I was responding to was...
"The only way the hapless imbucile/substandard *actor* could've landed a role was if someone bought it for 'em."
That says "a" role, not a "big" role.

FReegards...MUD
