Patriot Paradox

"He counted on America being passive. He counted wrong."

The first scene! The first Bloody scene!

Int. Reagan Bedroom -- White House

Mike Deaver
I got a call from John Tower…He wants to talk to you, Mr. President…

Reagan is still staring into the tv. It’s a cowboy movie.

Nancy
It’s okay, Mike. Go on.

Deaver turns to Nancy, lowers his voice

Deaver
(in a whisper)
They’re beginning to talk about impeachment.

She begins to tremble.

Nancy
They’ll never impeach him.
They won’t have the votes for it in the Senate.

I'm very happy that this one was sent to Showtime, the TV equivalent of Siberia. Reagan is a great man and deserves better.

The only thing that would be better is if they just trash-canned the whole film.

Personally, I don't think we should give them the hits or the attention. I won't be looking at it.

Thanks

A complete piece of crap. This is worse than I thought. Just look at any three or four scenes throughout the script. Every single one portrays the Reagans in a terrible way.

It's obvious no research was done at all for the script. The authors just remembered what they could about the Reagan administration and invented all the behind-the-scenes nastiness.

Thanks for the 'Headzup'. After reading your Post #3, I'm gonna skip this.

Not only is this script a poisoned-pen-letter aimed directly at Republicans and Conservatives by hateful, spiteful, vindictive Leftists/Democrats/Liberals/aging, bo-toxed, Anti-American Hollywood Divas, but I can ONLY imagine what the biased actors have done by breathing life into a script like this.

This has been a travesty, and I'm grateful the American people are starting to stand up to the powers-that-be when they try to pawn their psychotic-worldview/crap off on us.

Hollywood Leftist Ping!!! If you wish to be added to or dropped from this list, please FReepmail me.

I've read 4 pages of this crap and that's all I can stand.

It's a frickin' cartoon caricature....unbelievable.

HalfFull -- check this out.

Did I read it correctly? Did the script claim that Nancy was pregnant before they married and had an abortion?

[RandallFlagg]

Somebody needs to paste the thing here before they get rid of it. I can't -I'm at work.

Top ten lines of "THE REAGANS"

10. Just round them up and have them killed, Nancy.
9. Nancy, TEAR DOWN THAT WALL. I don't care if the $%&*# room can't be called the "OVAL" office anymore. This is our place, now, and you've got a right to redecorate.
8. Round up those others, too. And have them tortured and killed, Nancy.
7. Where's that list of people we're going to kill, Nancy?
6. Who put that half-baked Marine in charge of the Contra thing? Me? Are you sure?
5. I just talked to the VP's kid, GW. What a simpleton.
4. My husband's the President, you fool. And you better shape up or we'll have you killed.
3. They that die by sin shall live by sin. Did I get that right? I'm so confused.
2. Cheney better keep his hands out of the cookie jar on this one...what a greedy B%$%*^#.
1. First ammendment, my *##. Shut down the New York Times.

HOLY CRAP!!!

This essentially alleges that Ronald got Nancy pregnant at some point before they were married, and her mother arranged for her to get an abortion.

[Chad Fairbanks]

Well, isn't THIS interesting...

[Semi Civil Servant]

Gee, it took a full eight pages before they brought up their "McCarthy" boogeyman.

[Semi Civil Servant]

If I were a CBS stock-holder, I would be very upset that they spent $9 million for a piece of rubbish like this. Just a look at the first draft should have put a halt to this stink bomb. Did the execs at CBS really believe this hit piece wouldn't cause a problem?

Patti wrestles the remote away from him. Micheal turns to Maureen, muttering:

Micheal: Jody Foster? He shot Dad in order to impress Jody Foster?

Ron: Wait till Dad hears he was shot by a deranged movie fan. He'll love it.

Maureen: That's not funny, Ron.

Patti: I think it's funny.

Doria: Maybe now he'll change his mind about gun control.

Maureen: Gun control? You think gun control would have stopped this guy?

Micheal: Oh great. Blame the victim.

Ron: Back off, you guys. Doria's right.

Michael: You guys ought toread the newspaper once in a while. Maybe then you'd wake up, and ditch this hippie crap.

As her family continues to argue, Patti buries her head in her hands.

Patti: What kind of family is this? Even a bullet can't bring us together.

Am downloading it now for review. Was this deemed as a documentary, fiction, or non-fiction. I guess that is the question.
