When this city slicker was a kid, cowboys wrangled cows and shepards worked with sheep.... and there was always bad blood between the sheep folks and ranchers. I suspect we now know why Hollywood made all those movies about the bad cowboys and the sheep ranchers (shepards) ... and why the cowboys shot the shepards.

...when asked for his reaction to the most talked-about ranching film overhyped homosexual cowboy film in years: "Brokeback Mountain."

Fixed it.

This is not some "ranching film", it's about a couple of butt-buddy rope-suckers.

I'm guessing that butt-buddy rope-suckers were a rarity back then, and probably still are today.

My only disappointment is that the one guy was terrific in a great movie..."October Sky" a while back.

I was there today and got in the press section. This was one of the most incredible experiences I have had in my life.

The president reacted to this question....clearly surprised by it.

What the heck is this story covering exactly? He's a Rancher in name only...because he hasn't seen Brokeback Mountain.

This is movie bit is becoming insane. I would put money on the fact that you could count the number of actual ranchers who have seen this movie on, what, one hand?

"You would love it...you should check it out."

Well, George could probably have flipped the guy off with the following response, but he's too polite:

[schaketo]

Broke "what" mountain?

[Fawn]

Why were they laughing at Bush's answer? I don't understand what was so funny.

[Eva]

Why do they keep calling them cowboys, when they are actually sheep herders?

[Soul Seeker]

O-Kay....So the President clears brush and is from Texas. Since when is it a rite of passage a Texan "Cowboy", as they refer to him, watch a movie about gay lovers? Anyone at the LAT see the absurdity? I suppose John Wayne wasn't qualified to play in Westerns because he didn't play a gay guy. [sarcasm]

The only ones pushing the idea of this movie as a tremendous success are the media and those with a stake in its success.

I don't hear anyone talking about this movie, other than to make fun of it.

And, btw, what are they? I thought they were gay sheepherders. Then the media tags them gay coyboys. Now they are gay ranchers? LOL

"ranching film"

More like raunchy film.

Next Hollywood will do a movie on two gay NASCAR drivers - whatever gives the finger to conservative Americans.
