“cast”

I don’t see anyone listed as Armitage or Novak on that list. There is a Scooter Libby, of course. And I would’ve assumed there was a Cheney, but there is a Karl Rove, so I guess he’s the one who’ll get to yell, “I don’t care how you do it. Heck, out his wife if you have to. Joe Wilson cannot be allowed to win. WE NEED THAT OIL!!!”

meager cast..and not so popular actors, plus most of the audience will not even relate this to anything, as many are not into politics as closely as we are. The audience wants the real Bond types, not Plame and Wilson or they want Salt![Jolie] The viewers may have heard the news at the time; but mostly forget..real life gets in the way.

And what's his face is not in demand anymore, became too controversial, too political. I guess Harvey Milk was the last thing he was in and one writer/director, Van Sant [gay], walked off the set.

GI.. What made you walk off the Harvey Milk movie? Did dropping out of it create bad blood between you and Warner Brothers?

GVS... The script lacked humanity. It was too like a circus, a regular Hollywood script. I needed more time with it. The Randy Shilts book didn’t do the kind of things you want to have happen in a movie. Harvey wasn’t funny in the script; in real life he was hilarious. He was corny. He had a lot of depth. I couldn’t personally do that script; the film would have been a cliché."[aren't they all]

The Wilsons "reinforced their patriotism to Hollywood" not the USofA.
