Kevin Spacey: Bill Clinton backs accuracy of 'House of Cards'

The Hill ^ | 3/31/15 | Judy Kurtz

[Fai Mao]

So, is Bill Clinton admitting to having killed three people like Frank Underwood?

[Mastador1]

Never watched the show, but if it deals with corruption, deceit, thievery, rape, murder and rape then old Bill would be an expert on it.

[Utilizer]

Never seen the series, as I gathered that it was little more than liberal propaganda loosely disguised as entertainment.

Is BJ admitting to shady dealings, criminal undertakings, bribery, corruption, and illegal foreign campaign contributions while selling out this country for cash and personal perks? Finally, like many people have gathered over the years about him? A lesbian wife, whose bastard daughter is publicly only identified as his but who looks nothing like him?

There’s more, but that is at least a start.

The original British ver with Francis Urquet was truly creepy, but so are the Clinton’s.

The sources used by the writers to create the stories are insiders to the game of politics from what I have read. It should not be that shocking to its accuracy.

[Behind Liberal Lines]

Of course it’s realistic. The Democrat president and his conniving wife are evil.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Isn’t that like... a confession?

[DemforBush]

You might think that. I could not *possibly* comment...

Not really. Both parties are corrupt and phoney, but Spacey's character is the worst of the bunch, and a Democrat. I haven't seen the current season though.

[Utilizer]

Hmmm. I may have to watch a couple of episodes, then.

[acapesket]

It is a great show.
Riveting. Has Klintoon written all over it.
I have only watched Season 1.

[demshateGod]

I killed that janitor in Iraq and a bunch of people at an aspirin factory.

[Bogey78O]

Season 1 wasn’t liberal propaganda. All but a handful of liberals on the show are actually good. Everyone is conniving and spiritually dead. Especially Frank.

[ChicagahAl]

According to Kevin Spacey...

Which may, or may not, be tongue-in-cheek.

We've binge-watched all the episodes.

Frank Underwood is such a despicable character, that the show is often hard to watch.

I'm surprised that the writers/producers made Frank a Democrat. Though, in real life, anyone that evil would have to be a Democrat.

Someone has really done their homework on the behind-the-scenes stuff. I recommend watching it. Just remember; you're supposed to hate Underwood and everything he stands for. Unless, of course, you are a Democrat - in which case, you are supposed to idolize him. ;-)

[Vendome]

It’s actually not liberal promotion.

It is downright engaging and maybe the best show ever. ..not counting Buck Rogers or HardCastle & McCormick. ..

Wow. I've never had any interest in checking out House of Cards. However, it sounds like must see TV from the way you describe it!

[Radix]

HOC is obviously one of the best shows ever produced.

I too was surprised that our hero FU is a democrat, but then again, I likely would never have watched much at all if it were just republican bashing.

It ain't.

I have declined to watch any of the 3rd season so far.

It is obvious where this is going, but those 1st 2 seasons are definitely ‘keepers.’
