Conservatives and Republicans are getting hammered on the Sunday night movie. Scripted references by Bob Hansen (played by William Hurt) to Al Gore being a maniacal and un-American supporter of Bill Clinton, glad he wasn't elected, trying to link the traitorous Bob Hansen now to Republicans via 'the pot calling the kettle black'. Go figure, it's a CBS lamestream movie.

For a special event November sweeps movie, that's pretty darn horrible.
According to Vise's The Bureau and the Mole, Hansen did some of his most significant spying under Louis Freeh's (Clintoon appointee) bungling watch.
Since I got a dish, don't think Ihave watched network TV except for Baseball, shows you how out of tune with the US I am.
Well, Hansen may be a destestable scumbag, but nobody ever accused him of being stupid...
I just got back here to FR. Something real strange happened after posting this a few hours ago. I couldn't get to the thread. An error popped up and said "Thread does not exist", even though I could read everybody's comments at the time.
I don't do a lot of thread originating, but this seemed very strange. But I can see it now, or otherwise I couldn't be replying right now to you guys.
Oh, well, I'm plugged back in.
Oh, and my dyslexia problem has cleared up...thank DOG!
