Obama Hires Academy Award Winning Filmmaker To Direct A Movie About . . . Barack Obama…

President Obama’s campaign has hired Oscar-winning director Davis Guggenheim to produce a short film chronicling the first three years of his administration, Julianna Goldman of Bloomberg reports.

The campaign paid more than $160,000 for the film,

As much as I hate to say it, Obama's campaign people are pretty adept at using every trick and medium possible to advance Obama and his objectives. Four years ago they took a practically unknown man who had done nothing of any significance, with no record for leadership, no admirable work ethic, and no love for this country...and through the utilization of the Internet and well placed media connections, they gave us a president who's only success has been to advance the destruction of our society and country.

Now they are going to make a movie about his first three years in office. Just imagine how his base will flock to see that. I am sure the movie won't reflect at all on Obama's failures. The film will be like a pep rally on steroids. And...You know the Obama lemmings will spend their last dollar for the privilege of adoring Obama.

Yep, what a clever way to get those who can't afford the thousand-dollar-a-plate dinners, to contribute to his campaign. And, at the same time, give the narcissist who relies on attention, Obama, another "fix" required to boost self esteem and haughty attitude, especially since the live crowds have been dwindling for the past couple of years.

I have to say it, they are clever...deceitful, yes, but clever. The GOP just does not ever do anything in the way of promoting their candidates that compares to the conniving tactics and ability these guys have to infiltrate the public's minds with hype and pure propaganda.

This is a step in the RIGHT direction!

(You'll remember that he employed a Pentagon Bombing Terrorist to ghostwrite his "autobiography.")

Davis Guggenheim won the Oscar for An Inconvenient Truth, giving Al Gore a fake photo op with the statue. Who doesn’t think Gore won an Oscar? Guggenheim’s alleged biopic of 0bama will be done in time for a nomination, to which Dear Leader can fake a claim.

The title. “HOW TO BE A SUCCESSFUL LIAR”

the man who wrote two autobiographies before he was 50...

Allegedly.

I can understand why he needs to have a movie made about himself, when the networks will never give him any air time....

[Farmer Dean]

Just like Obama to hire a guy with a proven track record of lying.It worked so well at Treasury for example.

[FrdmLvr]

First of all, he writes not one but TWO books about himself, now he’s making a movie about himself. Not in love with himself much.

[HMS Surprise]

The funny thing is that he has to pay someone to do it. Sarah P. got one for free.

Triumph of the Will (German: Triumph des Willens) is a propaganda film made by Leni Riefenstahl. It chronicles the 1934 Nazi Party Congress in Nuremberg, which was attended by more than 700,000 Nazi supporters.[1]

The film contains excerpts from speeches given by various Nazi leaders at the Congress, including portions of speeches by Adolf Hitler, interspersed with footage of massed party members. Hitler commissioned the film and served as an unofficial executive producer; his name appears in the opening titles. The overriding theme of the film is the return of Germany as a great power, with Hitler as the True German Leader who will bring glory to the nation.

Contribute? Hah. They will have to give the tickets away for free in order to get any of his oxygen wasters to come. Popcorn included.

A short film...

President Obama’s campaign has hired Oscar-winning director Davis Guggenheim to produce a short film chronicling the first three years of his administration, Julianna Goldman of Bloomberg reports.

Well, after they take out all the vacations, golf outings, basketball games, sessions with his personal trainer, dinners at the White House, campaign appearances, fundraisers, meetings with contributors, meetings with ACORN folks, meetings with other political groups, jetting around the country and world to give speeches, jazz and blues and other concerts at the White House, it's got to be a really short film.

[TigersEye]

I don’t think Pee Wee’s Big Adventure is the kind of movie you can do a re-make of. Even if you call it Wee Wee’s Big Adventure.

[SoFloFreeper]

Davis Guggenheim didn’t do it for free? That selfish bastard.

[clearcarbon]

You’d think that a 5 to 10 minute cartoon
would be more than adequate to cover the
first three quarters of his presidency.

[Apparatchik]

Unfortunately, these titles were taken:
Liar, Liar
I Am Legend
How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying
Big Momma's House (with a nod to Michelle)
Another Disaster Movie
Other People's Money
Titanic (to describe both O's ego and the eventually fate of his (p)residency)
The Man Who Would Be King
Deception
Apocalypse Now
Downfall
The Thing (again, for Michelle)
The Manchurian Candidate
Flubber
Despicable Me
10 Things I Hate About You
American Gangster
Pee Wee's Big Adventure
Chicken Run
Clueless

I could go on...

I have to go on with one more: The Money Pit

Now I feel better.
