If any of you have not seen the comedy "Dick", I highly recommend that you do.

I know, you're expecting it to be the standard Nixon bashing fest that Hollywood always produces, and they do give Nixon a good bashing.

But Nixon is nowhere near the most abused guy in the movie. He comes across us something of a lovable jerk. And the girls (who are the stars of the plot) are quite funny.

But far and away, the targets in this movie are Woodward and Bernstein. They are played by Will Farrell (from SNL) and one of the guys from Kids in the Hall (I don't know his name.)

They are so relentlessly mocked, coming across as the two nine-year-old idiot boys in way over their heads. I don't know what Hollywood was thinking when they let two heroes of the left get pounded so bad.

I'm telling you true, if you hate Woodward and Bernstein as much as I do, you will love the ruthless bashing they take in "Dick".

If you hate them, be sure to read Nora Ephron's Heartburn. She was married to Carl Bernstein and she found out he was cheating on her with the wife of the ambassador from England. So, she wrote a book based on their lives.

Believe me, she got him back......I laughed all the way through it.

Best lines:

Nora: I want him back.

Shrink: You're making progress; last week you wanted him dead.

Nora: I want him back, but I want him back dead.
