Cool Video: “W.” teaser leaked to the internets!

Oliver Stone’s film “W.” which is a biopic film on our soon to be former president George W. Bush has been leaked online. The film stars Josh Brolin as George W. and James Cromwell plays George Bush Sr.

My thoughts on the film? I think it actually looks pretty promising. It looks real good and I might actually go see it in theater after all. The video does not allow embedding so I will just post the link.

Enjoy while it’s on before Oliver forces youtube to take it down.

P.S. My mistake, Josh Brolin plays George W. Bush throughout the entire film, they just use makeup effects on Josh when he reaches the middle aged, James Cromwell plays George W’s father who also our President at one time. Edited for corrections.

BREAKING NEWS: Tom Brokaw “is” Tim Russert’s official replacement for “Meet the Press”…

Yep, I knew it! As I already predicted, it was pretty obvious NBC News were going to choose Tom Brokaw to take over Tim Russert’s place.

Tom Brokaw will host “Meet the Press” throughout the 2008 election season.

Tom Brokaw is a legendary TV figure who was the head anchor for “NBC Nightly News” for over 21 years, then retired, Brian Williams took his spot.

Reuters reports:

Perfect choice, I’m glad NBC went for Brokaw!

Report: Brian Williams takes over “Meet the Press” for now…

NBC Nightly News head anchor Brian Williams will take over Tim Russert for “Meet the Press” only for the weekend. A permament host has not been confirmed. It is not yet decided if Williams will host “Meet the Press” for the entire weekend. It could last for a couple of days.

Variety Reports:

How much do you want to bet that the permament host will be no one other than Tom Brokaw? Brokaw and Russert has been best friends for years so it wouldn’t surprise me at all if Brokaw does become Russert’s official replacement. Brokaw seems like the best choice anyway.

The Listening Room: Tony Scozzaro performs Springsteen cover “Born To Run” on acoustic at Tim Russert Memorial…

Tony Scozzaro the brother in law of Tim Russert is a musician, looks to be a classical guitarist. Hear him perform “Born To Run” on acoustic guitar here. Pretty impressive guitar skills I may say, I’m blown away by this performance.

I believe Tim Russert was a huge fan of Bruce Springsteen’s music, that’s why the Memorial was mostly Springsteen.

If Obama does get elected President this year, Hillary could be his vice president. Lets just pray that doesn’t happen either!

Report: NY makes a mistake on our governor replacement, Patterson pardons rapper and psycho Slick Rick…

Our new NY governor David Patterson pardons rapper “Slick Rick” who has spent more than 5 years in prison for the attempted murder of two men in 1991. Slick Rick is a legendary hip hop pioneer that changed the rap music industry.

Patterson says that Slick Rick (real name: Ricky Walters) served enough of his sentence that he should be able to be let free so he can move on with his life and get his past behind him.

The Associated Press reports:

If Slick Rick goes in a murderous rampage again like he did before, impeach Mr. Patterson.

We always get one bad governor after the next.
