Unity is the Keyword
As we all know from watching the West Wing, while the winners and losers of yesterday’s election are all saying the right things and striking a consolatory tone in their speeches, they are ranting and raving behind closed doors. But like a football victory, let’s hope the crowing stays behind closed doors, and that the job of embracing an angry nation’s distress, and finding palatable and workable bi-partisan solutions will be achieved. That said, I’m no politician. I am a Bush basher and hope that he understands the message being sent by the ballot box. President Bush, listen to your advisors. Fire Rumsfeld. 
That will send a clear message that you are willing to—and I hate this phrase—“Change the culture of our Iraqi policy.” Work together with the new Congress to find a road you can both walk towards a resolution of the mess in Iraqi. Our politicians might use party politics as a nasty club to bash opponents with ridiculous and seemingly libelous accusations, but after the votes are counted we are not going out and killing members of the other tribe. In our hearts and souls we are Americans first. Let’s show the rest of the world what “United We Stand” really means.

Toronto, Ontario—The Toronto International Film Festival has always been a forum for controversial films and this year’s edition is no exception. Knowing that the nature of the film would ignite controversy, the festival tried to downplay Death of a President--a film that images the assassination of President Bush--by listing it as D.O.A.P. in the program guide. The exact nature of the film was not revealed until a few days before the fest began on Sept. 7. The pseudo documentary by British director Gabriel Range presents the scenario that the president was gunned down in Chicago following a speech in October 2007.
