Showtime??? The "Queer as Folk" network? They don't hint that Bush is gay or something?

"My impression was confirmed in the final scene where they switched from Bottom's delivering the address to the joint session of congress to film of the real George Bush. Our President has a depth and spirit that cannot be reproduced by even the most polished of actors. There is no substitute for the real thing."

Hear, Hear!

Simple economics, nothing more. Canada subsidizes film production and gives you tax credits that you can't get in the states. On average, you get between 30 to 35 percent more for your budget shooting in Canada.

I just checked and you're absolutely correct.

Pretty pathetic spectacle, if you ask me. There's Reality, and there's Liberal Thinking, and never the twain shall meet.

I am sure it will be on sale somewhere. It might be cheaper then ordering showtime and you will not have too put the child lock on.

No mystery - a lot of Showtime productions are filmed in Canada due to expense. It is much cheaper there.

Thanks Gonzo, from the HTML-challenged! And you are right about Tom Shales being a Clymer!
