Happy 80th birthday to actor and director Patrick McGoohan, whose '60s-era pic I include at this site as a tribute (a montage of clips from "The Prisoner" - the actual show footage was apparently purged from YouTube)...
...and believe it or not, the office cubicle is 40 years old today (Who knew? And in as much as that calls for a tribute - sort of, taking off on that great song by James Blunt)...
...back to politics, and my God, could Kyra Phillips of CNN do a better job of handing The Almighty Petraeus the ultimate softball question here? And it is typically scurrilous for her to try to legitimize the lie of McCain that Iran is helping al Qaeda (Paul Rieckhoff noted that war coverage is just about at an all-time low in this country, and here's a way to do something about that - frightening how truly zombified too many people are in this country from the idiot box, but no shortage of propaganda, of course)...
...and if you can stomach it, I would ask that you take a minute or two to watch President Numbskull from here (and I don't care what anybody says; that man is drunk) and then read the wonderful letter from Gene Kelly's widow in response to MoDo and her latest nonsense (and aside from the number in "An American In Paris," this is probably Kelly's signature movie moment - Culver City just about ran out of water while it was being filmed).
