Assume the Position...

Assume the Position 201 is a new comedy special on HBO that takes a look at the idea that we have a rich history of lousy leaders, and our current one while being very very lousy is not unique in his lousiness. Very interesting, quite funny with a couple of jaw-dropping I-did-not-know-that moments. I highly recommend it.

From HBO's web site:
"In an all-new follow-up to his acclaimed 2006 HBO special, Emmy®-winner Robert Wuhl delivers another imaginative, irreverent comedic history lesson that playfully examines some of the facts, myths, and myths-that-became-facts that have permeated American history. Mixing pop culture with historical events and lighthearted observations from pundits, Robert Wuhl is the history teacher you never had (but wished you did)."

I have the new one recorded but have not yet watched it.
