it's really kind of creepy-scary, but in a big brother kind of way.

1. it's like a 50s nightmare bs attack

that sucks. Have you seen the one about Moms in the Navy-they aren't the peace corps. they are the last resort, trained to kill, to fight, to follow orders that outside ofthe military would be a crime. Yet that damn commercial is showing Navy feeding kids, building Habitat 4 Humanity-style homes, "if you keep making that face it wil get stuck that way, we're telling your Dad what you're doing, etc. Then showing babies, young children, pregnant mothers......wtf?

2. when I saw it in the theater a couple weeks ago

(before the Woody Allen film(!), there had just been a story that drone had mistakenly killed a wedding party or some such horror in Afghanistan. I started laughing out loud...reminded me of the Vietnam era daily ironies with which we were faced...the continuous shrieks and lies, and then the bastards who performed all these sleight-of-hand tricks then admitted that the war was a 'mistake'. No sympathy for them from me.
