    The Bush Channel

    What people tend to forget is that each Spider Man movie blends about 20 years worth of comic book back story into them.

    As for Bush's veto? If we put that little bit of "news" into a movie context, we'd have to suspend our disbelief that Bush is still trudging foreward into this fourth sequel (year) of a war (movie) that should never have been made. And to borrow Zacharek's sequel concept that we are lead to be nostalgic for references to the past, while at the same time ignoring that we know what's going to happen—gasp—wondrous shock of historical times: You mean to tell me that Bush vetoed the Dem-backed spending bill?

    Tune in next time for the next zap pow amazing plot development of the Bush saga. Same Bush channel. Same Bush time.
