Bush Family Fortunes: The Best Democracy Money Can Buy

Greg Palast is an award-winning, muckraking journalist intent on telling the stories no one else wants to tackle. From East Timor, to the lawsuits surrounding uber-pharmaceutical company Pfizter, to Exxon's appalling safety record, he has remained unflinching in his Robin Hood attempt to hold the powerful accountable for their crimes. Based on the often shocking reports published in his internationally best selling book "The Best Democracy Money Can Buy," this one-hour documentary exposes the missteps and scandalous truths about the Bush family dynasty, including the election heist, the Saudi connection, and the secret State Department plans for postwar Iraq. Accompanied by a fantastic soundtrack by Moby, the DVD also includes an interview with Palast as he discusses the current status of the media, and the system political paybacks by which the Bush family has run the US.

To the few who still think this country is better off now than it was eight years ago, just move along, or stamp an NH on the review.

Pros A quick evidentiary support to many theories.
Cons Conservatives will dismiss it as liberal rhetoric.
Recommended it? Yes

Perhaps it is his staunch belief in doing as he sees fit, no matter what the repercussions might be. Or perhaps it is his connection to familial fame and fortune that has caused the ire of many a filmmaker. Or perhaps it is the simple fact that he is by far the worst President in most of our...

Pros another expose of Bush inadequacies and dishonesty.
Cons a couple questionable statements.
Recommended it? Yes

Yes, here we have yet one more blistering account of malfeasance by our forty-third President, George W. Bush. You'd think that with all the accusations of self interest, incompetence and cronyism flying around that Georgie would be up for impeachment instead of reelection. (let's assume he was...
