HBO filmmakers get inside Obama campaign.

Posted by mantemx on Tuesday, 3 November, 2009

“The War Room” chronicled Bill Clinton’s political operation in 1992, adding a phrase to the political lexicon in the process. Alexandra Pelosi’s “Journeys With George” captured the oddities of a national campaign on board George W. Bush’s airplane in 2000.

The makers of “By the People: The Election of Barack Obama,” which premieres Tuesday — Election Night — on HBO, wouldn’t mind the same status.

“That was our hope — that we would create something for history,” said filmmaker Alicia Sams, who made the documentary with colleague Amy Rice and a key assist from actor Edward Norton.

The lawyer for the man accused of perpetrating the balloon boy hoax to promote a reality show said Monday that he expects authorities to bring charges against his client in the next day as investigators analyze e-mails that show Richard Heene and an associate discussing the stunt months ago.

“These folks are absolutely willing to turn themselves in, so I don’t want to see a perp walk done for media consumption,” lawyer David Lane said on the “Today” show on NBC as he made the rounds on the morning talk shows.

In addition to drawing up possible felony charges against Heene, investigators say they want to question an associate of his after e-mails surfaced showing the two had discussed a balloon hoax months ago as part of a public relations campaign for the reality show.

SNL slams Obama for Doing Nothing

Posted by mantemx on Monday, 5 October, 2009

SNL obama

One of the phony dilemmas face by comedians has been, is one allowed to make fun of Barack Obama? President Obama is, after all, “the One”, and making jokes about him may be an example of Lese Majeste. But SNL has broken the taboo.

The skit depicts President Obama in a nationwide address defending himself against conservative critics who are accusing him of trying to turn the country into a peoples’ republic. “Obama’s” defense is that it hasn’t happened, though not for the lack of trying. “Obama” boasts of his total
lack of accomplishments and his profound incompetence.
