imagine working for Sean Hannity.
Of course perky conservative Mrs. Hasselbeck thought that sounded just dandy.
Dreyfuss went on to explain that Stone proves that "you can be a fascist even when you’re on the left." The actor also expressed that he felt the American people were left out of the movie, which is flawed.
Dreyfuss is no slouch when it comes to politics. His big push is the need to teach civics, "the pre-partisan" foundation of government in public schools, as geopolitics are not the place to make a mistake.

Dreyfuss indicates that the American people are “left out” out (as a character) in the movie “W”. I find this to be historically accurate, since the American people are “left out” of the Bush presidency and “governance”.
This isn’t a flaw, it’s accurate. For Bush, the people were non existent and immaterial.
I saw W. when it opened and have to say I thought it was pretty weak: it portrayed W fairly sympathetically, mostly saying it was all that trying to please his father that got him in trouble.
Not quite enough of the venality, stubbornness & stupidity that really define Bush.
BTW, what do you think “Poppy” is thinking right now as he watches his son’s term come to an end?
