President Bush's Speech: The Strangest Thing ...
Keaton: McManus. What the fuck is going on?
McManus: The strangest thing...-- The Usual Suspects (1995)
Here is a quick tag cloud of President's Bush's speech to the nation earlier tonight on the credit crisis. You'll notice, as I did, that the word "taxpayers" didn't pop up often. All snark aside, this was a creditable effort, and I don't say that lightly.
Creditable it might have been, of course, but it was still an overdue and somewhat surreal affair, with the Administration playing catch up on something monstrous that clearly has caught it almost entirely by surprise. Granted, it shouldn't have been a surprise, because this complex plot has been playing out for some time, but welcome to the movie, boy and girls. We're all hoping for a twist ending.
