POLL: Who would be the best Bush in the docudrama of our meltdown?

[yurbud]

Crispin Glover (creepy enough...almost)



Christian Bale (see American Psycho)



Sean Penn (does a good angry pissant)



Steve Carell (see his work in Anchorman. Any guy who can convincingly deliver the line, "I pooped a hammer," can play Bush)



Will Ferrell (already plays Bush, does a good frat boy stupid)



Samuel L. Jackson (doesn't look like Bush, but did a great job playing a crack addict in Jungle Fever)


Bonzo (may be dead, but still more presidential than real Bush)

1. I pick Will.

I saw a guy in a movie that would make the perfect
Kerry. Didn't get his name but the movie was called
"Stealing Sinatra".

[The Jacobin]

2. Jeff Bridges

Think "Big Lebowski"

[Chichiri]

21. He also played a GOOD President

in "The Contender." I wouldn't want him to tarnish his image.

[Chichiri]

22. Crispin Glover.

He would be PERFECT.

[The Jacobin]

3. Tommy Lee Jones

Hell, he's even from Texas.

[yurbud]

7. I like the look, but he's too smart and manly

It has to be someone stupid who you can look at and think, "I could kick that prick's ass."

4. Pauly Shore.

stupid and annoying enough

[yurbud]

Bush isn't capable of either.

5. You forgot the guy who impersonates Bush on Jay Leno.

He is so realistic it's scary! And of course he's funny. Leno interviewed his "Bush" once and asked him awhile ago about the problems with Liberia. His Bush said something to the effect that he understands Liberians deeply. In fact, his wife used to be one. He had one word for them-SHHHHHH. It was quite funny!

[goclark]

8. Sean Penn looks like him and is such a great actor

He could win an acaemy award for playing the Chimp.

[Spirochete]

9. Randy Quaid

[Straight Shooter]

10. Didn't Randy Quaid play Lyndon Johnson way back when?

I don't think he's "bush" material. It needs to be a wimpy-looking guy who can stuff his crotch and still look like he ain't got nuttin'.

[PurityOfEssence]

15. Yes, on a mini-series. It wasn't very good, but he was PERFECT.

Now THAT'S casting.

[yurbud]

11. he does a good hillbilly

31. No, googled it on the web.

But I saved it too. It is a great likeness, isn't it?

[yurbud]

33. who knew he had his own species?

[Tommymac]

35. Heresy!

Devolution is a theory!!!

:rofl:

[YDogg]

16. Heck, I like the idea of Samuel L. Jackson ...

... although I voted for Steve Butabi. Er, Will Ferrell.

[yurbud]

20. Whenever someone wants to borrow money, I make them do the gator dance

from Jungle Fever.

17. Tim Roth. Damned good actor, not afraid to be meaner'n a snake

and close enough in looks. He's smart and fearless and can play crazy and addicted like a champ.

[yurbud]

19. yeah, but can he do stupid hillbilly?

18. Coco The Chimp is still alive

I think Coco turned 50 earlier this year.

[fricasseed_gourmet_rat]

25. Will Patton (looks like Bush) or Timothy Bottoms (played him on TV)

Remember "That's My Bush!"

[yurbud]

26. Tim Bottoms played him on "That's My Bush" AND 9/11 propaganda movie

I couldn't watch all of it, but the Pet Goat scene was great. They made it look like he was being cool under fire.

The whole thing was kind of like that SNL skit on Reagan with Phil Hartman. In public, Reagan is a meandering old fart, but he goes behind the scenes and becomes the shark directing Iran-Contra and dirty tricks.

That 9/11 movie made Bush look he had an IQ above room temperature.

30. I voted Bonzo but

then I realized Bonzo is way smarter than Shrub!

[Zorra]

32. Max Baer, Jr. in his younger days, when he played Jethro on the

Beverly Hillbillies.

[yurbud]

41. a little too cerebral

34. Are you kidding? All those guys are too handsome to play Shrub!

Even Bonzo!

[yurbud]

40. you could beat them with an ugly stick (and a stupid stick too)

36. I was thinking Jim Carrey

He can be alternately dumb and creepy, such as his performance as the Riddler.

Ned Beatty will play Karl Rove, of course.

[Incitatus]

37. Bonzo

[Domitan]

38. Christian Bale without a question

He'd make the best Bush actor in terms of persona and looks (he resembles a younger Shrub). If you see Bale's character in Shaft, you'd nary have a doubt of how tailormade a future movie script about Bush is for Christian Bale.

[Stinky The Clown]

39. PeeWee Herman

A wanker to play a wanker

[vard28]

42. Will is my first choice...

... 'cause I love the way he says "strategery"! :applause:

We can't forget Dana Carvey. He did a great Daddy Dubya!

[Swamp Rat]

43. Bonzo!!!

Yaay!!! Bonzo!!! :woohoo:
