W's favoritist movie ever leads to new nature reserve

So this ginormous new wildlife preserve in Hawaii came into being becuase a movie about the islands "fired up" George Bush's imagination.

Aside from the fact that this creates an image of George in his cowboy PJs flinging the popcorn bowl into the air as he "leaps" up all excited about saving the turtles and seahorsies, this puts me in the mood to send our impressionable president a few new DVDs. After all, if thousands of scientific reports and impassioned pleas by concerned citizens don't work, what else do we have?

If we send him one about how fucked up Iraq is, do you think he might suddenly realize his "Stay the Course" policy is getting us nowhere?

Maybe if we send him a DVD about cute black kids living in a poor, crack-ravaged neighborhood in Baltimore, he'll put some actual resources into rebuilding our cities? Maybe if they look like the Cosby kids?

Any ideas out there? Leave a comment.
