President Bush is the "Dark Knight"

I watched "The Dark Knight" last night. Even my wife thought it was an incredible...amazing movie. That says a lot! This alone should make it worthy of several Oscar nods.

Aside from being an incredible watch...it is a pro-Bush movie. Maybe/probably not intentionally. But I can't help but think of our current president as I watched it.

1) Batman is hated by the people he protects...so is President Bush.

2) Batman temporarily extends the limits of his authority to do what is necessary in the most extreme and dangerous of circumstances...so has President Bush.

3) Batman is willing to be hated to do what is necessary and right. He is not moved from his mission by opinion polls...So is President Bush.

4) Batman understands he is dealing with pure evil that just loves "to see things burn"...So is President Bush.

5) Batman made some errors of judgment (...to err is human)...You guessed it...So has President Bush.

How appropriate the movie has come out as our President ends his controversial and very consequential 2 terms.
