W. – Well worth a watch

When the Olivier Stone film W. was first released I gave it a miss.  I have no sympathy for Bush or his policies.  What the film portrays is Bush the man, what drove him, his family relationships and his simplicity of thought.

Two scenes stand out.  One, the discussion when the strategy for the invasion of Iraq was thrashed out and two, when he was told there were no WMD’s.

Watch it.  It may not change your views but it certainly paints Bush in different light.
