An American Carol

The wife and I saw David Zucker's An American Carol today, and it was indeed pretty funny - especially if you're a political junkie and smart-ass (that would be, um, me.) OK, it's not quite Airplane! funny all the time (the subject matter is rather more serious), and some of the slapstick is more stick than slap, but it's still worth going out to the theatre for a few hours. Doubly so as it makes all kinds of fun of Michael Moore and the Left. Kelsey Grammer was great as George Patton, and I loved the ACLU "zombies."

For all my Anglican/Episcopalian readers - make sure to catch the "Episcopalian Suppository Bomb" reference. (It's supposed to be a joke. If they only knew...)
