Now the Spanish have gone and done it!

Spain!
First, they opted out of George W. Bush's Iraqi war. Now, they are allowing gays to marry!
I guess they have decided to adopt the motto Make Love Not War, an American saying from the Vietnam war period. During George's drinking years. Perhaps that's why he doesn't recall it.

I think George prefers the motto Oh! What A Lovely War. Actually, it's the title of a stage play, made into a movie in 1969. Also during the president's drinking years. He probably doesn't remember it either. The title is a just the littlest bit ironic, since it shows the generals of WW I having a great time, savoring the power, the prestige, the fame, the fortune. All the while the troops are fulfilling their designation of Cannon Fodder, dying by(literally) the millions at the western front. It's difficult to follow of course, since it's a British film, but it may still have instructive value today, more's the pity.

A more recent movie with some thrilling (well, chilling) war scenes, seeming almost to be more about the Iraq war than about WW I, A Very Long Engagement is well worth viewing. It's French, naturally.

Can't seem to find an American war movie that isn't just a John Wayne movie at heart. Well, except for Saving Private Ryan, which has been banned from viewing as being too violent! Don't want to have violence on our flatscreen teevee now, do we! OhNo! Keep it confined to the countries we invade and occupy.


I see I've wandered from the initial topic a bit.
Originally I just wanted to inquire if President Bush is worried that the Spanish are going to destroy his marriage just the way he claims allowing an American citizen to marry his boyfriend (or, to marry her girlfriend) will.
Personally, I think divorce destroys more marriages than marriages do.
But then, I'm not married.
