Remember "Chef" from Apocalpyse Now ?
When he got off the boat to go and look for some mangoes? He was going to be a saucier down in New Orleans. Then he is chased back to the boat by a "fucking tiger"...Sobbing uncontrollably, he says: "I didn't go to the eighth grade for this shit!! They can kiss my ass in the county square!! (more sobbing) Anybody ever feel like Chef? :)

1. "Never get out of the boat!"
A great performance from Frederick Forrest.

Yeah, there have been times I felt like that.

5. Also a great role as a prison guard in Against the Wall
The movie about the Attica riot. I love Frederick Forrest. He plays nuts very well.

3. Great role - great acting. I love all those guys on the boat and the
scene when Martin Sheen tells the skipper that he wants to go about 70 "clicks" up the river. Also when the skipper tells him that "when I look at you I see trouble". What a movie!!

7. In his private moments
Bush is probably much like Kurtz. Memos sitting on his desk, red ink scrawled haphazardly across the page: "LET FREEDOM REIGN. INCINERATE THEM ALL!!"

Actually, Cheyney would probably do better in the part of Kurtz, with Bush in Dennis Hopper's drug-addled photographer role: "Do you know the other day he said to me that "OM" is the middle two letters in the word "BOMB"? The man has enlarged my mind!"
