wag the deficit

a cat explains how dogs get wagged
"...the 1997 classic “wag the dog” was seen as a bit of wickedly fun lampoon at the time but, like cult classic “idiocracy” it seems to get less funny and more prophetic with each passing year. (and seriously, if you have not seen these movies, drop what you are doing and watch them. c’mon, WtD is dustin hoffman, deniro, anne heche, woody harrelson, denis leary, and willie nelson. you have no idea what you’re missing.) the quotes are gold, esp hoffman as motss, the hollywood producer hired to make a fake war for TV.
