"Good 5 Cent Cigar"----Student newspaper at the University of Rhode Island

 

    According to the Kansas City Star (1/26) recent Kansas State graduate Jeremy Parker was attempting to embarrass President Bush during a Q & A session (below) this week when he asked Bush whether he had seen the gay-themed movie "Brokeback Mountain."  In fact, Parker admitted that he had not seen the movie.

    "I wanted to see if I could single-handedly end the whole town hall question-and-answer, folksy-type persona that he's going for now," said the former student president candidate (busted for campaign violations last year).

    According to the Star:  "Has he seen the film? Nope."

 

President Bush has so far skipped BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN
 
      DRUDGE: During a Q&A session at Kansas State University today, a student asked Bush: "I was just wanting to get your opinion on BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN if you'd seen it yet."

The crowd laughed softly before the student said loudly: "You would love it! You should check it out."

"I haven't seen it," Bush said flatly. "I'd be glad to talk about ranching, but I haven't seen the movie," he said to laughter. "I've heard about it."

The president waited a second or two, then said, according to a transcript: "I hope you go -- (laughter) -- you know -- (laughter) -- I hope you go back to the ranch and the farm, is what I was about to say. I haven't seen it. (Laughter, applause.)"
