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.)"
