President Bush 'assassinated' In New TV Docudrama



This is a direct threat

to the sitting president

of our country!


Bush is shot by a sniper in a scene from Death of a President.


This is the dramatic moment when President George Bush is gunned down by a sniper after a public address at a hotel, in a gripping new docudrama soon to be aired on TV.

Set around October 2007, President Bush is assassinated as he leaves the Sheraton Hotel in Chicago.

Death of a President, shot in the style of a retrospective documentary, looks at the effect the assassination of Bush has on America in light of its 'War on Terror'.

The 90 minutes feature explores who could have planned the murder, with a Syrian-born man wrongly put in the frame.

Peter Dale, head of More4, which is due to air the film on October 9, said the drama was a "thought-provoking critique" of contemporary US society.

He said: "It's an extraordinarily gripping and powerful piece of work, a drama constructed like a documentary that looks back at the assassination of George Bush as the starting point for a very gripping detective story."
"It's a pointed political examination of what the War on Terror did to the American body politic.
"I'm sure that there will be people who will be upset by it but when you watch it you realise what a sophisticated piece of work it is.
"It's not sensationalist, or simplistic but a very thought-provoking, powerful drama. I hope people will see that the intention behind it is good."
The film will premier at the Toronto Film Festival in September and was written and directed by Gabriel Range.

The drama takes the form of a fictional documentary looking back at the assassination of Mr Bush in October 2007, after he has delivered a speech to business leaders in Chicago.

When Mr Bush arrives in the city he is confronted by a massive demonstration against the Iraq war and is gunned down by a sniper as he leaves the venue. The hunt for Mr Bush's killer focuses on a Syrian-born man, Jamal Abu Zikri.

Death of a President will use a combination of archive footage, CGI special effects and scripted scenes.

Actors play the fictional secret service agents and other aides who are with Mr Bush when he is shot and recall the incident in interviews recorded for the retrospective documentary.

Death of a President also looks at the differing viewpoints of the pro- and anti-Iraq war lobbies and the impact of Mr Bush's war on terror on the US.

Death of a President has been made by Borough Films, the independent producer responsible for two similar BBC2 fictional pieces in the style of retrospective documentaries.

It has been produced by Gabriel Range, Simon Finch and Ed Guiney. It is a Canadian film.


Wild Thing's comment.....

In all my life, I have never seen such vile hate that is now spewing from liberals. Honestly, it is frightening to see them display such abject hatred. Oh, sure, it's just a movie some will claim, but the fact is that out of the abundance of the heart doth the mouth speak.

I believe these people secretly desire someone to really assassinate President Bush and thus put out such suggestive fodder hoping that someone a bit more wacked-out will actually do the job. It is a vile and disgusting display!

Liberals have converted to Islam and suicide belts will be next. They have always had weak minds and empty souls, and their behavior over the last 6 years proves it.

This is absolutely disgusting....to do this to ANY sitting President is an absolute evil!!!

I'm glad that they are debuting this film, just before the election in November! Go ahead lefties, you came from hell just like the terrorists. You just keep showing the world why you are evil, how evil you truly are.

This film is a call to assassinate Bush and I am MAD AS HELL about it!!! A obvious recruitment film for an assassin

This isn't artistic freedom. This is celluloid assault upon the entire United States by imprinting in people's minds the possibility of killing the current head of state. Movies are more powerful than people imagine. We like to think art mimics politics. In reality, art has always been set up to manipulate and direct our lives, especially politics. That's why filmed propaganda like this is so lethal.

President Bush will be kicking Jihadi ass until Jan. 20th, 2009!!!

Just goes to show how desperate the loser party really is. The can't win on debate, on performance, on defense or the economy. They can only resort to scare and smear tactics, hate mongering and direct attacks in the environment they control, the media. They're marginalized after 73 years of the "Raw Deal" of FDR they can't stand the nation running quite well without them in power, so the best they can come up with is a presidential assassination by proxy. Damn they sure must want Cheney in there bad, and he'd be eligible for a second term too. HA HA HA. Sniff some more of Stuart Smalley's Air America you Dimwits!!!

Good one Jack, I was so upset about this I had forgotten about Cheney. Your right the Dems would hate that too, to have Cheney as President.

Thanks Jack!

Since this is foreign made, Canada, can we not forbid it being shown here? Also I thought that there were laws that forbade threatening a sitting President life and I think that that is what this.

Death is a cornerstone of the liberal agenda. If "it" is going to be in the way with your lifestyle just get rid of "it". If an individual does not completely agree with your platform (Joe Lieberman)...purge them. My bet is deep down these folks already know the Congress is less up for grabs than they thought so...kill him. They want to kill the one President that is willing to stand up to people that want to KILL MY FAMILY...and are people THAT HAVE THE MEANS TO KILL MY FAMILY. Liberals are, in my opinion, in league with terrorists and only worry about getting POWER...just like terrorists and HATE just like terrorists. Liberalism is a sickness and needs to be ground into the dogshit of its own existence.

I am probably ranting a bit much...but liberals ARE traitors.

DE644 I thought so too,and I hope there is a stop to this entering the USA.

Sierrahome, I agree they are in a league with the terrorists. You did a great rant.

Posted by: Wild Thing at August 31, 2006 06:32 PM


Sierrahome said it better than I can.
Liberals do not tolerate a loyal opposition. They want to take our freedoms with resposibility and give those freedoms to the irresponsible.

Tincan Sailor, thank you soooo much for that. I appreciate it.

Calm down. People have been wanting to assassinate Bush since the "war" started. He's the most disliked president in American history, no matter what sort of movies come out, people will be wanting to kill him as long as he lives.

J., this is not funny it is very serious. And in America it is against the law to threaten the President of the United States.
