HBO’s Florida Recount Movie
Hey, remember that fiasco that happened back in 2000, when we elected Al Gore as president but got George “pretend cowboy” Bush instead. Well, now you can relive that moment on May 25th with the HBO film Recount starring Kevin Spacey, Dennis Leary, Laura Dern and Tom Wilkinson. What a great cast! I can’t wait to see how they’ve portrayed my home state at the moment we fucked up the world.
I don’t just blame other Floridians either as I had a stake in the mistake too. In 2000, as a protest vote I decided to vote for Ralph Nader (obviously having no clue it would be so close), then I watched the election coverage and rooted for Al Gore. My best friend still likes to remind me how I helped fuck everything up. Thanks Brian!

Alex, what memories you bring back! Thanks for the nostalgia (Ralph Nader) and the laugh (pretend cowboy).

Apryl-Yeah I can’t wait to watch it too! Unfortunately I will have to wait longer to see it as we have no HBO here in Amsterdam. So it might be awhile before I get to.
Jody- Your welcome, thank you too! And hmm, Ralph Nader is certainly a bad memory that unfortunately still lingers today, wanting to destroy more campaigns for his own ego.
I haven’t heard a peep about this – thank you for posting it! Guess it’s time to call and get HBO flipped on
You’re very welcome Heather! Glad people are interested!
[...] Whores can manage a new film on HBO, about Florida Recounts in 2000, yet they are too putrid in their brains, to stand up for the theft [...]
