I was online this afternoon, reading up on Sen. James Webb of Virginia. Some delusional Democrats have started tossing his name around as a possible VP candidate with Barry Obama. I knew a little bit about Sen. Webb, but one thing I learned today was that he produced and wrote the story for one of the better guy movies of recent years, Rules of Engagement with Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L. Jackson (the definitive guy flick costars). Directed by William Friedkin (The French Connection, The Exorcist, and Sorcerer, three other guy flicks I loved).
Webb also had an impressive military career, unlike me. The thing I liked best about being in the army was that I could cuss as much as I wanted and never stand out in a crowd.
If the Dems ever recover from the disaster that the 2008 campaign is turning out to be, it'll be guys like Wes Clark and Jim Webb who are leading the way.
Yes, yes and yes.
