Some gossip from the White House Correspondents’ Dinner: “Kal Penn, the handsome star of Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo, was a guest of Slate editor Jacob Weisberg. Mr. Penn was with a stunning white-bow-tied young person named Jake.” [Observer]

A comedy(?) about escaping Guantanamo seems kind of like one aout escaping a Nazi internment camp, (at least the Nazis didn’t do it just to torture innocent people but who knows anymore.
I just can’t imagine being at a party with Bush and Cheny unless they barbeQued them alive for fun. Saman Rushdie was there(????)Chris Hitchens(?) no bombs ???

I don’t like Bush as much as the next guy, but saying is M Shane saying the Nazi victims were NOT innocent? Meaning they were guilty of something?

Hmm…I think that came out a bit wrong M. Shane…at any rate, I demand a picture of this stunning young Jake person :o!

I saw the movie, and the lookalike Bush smoked pot with them. Imaginations gone wild on the part of the screenwriter. Maybe he was on weed.
A few chuckles, but not hilarious.

The trailer is pretty damned funny, but maybe (or probably, based upon all the reviews) all the good parts are in there.
Which is all beside the point. Is Kal Penn on our team? (I’d be happy to have him; maybe we can trade Reichen back). And ditto to Snoodle – where are the pics of this stunning Jake person, with or without white bow-tie?

dsflood ; Sorry I thought that I’d sent a clarifying post: of course, I don’t believe that the Nazi victims were guity of anything , as are many of the people we’ve tortured etc. I was trying to say somthing to the effect that theeir visctims might have been better off being gassed than being exposed to the torture techniques in fashion since the 50’s generated by Ewan Cameron at McGill and our other torture centers. According to International Experts there is a whole large cell block of persons at Guantanamo who have been electrcuted so many times that they’re none functional (70-100+). I think that gassing would have been more humane than the “shock therapy” induced by the CIA for years. That would be my preferance!

I don’t understand half of the posts above. And what I really don’t understand is that no one has pointed how fucking hot Kal Penn is and how it would be great if he were playing for our team.

You’re right. It’s like a kick ass, brand new car was unveiled and then suddenly everyone starts talking about where the carshow model got her shoes. Weird comments.
