Iron Will

A brief reprieve from the political before we get to the good shit next week...

Clint Eastwood is a great director. And as an actor...well, he's very talented at being a scowling bad ass. Doesn't matter if it's a cop, boxing instructor, cowboy, whatever. Dude can scowl. But at some point his capacity to kick ass has gotta lose some believability. Take "Gran Torino." Looks good, but I think those Hmong gangsters would wreck his ass

NEXT WEEK: Bush leaves office. Big party here at the Bors Blog. Two comics aren't going to be enough for this momentous event--I've got four. Plus Bush era favorites from the archive. Don't miss it!
