...golden age as the creative half of "the King and Cy," Feuer oversaw every detail of his shows, sometimes taking the director's seat. Famously tough--he feuded with George S. Kaufman, Bob Fosse and Frank Loesser--he discovered Julie Andrews, whose career he launched with 1954's The Boy Friend, and helped turn I Love Paris and C'est Magnifique--from Cole Porter's critically panned hit show Can-Can-- into standards...
When I called on Libyan Leader Muammar Gaddafi in his Bedouin tent last year, he was at pains to explain how he and President Bush were on the same wavelength. In all his years as a bad boy in the eyes of the West, he said, Libya was simply doing what Bush did when he invaded Iraq.

The lands they inhabit are richly detailed (thanks to years of research by Lasseter, co-director Joe Ranft and their team) and worlds apart: the NASCAR circuit, where autos and egos collide at 180 m.p.h., and a 1950s-ish town, keeping a sense of community...
...with a bit of maneuvering and a lot of carefully couched phrases, Bush pulled wool over the eyes of most of America. The punchline came in 2004. At election time, long after the country club set should have noticed that their boy George had turned on them, the upper middle class turned out in huge numbers to give Georgie a second term. Their time and money built Bush’s campaign, and their votes sealed the deal. How’s that for irony...
