We need more guys like Pritchard in the gov.


Pritchard was badass. So what that he was gay...he knew how to protect Brice. If Clinton had a guy like this during his whole monica Lewinsky deal.,Monica would have been stfu and sleeping w the fishes before she ever opened her fat ugly mouth. Why didn't ANYONE in Clintons camp shut that bitch up? Clinton wouldn't even need to be told about it , it just should have been done...then again, maybe we do have Pritchards in the Pentagon and we jsit don't hear about them because they take care of business.
That said I really liked the movie and never saw the original

After reading a lot of comments even though it doesn't say in the movie, but I feel Pritchard could be a spy. But I think the Russians made sure neither Farrell nor Pritchard knew that they were both working for the Russians. There are lots of plot questions that doesn't make sense unless Pritchard is also a Soviet spy. Then the whole movie makes sense.

Just because you've got the emotional range of a teaspoon, doesn't mean we all have !

Never thought of him being a spy, that opens up alot of new questions. We don't really know enough about his background to make that assessment but maybe they do in the book?

reply

Don't think there is a book. The film was adapted from a 1948 movie named The Big Clock. The plot is the same, but the circumstances and background are different.

You should read up on history. Thinking like that got Nixon impeached. Watergate, anybody? Creep, the plumbers, and so on. I wouldn't be surprised if Nixon wasn't involved in the murder of JFK.

What so I need to read about in history? I consider very well read and well educated, I don't think that by reading a tome on Watergate would make anymore interested in jfk or politics. I will say that the biggest farce in American politics is the fact the American people think the politicians are above being bribed or corrupted like happens in 3rd world countries. But I'll still stand behind my opinion that someone on clintons party should have made LewinskI dissappear..big mouthed tramp.

"I wouldn't be surprised if Nixon wasn't involved in the murder of JFK."

I think you meant WAS involved.

Bill Clinton was (I don't think he can function anymore now) a sexual deviant, but a brilliant politician, delegator, and consensus builder that got things done. The Republicans who to this day still resent him never got that about him and made it a morally hypocritical mission to stop him and Hillary at every turn when in fact they're no different than themselves. Now we've had 4 years of Trump who's also a sexual deviant but lacks all other faculties of governance and leadership and those same Republicans but because he pandered to their agenda the whole sexual deviancy thing is a non-issue.

Trump had 58,000 attendees in Butler, PA, the other night and, currently, the USA is one big Trump rally so, gee, I guess he is quite the "consensus builder." How many people did Biden have at his recent rallies -- 38? Trump's myriad great accomplishments prove that he's a brilliant politician, obviously because he was a successful businessman and globetrotter before entering politics at nigh 70 (in other words, he didn't spend 47 years in the DC swamp doing nothing but making himself richer). Dems/Libs/RINOs hate Trump vehemently for this reason -- because he's an effective outsider -- and especially so since he boldly stands up to the gross Leftwing fascism that's been destroying America, not to mention interrupts their globalist agenda, including the climate alarmist joke. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8455KEDitpU

As for Trump's sex life (which I could care less about, but since you brought it up), he has a ultra-sharp wife, a great marriage and a healthy family filled with exceptional people. Everyone has skeletons in their closet, but there's been zero report of Trump getting sexual favors from White House interns, like Bill. So let's not pretend there's any sort of correlation.

rally attendance doesn't mean shit

reply

It means he has the hearts of the common people who are done with LIEberal fascism, including the grossly biased lamestream media (which is basically a wing of the Democrat Party).

Speaking of which, why are businesses that decline to bake a "gay" wedding cake for legit reasons of spiritual conscience forced to shut down while designers who refuse to make Melania a dress allowed to stay in business? We've had it with this kind of Lefty double standard and hypocrisy.

and it doesn't mean shit

Correct analysis.
