1 A tragic comedy set in the dark ages about two thugs turned fraudsters who used people shamelessly for money and publicity only to get caught up in a perfect storm of their own making. The ending won't be happy. McKay gets drawn and quartered after blubbering like a child. His parts are tarred and hung in an iron cage near the mouth of the Thames. Galloway, the gritfter's grifter, tries in vain to pathetically charm, talk and bluster his way out of a traitor's fate even as they take him to the gallows. The thing ends with seafolk commenting about how even the birds wouldn't bother with his thoroughly rotten flesh the day he was quartered and hung across the Thames from McKay.

3 Let them waste their time and money on the project. When Galloway is convicted and imprisoned for taking oil bribes, scamming the public (the Maryam Fund), and lying under oath to Congress, the audience for such a film will rapidly decrease to art house levels, at best. In the meantime, it keeps the whole bunch of them happily busy and out of trouble. Much better than noisily unemployed and bothering us about Saving the Whales, or whatever their latest passion might be.

4 Did Marion Barry lose popularity after his convictions?

5 James: Marion Barry, while admittedly no longer a tax payer, is still very, very popular. I even hear rumours that the Vermont 'screamer' and his staff are working on a Barry-Clinton ticket for 2008. Certainly has a nice ring to it.
