It's amazing how political pundits can twist anything to fit their own biases and ignorance.
Take Andrew Klavan of the Wall Street Journal:
There seems to me no question that the Batman film "The Dark Knight," currently breaking every box office record in history, is at some level a paean of praise to the fortitude and moral courage that has been shown by George W. Bush in this time of terror and war. Like W, Batman is vilified and despised for confronting terrorists in the only terms they understand. Like W, Batman sometimes has to push the boundaries of civil rights to deal with an emergency, certain that he will re-establish those boundaries when the emergency is past.
I haven't heard such biased ignorance since someone told me that V for Vendetta was a crucifixion of the Bush Administration.
Really. Can someone, somehow, grow a clue and not be so insipidly polarized that they see political messages in stories with their own layers of "so-called" morality?
