Yesterday I had the pleasure of speaking with Robert Davi, the amazing actor who has been in EVERYTHING.  We talked about politics and his movie, The Dukes, which has already won numerous awards at the Rome Film Festival, Monte Carlo Film Festival, among many others.  In addition to playing the lead role (Danny DePasquale — no relation — HA!) Robert Davi wrote, produced and directed The Dukes.  In the next few weeks I’ll have a column/review of the movie.  Until then, check out the synopsis and preview here.  The movie opens on November 14.

From IMDB:

The Dukes,(Chazz Palminteri and Robert Davi) a Doo Wop group, were on top of the world at 17, now are struggling for survival in 2008. Their manager (Peter Bogdanovich) is desperately trying to get them work but is met with failure at every turn. Finally pushed to the extreme, they pull a heist only a fool would attempt, which leaves them even more desperate. When all seems lost, they find themselves. Underneath the laughter, “The Dukes” is a film that explores the intricacies of re-defining yourself; not only dealing with lost fame but applies to anyone whoever found themselves at the bottom of the mountain looking up where they once were; and how, in changing times, to hold onto your true self.

The American Conservative Union recently launched its “Come Clean” Campaign:

ACU is taking the lead in pointing out what they say and what they mean are two different things and calling on them to “Come Clean.”

We are going to point out what they really mean, what their real agenda is for the American people and expose them when the truth is found. And, we need YOUR HELP NOW to get it done.

Liberal activists and leaders are raising millions to attack our values, we must fight back, now.  We need a grassroots army to rise up and take them on.

JOHN HOFMEISTER (Shell Oil President): I can guarantee to the American people, because of the inaction of the United States Congress ever increasing prices, unless the demand comes down and the five dollars will look like a very low price in the years to come if we are prohibited from finding new reserves, new opportunities to increase supplies.

My esteemed American Conservative Union has posted its questionnaire to the Presidential candidates.  My favorite question is “Why Do You Want to Be President?“  And I’m not just saying that because it’s the only question I submitted that made it through to the finals.
