The Back Room

Welcome to The Back Room! Step in, read, write and link with other sites that focus on the Bush Administration, their lies and our demand for the truth. The Back Room was created over many dinners, glasses of wine and "pints" of frustration over where our country is headed. We need more voices, your voices,to help us uncover and reclaim our democracy.

Jarhead


Charee and I went and saw, "Jarhead" over the weekend. Although, not Oscar material, Jake Gyllenhaal, Peter Sarsgaard and Jamie Foxx hold the movie up with believable bravado and sensitivity.

The story line focuses on Desert Storm and a new marine recuit (Gyllenhall), who states that the only reason he's in the military is because "he got lost on the way to college".

The most interesting part of the movie is the underlying fact that we are still in "the desert", many years later.
