Well, what do you think of 24 now? The President, perhaps a similarity to Bush? (but it won’t be, it’s on Fox), IS the terrorist.

TERRORISTS SHOOT CIVILIANS, DON’T THEY?

Life Lessons from Jack Bauer and 24 Kudos to the producers, writers and director of last night’s two hour installment of 24 for providing the most powerful and realistic portrayal of the horror of terrorism that I have yet seen…

Am I the only one to think about “Shane” after the first 4 hours? Bauer isn’t splitting wood, but he is doing chores. And he really is looking for another line of work.

This doesn’t go too far, but it’s a nice grace note.

24: The Mayhem Has Begun (Russian Style)

FoxTrot (Mon 16 Jan 05) by Bill Amend
It’s begun, and boy what a doozie the first two hours of 24 were. To fend off last year’s criticisms by CAIR over the show’s treatment of Arabs, this year the writers decide to pick and poke at our old nemeses…

Interesting article. I have not watched the show but I must say if this Jack Bauer were a real person he would have been fired from his government position long ago and probably would have been jailed. Its to bad more people in the real world do not have the moral clarity this tv character has.

One important difference is that I trust Jack Bauer to break the rules in pursuit of what’s best for the American people. Wish I could say the same for President Bush.

The Jack Bauer Power Hour

As someone who has watched every minute of Fox’s 24 since the series began in 2001, tonight’s fifth season premier completely blew me away.When we last left CTU Special Agent Jack Jack Bauer……..

Outstanding and as well writen an article as I’ve read in a long time. My only quibble and it’s minor, is that as was described in the piece “recoil at some of Jacks tactics” and something about “handwringing” never crossed my mind even slightly. His tanacity and clarity are perhaps the difference between being described as a thug and what he truly represents. The kind of qualities we would hope for in all of those budding Bauers who are actually assigned the harsh and real responsability of securing not just our nation but those dedicated to freedom and creation of building and bringing the world to a better place.

Those foolish enough to believe that hoping and wishing for peace without a price are part of the reason bad people have been enabled but I digress…
