AEHQ: Obama Administration to Release Movie

“Game Change,” the HBO movie about John McCain, Sarah Palin and the 2008 elections, debuts this weekend.  But next week, the Obama re-election campaign will attempt a Hollywood makeover of the President’s record in office.

FOX News Radio White House Correspondent Mike Majchrowitz reports from the West Wing:

From America’s Election Headquarters…

(Hanks) “Do we look at the day’s headlines, or do we remember what we, as a country, have been through?”

…That’s the challenge posed by Oscar winner Tom Hanks in the short Hollywood film being released by the Obama campaign next week.  Obama campaign Press Secretary Ben Labolt explains the premise:

(Labolt) “It’s about the tough calls the President has made over the past three years in the face of historic challenges.”

Republican Party Spokesperson Kirsten Kurkowski says it’s another example of a star-struck President.

(Kurkowski) “It’s, you know, obviously all of the Hollywood influence.  It’s true to President Obama’s style that we’ve seen over the last several years.”

Kurkowski says it says a lot about the President’s accomplishments, that it would only fill a 17-minute movie.
