ShopNBC ruins "It's a Wonderful LIfe" with Poppy Bush narrating...
Actually, it's not a bad idea to narrate a film for the visually impaired...but looks like the Bush dynasty has reached beyond MSNBC and CNBC to now intrude on popular films....

on Christmas, no less.

The 'hosts' touted the film and then showed a clip of Poppy at the microphone recording narration.

2. Frank Capra should be rolling over in his grave!!!
I am so glad I was too overwhelmed with washing dishes to see this, if this happened this evening.

3. ShopNBC????
This is the lowest network on the GE food chain...you should probably get a thank-you letter and some stock options for being one of the two (the other being the guy paid to run the thing) to watch it.

Any Bush is an automatic zap on this remote...somehow not seeing the Crusty old weasel-dick narrating a movie I've seen so much I never have a desire to see it again on a network best known for selling cheap import junk to fools with channel changers and credit cards. Nope...don't think this is going to ruin my holiday.

BTW...for a great Capra holiday movie, I always recommend "Meet John Doe"

4. "If I can just kill off the George Bailey's of the world ...."

Poppy has always wanted to be the emporer of pottersville.
