A Squeeky Clean Politician

Mr Smith has the Floor!

These days with our Parliament being televised live, it is clear to see that even in those days at the Senate in DC, things can be as bad.

A simpleton nomination to the Senate sparked a movie that is good to the very end. James Stewart's acting in this greatest of Frank Capra movies was just as great like in It's a wonderful Life!

Nothing much in the plot. The great thing is that following Standing Orders, as long as the Senator refused to give in while he has the floor, the situation can be brought to the ridiculous extreme with the support of the chair!

If you want fun time with old movies, this is surely one of them!
