You mean, the same way the Administration "underestimated" the threat posed by bin Laden? The same they "understimated" the potential damage of Hurricane Katrina? The same way they "underestimated" the insurgecy in Iraq? Seems to be a whole lot of (as Bush would say) "misunderestimating" going on... Peace.

Imagine Me & You in select theaters January 27th

IMAGINE ME & YOU begins as a young bride discovers love at first sight on the day of her wedding . . . but not with the groom.  A refreshingly unconventional and witty comedy about looking at love a little differently, starring Piper Perabo, Lena Headey, and Matthew Goode.
