Bush, and the subsequent investigation into the crime. The film follows a number of Talking Heads as they discuss the events and their consequences, including the President's staff, journalists, lawyers, law enforcement, forensic professionals, and suspects.Controversial upon release, the film did not make a profit and has largely faded into obscurity.

The Bad Guy Wins: Even though Bush's assassination is a Foregone Conclusion given the film's title and premise, not only are the police and FBI unable to find the real culprit, but a likely innocent man remains in prison and former Vice President (now President) Dick Cheney has used the assassination to extend the government's surveillance powers. Furthermore, the identity of who leaked the classified documents that helped the real assassin carry out their plan remains unknown.

Assassination Attempt: Posits the fall-out of the hypothetical assassination of George W. Bush by a disgruntled Syrian-American man. President Cheney authorizes PATRIOT Act II, authorizing even more extensive invasions of privacy and sending the U.S. on the way to becoming a Police State. However, the end of the film reveals that the real assassin was the father of a U.S. soldier who was killed in Iraq.
