Wag the Dog: an obscure film directed by obscure director Barry Levinson (Diner, Rain Man, Good Morning Vietnam), co-written by obscure writer David Mamet, starring obscure actors Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman, Anne Heche, and Woody Harrelson, that received tons and tons of obscure publicity during Clinton's second term, when "wagging the dog" became obscurely synonymous with using war as a distraction from Presidential scandal. Yeah, I guess I should have linked to it.
