Commander in Chief

Last night nothing much on TV so got conned into watching this TV show called "Commander In Chief". Basic plot - woman president of USA, good woman, has a wholesome family, loyal advisors, hard working and full of compassion and all that. She takes the hard decisions and feels bad when things go wrong.

Totally divorced from reality. Felt kinda sick that someone would actually make a show like that. So used to politicians being slimy, lazy, corrupt, with dysfunctional families, and no values whatsoever. What went through those producers heads? Did they get paid by George W and his cronies to paint a rosy picture of the White House? Or is there a worldwide fund by politicians promoting shows portraying leaders in a good light?
