<![CDATA[Three years after John Berendt released his crime drama novel Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil in 1994, Clint Eastwood picked up the movie rights and filmed it. It featured a star-studded cast, and turned out to be one of the few movies Eastwood directed that he didn't at least make a cameo in, let alone act in a leading role. But what he lacked in front of the camera, he made up for on the motion picture soundtrack. Johnny Mercer and Harold Arlen wrote Ac-cent-tchu-ate The Positive in 1937, and the song was first recorded by Bing Crosby and the Andrews Sisters. It has been covered a whole bunch of times in the decades that followed, but none of them as memorable as the way Clint sang it. On NBC's Meet the Press Sunday morning with Kristen Welker, it didn't take President Donald Trump very long to channel his inner Eastwood at the non-stop negativity coming from Welker and Resistance media. ]]>
