So how did "Bruno" creator and star Sacha Baron Cohen pull it off? Paul says the encounter started very professionally

Only in Windows unfortunately...or maybe not only in Windows, but at least not in Gnome...at least without some configuration that I don't know about. It's the Character Map and copy/paste for me! ;)

For gnome, I think you can maybe press ctrl+shift+u, type 00FC, then press spacebar. You can replace 00FC with the hex combination for any unicode character. The uppercase letter is 00DC. I'm not on Linux at the moment, but hopefully it works :)

A list of various unicode hex combinations:

Dr Paul handled this perfectly! He basically laughed it off, which is the exact right thing to do. His Sound of Music comment always cracks me up.

YouTube - Brüno & Ron Paul Scene (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXxbQrl3UX8)

Spoiler Alert.

The interview about the movie was good but I dunno if the movie is gonna do any good to Ron Paul at all. This looks pretty degrading to me.

These movie critics (http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20290024,00.html) justified Bruno's assault on RP (the video is embedded about halfway down the page)
