After taking out a massive life insurance policy on himself and hiring a hit man, Democratic Sen. Bulworth decides to have some fun and tell the truth as he sees it in rap rhythm and with lots of F-words. Then he decides he doesn't want to die, and intermixes being late for campaign events, giving interviews which lambast the right-wing media conspiracy for failing to promote "that's right, socialism," and chasing a skirt, with trying to un-hire the Mafia boss in charge of his murder. All the while proving: white guys can be cool, too, in a geeky sort of way, and even gangstas respect caring.
