hey all, I was told about a book they were talking about on cnn yesterday thats being released by the same publisher who released the encyclopedia sized bill clinton memoires. The new book being released is abouting killing President Bush and even how to do it. I think this is probably one of the most disgusting things I've ever heard about. I don't care if it's "political satire" as they r trying to say it is, because u know there r people in the extreme who will take what the book says to heart and might possibly try to do as the book says. I mean what the hell is wrong with our country when we are publishing books about why and how to kill individual people. This is just as bad as that assasin handbook that was in the news a few years ago except with one extremely high level target.

If you believe that Sadam having been left to himself, wouldn't develope some kind of WOMD to detonate on american soil, if givin the opportunity, your only fooling yourself. The fact is, we were attacked 2 times under Clinton, once on our soil, and he didn't do a thing, and no sooner does he leave office we get hit with 9/11, it seem's doing nothing is more harmful to America, then meeting the enemy head on. At last check we haven't been attacked since 9/11, but Bush isn't getting the job done? I say no new's is good new's! I sure hope Gibb's doesn't adhere to that kind of thinking during away games, we would't want to make the home crowd angry by beating them, would we? |

btw, in case you don't know, there were no useable water trucks in Iraq after the invasion. Might not mean much to you, but saddam had russian generals as consultants, and they know that you can ship anything in a water truck, flush it out with jet fuel, and it'll pass american chemical sensors... and guess why the water trucks couldn't be used?
...they were contaminated with jet fuel. |

Lengthy, but well documented, article on Michael Moore's slight of hand.

Whatever the facts, Moore's '9/11' should worry GOP

I was reading the article that cpayne posted until I came across this part:
"Fahrenheit 9/11 begins on election night 2000. We are first shown the Al Gore rocking on stage with famous musicians and a high-spirited crowd. The conspicuous sign on stage reads “Florida Victory.” Moore creates the impression that Gore was celebrating his victory in Florida." Ummm, hello, that was meant to be a fictitious scene. I thought that was pretty clear. |

Well I think that's the problem. This is supposedly a documentary, which means a factual film. Documentaries aren't supposed to include fictitious scenes and satirical voice-overs.

I guess if one doesn't understand Moore's humor then I guess an opening scene like that could be 'confusing'.
Moore isn't trying to deceive anyone with that opening scene, most people laughed at the sight of Gore celebrating his "Florida victory". Moore has always mixed humor and satire in with his work. Are humor and satire not allowed in documentaries either? So let's call it a film or movie then, who cares what it's classifed as. |

Ok, so you don't like the first point. Read the others and tell us what you think of those.
