I think anyone that wishes to discuss Moore's movie should go see it. Knowledge is power.
You're right! I need to rethink my political position...He supports the war too!!! :DQuote:

I just saw the movie last weekend. I have to admit it was a bit of an eye-opener but I also went into it expecting a "slightly tilted" point of view. (feel the sarcasm)
Generally I liked the movie and it was interesting to hear his point of view, but he's a bit of a conspiracy-theorist type guy.
Keep in mind he represents the EXTREME left, and not all liberals are that obsessed.
You certain of that? :devil:Quote:

The point is that Pete Townsend still had rights over his/their song. And, they have to get permission to use it. He was under no obligation to do so.
OK, so the guy used his credit card for "research." Yeah, like I ever give out my credit card to anybody for anything...much less to some shady website on the 'net.
And no, I still haven't seen the movie yet. Since Moore's stated purpose is to defeat Bush in November...which is in direct conflict with what my goal is...there is no way I'm going to give him my hard earned money so that he can forward his cause. Sorry, ain't gonna happen.
Then don't try and coment on something you haven't seenQuote:

There is a scene in Michael Moore's (search) new film that shows President Bush at the moment he was told the U.S. was under attack. As the camera focuses in on an obviously anguished president, Mr. Moore provides his own commentary of what he thinks President Bush was thinking at the time.
But Mr. Moore’s musings must now be juxtaposed with the account of retired Lt. General Thomas Keck, who spent two hours with President Bush on that fateful day. Gen. Keck wrote to The New York Times, whose columnist Paul Krugman had praised Moore for his make-believe account.
Says Gen. Keck: “As commander of the 8th Air Force, I was present when President Bush stopped to deliver a message to the American people at Barksdale Air Force Base. Throughout my career, I have seen the best and the worst of people under extreme pressure. President Bush arrived at Barksdale deeply saddened and obviously concerned, but he was a man on a mission, courageous and decisive. He was totally in command. I have kept relatively quiet about my experiences with the president on 9/11, but I cannot sit back and allow Hollywood and the media to rewrite history. I was there, and I consider myself a good judge of leadership. We were fortunate that President Bush was our commander in chief on 9/11.”

To be honest I don't think anyone could have not been a little dazed by the info..
