HOLLYWOOD TARGETS JEB (puke inducing)
Daily Variety | October 15, 2002 | staff written

Posted on 10/17/2002 10:51:41 AM PDT by Deb

Did Florida Gov. Jeb Bush's ratings in the upcoming November election fall 6-8% because of the statewide showings of the docu "Unprecedented"?

That's what exec producer Robert Greenwald says he'd like to think of his docu. "The film is an expose of the voting rights violations in Florida. It's a permanent record," Greenwald says. Among sponsors of the showings in Florida, he says, were the Barbra Streisand and (studio head) Alan Horn foundations.

After tonight's DGA (Directors Guild of America) screening, a panel including People For the American Way prez Ralph G. Neas, Vincent Bugliosi and the docu's producers Joan Selser and Richard Perez will discuss "the ramifications of the 2000 election and the implications for the health of the democracy."

Just another example of "fair and balanced" Hollywood style.

Don't know if Florida's GOP is aware of this.

This is unbelievable! Bugliosi wrote a "book" detailing how W. stole the election.

Credible? About as much as Dershowitz.

No one outside the Hollywood community as even seen the movie. I wouldn't have even known about it if it wasn't for FR. The movie had no impact on their stupid, unscientific polls.

I heard it was being shown in Florida and people were getting riled up again. I read it here on FR a couple of days ago. Sounded like the DNC was given a copy and mcauliffe took it down there. I think gore was there at the same time. I cannot verify what I read. Perhaps a Florida freeper can.

We got outraged over this a few weeks back. I couldn't find the link, but this revisionist nonsense is being shown in most every Florida city, then stopping at various cities until ending up at the Hollywood Bowl on election day, I think.

I sent out my standard election fraud letter w/links, etc., to the schools hosting the film. Maybe a secretary will see reason and change a heart or two. If anyone needs a good election fraud response suitable for e-mailing, ping me.

Last night on Donohue he mentioned to Harry Belafonte, the "BBC reporter" who was on his show talking about the "Texas company" hired by the Republicans, to wipe blacks off voting lists. Of course this is a total lie and if the "BBC reporter" is the same one I saw doing the completely bogus "report", he was a goofy American, leftist, print guy, who always wears a white panama hat and has never been able to get a job at an American news outlet.

His report, which was the official BBC story on the 2000 election fiasco in Florida, was the most biased, anti-Bush/GOP/Jeb piece of leftist propaganda I have ever seen on the BBC...and that's sayin' something.

You weren't supposed to know about it.

If you notice, the article says Streisand and Alan Horn's foundations paid for the showings. So it wasn't a doc that was released to the theaters, it was just shown in select areas of FL (probably black and non-Cuban hispanic) to make the voters who might stay home, so mad they do everything they can to get to the polls and vote Democrat.

The thing 'rats fear most is that their well-programmed voter base stays home. This "film" is the bloody shirt.

Wow. Someone needs to call these individuals on their inflammatory language and slander. It's more dangerous than crying fire in a crowded theater or a false accusation of rape.

This article from Frontpagemag. is the best I've seen on the damage the DNC lies of "republican racism" cause to the children in the inner cities. Some were so afraid that President Bush would make them slaves they cried. There's a Biblical term for what the Dems. are doing to these children and it's an act far worse than breaking any law of man.

I can only stand one of these stories a day. The injustice and double standard inflicted on conservatives by the Left, is the great story of the past 40+ years. Unfortunately, it will be another 50 to 100 before anyone will know.

I'll never forget the book he wrote about the Manson family and their "Hells Angels" "connections". He described the "colors" of "outlaw motorcyclists" as "the colorful plastic streamers they hang from the handgrips of their handlebars". No kidding.
