This proves that America easily sees through Moore's schlockumentary lies.

I predict that as soon as all of George Soros' brownshirts have seen it twice, attendance will drop off faster than "Around the World in 80 Days". In 3 weeks Fahrenheit 911 will be showing ONLY on college campuses.

Wish you were right, but this is an unscientific web poll. I participated in the Freep when it was posted here myself. Within minutes of posting, Bush wen from behind to ahead.

It doesn't mean that the results don't mirror reality. It simply means that this web poll cannot be used as evidence of such.

"Was it Freeped?"

Yes, it was. I dutifully answered the call to Freep this yesterday. This, like all online polling, means very little although it is fun to see the polls go as one would like.

Then again, unlike some here, I believe Freeping does have some benefits. Most people are sheep and want to be on the side of the majority. No doubt some will see these results and place themselves firmly in the Bush camp, or at the very least be embarrassed to speak positively about Michael Moore.

Freeping counters the biased media.

Agreed, but an interactive poll proves nothing, as we FReepers manipulate them all the time ourselves. OTOH, I cannot think of a sane soul that would waste the cash on Jabba's latest movie other than lefty die-hards. Buh-bye, Mikey!

You're right, it was wonderful. So true and so deep. I was going to vote for Bush but now I see what an evil man he is. Please say hello to Moby for me.

"I don't think it will have much of an effect on the election because he's [Moore] such a far-out figure...He lives in a different world than the rest of us. He's a hypocrite and it's a distortion of reality."

"He [Moore] splices things together to serve his purpose," Coats said. "He's really just a propagandist."

Senior Patrick Ockerse said he [Moore] didn't agree with the way Moore tries to convince people his movies are documentaries when they are really editorials.

"He [Moore] plays on the moods and opinions of his audience rather than showing the straight-out facts," Ockerse said. "It's all shock value. The public needs to know the facts and not be swayed with opinionated pieces like his."

"The problem with Moore's films is that it is difficult to distinguish the propagandist material from the facts."

There is nothing patriotic for a film maker to purposely slander a President by stating Bush let Saudis leave the country without proper screening and suggesting a collusion with them. THE TRUTH IS AS YOU KNOW: Richard Clarke, himself, said he gave all approvals for the Saudis to leave and there was FBI questioning of those for whom he deemed it necessary. Pedal your lies elsewhere, Troll!
