I'll repeat it again...the Democrats, with much thx to Moore, are in the process of handing us the 2004 version of the Wellstone 'funeral' rally. X100. This is going to backfire, huge.

Honestly don't need to freep it. I was asked to view that vile movie and write a review of it. I'm working on that today... The movie is so poorly done that it will help the Bush re-election bid.

I'll post my review on FR when I am finished with it.

Mike

60's meet 00's. An aging baby boom generation is not going to be pretty. Think lycra pants, boob jobs and ankle tats on 70 year old hotties.

Looks like the poll was hacked by the DU:

I have a better way judge Moore's 9-11 film. Compare 9-11 earning to "The Passion." Mel's Passion in detail week by week.

Moore earned over $ 22 million in his first three days. Record breaking earnings for a documentary. But we need to compare this movie to Gibson's "Passion" to get a handle on what is happening. Mel's film earned $ 64.5 million in its first three days and over $ 125 million in its first five days.

What I am trying to say is each film's earnings may be a type of informal poll on America's social and political dynamics. "Passion" was popular with Christians and Republican and older Democrats and independent voters who support the War in Iraq. Just thinking out loud here, but 9-11 may have to play in a lot more theaters for a lot longer to have any real impact on this Presidential election. I had predicted 9-11 would earn over $ 30 million in its first three days. But it only opened in about 850 theaters nationwide. This week it may be screening in 1,200 theaters. Keep an eye on the earnings of Moore's film. I do not believe 9-11 will have an impact of this Presidential election unless 9-11 earns over $ 100 million in the first week.

Spiderman will soon web the fad! A majority of the weekend amounts was paid by liberal Hollywood activist and screen writers buying multiple tickets and paying prime time prices. A lot of the theaters did not allow entrance before the movie to show a larger crowd outside even while advising the goers to arrive an hour early. It's all about the Hollywood hype. Every Election year Hollywood has one. A lot of movie goers are going to the limited theaters because they hear that big stars will be there. This Liberal Hollywood hype has been going on for years but they are trying to perfect it with this movie.

Come November, the American public will have forgotten. Nice timing Mr. Moore. With your greed for profit, you couldn't wait until October to make a splash.

Moore had to release the film when he did because after the DNC the free political ride would be over. There is no doubt this film would have been declared a political ad. It is also supported by liberal propaganda organizations that have made it clear their support of Kerry.

"The Harris polling company means nothing, as far as truth goes, but the left/liberal media have used it many times to disseminate what they want the masses to read/hear. Polls have propaganda value." --------------------------------------------------------------------- True and we have taken one of their weapons away from them.

HEY!

Fear Factor is a lame show... it's nothing but people eating bugs. But why pick on American Idol? I don't watch it much (too many 70s songs), but talent competitions are a millennia-old tradition, and I'd say given the requisite of singing schlocky 70s pop hits, the American public did a pretty decent job of picking singing stars. (No, they're not choosing American Opera Leads.)
