Well, there may be more, since the "rating" is only 7 point something on a scale of 10. I don't know who's voting but it's not anywhere near "10" by those posters!

[summer]

You're welcome, blam. :)

[summer]

Yes, I thought that was very funny! :)

[summer]

Some great cartoons! Thanks for posting them.

My pleasure. :)

Lard burns at such a high temperature that is is the preferred fat for deep-frying turkeys. Guess that is a useful cooking tip.

Hi, summer,

BUMP for great freeping!

[summer]

says we got what we deserved on 9-11-01.

His public, anti-American comments abroad have also been terrible, just terrible, for a time when our nation is at war. Would he really enjoy living in any number of other countries on this planet, such as Third World or Communist countries? I somehow don't think he would like it. Maybe he needs to reconsider his constantly negative thoughts about this country. And, lose some weight for health reasons!!!

[summer]

Thanks for pinging people, YaYa123! :)

[summer]

ROTFLMAO... :)

Hi Lancey Howard, Thanks for your nice post here! :)

They keep [predicting this movie will go through the roof, to $100 million in ticket sales, but I don't think so. It had a big weekend, and I think now it will die down.

[Salvation]

LOL! Not one favorable!

Now, he lies about our country, our President, and says we got what we deserved on 9-11-01.

If you really want to get aggravated, go to the IMDB message board for this film. The level of hatred for Bush is beyond anything I could ever imagine in my lifetime.

Well, you could check out the gibberish over at Al Jazeera. Something tells me they edge out the whiners at IMDB. It's probably just as good they write that stuff in Arabic, I doubt it's a flattering praise of George W. Bush...

Great Post!

Re your post #52 - There was a surprisingly diverse set of opinions illustrated by editorial cartoonists about this film. I say that because the vast majority of movie reviewers seemed more interested in positively promoting the film, but that really wasn't the case with the editorial cartoonists. As you noticed, none of the cartoons I posted were favorable to Moore's "documentary."

Speaking of everybody's favorite source of unbiased news, Al Jazeera, they are running some sort of poll on their site!

I can't read all that chicken scratch writing, but maybe it says something like...

Our poll question is: Now that George W. Bush and those wretched Americans have handed control of Iraq to the Iraqi Governing Council, should we give up our evil, murderous ways, and be decent members of society?

• Yes
• No

We could overload their poll with the proper response, and the problem of terrorism would go away!

No, wait, that sounds too much like what the UN believes...

Never mind.

...Although I may disagree with Moore, I don't hate him. But, he made himself a public figure, so, take the flak that comes with being controversial...
