Now THAT's what I'M talkin' about!
Thanks for this info .. this is good to study to refute those who support Moore.
doc·u·men·ta·ryFrom Dictionary.com:
adj.1. Consisting of, concerning, or based on documents.
2. Presenting facts objectively without editorializing or inserting fictional matter, as in a book or film.
prop·a·gan·daMoore's movie is propaganda, not a documentary.

2. Material disseminated by the advocates or opponents of a doctrine or cause: wartime propaganda.
The author left out one of the Carlyle Group's first major investors was none other than George Soros.
Spread the word.
I didn't know that. Many thanks for that rather important point of information!
Why, this film is just entertainment, doncha know, and should not be held to any standards of objectivity. Besides, some REAL truths are revealed, even as the events portrayed are somewhat at odds with verifible fact. It is in the faces of the audience, as they look on this visual feast, and find so much that agrees with their personal belief system.
The fact that their belief system contains vast and irreconcilable differences with reality, of course, does not reflect in any way on the artistic achievement of Michael Moore, American Hatriot.
The motion picture itself is in reality a poorly shot home video, spliced in with other visual records taken completely out of context. Some corollaries are drawn, but deliberately left without a stated conclusion. The message, if there is one, is that Bush is pictured as behaving in a singularly convoluted and uncharacteristic manner, and it is this image of Bush that is indicted by the arguments made against him. Michael Moore, American Hatriot, has built a straw figure, and demolished it. He has in no way made any criticism of the real live breathing President George W. Bush. Michael Moore, American Hatriot, has never actually SEEN George W. Bush.

Thanks for going through the torment of watching this propaganda film. I'm not into socialism myself, so I probably won't bother. Isn't America great? You can whip up a propaganda movie filled with lies, against a sitting president, and then use that film to bring down the entire opposing political party!!! Remember Wes Clarke? Remember his run for the Dem party's candidate for 2004? Remember what happened immediately after Michael Moore endorsed him saying the president was a deserter? Whoops! Now, the entire Dem leadership is endorsing Moore. Whoops. Is that the grinding sound of the Dems sliding off the cliff I hear?
From your keyboard to God's ears.
Unfortunately, mainstream media 'Rat sycophants will do everything in their power to prevent it. Remember: in their world, up is down, black is white, and evil is good - it's the dialectic, and it's whatever it takes to get GWB defeated on November 2nd.
What format is that? How is it played?
Two hour movie...Yawn it must be so boring.
Now that REALLY Sucks!
BTTT!
You can download it with Bitorrent (which is a small download that is freeware). How to play it, however, I am not entirely sure, because my Internet has been terrible last couple days. It seems to be a series of WINRar files, so you can use that and then see what happens. It may make CD images, which can be used easily enough.
