Even some news organizations providing clips to Moore for the film argue Fahrenheit 9/11 is not balanced.

I guess since Fox came around, "balanced" is now a buzzword. But it isn't the issue here. The problem is not that the claims in the film aren't balanced, it's that they're not true.

All they do is lie, lie and lie. They really have no future. It's all fantasy.

Anyone know or have a web site devoted to a scene by scene debunking of False & lies 9/11.

And, by the way, anyone who's ever paid to see a movie that included OJ Simpson in it is guilty of conspiracy to commit murder. Right, Mr. Moore?

Not to defend Moore, but this seems a bit weak. The position of the President has always seemed pretty clear to me - he doesn't seen to draw fine distinctions between types of terrorists. I haven't seen the movie, so I don't know whether or not Moore claims the President is talking about AQ - or whether that is just inferred by some viewers due to the broad subject matter of the movie. But I don't think the President would create fine gradations among AQ, Hamas, Hezbollah, AAI, etc. So how is this misleading?

I think the whole country is going nutz when some of the Dems and Libs are seen praising a scum like MM.

Shows how far from reality we have traveled.

The TV ads for Michael Moore's "documentary" Fahrenheit 9/11 feature a mocking clip of President Bush on a golf course. Bush declares, "I call upon all nations to do everything they can to stop these terrorists killers," and then Moore jumps to Bush adding, as he prepares to swing at a golf ball, "now watch this drive." Tuesday night on FNC's Special Report with Brit Hume, Brian Wilson noted how "the viewer is left with the misleading impression Mr. Bush is talking about al-Qaeda terrorists." But Wilson disclosed that "a check of the raw tape reveals the President is talking about an attack against Israel, carried out by a Palestinian suicide bomber."

That one was so obviously cut with a zoom transition between the golf swing and his statement. It was literally 2 different pieces of footage slapped together with a cutesy effect in between.

Moore's lies and distortions are no worse than the run-of-the-mill ones favored by the common barking moonbat.

the only real difference is that Moore has managed to turn himself into a media prince and add the weight of celebrity to his vacant ditherings.

Uh-huh! This type of exposé of "Fahrenheit 9/11" has to continue coming out in the weeks ahead so Michael Moore is taken to task for what he really is: a phony "documentary" maker.

Like everything else about the Dems, they don't know when they're losing.

This film is backfiring and the Dems don't even know it. The Dems are pathetic.

Moore: "Good, good. I'm trying to get members of Congress to get their kids to enlist in the Army and go over to Iraq."

If I were a member of Congress and Moore approached me with this challenge, I would've responded by saying "How about if I introduce a special bill in Congress that would authorize the President to draft your fat ass into the Army and then ship it overseas to Iraq?"

Brit Hume said it best. Roughly "This movie will reinforce the Bush haters and futher convince the rest that the left has gone insane."
