Not only that, it's useless. He'll get nominated for F911, too. It really doesn't matter to them.

While I applaud your efforts, there is no way the Academy will revoke Moore's Oscar. We all know the Rats and malignant narcissists in Hollyweird are world class rule breakers.

Suffice to say, the Oscars will be interesting. I say we have a campaign and flood Hollywood with the "deceits" in the movie IF it does get nominated.

True, but it doesn't hurt to call and give them a hard time; they might think twice about even thinking about givin F911 a nod if they know that people actually know the rules.

All we have to remember is that Duranty still has his Pulitzer, despite the documentation proving his articles were lies.

Got an address to mail to? If we can hard mail them letters and packages, that would tend to get their attention. We have lots of time before next year to get this accomplished.

Every time Moore opens his mouth, he turns 15,000 independents into Conservatives while gaining the Liberals exactly zero.

I say we help promote him!

He'll also probably win for F911 as well. A good bit of propaganda trumps filmaking integrity every time for the Academy.

He may win for F911. The voting will take place in early 2005. The Hollywood Left will simmer so much, they'll be looking for some way to lash out at Bush from their own impotence. I would expect a concerted effort to vote for something else instead.

Sure, nothing may come of it, but, at the very least, they need to know that America knows that Moore's award was ill-gotten!

Sorry my FRiend, they already knew all about the lies in his movie.

They did the same thing in Cannes.

It seems politics trumps integrity in Hollywierd.

Should we be suprised?

I think a more productive approach might to be to ask the public to think about why Hezbollah and the Chinese Communists are so excited about this screed.

Of course the answer is, for those who care to look, because it does HARM to America.

There will be no opposition to refute the charges made by Moore in these countries.

Seriesly.

Actually we should be pushing for the FEC to prohibit Moore from Advertising the DVD release in any way shape or form as a violation of CFR.

We should also pressure the FEC to recognize any retailer display or distribution as the equal of a financial donation to a 527 type political organization in violation of CFR.

This is an infomercial like ALL of moores Big lies.

It should have been rated NC-17 as a Nazi propaganda film.

Honestly, all the facts in the world won't matter to the American people; facts confuse them.

If you want to discredit Michael Moore, stick to disseminating these two quotes of his:

"The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not "insurgents" or "terrorists" or "The Enemy." They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow -- and they will win.

"Americans are the dumbest people on the planet."
