Bump
Ron Smith, an activist with the conservative Web site Freerepublic.com, sat for the whole festival in the front row. "I'll give this to Michael Moore," he says. "He created a chain reaction. We have to thank him for that." He agreed that the anti-Moore, pro-Bush films were slow out of the gates, "but I'll tell you, this is just the beginning. We've got the Internet and talk radio and now we've got films. This is just a dry run. It'll be better next time around."That quote was fairly accurate; the incoherence was MINE, not the WaPo reporter's. :o)
What I **wanted** to communicate was the analysis by Andrew Breitbart (from "Michael Moore Hates America") about how the release of Fahrenheit 9/11 energized so many conservative film-makers.I will post more LATER - after some much-needed sleep. :o)
