Tables turned on Fahrenheit 9/11’s maker

[Brad from Tennessee]

After Democrats lost the 2004 election Cokie Roberts said Moore alienated voters by appearing in public as an unkempt slob.

The attendance numbers were high for Fahrenheit 911 but that was because the same dimwits were going to see it 12 times.

[Lancey Howard]

Big fat BUMP!!

In 2000, Al Gore was NOT elected President because of Tennessee, his home state voting against him.

In 2006, bucking an anti-Republican tide in the election, Tennessee elects a Republican over Harold Ford, Jr despite massive MSM support.

Tennessee can stand proud.

[Noumenon]

“The great misfortune of the Twentieth Century is to have been the one in which the ideal of liberty was harnessed to the service of tyranny, the ideal of equality to the service of privilege, and all the aspirations and social forces included under the label of the "Left" enrolled in the service of impoverishment and enslavement. This immense imposture has falsified most of this century, partly through the faults of some of its greatest intellectuals. It has corrupted the language and action of politics down to tiny details of vocabulary, it has inverted the sense of morality and enthroned falsehood in the very center of human thought.”

“When we started this project we hoped to have done a documentary that celebrated Michael Moore. We were admirers and fans,” said Debbie Melnyk, who made the film with her husband, Rick Caine. “Then we found out certain facts about his documentaries that we hadn’t known before. We ended up very disappointed and disillusioned.”

The more intense the love, the more intense the hatred after betrayal.

[R_Kangel]

Instead of sitting around and whining about the "Left Wing" media.

If more conservative film makers and documentarians actually got off of their collective @sses and made and distributed a barrage of films, TV, shows etc as the left knows how to do so well, I truly believe that the public will start rebelling against the extreme hypocrisy that is being practiced by the left. The truth needs to get out there.

This IS the only way to preach to this entertainment and media driven culture and society. You must enter into the industry and use it to teach the masses that they are being duped. This has to be done outside of talk radio and Fox News in order to get the message to the main stream public. With enough cash and flash in the projects, the public will be attracted to the new way of thinking.

You know, much like the same way people are attracted to shiny objects, a well made and attractive production will be attractive to the masses. The liberals realize this and use it well and to their advantage.

Why don't we?

Perception is reality as they say.

[FormerACLUmember]

Any "documentary" that won an Oscar after 2000, is by definition, a complete fraud and 100% propaganda.

[GVnana]

“In the film, Michael makes it look as though 100% of the doors were unlocked, but his local producer told us it was really only 40%,”

I can show you a neighborhood where 90% of the doors are unlocked. It's mine. In the US.

[avacado]

"Do you have a concise list with more falsehoods in that movie?"

I don't have any list. Those are the ones that I personally noticed. There are lists on the Internet that you can Google.

[GVnana]

All this applies .. to albore's inconvenient truth as well.

With a title of "An Inconvenient Truth" I guess we're supposed to believe someone is hiding massive planetary changes from everyone except Al Gore.

[headstamp]

Thanks will do.

[The Right Stuff]

I have a friend who sets up for big concerts, conventions, etc. He worked on the DNC convention and he says that MM was a complete jerk to the hands. Someone brought them a box of doughnuts and MM ate a bite out of every doughnut and then left them on the tray.

Seems like he has the typical leftie's contempt for the "lower" classes.

[alnick]

“If you have to sell out your values and principles to get at a greater truth, where does that leave you?” said Melnyk.

These lefties get it half right. It's not "a greater truth" or any kind of truth at all that Michael Moore is after.

“If we think it’s wrong for the government to lie and manipulate, how do we think that [left-wingers] doing it is the solution?”

Because the only way to promote leftist ideals is to lie. Honesty leads away from liberalism.

[TX Bluebonnet]

All kinds of good news today about so called left wing documentaries. Good for these people for standing up for the truth.

[secretagent]

Wow, think I'll give Revel a look.

[Noumenon]

His stuff is definitely worth your while.

[DollyCali]

Anyone who saw "Fahrenhype 9/11" knew all this.

AMEN BUMP

[NavVet]

I'm surprised they didn't mention Larry Elder's movie "Michael and Me"

Good point!


Michael Moore began his parasitical career based on the glaring false illusion that he was the common man’s champion.That is what his movie Roger was all about. If examined closer the shaded beginnings of Moore’s existence, and his career ever since, is built upon the backs of activist auto worker rebels many years ago….not Moore’s.
Moore was no blue collar activist rebel, he had no credentials, he led nothing and did nothing but occasionally assist these Flint rebels. Moore wasn’t even from Flint and was no more then a very unsuccessful unknown talking head that took on the identity of these blue-collar rebels who were putting everything on the line every day.
He has gotten away with it and has fooled the world for 25 years…until now.


There are sites with historical documentation of these events…

Examine this particular piece closely especially the … “conclusion.” .

Thanks to films like Manufacturing dissent this Moore story is going to explode in America.

[Mr. Silverback]

This has been done before in Michael Moore Hates America

Given a choice between two documentaries exposing Michael Moore for the odous, hypocritical pile of crap he is, and three documentaries exposing Michael Moore for the odous, hypocritical pile of crap he is, I'll take the latter. Enthusiastically!
