Yes but it is important never to engage in a dialectic with marxists. Have the facts but don't dwell on them. Simply say Moore is wrong.

The marxists can't be debated, but they have to be refuted as vigorously as they attack. I have a friend, an Oscar-winner himself, who essentially cuts-and pastes information from Moore's website and mass-mails it to people within our circle. This puts me in the position of having to refute two Oscar winners (and unfortunately, here in Los Angeles, that silly statue still brings instant clout and credibility). If I'm going to refute these allegations, I'm going to need more than poise. I'm going to need facts.

The same goes for everyone else. When Farenheit 911 is released, the media is going to fall all over itself to praise it. They'll do everything in their power to lend credibility to Moore's thesis. We have to be ready for that.

Moore needs to be attacked more than Bush defended. Was Moore at the ANSWER rallies? Did the sponsors of those rallies receive any money from Iraq? Why does Moore support the Worker's World party? What is his income? Why doesn't he release his tax forms?

Aside from the first point (I don't believe Bush needs to be defended so much as the truth needs to be told), I agree 100%. Hit back, hit harder. Moore needs to be pounded into submission. Personally, professionally, intellectually. If he wants a fight, we need to give him one that he can't handle.

The beauty of it is, unlike Moore, we don't need to lie, distort and manipulate in order to do it. The truth is on our side. Let's use it to destroy the bastard.

Sounds good to me. Strong defense with offense on all fronts in depth.

Here's a good way to get across your views about Moore's anti-Americanism.

Blockbuster has 5000 stores and decides whether or not to carry certain films.
BB's decision not to carry Moore's films would send a powerful message to Hollywarped.

They need to be advised that we are outraged at Moore's anti-American and GWB-bashing. Moreover, the Academy's awarding pedophile Roman Polanski an Oscar was a travesty. Polanski was charged with rape and five other felonies in 1977 after having intercourse with a girl who was 13 years old at the time. Polanski drugged the pre-teen and had sex with her while she was unconscious. Polanski was convicted in absentia and was a fugitive from justice at the time he received the Academy Award.

Hollywarped's most devious weapon is to proselytize an unsuspecting public - duping them into accepting amoral lifestyles only Hollyweird deems "normal."

Now is a good time to tell Blockbuster how you feel about Moore and pervert Polanski's films being carried by BB. Below is Blockbuster's URL. Comments link on the left.
