While I agree there is no connection, I remember reading something about legitimate business contacts between Osama's father and Bush Sr. I've seen liberals making a big deal about this, but from what it seems, Osama's father owned one of the largest construction companies in Saudi...and it was standard business. If this is true, you know Michael Moore will distort the facts.
I think it is important to find out what these interests where so we can combat the accusations that Moore will imply. Does anyone have any information on this connection? Aside from the fact that Osama was dis-owned from his father and excommunicated from Saudi Arabia, I'd like to know what Moore has in his playbook. It's only reasonable to assume that this country would do business with the leading businessmen of Saudi Arabia. And if it turns out that Osama's father was one of these businessmen, that in no way supports a link to Osama and his terrorist network. Unfortunately, that won't stop MM from making a tenuous connection for political points.

I trust the President, and I trust his father. But in order to defend them against the coming onslaught of accusations, I (we) need to know the truth.
Operating under the assumption that there's nothing to hide, we have to find it. Facts will always be our best defense against the left's lies. And we can already assume that Moore's film will be nothing but lies, because he's proven himself to be incapable of telling the truth.
