A Grand Old Flag was the first song we learned in the Drum & Bugle Corp back in 1967.

Kerry should be asked about the film ...does he believe the Bush family was given 1.4 billion $ by Saudis? does he think Bush knew? Does he think Bush is stupid? On and on and on ..Ask him every question from the movie.Kerry needs to be put on record.

Look, if you want these people to comprehend even half of your post, you'll really have to avoid the use of upper case letters. Refer to post #114.

"Everyone knows Osama is dangerous, but most of the people in Europe and half the people in America don't recognize Moore for what he is -- a cancer. It is the enemy you don't see or recognize who is most dangerous, like a cancer growing inside your gut."

90% of the islamic world see Osama as a hero.

The other thing that worries me is will this movie be shown in all of the dollar theaters across the country? A ton of people might not pay $8 to see it, but they might pay $2 just to see what the fuss is about.

"it won't be breaking any box office records, let's not exaggerate that aspect of it."

In terms of raw dollars, Fahrenheit is actually the biggest opening ever for a movie playing at less than 1,000 theaters, topping Rocky III's $12.4 million at 939 venues.

Hopefully a lot of people go see this movie:

I put a few dollars toward it.

Just a thought, there is a difference between propoganda and this movie.

Propoganda is a product of the government.

Moore's movie is a personal political statement.

At least that's what I thought.

My point still stands. If we declare war, we can arrest more traitors.

You may be technically correct, but the lamestream media are already trumpeting that it IS breaking box office records -- for a "documentary."

Of course, this flick is not a documentary. It is propaganda.

This movie needs to be debunked, line by line, and scene by scene.

You have the wrong target in your sights.

Moore needs to be debunked, year by year, political affiliation by political affiliation. Who are and were his supporters? Where did his funding come from? He has a history and I'll bet it's interesting.

I can't say I approve much of Bush as a President... but the real problem is people like Moore. He is so convinced about his own opinions that there is no room whatsoever for intelligent discourse in any of his productions. He uses emotive language and imagery to pursuade people to feel what he feels... The current state of newsmedia is constantly changing in the USA, but after living in China for awhile I can say that for all its flaws it is still great. The problem with Moore as a source of information is that he in no way even aspires to the grand journalistic tradition of objectivly reporting. When people view his material they are so moved emotionally that they can hardly tell that what they are watching is propaganda. I beleive that propaganda can be identified by its unfailing tendency to paint an issue either black or white... right or wrong. I see propaganda coming from both the democrats and rebuplicans... and both try to paint the picture that what they are saying is right. As I am not prone to any political label myself I feel that I have common ground with both... and more importantly I feel it is important to remember that whatever we label ourselves we are in this together. Thats the problem with Moore, he cuts a line through the middle with emotive illusions and does nothing to help his country

I broke down and rented a copy from a local video store, just to see leni riefenstahl's modern cinematography and propaganda techniques in action.

michael mooreon probably only got 50 cents from me. Much better than the 5 bucks he would have gotten from me if I would have seen his piece of shit in a theater.

Anyway, it was boring as hell, but I can see why DUmmies, who live in a DUmpster, were so entrhalled by it.

Those who live by trash, die in the trash.
