I went down to Occupy Denver late Thursday afternoon to hear Michael Moore address the occupiers. When I arrived I walked smack dab into two occupiers fighting over pot. That was entertaining for a moment. At any there is audio of his time there on the Hear Us Now website if you're interested. Kelly Maher of Who Said, You Said shuld have video up some time Friday afternoon.

Moore to Schwarzenegger: Adopt Austrian health care system Wednesday, June 27, 2007 By: DAVID GERMAIN - Associated Press LOS ANGELES -- Michael Moore has a suggestion to help California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger bring universal health care to the nation's largest state: Just do it the Austrian way. "I would like Gov. Schwarzenegger to say that he wants the citizens of California to have the same, fine, universal health coverage he got as a young man in the country of Austria," Moore said Tuesday of the Austrian-born governor. "That's all we're asking for, governor. Just give us the Austrian plan," Moore...

The GOP doesn't reflect America

NEW YORK The small Illinois newspaper attempting to get an apology from filmmaker Michael Moore for allegedly misusing the paper in "Fahrenheil 9/11" said today it has gotten a rejection notice instead. The Pantagraph of Bloomington, Ill., disclosed today that New York-based lawyer Devereux Chatillon of the law firm Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal sent a letter to the Bloomington attorney representing the newspaper, stating Moore was within his legal right to use one of the newspaper's headlines in the movie and that no "copyright infringement" occurred. He cited several precedents. This led The Pantagraph to conclude: "Moore apparently is not...

I'm sure this topic has been expored to death but I feel compelled to weigh in as well. The idea of George Bush being hung with this "big lie" label just wrankles me. Do people not bother to look deeper than to listen to some bleery eyed buffoon opine about the integrity of George Bush? George Bush was the last of a long line of World leaders and figures to come the conclusion that Iraq has WMD's. The Russians believed it, the British believed it, Bill Clinton believed it, the leaders of both political partis said so, George Bush was...

BLOOMINGTON, Ill. — Filmmaker Michael Moore's Bush-bashing documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11" has apparently upset more than Republicans. The Pantagraph newspaper in Bloomington said Friday it sent a letter to Moore and the film's distributor, Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., asking for an apology for using what it said was a doctored front page in his movie. The paper is seeking $1 in damages. A scene early in the movie shows newspaper headlines related to the contested 2000 presidential election. It includes a shot of The Pantagraph's Dec. 19, 2001, front page, with the prominent headline, "Latest Florida recount shows Gore won election."...

There are many articles which have pointed out the distortions, falsehoods, and lies in the film Fahrenheit 9/11. This report compiles the Fahrenheit 9/11 deceits which have been identified by a wide variety of reviewers. In addition, I identify some inaccuracies which have not been addressed by other writers. The report follows the approximate order in which the movie covers particular topics: the Bush family, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, and Iraq. This report focuses solely on factual issues, and not on aesthetic criticism of the film. To understand the deceptions, it helps to understand Moore’s ideological position. So let us start...

In an exclusive interview, Prince Turki al-Faisal (Saudi Arabian ambassador to the UK) tells Con Coughlin why the US film-maker is so wrong The Saudi royal family has launched a bitter attack on the American film-maker Michael Moore over his claims that the Bush administration secretly smuggled a number of high-ranking Saudi nationals out of the US in the immediate aftermath of the September 11 attacks. Prince Turki said these claims have now been completely refuted in the report compiled by the US commission of inquiry into the 9/11 attacks, which was published at the end of last month. In...

The Pantagraph July 30, 2004 Pantagraph to Moore: Headline use 'misleading' By Bill Flick BLOOMINGTON -- The Pantagraph has a message for Michael Moore, creator of the movie hit, "Fahrenheit 9/11": If he wants to "edit" The Pantagraph, he should apply for a copy-editing job and not simply show made-over and "falsely represented" pages from the newspaper in his movie -- or he should at least ask for permission first. In a letter drafted Thursday and sent to Moore and the movie's Santa Monica, Calif.-based distributor, Lions Gate Entertainment, the newspaper admonished him for his "unauthorized ... misleading" use of...

Editor, Times-Dispatch: [Snip] Michael Moore's selective use of half-truths and outright lies is a crockumentary. ("A half-truth is a whole lie," according to a Yiddish proverb.) In Fraudandhype 9/11, the truth was edited out. What is true is that Michael Moore blamed America for being attacked, lamented the fact that more Republicans weren't killed in the attack, has called Americans "stupid," stated that the more American troops killed, the better, and has likened the Iraqi terrorists to the Minutemen. [Snip]

Michael Moore Backpedals on Key Premise of Documentary By Marc Morano CNSNews.com Senior Staff Writer July 28, 2004 Boston (CNSNews.com) - Left-wing filmmaker Michael Moore on Tuesday appeared to back off his earlier allegation regarding President Bush's involvement in the flights of Saudi Arabian citizens out of the U.S. in the days following the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. CNSNews.com asked Moore on Tuesday if he still believed that President Bush was directly involved in approving the flights of Saudi Arabian citizens out of the U.S., given Richard Clarke's admission that he alone authorized the flights. Clarke is a former...

How many Freepers are there? Im betting quite a few in every city and state. How easy would it be to print up the "Fifty Six Deceits of Fahrenheit 911" pdf and distribute them however possible all on the *same day* nationally? It prints up easily two pages on each side double sided. This is so easy to do, even if you leave just a few laying around at the local Starbucks with the newspaper or print a stack of 'em and hand 'em out. When does the DVD come out? Maybe that would be a good day? What does...

I HAVE long thought Michael Moore a liar, and should not have been shocked when I saw his "documentary" Fahrenheit 9/11. Even so, I was horrified. This film – breaking box-office records in the United States – is so deceitful it makes the infamous Triumph of the Will documentary by Hitler's propagandist, Leni Riefenstahl, seem balanced. But what shocked me even more than Moore's hymn of hatred of the US and its president was the reaction to it of the small audience at the preview I saw. Many clapped when the dis-credits finally rolled. True, this wasn't the bellowing, stamping,...

The Nine Lies of Fahrenheit 9/11Fahrenheit Lie #1 National Security Advisor Condoleeza Rice is depicted in the movie telling a reporter, “Oh, indeed there is a tie between Iraq and what happened on 9/11.” The scene deceptively shows the Administration directly blaming Saddam and his regime for the attacks on 9/11 by taking her comments out of context. Now read the entire statement made by Ms. Rice to the reporter: “Oh, indeed there is a tie between Iraq and what happened on 9/11. It’s not that Saddam Hussein was somehow himself and his regime involved in 9/11. But if you...

The Lies of Fahrenheit 911 I have attained and watched a copy of Fahrenheit 911. After viewing this movie--I will not call it a documentary, because documentaries are based on fact, not lies and misrepresentations, I feel I should respond. I am a young college student without the access of the resources of Mr. Moore, so this might not be as eloquent as it could be, but I still feel a response is in order. You'll have to bear with me on this, English was not my best subject in school. The movie starts out attacking President Bush right away....

I havent had a chance to read everything here. There is a ton of stuff! But I wanted to get it out to everyone to look it over. He is a Nader voter so dont freak out when he jumps on Bushs case a little. "This is a preliminary version of an article that will be published on National Review Online. This report was first posted on the web on the morning of July 1. Since then, I've revised several sections in response to reader requests for clarifications, and have added additional deceits which have been pointed out by readers...
