Tom (comment #5), applaud to Joseph Goebbel's films. Well, that is politics and social movement. Be it Hitler or the Republican Party followers. hhhmmm...kinda the same thing. The 'liberal' side of things need that sort of unity and energy to make any change. Or have the strength to adjust the Republican power. It is what we need to get democracy back on track in this country. Some Republicans should be Democrats and vice versa. And some from both parties should be some whole different party. Anyway... peaceloveguidance

regarding CL's (comment #9) about 'preaching to the chior", that may be partially true. But Bush has ended up being a 'divider' during his tenure. So what we have right now is this huge swing vote available to influence. They could make the difference in an election outcome. peaceloveguidance

I agree that if he made actual true documentaries or regular movies he would be very good. After all Canadian Bacon was a tremendously well received movie. JK. :p

Are you telling me not to watch Survivor? Damn, I don't know if I could live without the ever compelling television created by Jeff Probst and company. (Sarcasm) My expectations for Farenheit are that it will be entertaining and touching as he is a VERY good filmmaker, but that I definitely shouldn't trust it word for word because, well, he is a very good filmmaker and this is not objective at all. I wish he would make some more non-documentary types of movies.

I saw it yesterday. If you have been keeping up with events then its old news. However, considering the fact that most americans have been tuned into "reality TV", it might be of use to them.

I haven't seen the movie yet. I can't wait to see it. My only problem with the whole thing, at least my fear of the whole thing because I haven't seen it yet, is that some truth goes out the window in order to make a point. I don't trust Rush Limbaugh who will do anything to further his agenda and I don't trust Michael Moore who will apparently do the same. It still should be an interesting movie. Also, I am not sure why Republicans are so upset over this whole thing. At this point all it is going to do is preach to the choir. I really doubt that many people are going to go to see this movie and have their minds changed. It is going to be more people who already agree with Moore's conclusions.

And by that I mean propaganda with the intent to stir the masses into a certain way of thinking... I see... So leading the American people to believe that Iraq had something to do with 9/11 is not propaganda?

And by that I mean propaganda with the intent to stir the masses into a certain way of thinking, to an audience which basically is on the same page philosophically.

With that in mind, this is a great film deserving a standing ovation. peaceloveguidance Just like people gave standing ovations to the "great films" by Joseph Goebbels.

Here is the deal. The hard core facts are real and well researched. They are mixed with Michael Moore's point of view. When viewing this film keep that in mind. The factual information is very true and right on. Don't let Mr. Moore's spin confuse the reality. With that in mind, this is a great film deserving a standing ovation. peaceloveguidance

I am so sick of hearing about the damn "rape rooms" as IF that was one of the major reasons why the Bush Administration chose to invade Iraq. And funny how the name of who we are supposed to be scare of is always changing. First is was Osama, then it was Saddam, now it's Al Zaquawri. Tell ya what... if you are so worried about "rape rooms", when are you going to contact your senator and demand the invasion of Thailand or Cambodia where CHILD PROSTITUTION is RAMPANT. I mean, don't you care that THOUSANDS OF YOUNG GIRLS AND BOYS ARE RAPED MULTIPLE TIMES DAILY FOR MONEY in Thailand? Cambodia? Children as young as three. Its not like its only a few, or not common... Hell, convicted pedophile, Garry Glitter knew where to go when he got deported from Canada to keep engaging in his passion for "young meat." Or do you think the "millions" of Thai and Cambodeans wouldn't be as happy as the Iraqis?

You don't even know what the hell you are talking about when you call this administration an inhumane administration. All Bush and his "Cronies" have done is free millions of people from bondage, and protect you and your family from people like Al Zaquawri who want you dead simply because you are an American, and who no doubt would nuke an entire American city just for fun. Let me clarify some of your action points: (Those five things: Get behind the national voter-registration effort Including, but not limited to homeless people and people who have been dead for years. Use Mayor Daley's Chicago as an example Raise hell about Halliburton's war profiteering After first finding out what the hell Halliburton does. Don't worry about seeing the irony in complaining about American jobs going overseas while trying to stop Halliburton's American employees from having jobs. Protest the Republican National Convention in NYC on August 29 Afterall, we are all socialists, don't have jobs, and have nothing better to do with our time. Join a peace group and help end the Iraqi occupation The UN is a good example of said peace group. they did so well with the Oil for Food Program. With any luck another oppressive regime can take over so mass murders and rape rooms can open up again. So much better than the democratic Iraq set forth by the evil Republicans. Educate your family and friends. Don't let truth and facts get in your way. Just try to get them to have blind hatred for Bush like we do. Afterall, the best things have come from hate, just look at the Middle East.
