Yes, Moore's movie is very biased, but no matter your political views, it isn’t that hard to see that Bush is an idiot without seeing Fahr 9/11. I'm not talking about being an idiot concerning political views, I'm talking about him being actually mentally retarded.

He drove businesses into the ground when he worked for them, makes up words in his speeches, honestly, I just don't know.

I haven’t seen the movie yet, but someone told me this quote is in it, and I remember watching Bush say this online after he gave this speech and it was ****ing hilarious. If I remember correctly it goes something like this:

Bush:

There's an old saying we have in (Texas)?.

Fool me once... me once... shame on you.

The fooled man can't get fooled again.

LMFAO

See, I'm so confused by this all... I don't watch much TV (really... I never do unless a friend has their TV on or something) so I don't know what to do about all of this election stuff. Everyone is telling me to vote for Bush because "he is the lesser of two evils." -shrug-

Julius: It was talked about in this thread: bumbling and stumbling president bush. Here, however, is a Comedy Central bit that refers to it (and includes the video): http://vancouver.indymedia.org/news/2003/09/69455.php

It's too bad that you can't see the movie and judge for yourself whether it's propoganda.

Everything is propaganda. That includes Presidential news conferences, televised news broadcasts, formal democratic and republican party press releases, 9/11 Commission discussion, etc. The necessary action is picking and choosing logical threads to build a web that makes some sense to you.

All of the info. in the movie is available but most people don't know where to look. If you actually saw the movie you would see how the media lies to us and only reports some of the facts.

But some people like to be lied to because it makes them feel good.

Actually Carter and Clinton are probably our biggest national embarassments (as far as presidents go those two are; Michael Moore is the biggest in my opinion), but then again, that would reflect badly on democrats and liberals so you wouldn't know that.

To be a little more on subject, I think Michael Moore is our biggest national embarrasment because he personifies everything that other nations see wrong with us. He's pompous, he's rude, he's obnoxious, he's a bully, he's FAT, he's a hypocrite, and most of all... he's ****ing worthless.

Therefore I won't go to his movie, because I do NOT want to support anything dealing with him. G'day!

Personally I think alot of Bush supporters won't see the movie because they are afraid what they might find out about Bush.. You know they make judgements about the film without even seeing it and attack Moores' character instead of the information portrayed in the movie. This is the way it is done by the right... they don't address the points made, just the characters of the people who made those points. They are afraid to get deep into dialogue. I would rather see a dialogue about the contents of the film, rather than Moores' perceived personality characteristics. I'll atleast see it once.

I don't know what to think of all of this. Someone said that I should run for President so someone can "see something intelligent come out of Texas". From what I understand, Bush is giving Texas a bad rap? I don't know, like I said... I don't keep up with the media. My TV is normally off.
