Off Topic » in reply to Another take on F 9/11

My take on a patently dishonest "other take".........

Gee dude, you start out by saying you are neither liberal nor conservative to mislead the reader into thinking your take is unbiased and would be an honest appraisal of one man's impression.

Then you proceed to compare the film to crop circles.

Then you quote reviews by people you fail to identify.

Ya know what, not only do you reveal you probably don't know much about films, I question that you know anything about crop circles?

In F 9/11, Moore presents the side of the argument he wants to present, but he didn't lie--or have to lie to present the position he feels must be made. When he used material from the book, "The House of Bush, The House of Saud" by Richard Clarke he is only quoting a Republican that was trying to tell the truth. The Bush administration said he was trying to time his book to influence the coming election. Actually his book was in galley months before the 911 hearings. The administration was upset because they seem to feel that being honest, apologizing,and admiting that mistakes were made would be a sign of weakness.

I can understand the right wing being upset by this film. Hell, Republicans hate the idea of a light being turned on in a dark room.

A film like this might mobilize and energize people to vote that were turned off of elections---like the tens of thousands in Florida that have been systematicly disenfranchised by this Bush, Harris, and company.

Was this a great film--naw, but about 1/2 of it was pretty well done and very interesting.
