His choice of songs are bloody hilarious!!! It is very entertaining, and has a number of truly chilling moments too. Now there has been a spate of anti-Moore films that have come out, but from observations they all seems to attack the man, and NOT what he is actually saying. Now I do not agree with every one of Michaels conclusions, but I would much prefer to hear the critics attack his probing accusations, instead of just trying to discredit him. Heck, I don't really want to believe that all he says in 9/11 is true, but what he says makes a lot more sense than the bullshit we have heard from the administration. So can someone tell me a good reason why the Saudis where whisked off out of the country straight after 9/11? And why is it that Osama has been all but forgotten? Surely that is sending a clear signal that terrorists can get away with murder. And why don't the members of congress send THEIR kids to war? (ok, that one's easy). And the WMD lies, questionable voting interference, publicity stunts, irrational fear campaign, blah, blah, blah... Anyway, good luck America, coz I suspect you are gonna get another 4 years of this. Perhaps after that the pattern will become undeniably clear. --- DFM |

Nobody, but nobody, ever gave a damn whether Saddam had WMDs. It's yet another mark of Bush's incompetence that he cast his argument in terms of the WMD issue. >Anyway, good luck America, coz I suspect you are gonna get another 4 >years of this.

Re: farenheit 9/11
As a Brit I've met many people from the USA over the last couple of years
and every single one without exception has apologised about both being American and voting in Bush as president at the very start of any conversation. It is now looking likely that the same thing will happen all over again. You get the president you deserve, I guess!

I assume this is because you haven't spent time in the USA. The farther you get (in sociogeographical terms; leave Mexico out of this) from Texas the more likely the Americans you meet are the type who (A) aren't afraid of the rest of the world just because it's different, and (B) recognize that this is a big difference between them and George Bush. miguel -- Hit The Road!

I "don't want to believe" a great deal that seems to be going on in the U.S., unopposed, these days! Unfortunately too many people turn a blind eye, and suffer from truncated memory function - if it happened more than a couple of days ago they don't remember, so accept whatever lies they are told, instead. > > Anyway, good luck America, coz I suspect you are gonna get another 4 > years of this. Alas, if the polls are to be believed, you're probably right. > Perhaps after that the pattern will become undeniably > clear. And harder to combat. Too many people think "It can't happen here" - overlooking the fact that 1930's Germany had a constitution, too, and that although Hitler was originally elected to office, it was NOT as dictator with supreme authority! |

IF we actually "elect" him, this time - but with the possiblities for election fraud inherent in the "electronic" voting machines they're rushing to adopt, who will be able to PROVE whether he's actually the choice of the people or not? Last time I was in England, we were in the throes of what I then termed "The Great American Comedy". In retrospect it seems more tragedy than comedy, and things don't seem to be getting any better. |

That's definitely been my experience, here at home - but how then explain the many polls which show the election as either too close to call or giving Dubya a slight edge? I certainly hope all our citizens living abroad have applied for absentee ballots! (Although one ex-pat friend I saw in Paris last week expressed doubt as to whether they would be delivered - apparently the least typo or similar inaccuracy is looked upon as voiding the application in its entirety.) |

It must just reflect the circle you travel in and class of Americans you've met. 2000 Election Vote by Education: Gore Bush No H.S. Degree 59% 38% High School Graduate 48% 49% Some College 45% 51% College Graduate 45% 51% I'll qoute Barry Rubin in "Hating America: A History" (Oxford University Press): "Another anti-American technique is to compare the average or even lowest level of culture or society in the United States with elite habits in Europe." |

Richard Clark. > Moore clearly lied about this. Moore lied? And you think he lied because he did not interview Clark? Moore reported that some Saudis were picked up and flown out of the country while the skies were closed to everyone else. The administration denied that for a long time. It was just recently that they finally came clean and admitted that it had happened. For more than two years the administration denied something that only the administration could have approved, and you call Moore a liar because he didn't interview Clark.

There were lots of reasons not to go. Aside from the fact that the claims about an imminent threat to the US, WMDS etc where without any basis in fact, you had to have known that it was going to create a mess. Having failed to find WMDs, the US has clearly embarrassed itself. It would be nice to cut your losses and get out. The problem now is that you opened up that hornets nest, so it is not practical to get out. You have managed to create the same state of anarchy in Iraq that you helped to cause in Afghanistan when you thought it would be funny to screw the soviets by supporting the Islamic fundies. It's beginning to look like the only way to clean up Iraq is to tolerate another oppressive despot that you might be able to get along with. Perhaps this will be a good lesson for people like Kerry who agreed to support an attack on Iraq in order to force compliance. People who are willing to make a threat have to be willing to carry out on that threat. |
