I did not see it but I really plan on seeing it. Mostly because I think Michael Moore has never made anything bad. Also I heard he reamed Bush a new A-hole and anything that pisses off Bush works for me.

Welcome back AnarchistPatriot...

I don't know if it is going to be in the theatres over here (in Singapore), but do let us know what you think of the documentary when you get the chance to see it.

DV,

Documentary? Hmmmm, before the press whipped it into a froth, even MM said it was "just my opinion", which is to say, a propaganda film created by a man with a clear cut agenda. Lately, it has become a documentary.
Interesting.

Hi Voyager...

Blame the media for projecting the film as a "documentary".

First off, I would like to agree: the press does have a bad habit of 'making mountains out of molehills' in America.

Sometimes I feel that nearly all forms of communication are 'opinions', or 'propaganda'... I think we all have a clear cut agenda when we communicate - That is to get our point across.

I might agree with you on the base of your comment, but I was actually pleased to see that Michael Moore actually fact-checked this material... And in a world where there is really no 'black and white', a world where both sides reek of both justice as well as injustice; the best we can do sometimes is at least make sure we know what the heck we're talking about

Did I see "Michael Moore" and "fact check" used in the same sentence? LOL Even Osama's brother called Moore a liar on a NBC television interview he did with Matt Lauer. When even Bin Laden's brother calls you a liar........
