FAHRENHEIT 9/11
Saw this night before last. Laughed my head off & almost cried. Thought it was very one sided ... but i guess that is what it was designed as. I hope every American sees this movie to counter act the marketing and gloss. Although Moore is obviously one sided i think it is important that everyone see just how the other side of the story goes. Bush does very well at making himself the laughing stock of the rest of the world. I think it is only now, after the recent reports that have come out, that even top officials in the US government now also acknowledge that the US is held in a far worse light, and is in even a more dangerous position, than it ever has been before. I hope the people of the US take note and realise that changes are required. I am not an American ... so unfortunately cant vote ... but i urge everyone to vote who is.
I loved it the movie ... Well done Mike.

Chris, if you're proud to be Canadian after watching F911 then you should rent Bowling for Columbine. He's definitelly pro-Canadian in that movie :)Anonymous

And if you want the truth, Chris, you can check out:

Which is another accounting of all of Moore's lies and deceits (which are in prime form in his Bowling for Columbine movie)Anonymous

Keith, how long exactly have you lived in Europe and Canada? On one handside you're saying that they have no clue about US politics, on the other hand you're obviously more than enough qualified to make statements about what they know.
As for using Moore as a fact source - you can't, but everything in his movies is pretty easy to verify. For example, the fact that he ran every single company he ran into the ground was also said on the History channel, in a show about Texas. Now go ahead, call everybody who agrees w/ Moore a liar. All my republican friends do...Anonymous

Contrary to the posts above linking to very partisan (biased sites), everything in this movie is backed up and factual if not at least supported by solid evidence.
My only complaint about it was that it didn't offer much new, besides some funny/scary/shocking video footage that I'd never seen before. Most of the facts were already out there, although no one has put them together in a cohesive fashion like M. Moore does with this film.
I do recommend this movie to everyone. It definitely shows a one sided picture - but it's still an important picture to understand everything that's out there.
As a moderate I will vote for Kerry, not because of this film, but largely because of the same anger that made it.Anonymous

T Rodgers: please take a minute to google this topic before you again take the word of Michael Moore on 'facts'
Adam: I appreciate you well thought out and careful analysis of the intracacies of american foreign policy. There is however a point you got wrong. Since 9/11 terrorist acts are down some 42% according to the US Department of State.

"Clinton was probably one of the worst, it's just that we never saw it because the media loves him and always gives him preferential treatment and cuts out anything bad he might do."
This is definitely the most unbiased, factual statement on this page. ;) I came close to laughing out loud.
I'll assume Chad was in a coma through all of "Monica-gate". I wouldn't be surprised if some analysis showed that to be the most reported news story of the century (even more than Elian Gonzalez!)Anonymous
