"Faranheit 9/11" was touted as political satire and entertaining, comic, commentary, not hard, cold, journalistic fact. Just read the box!

I recently got a pamphlet in the mail from my sister-in-law, a Catholic school teacher and a single issue, anti-abortion rights voter, blinded like so many of you by well intentioned patriotism and religious fervor, which attempts to attack Moore's film. It is published by an organization called Grassfire.org, apparently the right wing counterpart to Moveon.org.

Among some of their astoundingly brilliant arguments against Moore's assertions:

Moore is lying because he referred to Fla. Secy. of State Katherine Harris as "...the vote countin' woman..." They point out the fact that Harris never actually counted one single vote! Even though as Secy. of State she is responsible to oversee the election process in total and for the certification of the final tally. OH! I GET IT!! GEE, They're right! :rolleyes:

Next, they claim Moore is lying because he refers to her as the ..."chairman of (Bush's) campaign..." They point out that Harris was NOT the chairman, "she was the Bush Campaign CO-CHAIR for Florida." Well, that certainly makes all the difference in the world, doesn't it! :p

If anyone wants to take a really startling look at the 2000 election, get a copy of "Unprecedented" a DVD about the unethical, if not outright criminal, practices undertaken by Jeb, Kate, and the Florida Republicans before, during, and after, the so-called 2000 election. I have a copy if anyone wants to see it.

Another gem in this pamphlet is where they dispute Moore's assertion that there was only one member of Congress who had a child serving in Iraq. The pamphlet points out that there are in fact SEVEN such members of Congress! Well, again, that certainly proves that Moore's arguments, (admittedly biased, never touted as "fair and balanced" like those at Fakes News) don't hold any water. Seven, out of 535! Well, excuse me all to hell if I'm not impressed!

I could continue to poke huge holes in this lame attempt at damage control, but I wouldn't want to be too long winded.

(Besides, we all know that us liberals have no command of facts, so well illustrated by this piece of garbage of a pamphlet! Excuse me, I gotta take a dump; I think I'll use this pamphlet as toilet paper!)
