That was worth repeating. I noticed Lee05 hasn't posted any other comments. Hope he got the message.
Good time for a Bump ---
Take a look at the trailer !!!

According to an article linked on his website, it will be out in August in theaters. Nine distributers have expressed interest in helping get it in theaters.
Contact your theater chains and ask that they show it!
They took down the rating.
They did the same to Yahoo Movies.
I even got a letter warning me that they might revoke my Yahoo ID for "slanderous" statements against Moore.
I am one pissed of man at the fact that these movie sites are unwilling to let anything negative be said about Moore.
You dumber than a box of rocks.
Freedom of speech is the freedom to say anything you wish IN PUBLIC so long as it is not slanderous or against the law in some other way.
Nobody has the right to say anything they wish in a private venue.
Why are people who disturb the peace of a play or movie thrown out? Because they do not have the free speech rights to say anything they please in a private venue. Unless you have something that a private company wants to show, you won't be seen on tv or in the movies.
I am not given airtime on the evening news to say whatever I please. If the news director liked what I had to say and decided to give me a commentary, they would give me such. But, there is no inherent right for me to be heard except in the ways available to all Americans in public.
And Michael Moore only will be heard if the theater owners want him to be heard. Many won't show it just because it is a documentary; there are too many movies to start showing every documentary that is produced.
The public certainly has a right to use their free speech in public (calling theaters, writing them etc.) to ask the to refrain from allowing Moore's film to be shown. That is not an attack on Moore's free speech because nobody has the right to be shown in a theater just because you make a film.
You are right, we do have freedom of speech, and that allows any American patriot "sheep" to point out loud and clear when and how Michael Moore lies, and put the proof out there to back up our free speech. It also allows us patriots to wax analytical on the reason and thinking process that allows Moore to LIE, and if anyone decides to no longer associate with Moore because of our free speech, well, it's a free country. Too bad.
I would equate Moore with the wackos who believe that there were no gas chambers in Hitler's Germany
Lee05 is dead, Jim.
But his posts is kind of funny in light of the following remarks today from Michael Moore.
""Any attempts to libel me will be met by force,"
Michael Moore says, anticipating attacks on his film."

Hmmm....his profile says he hasn't been kicked. But, he hasn't posted anything since.
An online hit and run, if you will.
He hasn't written any books, has he? :)
What? You're not familiar with his "works"?
Great literary pieces such as "Stupid White Men" and "Dude, Where's my Country"?
Oh, that's right, he did write a couple. I just was thinking he only did movies for some reason. Brain fart.
