I hate to say this but the activists are actually doing a stupid thing by giving too much attention to Michael Moore's movie. This is only going to make more people want to go to see it out of curiosity because of the controversy. I was hoping noone would see it because there was no hype for it and it would slowly fade away. This is not a good thing - its giving him more media attention than that fat pig deserves! But this is just my opinion!

I think it's fine that people see it. I understand that it's soooooo far left, whose going to take it seriously? Only those who already hate President Bush. Logical thinking people will see right through it.
