Fahrenheit's Facts

A friend from Florida called me and told me that she knows two Democrats who have seen the movie and it has prompted them to get finally so fed up with the Democrats they plan to vote for Bush this November. Moore may well get hoisted on his own petard.

I'm being repetitious, but here goes:

I pray, hard, every day that God will grant wisdom and guidance to the voters. Anyone reading this is invited to do the same. :-)

FAHRENHEIT facts = oxymoron

The Democrats and the media couldn't find a single voter unjustly denied the right to vote.

In fact, they unloaded the lefty Civil Rights Commission on Florida to conduct a formal investigation across Florida to gather evidence from disenfranchised voters. There were none to be found. Revrum Al couldn't find any, Revrum Jackson couldn't produce any - none. And the media quietly let the story die.

Meanwhile, Kathryn Harris was demonized for doing her job by people who have no concept of "doing their jobs".

A very good friend of ours, who is a life-long Democrat, told us the other day that he's really starting to worry about his party. My husband, a conservative, started to speak and I kicked him under the table. Our friend spoke on about his party and it was sad to listen to him. And I'll quote him here "I refuse to belong to a party that's bordering on communism". My husband again started to try and tell him why he should be become a Republican and again I kicked him. Let our friend think it out for himself.

The Zell Miller Democrats are beginning to wake up to the fact that their house has been infested with fringe elements that make them question whether this group can represent them anymore. Let's hope Moore's propagandizing causes more Democrats to wake up.

[plain talk]

This movie is a good opportunity to divide the democrats between those that believe Moore and those who don't. They can't all be that stupid. Those that stand behind Moore get slaughtered when the facts are presented. This movie will be forgotten in six months.

This movie will be forgotten in six months.

What movie?

[plain talk]

I'm not sure. What were we talking about? Oh, I guess it wasn't important. In other news today ...

[Gabz]

LOL!!!!!!!!!

Yes, NOBODY was illegally prevented from voting in Florida except Military people attempting to vote absentee.

The "checkpoint" stories were made up after the fact, based upon "a few" who were turned away based upon invalid voter registrations.

[Lee'sGhost]

"Anyone know the true stats on this?"

I'd like to know the answer to that as well. It's the first time I've seen this argument.

I like that "hype" part of that cartoon.

Perhaps we could use it in a F-9/11 protest sign...

ed koch, former dem mayor of NY wrote a review in which he really attacked moore for supporting the terrorists.
although i live on long island, the only person i have heard mention the movie was my wife's in-law from CT who is going to see it. at a party we had where virtually eveyone else was a democrat who hates Bush (this is NY, remember), no one else even mentioned the film, even when they were attacking Bush! i don't think many people even know or care who moore is.

[Smartass]

Hi, I'm Michael Moore!

I wonder if this movie will hit the cable networks before the election. Only the convinced will see it in a theater but many will watch it when it's shown on Showtime.

We can only hope that decent Democrats do wake up!
