"I fear how it will play to the undecided."

So do I.

I was speaking with a man just today who saw the movie, and he said it moved him to dislike President Bush, and distrust Dick Cheney. When people see the 'documents' being flashed on the screen, supposedly to 'substantiate' the producer's allegations, it does tend to produce in the uneducated or uninformed mind a feeling of uncertainty or suspicion. This, I'm certain, was Mr. Moore's devious intention. And I do mean devious, because nobody knows better than Michael Moore that the political messages in this movie are based largely on deceptions, half-truths and lots of smoke and mirrors.

I threw away $8 yesterday and watched it myself. I was disappointed because for all the hype, I expected Moore to be some wonderfully talented filmmaker.

If people are drooling over this film, liberals are alot worse off than I originally thought!

And I think that is why it was so important to MOOre to get the PG-13 rating. Children are not political by nature, and this is the great controversy of our time. MOOre wants to swing the new voters of 2006 and 2008.

Don't be deceived by the fact that MOOre is further left than the DNC. Like most of the far-left, MOOre, IMHO, has a long term goal. America can't shift to his direction unless they first stop drifting right.

From Slick Willie to Hilliary to MoreOn.org to Michael MOOre, I think we have a bad habit of underestimating our opponents.

OK, OK..."misunderestimating" them.

Sounds like the same way that Oliver Stone's JFK just overwhelmed the audience with wave after wave of BS that eventually they stop trying to resist. That movie clocks in at around 3 hours. If it were like an epic movie of old and came with an intermission, the audience would get too much of a break and begin questioning what they are watching.
