36. I have to say that
Edited on Wed Jul-21-04 04:01 PM by TexanForKerry
the part on Florida was interesting. I felt a little cheated knowing that that Gore rally they showed was not in response to Florida being called for Gore.

Pretty much all the rest, though, is just stupid. He misrepresents Moore's positions and attacks those misrepresentations. When he's talking about Bush's "I call you my base" speech, he defends it as a joke. Well, of course it's a joke, but it's a telling joke. But the way he presents it, if you haven't seen the movie you will think that Moore misrepresents Bush in that part. The real audience for this article are people who haven't seen the movie, and won't be able to recognize when he mischaracteizes it.

Edit: Holy shit! I just read a little more. It's talking about the passed out prisoner scene. He says that it's no big deal because it's just a passed out old man. That's even worse! So our soldiers are abusing civilians on the streets?
