Why are we Americans Afraid of the Truth/Reality?
F9/11 is a documentary, nothing but fottage and tapes.

Reality, Truth. So why are we afraid to the point of wanting to stifle/denigrate the film?

Is it the Crow meat/meal?

1. Yes.
I believe it's the Crow meat/meal. No other explanation does it justice.

8. Let's talk about the Freep Fear over a "Movie"!
Edited on Mon Jun-28-04 12:48 AM by Hubert Flottz
Why should the GOPers be afraid? It was they who created the monster in the film! The Monster at 1600 Pa. Ave. feeds on fear! It's his best weapon besides stupidity! Why are the Reich Wankers so afraid of the truth being told? How can someone lead, if they don't lead by example?

9. You will be moved by the flick. VERY Powerful indeed.
Shows how the Bushies are connected to Saudis and the Bin Laden Familiy and how its all about money. The American Gov't pays W $400 K per year. The Saudis paid the Bushies $1.8 billion over the years.

So much to describe and so truthful too.

Go, Hubert, you is da MAN. You will take Howdy I hope so he can gnaw on a freeper or two.

10. I'm trying to round up some Jehovah's Witlesses to take!
But I refuse to haul their snakes to da show! The Nazis proved how powerful a movie can be in the 1930s! Now it's coming back to bite the NeoNazis on the ass! Moore should have compared the Neocons to Rats in his flick! I guess Moore figured the four legged Rats might feel bad about that though! How can a bunch of geeks who piss in their pants over Moore's movie, hope to EVER rule the world?

I prolly would never have gone to see Moore's flick if the Neocons hadn't raised so much hell about it! BTW, I am taking a GOPer to the show! I hope I can get tickets!

11. They are planning to expand the number of theathers to 2000
over the next few days. Its too much MONEY to lose by not doing it. The tables have turned, Capitalism defeats Nazism.

Come, we find tickets for you, Enjoy

12. It's not being shown here in the 4th world until Bush leaves!
July 9th is when it starts here on our 4th world coal fired projector! Dumbya will be here for the 4th to make the place a little more stinky! I could have driven 75 miles and seen the flick, but I'll just wait!(Boycotting the oil company Thieves) Waiting will make the 9/11 orgasm last a long time in America! We want to give the Nazi Neandercons a good slow porking anyway! Let it all just trickle until November and then become the great flood! I'm getting my jollies just hearing about the attention and the crowds the "Movie" is drawing! I'll bet the November election will really draw a HUGE unexpected crowd too! Everyone I talk to is voting against the regime!

Until then, they may kill us, but they can't eat us!

16. Consumerism is Why
For years, America's primary source of information has been televised corporate media outlets, and the whole purpose of those media outlets has been to make us buy things. That's all. Just watch the morning TV shows...all fluffy movie reviews and tips on summer makeup. Nothing that's actually real or thought-provoking, just the same old platitudes in shiny plastic packages.

They pass off their big glossy commercials as news by throwing in a few local crime stories, or paying about fifteen seconds worth of attention to scandals caused by the corruption of leaders like * before brushing it off, flashing their big bleached grins at us and switching to a twenty-minute health-report that peddles the latest side-effect-heavy-cure-all from the pharmaceutical demons.

So then along comes Michael Moore with something real and biting, something that makes us cringe in disgust and discomfort (but makes us laugh too), and oh my God, we've been so brainwashed by these people that we just can't deal with the strain, so what do we do? We deny it, of course. It's only natural.
