Let's all try to take someone to see the movie.
We all have fun reading and posting here but are we really accomplishing anything by preaching to the choir? One of the easiest things we can to to change the outcome of Nov. 2 is to take an independent, new voter, apolitical type, or even a thinking Republican (there are still a few) to see F-9/11. I can't believe any reasonable person could vote for the current criminals in charge after seeing this film. So let's do it!

2. Did It. Worth It.
Took a Republican. She's what I'd call a "McCain Republican." F9/11 really opened her eyes. She walked away vowing not to vote for Bush. She'll either vote for Kerry (if I can convince her), or she'll stay home this time around.

6. Yup. And The More People Who Do It
The better... Remember the shampoo commercial? If we each take two of our friends, and they take two of their friends, who take two of their friends...

3. I took 2.
My fence sitter sister and her republican boyfriend.

They "aren't sure" what they think of the movie. In all fairness to them, they don't pay much attention to politics (they had to ask me who Asscrack was). So I am giving it some time to let the information sink in then I will discuss it with them. They live together and they have another roomie who works for Governor Blago. so I am sure he will try to influence them a little bit.

They are still a work in progress.

4. I may try to take my dad...
Not that he's a wingnut or anything. We have always been against the Iraq invasion. But he'll learn some more - and let's not forget the movie is pretty funny in spots.
