3. probably a helluva lot fewer than

I bet there aren't all that many repeats.

7. Hi, Karl!
:hi:

How many repeat viewings on ANY movie? I saw "Back to the Future seven times when I was a kid.

Tell your Masters this lie needs some work, Karl.

18. Uh, no actually it was a legitimate question
I happen to think F911 should be required viewing for every American 16 and older.

I do know that a lot of people are watching it 2 or 3 times. I would be interested how many people are watching it for the first time. I don't think this statistic will crush the liberal agenda...

11. and how many freepers are sneaking in?
the box office numbers actually understate the success of the film, because many RW hypocrites aren't paying to see the movie.

4. The TV ads seemed to have disappeared last week
but have returned and are being shown during network newscasts in the a.m./p.m.

Sweet.

Veterans' Workers Thank Michael Moore for Highlighting Funding


WASHINGTON, July 8 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) National VA Council applauds Michael Moore, for focusing attention on the failure of the Bush Administration to provide adequate funding for veterans' care, in his popular documentary, Fahrenheit 9/11. The film depicts disabled veterans who served in Iraq receiving physical therapy for their injuries and discusses the need for more funding for veterans' programs.

"It's a disgrace, that during a time of war, our president has failed to adequately fund programs for veterans," said Alma Lee, president of AFGE's National VA Council, which represents health care professionals in the Department of Veterans Affairs. "Those who care for veterans every day are heartened by the attention Michael Moore brings to the need to allocate more federal money to veterans' programs. end snips~

14. I'm not sure O'Really is a paid propagandist.
I think some smart business people found out that you could get a sizable group of morons to continuously watch or listen to just about any empty-headed fool who spouted right wing nonsense. It's a very profitable business. RWers are the Pavlov's dogs of audiences.

Liberals are too analytical and by definition too resistant to group think for it to work with them. Liberals are just too independent, like cats.

19. Semantics. O'Reichley is paid to lie, dissemble, distort, bully
Whether the actual channels are the same as the old Ham-Fisted Soviet-Nazi, way or the New "Managed Democracy" Totalitarianism of Imperial Amerika and Comrade Putin's Russia, a Paid Propagandist is a Paid Propagandist.

10. Usually movie grosses are expressed in Domestic, so....
...even though it's grossed $90 million worldwide, it would usually be expressed as $83 million (tho domestic gross.)

13. GO F9/11 !
i go check the total for the movie every day, and think about how this can change the minds of all the people who see it.

Domestic Total as of Jul. 13, 2004: $83,471,000 (Estimate)

cant wait for the special edition DVD with extra footage and interviews.

If you really want to be shocked see Alex Jones Infowars - 9-11 The Road to Tyanny. freely downloaded from the internet.
