(F9/11) Documentary "a lie" - Andrew Bolt (Aussie RW pundit)
<snip>
I HAVE long thought Michael Moore a liar, and should not have been shocked when I saw his "documentary" Fahrenheit 9/11. Even so, I was horrified. This film – breaking box-office records in the United States – is so deceitful it makes the infamous Triumph of the Will documentary by Hitler's propagandist, Leni Riefenstahl, seem balanced.

But what shocked me even more than Moore's hymn of hatred of the US and its president was the reaction to it of the small audience at the preview I saw.

Many clapped when the dis-credits finally rolled. True, this wasn't the bellowing, stamping, weeping ovation that a poisonously anti-American crowd at the Cannes Film Festival gave Moore before a jury of Leftists and nihilists handed him the Palme d'Or.

Still, it was enough to worry anyone who prizes truth and civilisation, and I looked at the people around me, and wondered: are they so cretinous or so easily misled that they do not know that Moore lies?

1. It's a Man Bites Dog Piece
Yes, it puts George Bush in an unfavorable light. Surprise, surprise! However, the film is very truthful, and audiences know it.

4. oh please. give me a break!
THIS MAN is a liar not Michael Moore. Michael Moore is a great patriot. He loves this country more than anyone. He made this movie so that we could make our country better.
