is this a repuke mass-produced LTTE re F9/11?
This dumb@@@ letter is in our local newspaper today and it sounds suspiciously like a mass-produced letter, which I know the repukes are famous for. The behavior of a "liberal" viewing audience at F9/11 does not jibe with any reality I'm aware of. I searched some of the phrases in google but came back empty. Any idea how this can be checked?

I have little use for President Bush or Sen. Kerry, and I was not going to vote in November. Then I went to see "Fahrenheit 9/11." The film was what I thought it would be, lies and half-truths - pure propaganda. It was the behavior of the viewers that I found most interesting. Most were liberals. They insulted and questioned the right of anyone not like them to see the movie.

One guy got in some girl's face, screaming at her. He backed off only when he saw me walking up to him. I guess it is safer to yell at a school girl than a combat-tested paratrooper. Another told me to get out, but he turned down my invitation to put me out. I will not fall into all I saw.

I am no longer undecided. I have decided that liberals are just bullies and cowards. As for November, I will vote for Bush.

2. You may find something if you dig through this site:

They give points to team leaders for doing different things. LTTE's are one such thing. They may have a section on talking points for letters.

3. probably not mass-produced
This is just me, but it doesn't sound like a lot of the mass-produced BS that comes from the GOP. It could, however, be one from some shill group like Move America Forward.

The thing is, though, that the GOP ones tend to speak very highly of Bush, which this letter does in passing (after the author's saying he has "little use" for him); the Move America Forward ones would focus on how bad Michael Moore and the movie are, but that only gets about one sentence.

Since the focus is on the horror and filthyness of the common liberal, it sounds more like the ranting of one nutjob than a concerted effort by a large group. Liberals trying to prevent people from seeing the movie? Not even the GOP is stupid or crazy enough to allege such idiocy.
