a thing about it until today when my dumbass coworker order it. He's a Bush supporter but he plays the fence because he knows I think all Bush supporters are inferior of intelligence (I haven't been wrong yet.) Has this movie been debunked? Is it propaganda? What's the deal?

2. I've actually seen it
My sister intended to buy Fahrenheit 9/11 and accidentally bought FahrenHYPE 9/11. So we all sat around and watched it, for shits and giggles.

It's actually quite a morale boost. It's the most defensive, obviously evasive piece of propaganda I've seen in a long time. It was on the level of "Oh yeah??? Well Michael Moore's fat!!! And so is his momma!!!"

5. LOL..no way! Will none thinkers see through it? This guy who bought it
honestly doesn't read, he listens to talk radio for his news and he watches Fox. He is a nightmare of a voter. He said a democrat made the movie and that the kid who lost his legs in FH911 complains in the movie that Michael Moore tricked him. I'm like, "Michael Moore tricked you dude? How about George Bush tricking your stupid ass to go to Iraq to get your legs blown off! WTF?" I just wanted to know if any of this crap is credible. My friend is just so stupid I don't even engage him in conversation, he obviously wants my approval or attention about Bush, but I just look at him with disappointment, it's like reasoning with a mentally challenged person.

7. Well, the "democrat" that made the movie...
...is a "democrat" for the same reason that Zell Miller is -- which is, being a "democrat" gives them more visibility and influence in the GOP.

As far as the guy who lost his legs, what he's saying is that MM "tricked" him because he is in a movie whose message he doesn't believe in. He doesn't claim that what he said was misconstrued or taken out of context, or that any facts were misrepresented. He's just basically saying that he's apalled that his face is a part of a movie that will be remembered as an anti-Bush movie, being that he's a Bush supporter.

For those who must, here is the url for this crap:
