Micheal Moore issued a subpoena by Bush Administration?

I know that Moore kept saying that it wasn't illegal to go to cuba as long as it was for journalism purposes.
But I don't know how accurate that is.

Well whatever the case, if he did something illegal, he should be held accountable for it

As another person pointed out, George Bush has done at least a few illegal things during his time as president (the most obvious of which is breaking the FISA act) and he has yet to be held to account.

And let's not forget that the law is not always just.

The fairness of this particular law can be debated either way (national security versus freedom of travel), but what if the government were to make it illegal to leave the country at all?

Just because someone has done something illegal doesn't mean they have done something wrong.

thanks for the information. I do not know what the charges are, but if charges are going to be filed, I just hope it will be done fairly.
His next movie may very well be on the justice system.

RG: WOW! Now THAT I'd like to see!
I don't know whether or not journalists are allowed to travel
to Cuba legally or not, but I don't think so. Seems to me you
have to be in a group and going for humanitarian reasons, or some
such, IIRC. It has to be approved by our govt.

Rahul Buttar: Very wise statements.
