Liberal brainwashing has made it's way across the pond!? I'm assuming you folks actually believe this film to be a factual representation of historical events... a real documentary??? If so, that is just simply sad.
I find it so amazing that so many Europeans actually believe some of the tripe that dribbles from the mouths of our entertainers... like Bush stealing the election,
or that Bush and Blair doctored intelligence to go to war etc... especially in the absence of REAL tangible evidence to support any of it.
In fact, literally thousands upon thousands of pages of documents generated by independent inquiries and committees have found exactly the opposite, yet the liberal mindset pervades. Very sad indeed.
Since we "Americans" are so evil and hell-bent on war, I'd love for someone to lay out a cogent and intelligent plan for ending terrorism and the global threat that it represets to the WHOLE WORLD in lieu of war... Anyone?

First of all... ELECTORAL COLLEGE. Learn something about it. For more information you may want to visit the Federal Election Commission. There you can learn all about how the voting system in America works and the LAW in certifying elections. This may aid you in denying ignorance and becoming informed about the truth.
Secondly, I never said that war was the default answer, but I believe it is here. Were you going to lay out the liberal plan for ending terrorism that avoids war? I'm still waiting for this stellar plan.

sminkeypinkey.......well said!
Some (errr...most:@@ conservatives dont want anyone to change their minds. Liberals are that way to an extend, but liberals are famous for being more open minded than right wing conservative fundamentalists. I guess no one wants to be told they are wrong, its just human nature, and Im sure kozmo is thinking this right now.

I do appreciate being told when I am incorrect, however, how can one be incorrect with things such as personal opinions?
Let's begin with the vote fiasco, since it has come up. Nowhere, in any recount, did Gore win Florida.
Secondly, felons are not permitted to vote in Federal elections, they lose this right with their conviction.
Thirdly the Articles of the Constitution define VERY CLEARLY the manner and time-frame within which a Federal Election is to be certified and by whom. Said Articles were ignored twice by the continued recount of only selected Democratic strongholds. In it's decision, the Supreme Court is compelled to follow the Articles of the Constitution and therefore had to end the recount. The law is not perfect, but it will prevail.
Next, yes, more conservatives support the war on terrorism than do liberals. Here in the States it is the liberal politicians that are stirring up the anti-war groups, not the conservatives, so there is a division among party lines on this issue.
My question still remains... If not war, then HOW do we put an end to terrorism peacefully. Please be detailed and succinct as I am fairly certain that many of the "Peaceful" methods have been tried and failed. Thanks.

- who said anything about the film being 100% factual representation? *HINT* It's a film. We know it's Moores' view. It's Moore's film. So what? It also encapsulates a lot of truth even if it isn't the absolute 100% truth.....we get the point that it is his view and therefore that 'colours' things. Duuuuuh! Do you not understand this?

Well, it's classified as a documentary and not your classical theatrical work of fiction. Last time I checked, documentaries were supposed to be 100% factual and free from the makers opinion.

Since when did any documentary report not have an editorial aspect?
Maybe that's what's so obviously wrong with some of America's news audiences, it seems more than a few of you think your news, like your documentaries, are completely free of editorial influence, line or direction and are the 100% unvarnished actual complete truth.
Oh dear.LMAO. [edit on 23-7-2004 by sminkeypinkey]
