Well, Matt just posted a link to the trailer for Fahrenheit 911 to my comments for reasons I can't fathom. Maybe he's trying to get my hackles up, who knows. I haven't really gone off about Michael Moore in a while because while I despise him, I've been trying to understand exactly why I hate him so. On one hand, the idea that so many people are getting their political opinions from a man with a very obvious agenda is disconcerting. If you're going lean to the left politically, I have no problem with that. If you're going to lean to the left politically because some dude that lives in Hollywoodland made some witty "movies", well, that's just plain retarded.

There's another point in there too. He is rich. Really rich. He's also fat and white. Last time I checked, this is why liberals hated conservatives. Hrmm, fat, rich, white, lives in a world where money and fame disconnect him from the daily life of 95% of his fellow Americans who claim he's the only one who understands the "people". Who are these "people?" Rich, liberal, media dependent douche bags? I sure as hell am not one of these people.

One of the biggest things that upsets me about this new "movie" is the fact that none of it seems too amazingly shocking. A politically powerful family from America (The Bush Family) has ties to a politically powerful family from a allied nation (Saudi Arabia). Wow, you've blown my fucking mind Mr. Moore. John Aschroft wants to take peoples' freedoms away. My God, why have you been hiding this information? People who murdered people in roadside missile attacks in Iraq are being mistreated by the friends of the people they killed. You could topple governments with this smoking gun! Rich congress members who voted for the war don't want their trust fund kids to enlist in the army. Man, you've changed the political landscape permanently!

There's nothing here except venom and an unfocused, vitriolic attack against "the powers that be", that just happen to "be" George W. Bush. Then again, I don't recall Mr. Moore being all that up in arms when Clinton got political and financial support from Red - Fucking - China for his reelection, and then turned a blind eye to the fact that they murder their own citizens on a daily basis and gave them Most Favored Nation trade status. No, the fact that a powerful family who was about to get attacked in retribution for the 9/11 attacks pulled some strings to get a plane out of the country is proof that there's a New World Order afoot.

Wake up, d bags.
