I watched it with a group of friends,2 Republicans and 4 Demorcrats,
and they were all unimpressed. I don't think any release will be very
successful. It will be ironic if it has the opposite of the intended
effect. It might be beneficial for the Republicans to subsidize a
pay-per-view showing of it.

Just a thought,

Ripley

Why? What could possibly be gained by selling 7 copies of FAHRENHEIT 911
on LaserDisc? Moore's lies will seem just as convincing to the cowardly and
weak willed on DVD.

$120 million in box office says different.

I would have thought that it would have done that in France.<g>

I don't believe we were discussing a theatrical release, however.

I wonder how many people bought the Star Wars Phantom Menace release after
forcing themselves to sit through that film once...

Someone with limited tallent discovered that enough prople hate President Bush
that they could make a lot of money by making a movie that attacking him. That
is why this film played so well in the Islamic world. I wonder how many
servicemen died as a result of some being inspired by this work or art. I'm
sure Mr. Moore is too busy counting his money to be concerned about that.

Do you also wonder how many servicemen (and women) died as a result of
some being inspired by Geedubbya's arrogant, egotistical, air-headed
challenge "Bring 'em on !!!" ? Hint: the number is nearing 1000, and
still counting. I'm sure Mr. Bush is too busy counting his political
contributions to be concerned about that.

Yes, President George W. Bush should have waged a more sensitive war on the
cold blooded killers of innocents throughout the world. Shame on him for
standing up to terrorists and taking the fight to them. What was he thinking?
We have not found any terrorists in Afghanistan or Iraq, just misunderstood
people trying to make the world a better place. Right?

If you think that President George W. Bush has conducted a poor and/or
ineffective campaign against the enemies of peace and civilization in the war
on terrorism, please try to explain why all the world's "bad guys" are rooting
for a Kerry presidency.

Shame on the poster for confusing courage, conviction, and strength for
egotism and arrogance.
