Havent seen it yet. Its funny though. No one complained when everyone picked/picks on Bill Clinton. Rush Limbough made a drug induced career out of it. Yet, if you pick on any of the Bushs or god forbid Reagan... Watch out because your spewing anti american propoganda.



News Flash!! Democrat, Republican it doesnt matter they are all POLITICIANS and they are all CORRUPT... ALL OF THEM.

I coud,n't believe Michael Moore made a documentary like that and is showing it in theaters. Ofcourse i'm Canadian so i'm not exposed to all the propoganda crap.



Not like there isn't any going on in Canada, just it's not as blunt or direct.

I don't really think its propoganda...he gives a fact and states his opinion...not once does he say that anyone else should follow what he says. He just wants people to know the facts. WHen I hear propaganda...I think its bad infomation that is trying to lie to you. I don't think this documentry was like that.

true, but there is always two sides to every story and the movie only presented one side. So in a sense it is propaganda because you are forcing your viewers to see only one side, your side (Michael Moore's side) or anyone who supported Al Gore in the last election.

The news networks have only given the other side since the fall of 2001, so use that to balance it out.
