Zebra 3 :/ - Documentaries like Fahrenheit 9/11 are pretty boring for those who follow the news on a regular basis. That said, I've seen another which covers somewhat the same shit as Moore, Control Room ('04).

Well, that's a tough call. I didn't really care for Fahrenheit 9/11, but I did enjoy Bowling for Columbine. Facts and arguments aside, Moore can just make a better film than these guys can.

I think they intentionally attempt to use his specific "style" in order to add effect, but it gets lost at times. Like I said, constant shots of Dick Morris pointing around NYC, talking about foiled terrorist plots against NYC landmarks, cuts back to Moore saying in a speech "there is no terrorist threat."

And the cast of characters in this one is great-- hacks from various conservative think tanks, Ann Coulter, Zell Miller, Ed Koch, and Dick Morris (just in case anybody wasn't aware, Dick Morris hasn't been a liberal for a while now).

Ann Coulter, the very same woman who recently reaffirmed on Hannity & Colmes her Middle East policy-- kill most muslims, force them to convert to Christianity, build shopping malls.

They use the tragedy/attacks of 9/11 in just as tasteless (arguably more so) a fashion as Moore has.

It dwells waaaay too long on the so-called "7 minutes" after Bush heard about the attacks. Their response? It was actually 5 minutes. :/

Then there's actually some douche bag saying "well, if Moore can't even get the time details right, I don't know about other stuff, blah blah, blibbity blah!"

Leftists make a big deal of those 7 (0r 5 or whatever) minutes, but I don't know it warranted an equally ridiculous retort in this film....

I rented it tonight, wasn't too impressed. In particular, they condemn Moore for exploiting the families of servicemen who died in combat.....by parading family members of servicemen who died in in combat. :/

The BEST part is when Zell Miller compares the war on terror to the nest of copper heads he finds in his yard while cleaning brush, or something. PRICELESS.

Then there's shots of Dick Morris constantly pointing at stuff in NYC.

Anybody else see this yet?
