      Saw this at the Cinema, 1st half really good, second went down hill.

      Just showed how inept Hicks' mate is.

      If anyone is going to watch this, we warned, there is a beheading shown.

      Saw it at the cinema too, thought it was excellent, a real eye opener.

      One of the most alarming things was Bush spending so much time 'at the ranch' when he could have been having security meetings.

      Yeah used to have a copy of this on dvd till it disappeared somewhere.

      The part that still bugs me is a nonchalent Bush on a golf course giving it the "We must stop the terror...... now watch this drive"

      Yeah seriously, have you never seen Roger & Me about how Flint, Michigan has been decimated since the 1980s, after the closing of General Motors plant put tens of thousands out of work.

      I've seen it and just like Fahrenheit and Columbine, it is full of misleading crap, including inaccurate timelines that reverse cause and effect.

      :lmao:

      That he is an Excellent Custodian, Businessman, Billionaire, Trustworthy... etc. All the same sh*t.

      You know Hicks and Bush were business partners don't you?

      A lot of people believe the crap about Hicks being a good custodian at the time. 

      However, he was a very successful businessman, but he failed spectacularly in the sporting world because his business model does not work in sport (especially amidst a world wide credit contraction).

      Not sure what this has to do with Michael Moore?

      Nothing at all to do with Michael Moore.

      I think you may have misunderstood my post.

      The buffoonery of Bush highlighted in the film, was similar to that of Hicks, and the lies, and financial skulduggery that we saw here.

      Hence my comment of the same stench from the same sh*t.

      Plenty of distortion in the documentry especially how he lays the blame at the door step of the saudis.It actually blames the bush administartion for 9/11 but im of the opinion other forces were involved,other foreign agencies who benifited from 9/11.

      But he did expose what we already know and that is how the poor enlist and send thier young of to die in foriegn lands yet the rich and only one congressman had one son serving in the armed forces,pretty much like our goverment.

      Times of depression in the economey and recession the army is the best recruiter.
