this was supposed to be my followup to bogala:

He did give the speach at columbine. if you go
here michael moore defends what the movie showed.
he also admits that the "cold dead hands" quote itself was
taken from a denver t.v. ad and not from the actual speach.
But he does post the video and the whole transcript of the
speach.

Michael Moore also refutes a lot of other bogus right-wing
claims about that movie in this message.

I'd have thought he would have taken full advantage of that
connection ... how about Nixon? Plenty of references to
Nixon I assume??

I thought the movie was about Bush? if it is, background
info is essential, is it not? Adds depth.

it is not about Bush specifically but rather about the lies
told to the world and the American public to get us into a
war for the profit of a handful of corporations. The Bush
background that is included is more relevant to this
specific story.

this is one place where F 9/11 is a better movie than
Bowling for Columbine. THis film has a central thesis and
everything in the film is in support of that thesis. It is
a very focused movie unlike Bowling for Columbine which is
more general about it's premise.

eh, he made it look like he made that speech at columbine
that Tuesday. Down the street from the shootings.. Which he
didn't..Moore does that shit. He takes you off onto a whole
different mind set from the true context of things. He
leaves little holes so he can wriggle out, too. He flaps his
lips more than bush..What fallacies am I not noticing? Not
fair.

Not that Moore doesn't have good points. I like his films.
They're entertaining, (docs are my fav) but they are often
not the whole story..I can't look into the heart of
everyman. I don't know bush's true motivation, but in the
spirit of America's past. I imagine he's trying to spread
democracy in a theocratic archaic middle east... Like we
tried in Vietnam. It hurts. It's risky, often doesn't work
and probably won't again.

you're right, it was in Denver not Columbine, 10 days after
the shooting.

i just saw it.

it's propaganda, ofcourse. clips are cut and pasted as he
wanted them... this does NOT make the facts any less
relevant. this did not make up any lies or lessen any
truths.

now go see it and stop buying shit. vote nader.

I'm interested in this movie. Speaking of good greens, have
you seen the Penn & Teller "Bullshit!" episode about the
"war on drugs"? I also enjoy their show.

Its not that internationally people obtain a point of view
about America through Mike Moore who is a component of
popular culture but America leads globalistation (a right
wing invention for colonisation), he is barely scraping the
surface and I think its what he get away with. Unfortunately
we get the most inane rubbish from American Media outlets
shoved down our throats on a daily basis misinforming us
about worl wide events, like Voice over America on our local
public access, mainly ethnic channel or 2020 which tells us
about rich old Americans cloning their pets or babies or
using ECT treatment to make a person into a genius or an
master painter by giving the treatment another name and the
reporter undergoing Electric Shock treatment for the story.
Every day on the news the CIA is plotting to bury the
stories of the abuses at Abu Ghabib, starting with the
beheading of David Berg at said prison, well documented on
the net. If we are a bit confused we know you are not all
crazy :) its a media blitz and Mike is putting the shits up
Bush which he deserves for lying.

Come on... Charles Heston NRA president was making speeches
a week after the Columbine shootings. I laughed my head off
at Gus Van Saints "Elephant" as it was pure exploitation

How could this be propaganda when it is well documented,
open source (in CIA terms) on the net. Have they found the
weapons of mass destruction? What do people know about the
Carygle group, Haliburton, and Betechel, all on the net -
corpwatch.org and others - just decode it. Propaganda could
be defined as taking one point of view of a given situation
and is well used by the mainstream media so Michael Moore is
simply taking the piss. The censorship is in place so you
only hear one point of view every day so if Mike is doing
it, it must be wrong.

See what propoganda is:

Bogala says:

spirit of America's past. I imagine he's trying to spread
democracy in a theocratic archaic middle east...


This is propaganda in action but I totally understand but
there is still no excuse for this kind of ignorance. e.g.
the first wide spread computer virus was developed in
Pakistan in the 1980's called C-Brain where cyberpunk was
invented. And according to my TV there are many christian
archaic backwards American groups in the US who believe
things like the LEFT BEHIND series who are completely nuts
and are running your country right now.

If we can keep the Nuke ships out of our harbour we will
save you with our nuclear free zone but not if Don Brash
(opposition leader) has anything to do with it :)

It also depends on whether Bush can bribe the Supreme Court
to fix another election....

Are you always that obnoxious to people? its a little
childish dont you think and a bit tired.

Well documented on net and I havent seen the movie yet so it
better live up to what I am expecting from it but knowing
the facist country America has become I seriously doubt it.
We have been given 1 single screening at the film festival
late in July after the propaganda machines have buried it
and dissected it but it will appear later as our
monopolistic amerian owned cinema will be dying to make a
killing.
