Michael Moore's FH911 is causing big headache for Repubs....

[kentuck]

They have succeeded in getting the rating changed to "R" but that is not enough. They need to stop people from seeing this movie at all. It is devastating for Bush just before the election. I'm thinking we need to push this movie as much as possible because it is the balance that Rush Limbaugh likes to think is himself. And it scares the hell out of the Bush people that some propaganda may get out that they are not in control of themselves.

1. it's not propaganda---it's the truth

6. Exactly. Not propaganda. The Purveyors of Propaganda, as always

throughout the history of Totalitarianism, have always been more than ready to accuse their opponents (who ususally just want to be free) of what they do so openly.

Think Nazis and Jews
Think the Soviets and the guys selling Levis in Moscow
Think Ferdinand Marcos and Benino Aquino
Think the Busheviks and Liberals

Always the same, even if the packaging is gussied up and re-marketed to a gullible populace.

10. Heh.

They're even more afraid of that...

2. I find I can bear their collective pain with enormous fortitude....

3. Make your....

own fliers with the bold headline reading: THE FILM THE REPUBLICANS AND BUSH ADMINISTRATION DON'T WANT YOU TO SEE!! and hand them out at your local public venues--theaters, parks, libraries, car-windshields, Starbucks, record stores--GET THE WORD OUT---sooo grassroots and all! DO IT NOW!!

4. Ashcroft announces all theaters showing FH911 could be possible

targets for something bad to happen somewhere in the United States on some day after June 25th. ONLY theaters showing FH911 though, of course all theaters showing Disney movies have added extra security so that their future little neocons can watch in safety.

(a JOKE: so far, but it wouldn't surprise me if the Repugs would go to extremes-remember the abortion clinic bomber?)

5. The movie that saved the world!

We are talking about the end of the world here aren't we??

Would there be another free election?

Is this a free election? (Not really)

[Voltaire]

7. Theaters had better be careful with that R rating

I hate to ALWAYS be a tin foil kind of guy, but I would not doubt there will be spies looking for underage teens not accompanied by a parent or adult for the sole purpose of shutting those theaters down on a real or imagined violation. Let's be smart and keep our eyes open for that.

12. Rating system is voluntary... not legally enforceable... but:

it is in theater owners best interest to comply. *(See history of the ratings system: the rating system, legally, is entirely voluntary; however, few mainstream producers outside the pornography niche decline to submit to the rating system due to potential effects on revenues (see NC-17, below), so the system has a de facto compulsory status in the industry. more: http://www.brainyencyclopedia.com/encyclopedia/m/mp/mpaa_film_rating_system.html)



However, there is nothing (legally binding) to prevent adults from agreeing to accompany a teen in as their guardian....Take note, my fellow DUers....

8. FH9/11

From the reviews I've read, this movie is going to blow a huge hole in the Bushco's facade.

I think it's going to be devastating.

13. Bush states he's looking forward to answering any questions

the public might have regarding FH911 after he views it with Cheney. You know he wouldn't watch a movie without Cheney to tell him if he liked it or not, duh!
