just watched micheal moores' 'canadian bacon' - the man is a prophet
a war ordered by the MIC, a prez ready to start a war for higher approval, a sec of state that was a former arms merchant, the press complicit in spreading lies and fear, portraying a harmless country as a threat, a brainless citizenry ready to fall for any lies that will justify their hatred... oy!

1. I've owned that one for years
And it really is amazing how much life imitates art. Especially since the film was made well before 9/11. :scared:

3. Kinda of like that Onion article they wrote at the start of the Bush admin

They predicted it all...
"Our Long National Nightmare Of Peace And Prosperity Is Finally Over"

Bush swore to do "everything in (his) power" to undo the damage wrought by Clinton's two terms in office, including selling off the national parks to developers, going into massive debt to develop expensive and impractical weapons technologies, and passing sweeping budget cuts that drive the mentally ill out of hospitals and onto the street.

During the 40-minute speech, Bush also promised to bring an end to the severe war drought that plagued the nation under Clinton, assuring citizens that the U.S. will engage in at least one Gulf War-level armed conflict in the next four years.
creepy
