Fahrenheit 9/11

Anyone saw it this weekend? I did, it was a very powerful movie. Now my political views may have something to do with my reaction to the film. Even so, if you are the most conservative person, you will walk from this movie with some questions. I ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO SEE THIS MOVIE!

For thoses who saw the movie, what did you think?

Fahrenheit 9/11

I saw this movie on opening night and was glad that I saw it. It opened my eyes to a lot of things that I didn't know about Bush and his crooked @$$ family, about the war and what the soliders think, and other things in general.

I felt that this should make people VERY aware of what Bush is all about. I mean how can a man go on vacation after only 3 weeks in office and then when he was told about the possible attacks did nothing about it. He wanted to play GOLF instead.

When he was told about the attacks as they were happening, he sat there. Looking like a fool. I mean he kept on reading the book. I mean, he should have jumped up politely excused himself and did what he was suppose to do as the President.

Then he had the nerve to fly Bin Laden's family out of the country when all this happened. Now I know that Bin Laden's family stopped talking to him or whatever and the family was close friends of the Bush family, but if they knew anything about the person who attacked America they would not have been able to LEAVE the country. Friends or not!

Maybe I'm a little harsh and maybe not, but I would not want my President to sit and read a book while the country that he is suppose to be in control of is being attacked.

IMO,
Q

Thanks for the tip. My homepage only gives me times for the Grand. I thought about ti last night and figured if any location would have it, it would have to be Canal Place. I may go and see it this week. Is there a lot of gore in it? I heard that it was pretty graphic.

Angry I seent it!!!!!!!!

That joint made me !!!!!!!! I know for sure I will NOT be voting for the son of a Bush this year!!!!! Everything that was shown in the movie has further made me realize what an idiot we have for a President. If Bill Clinton had pulled any of the stuff that Dubya pulled during his tenure, he would've been burned at the stake and his ashes would've been saved just to spit on!!!!!

If his reaction was an issue then why did you wait 3 years to bring it up? I think you are a Michael Moore puppet.

If he did jump up and leave, then what was he supposed to do? What would have changed?

"great answer". If his reaction was such an issue, why did you wait 3 years to complain?

You must not have been listening 3 years ago when the complaints were rolling out.

The entire country was shocked and horrified on September 11th. Your boy handled it in a piss poor way and still is. That opinion is nothing new and clearly you and those like-minded hear what you want to hear.

As always you don't know what you are talking about. The country was shocked by 9/11 not by the fact that George Bush didn't jump up and run out of a school.

Link to story that quotes the school's principal on Bush's handling of the situation.

First of all, no one said that he had to jump up, but showing that he is the PRESIDENT of this country, by politely excusing himself to do what the h$$l he was in office to do. Which, if you don't know, is make sure that the country is safe (whether or not its his main job) and if not, then see to that there is something done to rectify the problem. We were ATTACKED and he sat there reading the book, which made him look DUMB!!!!

Now, say and believe what you want, but this is my opinion.

**dusting shoulders off!!**
