Argghh...

Damnitt, I said no more politics for a few days, but I found this over at thecrankpot and thought it should be posted. 'Tis a nice little sum up of many of the questions raised in Farenheit... enjoy.

Why the far right is trying to keep Americans from seeing Fahrenheit 9/11
... and the lies, frauds and deceptions they're using -


The issue then becomes, is the movie accurate?
Do the Saudis own 7% of this country?
Does the President’s family have deep ties to the Bin Laden family?
Did the President arrange for the Bin Laden family to be flown out of this country on 09/13, while there was a ban on flights, and then lie about it for two years?
Have they made the billions of dollars from the Saudis that Moore asserts?
Did the Taliban meet with GW Bush in the late 90s to discuss a pipeline through Afghanistan?
Did GW Bush sit in that classroom reading My Pet Goat while we were under attack?
Did he use macho tag lines, while soldiers were dying, such as bring em on and we’re gonna smoke em out?
Did the White House really turn over the President’s military records with the name of James Bath crossed out with marker?
Did the Patriot Act get passed without being read?
Did Halliburton make billions upon billions of dollars in no-bid contracts from this war?
Is that profiting, from a war, which some are calling war profiteering?
Was the man GW Bush named to run Afghanistan, Hamid Karzi, a consultant for Unocal, the same company that wanted that infamous pipeline?
Did Bush spend 42% of his first year on vacation?
Did he not read the intelligence briefings, which may have tipped him off to 9/11?
Were the soldiers lied to about how long they would be in Iraq?

...

Were 27,000 votes not counted in Florida?
Did John Ashcroft really lose a senatorial race to a dead guy?
Does Dubya seem like a dishonest fellow? ( I know this wasn't particularly addressed in the film)
Were the saudis that got flown out of the country on sep. 13th really let go without even being questioned by the FBI?


There are a few on here that I know are questionable if put into the proper context, but nonetheless a nice summary of some of the things addressed in the film.
