1. Looks like all the stations
are trying to scoop one another on actual news now!! Don't tell me journalists are actually starting to be journalists now instead of mouthpieces.

13. liberals are a bigger audience than cons now
believe it, when you add up liberals, progressives, moderates, independents, and the non-kook/Randroid libertarians, and plenty of "paleo" conservatives and Rockefeller Republicans, we are all a majority. The hardcore Neo-Cons, Fundies, and Bigots are fewer than they may appear.

18. Liberals etc. have been the majority right through the Bush years...
One of the lies that the Conservative-owned media perpetuates is
that Neo-cons, fundies, etc. are much greater in number in this country
than is realistic. Just because they make a lot of noise doesn't
mean there are a lot of them.

In David Brock's book "Blinded by the Right" he talks about how clearly
Conservatives know that, being in the minority, they can not win fairly.
They have consciously adopted their sleazeball, dirty-pool tactics based
on that knowledge. Its part of their plan to appear greater in number,
therefore more intimidating.

The Neocons also believe there are a bunch more of them out there too
intimidated by the "Liberal" Media to come out. But their tactics have
mostly brought a bunch of nascent fascists out of the closet, alienating
more decent, rational conservatives.

4. Is that release date confirmed?
I heard he was pushing for a July 4th weekend release, but maybe a holiday weekend isn't the best time to premiere a movie, given the amount of people travelling (which may or may not happen, given gas prices)

3. I saw part of it. Looks awesome. I hope that is the TV ad for the film.
It makes Shrub look terrible in 30 seconds and in his own words.

5. OMG
NoBushCriticism is showing snippets from Fahrenheit 9/11? And CBS is blasting Bush on four other fronts? I'm in heaven. I'm lightheaded. I might have to go lie down before I can drive home and watch all this wonderfulness.

12. My mother's birthday is June 25th....
I emailed her the link to the story with a big "Happy Birthday!" message attached. Needless to say, the whole family will be in the movie theater that night.

And yes, I plan on owning the DVD when it comes out.

19. I hope included is the clip of * pumping his fist before announcing
the invasion of Iraq. The BBC carried the feed and put it on the air a couple of minutes early and Great Britain got to see it.

I didn't see it but I read about it. "Feels good!" the cheer-leading usurper proclaims as people start to be slaughtered.

20. RoundRock, I saw it too on the NBC Nightly News.
The trailer for the movie is what it looked like and it was just f*cking stunning.

People are going to freak out when the trailers start running of this movie.

I wish the trailers to be released were downloadable somewhere!
