F911 controversy could work in our favor....

[Lindsey]

The repulsives are in such an uproar this film must truly be explosive. Hopefully,this will only increase public interest. Also, (I got this from another thread), I do think that Michael's next film should be investigating the dead intern/Scarborough story, along with the Newt Gingrich affair (while his wife had cancer during the Clinton impeahement), William Bennett's gambling obsession, Rush Limbaughs third divorce and his oxy addiciton....my God, I'm so glad "they've brought back honor to America...Geez...Michael has a lot of material...Hyprocrisy, American Style.

14. Thanks.....wasn't familiar w/ that story...too much other Sh*t that they..

...are busy doing to screw up our country....too much to pay attention too, eh?

2. Well, Mike has to be able to stay alive first

That's my concern.

Within a month, he's going to have close a half a million irate barstool patriots gunning for him, not to mention Team Bush with a dozen torture lawyers.

5. Can you imagine if some dumb freeper took a shot at him?

Not to turn Moore into a martyr or anything but I think it'd just prove how screwed up the people who hate him so much really are.

[Dogmudgeon]

10. That's just it

It's not paranoia from a trendy persecution complex -- the modern Conservative movement built itself from rage and hatred, and when something as powerful as F911 hits, a certain number of them are going to acheive critical mass.

I hope that they'll be able to exhaust their fury in non-violent ways, like making up a sarcastic name for him (like they did with "Hitlery KKKlintoon"), posting his private e-mail account and phone number on FreeRepublic, or calling him fat.

The negative blowback I see is more like ironic blowback. In about a month, George Bush is going to look like a model of sanity and common sense among right-wingers.

3. Could?

Will.

6. I hear Michael has beefed up

his security.

[MirrorAshes]

4. It absolutely does!

Any publicity is good publicity, and the more they whine the more people will be interested in whats getting them all so upset. Raising awareness of the film is all we really need right now! The controversy will do nothing but good.

8. God, I was just going to take off early next Friday...

now I think I'll take the whole damn day off...Hey...we could start a movement, call in sick, and all DU'ers and moveon folks could be at their respective theatres not only for the first night but the first show!!! Remember....wear blue!!!!!!

[noahmijo]

13. Why blue?

I'm willing to wear blue if it's a nationwide thing to signify that we're democrats and proud of it when we go to see the movie..is that why?

7. Remember Fox suing Franken over "Lies"?

Those freepers have a real flat learning curve.

[Lindsey]

9. That's something else we could add to the movie...

they call us dumb??!?!?! Let's review.......
