Where did Michael Moore get all this awesome footage? Does he
describe his methods in any great detail or is he secretive about it? Does he have "leak sources" to protect?

Most impressive was all the footage from within Iraq and Walter Reed, particularly the house raid and of course the mangled people, the amputees.

1. Gutsy
camerman and independent journalists with the courage to report what's happening, and resist the corporate careerism offered most journalists. That's who. And thank them well, with donations, and thank the journalists whose cameras are 'mistaken' for rocket launchers all the time.

6. a lot of that was shown on international news

7. The best one are actually very public ones?
Do you remember a bunch of news footage taken before 9-11. All bush administration members were telling that Sadam had no weapon capability and stuff?

That was reall powerful. How can even freeper dispute that? If a person is a bit rational than freepers, those are the definite 'lethal facts' for this mal administration.
