Group offers to buy back copies of "dangerous" F9/11 DVD. Seriously.
This is from www.pabaah.com , my personal favorite RW moran site.

Similar to Gun Buy-Backs, World Ahead Publishing Exchanges Fahrenheit 9/11 for Copies of THANK YOU, PRESIDENT BUSH


LOS ANGELES, September 17, 2004

In an effort to ensure the safety of American homes, World Ahead Publishing, publisher of THANK YOU, PRESIDENT BUSH, announces its Fahrenheit 9/11 DVD Buy-Back program for U.S. purchasers of Michael Moore's documentary. In urban areas, city leaders periodically sponsor gun buy-back programs to help reduce gun violence. Similarly, the Fahrenheit 9/11 DVD Buy-Back program is designed to protect Americans from harm, especially young children who might accidentally slip this dangerous propaganda into the living room DVD player.

Beginning October 5th, the day Moore's documentary goes on sale, World Ahead Publishing will offer citizens the opportunity to exchange their copies of Fahrenheit 9/11 for THANK YOU PRESIDENT BUSH: REFLECTIONS ON THE WAR ON TERROR, DEFENSE OF THE FAMILY, AND THE REVIVAL OF THE ECONOMY, with no questions asked.

Unlike Moore's film, which deceptively splices film footage to score its points, Thank You, President Bush discusses the facts. This book's all-star list of contributors includes Art Laffer, the father of supply-side economics; George Shultz, former Secretary of State; James Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family; and Bill Bennett, former Secretary of Education. Vice President Dick Cheney also contributes a chapter on foreign policy, and the President's brother, Gov. Jeb Bush, pens a moving and personal introduction. All 29 writers are experts in their topics, addressing such important issues as national security, the economy, and social policy in straightforward language.

Moore's work isn't a documentary. It's a dangerous weapon that shouldn't be left lying around the house.

*************************

These are the same people who have no problem with letting the assault weapons ban expire, but everyone knows an AR-15 assault rifle isn't NEARLY an dangerous as a movie...:eyes: :puke:

2. All I can say is these idiots have too much money.
Maybe a miracle will happen and they will actually watch F911 and go WOW.

6. I am officially amused.
Never mind that I could have been a conservative troll who wanted to check the site out then changed his mind after seeing that.

8. Yeah, the guy who runs PABAAH is a cowardly piece of shit.
His entire site, except for the front page, is for members only. He tries to reach people with his "Boycott every movie that comes out" message, but anyone who might be curious has to pay to read the articles he posts. You can't even send him e-mail without being a member.

But I feel proud every time his site labels me a "leftist troll".

7. So they're smarter than the freepers
Just marginally. I'd still prefer Forrest Gump over one of them on my trivial pursuit team though.

10. What about Ripped copies?
I had considered making several copies of the movie for all my family so they could see it... Hopefully, they won't be able to exchange it.

11. that's how we shut it down
Moore and LG Films have already gone on record as saying they don't mind people making ripped copies. So, make a whole pile of them, and send 'em in. Watch and see what happens.

12. Oh, this is rich. Look what we appear to stand for
Edited on Mon Sep-20-04 12:08 PM by theexpat
-snip-

Today’s Democrats appear to stand for:

* United Nations control over American foreign policy
* Class warfare
* Racial division
* Higher taxes
* Gay marriage
* Abortion
* Flag burning
* Anti-military attitudes
* The removal of all public reference to God

-snip-

Geeze, they don't even have the balls our throw around outright lies. They aren't hard core repukes! They're pansies!

Oh, and I just noticed they want Moore to be charged with treason. Yeah, right.

14. The truth has always been a powerful weapon
Old version: The pen is mightier than the sword.

New version: The documentary is mightier than the AR-15 assault rifle.
