LOS ANGELES, Sept. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- 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," says Aman Verjee, co-editor of the anthology. "Send us Moore's lies and we'll give you the truth on President Bush's record and policies. We want to give people who unsuspectingly buy Moore's propaganda a chance to trade it in for a book that's positive and insightful," added Verjee. "This book sets the record straight: George W. Bush deserves more than another term in office; he deserves our gratitude."

[slappypan]

17. Michael Moore is very deceptive

what with his "editing" and his "camera angles" and "pacing" and other dirty trcks that make his films "watchable" and "coherent".

[KurtNYC]

27. So their film is done all in one take

it is cinema verite like Warhol's "Trash" ?

I note their all-cap title which is probably just the way the scream it.

[cthrumatrix]

[bearfan454]

5. This makes me want to buy a copy of F911 and donate it to the library

[NanBo]

6. Awesome!

So we could all keep buying F9/11 and getting these chumps to buy them back from us!! Think of the SALES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) We could bankrupt the morans!

[KurtNYC]

14. No, you buy F911 for $20 then they will take that away

and give you their crap which costs them maybe 85-cents a copy.

Welcome to DU

[NanBo]

23. Damn

Well then,
Nevermind.

(Thanks for the welcome :)

7. I do believe that if I watched

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.

I would become unbalanced and no amount of mind-altering chemicals would save me.

9. okay, here's what we do...

buy a f911 dvd...watch it, turn friends on to it, sell it to this asshat.

buy another f911 dvd...watch it, turn friends on to it, sell it to this asshat.

buy another f911 dvd...watch it, turn friends on to it, sell it to this asshat.
...
...
...
ad infinitum.

sounds like an extremely easy way to get this guy to subsidize our cause.

[AlCzervik]

10. Desperate, table for one?

[vogonity]

11. Wow

Stunning. If I didn't laugh I'd cry

[Cocoa]

13. lol

check out my edit. gmta! :-)

[SCDem]

12. Buy-back is not what they are doing

They will give you a copy of their video in exchange for F-911. I would buy more to give to friends and relatives before I'd buy more so that these people could send their Heil the leader book to me.

[Moderator]

15. Reason for move

This is a press release. We only allow liberal or Democratic press releases on LBN. THanks for understanding.

[ChrisK]

18. Wow, free thought..how dangerous

It must be scary for the folks trying to get this the attention they crave to have anyone in America thinking there is more then one side to what President Bush is doing...I wonder when the "book burnings" will start?

Fear is the last bastion of control

[Vickers]

19. That's not a buy-back

That is more like trading your Fender Stratocaster for a penny whistle.

[Iris]

20. Bill Bennett?

Hasn't he been totally discredited by now?

[DemoTex]

21. They can have my F-9/11 copy when they pry it from my cold dead hands.

Stupid bastards.

[Catfight]

22. Same people who burn books, what a strange bunch of people.

[Insomnicole]

24. Hear that sound?

That's Michael Moore laughing his ass off.

Don't these people ever learn that the more they talk this stuff up, the better it sells? There's nothing like telling people they shouldn't see something to make them want to see it.

25. 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.>>>

This coven of "all-stars" strikes me as a rogues gallery of greedheads, walking corpses and degenerate gamblers...why in hell would anybody listen to anything this collection of shitheels is mumbling about? Why not include, Neil Bush, Ken Lay and Michael Jackson (MJ in order to reach out to the "youth vote")...?

These people are so crooked they probably have to screw their legs into their pants every morning...

[in_cog_ni_to]

26. The people who bother to buy F 911

won't be selling it to those assholes. IMCPO :hi:

[HughBeaumont]

28. SIIIIIIIIIIGGGGHHHH . . .

Again, WHAT is he LYING about? Can any of these fucking Repubic lice answer that?

It just gets dumber . . . and DUMBER . . . and DUMBER. Morans.
