Raj,
I have seen Michael Moore films before, I have seen clips of the film on
television, I have heard liberal commentators discuss the film (admitting
that it is propaganda), and I have seen Moore admit that his movie is
propaganda, and that his purpose in making the film is to defeat Bush in the
upcoming election. In fact, the ONLY place I have seen anyone refer to the
"truth" is this newsgroup.
By the way, I never said the movie was "filled with lies." That charge comes
from your twisted mind. I don't even think it is "filled with lies."
Instead, I consider the film as truthful as the typical political ad by both
sides.
I am suspicious of any Usenet nut who would believe everything said by a
political spokesman, whether that spokesman be Michael Moore or Rush
Limbaugh.
