Yeah, I'm a little behind, but I just saw F911 for the first time. Wow. Just...wow.
Please do not vote until you see this movie. ESPECIALLY if you have friends/relatives in the military. I realize that it is a priority when you are fighting for your country to support its leader. But please, watch the movie. There's a response film, watch that as well. There are so many things you just don't realize until someone shows you. Like the soldiers writing home to their families, saying that they don't know why they are killing innocent Iraqi civilians, and asking their parents not to re-elect their president. Those same soldiers dying weeks later in the streets of Iraq. A government who supports the war, but who won't send their own children to fight in it. Only ONE member of Congress has a child in the war. One. And watch where GW was and what he did when he was informed of the 911 attacks on 911. What was he doing the months before, when the FBI sat and WARNED them that there was a planned attack by Osama Bin Laden? During his first 8 months in office, he was on vacation 40% of the time. I'm glad he improved his golf swing while the terrorists were training here on American soil to attack us. Let's not even talk about Florida and the election in 2000.
Sure, you can think that these are just stories that Michael Moore is pulling out of his ass to get you to turn against GW, but he's got the evidence in this documentary. He's got the documents, dated (the FBI warning papers, dated March 2001, for example), and interviews with key players in the government, soldiers who would rather go to jail than go back to Iraq to kill innocent people. The proof is there.
George Bush IS Saddam Hussein. He IS Osama Bin Laden. The rest of the world looks at him the same way we look at them. He is the bad guy, and now, so are we. We are the terrorists. Man am I PROUD.
Edit: FYI, I mean NO disrespect for ANYONE in our military. I respect and admire what they do, and would never have the courage to do it myself. My views are not against the military or the people in it, but the war itself and the leader.
