bush is an idiot
i know this isn't shocking news to any of us, but it's even clearer now that i've seen Fahrenheit9/11. michael moore is absolutely brilliant at putting together the pieces of one of the most frightening periods in our lives...ever. he is quite skilled at juxtaposing footage and music and documents. his handling of the world trade center attacks themselves was both understated and moving. the story of a mother with two children in the military is powerful and compelling. and most of all, he is not afraid to speak the truth: BUSH IS AN IDIOT.
when he was appointed to office 3 1/2 years ago, we were promised "four years of cringing." little did we know just exactly how bad that would be. embarrassing us on the world stage; sinking into the quagmire in the middle east; watching the deficit return and balloon to record levels; wincing as our "leader" stumbles through another speech. who could have imagined just how awful this all has been?
so my advice to you, dear readers, is to get up from your chair and proceed immediately to the theater to see this film. think about it for a few days. tell everyone that you meet to go and see it. initiate conversations regarding this film everywhere you go. and then go see it again. there is so much information packed into these two hours that it bears repeated watching.
the ultimate tribute to mr. moore will not be his palme d'or from cannes or the oscar (should hollywood have the cujones to give it to him). rather, it will be the end of bush's term of office and the swearing in of a president who will have been truly elected. this is a task that we can all work to make happen over the next four months. let's make it happen! |
