Re: [Vision2020] Radio Free Moscow presents Michael Moore�s Fahrenheit 9/11 Showing and Panel Discussion

[Pat Kraut]

I went to the panel discussion and amoung other things was terribly
disappointed with what I assume to be college students who accepted the film
without question. Even when flaws were pointed out they cannot accept the
possiblility that Moore might be wrong they could only attack. From
professors to students the idea of research into 'truth' seems out of the
question. I liked what Atwood and Lawford said of course. Most of the other
panelists had an agenda to make sure that we all knew all the horrible
things the US has done and how we deserved the attacks on 9/11 and what ever
else is coming. It was a very disappointing event for me.
Anyone else there?

> Fahrenheit 9/11 is Michael Moore's view on what has happened in America
since the 2000 Presidential election.  The movie explores the controversial
election of George W. Bush, the repercussions of September 11, 2001 on
American foreign and domestic policy, the USA Patriot Act, the war in Iraq
and the Bush family's relationship with the royal house of Saud of Saudia
Arabia.  Moore uses interviews, archived footage and his brand of antics to
explain why President Bush cannot be trusted to have America's best interest
at heart.
