Fahrenheit 9/11

I went to Hollywood video tonight and checked out two movies (for free, since we belong to their MVP program and since I won't put dime one into Michael Moore's pocket), Fahrenheit 9/11 and Fahrenhype 9/11 (the rebuttal).

Michael Moore tends to write off history. It was not just George W (and H.W.) Bush who believed that Saddam Hussein possessed WMD. Most of the world (both East and West) believed the same thing. Saddam was a pariah even amongst Arab nations. He was very dangerous. Nothing about that is mentioned in his movie. Also, Mr. Moore goes to great lengths to write a conspiracy theory about the Bush administration. If you want to see a good example of the conspiracy theory movie that I believe Moore used for an example, see Oliver Stone's J.F.K. I don't believe 70% of what Michael Moore stated in his movie any more than I believed 95% of J.F.K.

I am looking forward to seeing the other side of the coin in Fahrenhype 9/11 tomorrow night.

The problem with Micheal Moore, and the other liberals, is that they lack the brains and insight to discuss Saddam in a tactical military fashion. OK- we can argue the fact that Saddam had weapons of "mass destruction" in his arsenal but there is no denying that Saddam had weapons of "regional destruction". He already used weapons of "regional destruction" on the Kurds in the north. Of course, the happy tap-dancing liberals cannot picture the same gases being released in 10 American urban cities at the same time. The only "burst radius" the liberals want to discuss is the coverage of their hair spray, not the poison gases a terrorist may use.
