  1. I believe that Michael Moore personally has a hatred for George Bush and used his fame to try to destroy President Bush in Farenheit 9/11. Moore made rediculous points to try to connect Bush to being friends Bin Laden. Even the biggest liberal couldn't beliveve this conspirises. Obviously Michael Moore has no respect for Bush because instead of calling him President Bush Moore decided to call him Mr. Bush. I would love to see Michael try to be President for a day. So, instead of making a movie about 9/11 he made a film do destroy Bush. I'm interested to see what Moore has to say about the Economy.

  2. I thought Michael Moore's documentary Fareheit 9/11 was really interesting. I thought that he had some good information and made some really good points. I could not get over the fact that the whole documentary seemed to be and attack at George Bush. I don't really like Bush so this documentary was really good for me. I liked how he made it sort of funny and sort in parts and then also contrasted into some sad parts for example when he showed Iraq being bombed. But overall i thought it was good and showed things about Bush that I did not know about him.

  3. The film we watched in class "Fahrenheit 9/11" was extremely controversial. Moore looks at every microscopic detail of the Bush Administration and expands the events leading up to 9/11. Whether they are true or not, he points out every mistake made by the administration. Moore goes to great lengths to make President Bush look like a complete idiot. He finds ways to link President Bush to the attacks on our country in any way possible. Michael Moore made ridiculous statements linking the Bush Administration to Al Qaeda in any way possible and insinuating that the President was funding terror. The film focused more on the problems with the Bush Administration then the actual events of September 11th. Moore also is extremely disrespectful to President Bush by referring to him as Mr. Bush or Bush, and playing pop music while he is talking. While the events of the War on Terror are extremely violent and painful to watch, if our President wants to take our country to war we should support his decision. The worst thing our country can do to our troops is not support them while they fight. Thousands of our troops were killed and are still being killed while in combat and America needs to support them. I found it disrespectful to the troops who are doing their jobs and to the Iraqi people for Moore to show the troops talk about killing Iraqis while listening to the song "The Roof is on Fire". These are my feelings about Michael Moore's documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11".

  4. I think that Michael Moore's documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11" was one sided. The entire movie slammed Bush. It made him look very dumb and uneducated, especially in the part of the film that showed Bush reading books to little kids at school. Most people would find that if they were the president and the U.S. was just attacked by terrorists, they would need a few minutes to collect their thoughts and figure out what to do. While Bush was reading Michael Moore was showing the time and making it look like Bush didn't know what to do. Michael Moore was also showing ties with the Bush family and Osama Bin Laden's family. That part of the film didn't make Bush look very good either.
