1. AND...
when pointed out Moores point about who serves in Iraq (poor), McCain says, "Well then I agree with him"

4. Had he seen the movie
He would have realized that he wasn't showing Iraq as a place as peace, but as a place where ACTUAL PEOPLE LIVED THEIR LIVES BEFORE BEING BLOWN UP BY OUR BOMBS. Is that not true?

8. I think the media ought to show those clips.
And let people decide for themselves.

3. But of course!
The GOP always criticizes things they don't know about.

The only one who needs to see it is the one who writes the talking points.

I'm still laughing about David Drier getting his ass kicked by Moore after attacking him, then admitting he hadn't seen the movie.

5. He's telling the usual lie..
that Moore depicted Iraq as being a paradise before we invaded.

Moore showed two tiny clips of people walking around doing normal day to day activities. That's more than a little but of a stretch, don't you think?

6. What a fucking dick
Edited on Mon Aug-30-04 10:40 PM by tridim
Moore did not portray Iraq as peaceful, he portrayed Iraqis as PEOPLE. Gawd I hate McCain. Go strait to hell John you lying sack of crap.

Edit: At least McCain's little admission gives Moore more fodder for his articles.

7. Gee, do you think he might be telling a little lie
about not seeing the film. I'll bet everybody in Wash DC has seen the film; Hell, I'll bet everybody in Bush's own family has seen the film. These people are such liars it's unreal. I used to respect McCain, but not any more.

10. McCain accidentally promotes Moore's film without even seeing it.

11. Imagine Roger Ebert reviewing a film he never saw...
That's what I tell Freepers who have an "opinion" on F911 when they never saw it.

It's like saying you play classical guitar because you play air guitar to Vivaldi's Four Seasons.

12. mccain also told tweety......
that every intelligence agency said that Iraq had WMD.......NOT FUCKING TRUE!

As we all know, the DIA, DOE, INR, THE intelligence branch of the air force, and even the CIA (a february memo to the WH before the war as reported by Newsweek)had serious doubts that Iraq had WMD/nuclear weapons/unmanned aerial...THESE REPUBS KEEP LIEING ABOUT THIS WITHOUT BEING CHALLENGED BY THE MEDIA AND EVEN THE DEMS!
