25. Michael Moore F9/11
Edited on Sat Jan-08-05 11:31 AM by malaise
has had a profound influence on American society. So has Nader - a man of impeccable integrity and decency.
Since most rational people know that something went 'radically wrong' on Nov 2, Dumbya et all have a rude awakening coming. There will be exposure after exposure and several interests groups will publicly let them know that they cannot be bought like the 'impression managers'.
Moore opened eyes across the US and the globe. It was the first time millions were forced to think in ages.

I like empirical evidence and it seems to me that given Ws ratings, the chaos in Iraq, the shady appointments, and the wide suspicion across the US that something went wrong and something dangerous is going on, it will not be happy days for this bunch. Privatizing social security will be a serious political error. It will bring more angry people together.

The problem with greed is that the greedy never know when to stop and therefore self destruct. The unpopularity will grow exponentially and he already is the least popular second term Pres.

Expose the rest of the 'presstitutes' - who was or is on the take. I am sure more than a few are shaking right now as one of their own goes down. Get out the popcorn and watch them crumble.

Moore has opened eyes and minds and even MSM can't stop the process. Daily they are being challenged by the public - their credibility has long been shot, but now people who didn't know this (don't ask me why) understand for themselves thanks to Moore.

Farenheit 9/11 is seminal work - an absolute classic on several levels. I must have seen it at least 10 times. It is brilliant moreso for it's simplicity of style.

Moore is a genuine man of working class roots who never lost his soul and never forgot his roots. In F9/11 he is speaking directly to his base across the globe. I can only think of Bob Marley, Sam Cooke, Lennon and Spike Lee(in recent times) who were also able to communicate with a local and global audience without effort.
Moore should have been the only candidate for Time's Man of the Year. I hope he wins the Oscar - he deserves it and it will be a hell of a statement.
