Is it too early in the morning for some RW trash?
Okay, I admit - I clicked on Drudge's site. Always like to see what Rove and Gillespie's fax o' the day consists of, and catch up with the latest GOP talking points.

Well, I was greeted with a banner ad for what looks to be a really creepy piece of propaganda. I know I'll get flamed for bringing this awful piece of shit to DU, but I just had to share it, since we all like to know what we're up against from the dark side.

Guess what? It's yet another Michael Moore hit piece. I have to say, Moore must be doing something right to piss off these wingnuts so much. I salute you, Mr. Moore! Give 'em hell!

In the meantime, enjoy this promo from the nasties at Citizens United, and their new 'movie' called (get this) "Celsius 41.11". :puke:

Warning: this is pretty gory, offensive and violent. And it's RW bullshit. Click on it at your own peril.

1. silly
Hmm... the best they can do is get people mad about the opinions of random people protesting on some corner?

Sure stands up against 2 hours of footage OF ACTUAL REPUBLICANS IN POWER that Moore gave us.

3. Talk about pathetic
Edited on Mon Sep-20-04 11:30 AM by theexpat
Comments from random people, a sound byte from Moore taken utterly and completely out of context. I think this is a very tasteless and feeble attempt to cast doubt on fahrenheit 9/11. Yet another example of the desperation of the repukes. The scene with the protesters looked faked as well. Some of the phrases on the signs used proportional spacing!

4. "The lies of Michael Moore"? Give me a break.
They didn't even debunk a single MM statement in the trailer. Not exactly the kind of teaser that a real film co. would produce.

They even went so far as to show Flight 175 hitting the South Tower in the trailer! They have no shame, and yes, it is too early for this kind of trash.

5. Here's some really good stuff I just got this morning...
Where do these nuts find this stuff??!??



This guy is THE LAST liberal I would want in office.

On 18 Feb. 1966 John Kerry signed a 6 year enlistment contract with the Navy (plus a 6-month extension during wartime). On 18 Feb. 1966 John Kerry also signed an Officer Candidate contract for 6 years -- 5 years of ACTIVE duty & ACTIVE Naval Reserves, and 1 year of inactive standby reserves (See items #4 & $5). Because John Kerry was discharged from TOTAL ACTIVE DUTY of only 3 years and 18 days on 3 Jan. 1970, he was then required to attend 48 drills per year, and not more than 17 days active duty for training. Kerry was also subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Additionally, Kerry, as a commissioned officer, was prohibited from making adverse statements against his chain of command or statements against his country, especially during time of war. It is also interesting to note that Kerry did not obtain an honorable discharge until Mar. 12, 2001 even though his service obligation should have ended July 1, 1972.

Lt. John Kerry's letter of 21 Nov. 1969 asking for an early release from active US Navy duty falsely states "My current regular period of obligated service would be completed in December of this year."

On Jan. 3, 1970 Lt. John Kerry was transferred to the Naval Reserve Manpower Center in Bainridge, Maryland.. Where are Kerry's Performance Records for 2 years of obligated Ready Reserve, the 48 drills per year required and his not more than 17 days of active duty per year training while Kerry was in the Ready Reserves? Have these records been released? Has anyone ever talked to Kerry's Commanding Officer at the Naval Reserve Center where Kerry drilled?

On 1 July 1972 Lt. John Kerry was transferred to Standby Reserve Inactive.

On 16 February 1978 Lt. John Kerry was discharged from US Naval Reserve.

Below are some of the crimes Lt. Kerry USNR committed as a Ready Reservist, while he was acting as a leader of Vietnam Veterans Against the War:

1. Lt. Kerry attended many rallies where the Vietcong flag was displayed while our flag was desecrated, defiled, and mocked, thereby giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

2. Lt. Kerry was involved in a meeting that voted on assassinating members of the US Senate.

3. Lt. Kerry lied under oath against fellow soldiers before the US Senate about crimes committed in Vietnam.

4. Lt. Kerry professed to being a war criminal on national television, and condemned the military and the USA.

5. Lt Kerry met with NVA and Vietcong communist leaders in Paris, in direct violation of the UCMJ and the U.S. Constitution.

Lt. Kerry by his own words & actions violated the UCMJ and the U.S.Code while serving as a Navy officer. Lt. Kerry stands in violation of Article 3, Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution. Lt. Kerry's 1970 meeting with NVA Communists in Paris is in direct violation of the UCMJ's Article 104 part 904, and U.S Code 18 U.S.C. 953. That meeting, and Kerry's subsequent support of the communists while leading mass protests against our military in the year that followed, also place him in direct violation of our Constitution's Article 3, Section 3, which defines treason as "giving aid and comfort" to the enemy in time of warfare.

The Constitution's Fourteenth Amendment, Section 3, states, "No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President having previously taken an oath to support the Constitution of the United States, engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof." ...........................................end..............

6. Even more than "Where do they find this stuff?"
I'm curious as to why you would post it here. This type of shit belongs at Free Republic, Lucianne.com, or any number of the vast array of myopic little right-wing circle jerks.
