Talkin' 'Bout My 9-11

It's time to chat about what is going to be a HUGE factor in public perception this year. Fahrenheit 9-11

But first, I cannot let another UNSIGNED ARTICLE in today's Amarillo Globe News go by. . .

Guys . . . the families who are suing are only trying to get answers from the Bush Thugs about what happened to their loved ones on 9-11. They have been consistently stonewalled and lied to. They want answers they cannot get from their local media like, say . . . the Amarillo "See no Evil, Hear no Evil, Speak no Evil" (When it comes to Republicans) Globe News who won't EVER ask a difficult question.

Back to Fahrenheit 9-11:
This documentary is important for three reasons.
1. Anyone who sees it will be walking out saying to themselves, "Why haven't I seen or been told this before?"
2. A national dialog about where we are as a country will finally ensue, without all that "If you ask any questions, you're with the terra'ists" crap from the right.
2. The Republicans are scared shi**ess of this movie. Good enough reason for me!
______________________________________________
Be prepared to see the following spewed out by ALL media in the runup to the opening.
-It's just propaganda.
-It's mean spirited.
-It's a personal attack.
etc., etc., etc., . . .

Not once will the right ever take on the facts. THEY CAN'T.

Like Harry Truman once said when someone told him to give 'em hell, "I will just tell the truth and it will feel like hell!"

Gonna feel like hell for the right when this movie comes out.
