A lot of people need to come back to the middle. Either extreme side of the pendulum is bad.
The same people that have a hissy fit if Bush farts the wrong way are the same people that are going to look the other way no matter what Kerry does. That is bad.
My point being was that most the 911 planning was on Clintons watch (as well as a variety of other terrorist attacks). And Moores premise is that because the Bushes are close to the Saudis from the oil industry, that this somehow clouded the administrations judgement in some way.

Good points but it wasn't the Clintons that funded Bin Laden or his cronies it was the Bush family and their taskmasters. As it looks now, Bin Laden and his henchmen were following orders when the first WTC attack occured. To put him outta office. Didn't work.
This is all an issue of chickens coming home to roost.
Moore's film will at a minimum open up some heated debates and looks at how dumb and greedy we can be.
Bush will still win by a landslide because the election is fixed, the cops and military, the pharmaceutical and oil companies, the weapons manufacturers and insurance companies are all making money hand over fist. The pension funds and unions all have their money in these stocks and aren't about to loose them even if they're headed for hell in a handbasket.
The U.S. is too iliterate, racist, sexist, to keep it's head above water without the military-industrial complex running shit. Exactly what Presidents Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy feared and warned about. They knew! Now look at us. In shit so deep we'd have to stand on Satan's head just to get a glimpse of how deep we're in.
IF we get through this summer alive and whole, make it past the election and through the winter we'll be okay. That's a long haul but it would be an indicator that we'd be headed on the road to recovery. But it'll take all of us to stand up and have the balls to put a stop to the right and left wing insanities.
