Celsius 41.11: A Rebuttal to Michael Moore
deezl writes "Michael Moore released a controversial movie revealing 'facts' about the Bush Presidency. A new rebuttal has just been released called Celsius 41.11. I would think that time sensitive political commentaries would be available for download to ensure the widest possible distribution base. If documentary makers are so interested in getting their message out and arguments across, why not encourage free BitTorrent type distribution for their movies?"
Having not particularly been impressed, well with any of Moore's movies, and having seen this. I'm filled with new found respect for Moore. They manage to make the tubby hack look, well pretty subtle and tactful. I'm not sure how they pulled that off....
I like how they equate even rudimentary social programs with out of control totalitarianism.
I mean I was a *little* tired of the latest excuse for liberating Iraq, "What you though Hussein was a nice person, well why do *you* live with him?" But seriously, they're making the obvious response, as grim and undignified as it is, look ever more appropriate.
What makes you think he even knows what bitorrent is?
He was actually sending free copies of his DVD to any serviceperson abroad IIRC so he didnt "do nothing".
Bush and Blair ate my sig!
911 in Plain Sight has an interesting DVD (scroll down to [Movies - DVD-R] 911 In Plane Site ,excelent new docu...)
And here is a good commentary & rebuttal

Or are you that ignorant and arrogant to assume that yours won't?
Why?

They must be forced to use exceptionally accurate thermometers in hospitals in the rest of the world. Who would have guessed that they must measure down to 1/100th of a degree! It just makes it clear to me that metric is the wrong way to go.
On an unrelated note, I have to ask why they had so many photos of planes flying into buildings, women in burkas, and the attack on the USS Cole. But all of the voiceover was eerily disconnected from the images. They kept talking about Iraq, while showing images from an unrelated war a half a world away in Afghanistan.
What's the deal with that? Why would anyone want to relate Afghanistan and Iraq?
Fact about Fahrenheit 9/11: It has been extraordinarily successful, grossing a fifth of a billion dollars on a $6 million investment.

Bush: Borrowing money to try to make his administration look good. Are you getting some of the $?
Not to be a dick, but us smarter Conservatives know that Bossie is a whackjob. He's right up there with Ann Coultier or however you spell her french name. Completely batshit nuts. He's one of our MANY Moores. He's like that strange uncle that nobody wants to admit is actual family.
For every annoying gentoo user, are three even more annoying anti-gentoo crybabies. Take Yosh from #Gimp for example.

I suppose if I were making inflammatory political statements (right-wing, left-wing, or other-wing), I'd use anonymizers, too. But don't ICANN rules require legitimate contact info for domain registration?
Just curious...
