Showing Fahrenheit 911 on TV may be our best hope
When 911 came out, it caused Kerry to take a large lead, which Bush managed to overcome. F911 will supposedly come out on video in October. But from what I have read, Moore has said that it is doubtful that F911 will make it to TV before November 2.

But if it does make it to tv before 11-2, it could break things our way.

1. Someone needs to buy infomercial time...
and just run the tape of bush sitting in the classroom over and over and over so that everyone sees it. Well at least everyone that stays up and watches TV at 2:00 a.m.

5. Well...
A troll, obviously. Besides, it's bush's job to react to attacks against the country, isn't it?

What if Mrs. Jerkovian were being attacked screaming for help within earshot of a cop, but the cop ignored it and continued reading his newspaper? Whom would you blame? The cop reading his newspaper, or someone picked at random in another state?

There's your contrast.

8. Ask yourself this...
Can a Senator give orders to shoot down airplanes?
Can a Senator give orders to the National Guard?
Can a Senator issue orders to the Joint Chiefs?

(By the way, the answer is "no")

The one who's responsibility to give these orders sat on his ass when the information came.

Comparing Bush*s paralyzation with Kerry in the Senate is comparing apples to trampolines.

6. IF F-911 plays on TV before January, it cannot win an Oscar
Which is a stupid reason not to play it on TV in October.

9. We have a hand in this.
It will be our job to see to it that as many people as possible watch this movie. When F9/11 came-out in the theatres, the Chimp's poll numbers stumbled a bit. The number of people who saw it in the theatres will pale in comparison to the number of people who see it in October.. if we spread it around.

I fully expect the Chimp's numbers to drop again after its DVD release.
