WHO PAYS THE BILLS FOR "MOVEAMERICAFORWARD.ORG"

A web site has launched a campaign to deter theater owners from showing Michael Moore's film, "Fahrenheit 9-11". A list of theaters currently committed to showing the film is provided along with exhortations to call and demand that the film be dropped. Some theater owners are reporting receiving death threats.

This web site, "www.moveamericaforward.org", is actually an alias for "www.moveamericaforward.com". A DNS check reveals that "www.moveamericaforward.com" is being run by a Public Relations firm out of San Francisco.

Russo Marsh & Rogers is a political public relations firm with strong ties to the GOP. Sal Russo, a principle in Russo Marsh & Rogers, served as advisor for the "Recall Grey Davis" campaign.

So, I guess we know just who is behind the campaign of threats and harassment against theaters showing Moore's film!

That movie is pure sedition and lies. It shouldn't be illegal for it to be shown but it should be billed as pure fantasy because that's what it is.

Michael Moore is a disgrace to his country, the film industry, the state of California, his family, and his dog. He's not good enought to spit on.

Bush Admirer… like you lover Bush , NOBODY believe you except YOURSELF … and like Bush you are not just a disgrace to this country, you are a disgrace to the entire human being.

The success of Michael Moore is not based on the fact that he's a saint, or an expert who's right about everything; it's based on the fact that he makes powerful, arrogant people the object of ridicule. He asks them difficult questions, and they stammer and stutter and turn red, and then they either start saying crazy things, or they run away and hide. Suddenly the spell is broken, and they look ridiculous. Their image is one of power and self-control and self-confidence; when that image goes, it's very hard to get it back.

One way to deal with Republican liars, accordingly, is not to correct them imperiously with facts and figures and reams of data (God, there are tons!!!) . It's to make them repeat and elaborate on their lies, and let them dig their own graves with their mouths, in front of God and everybody. Until they see that people are laughing at them, and run away, as Ari Fleischer did at a recent press conference.

Personally I refuse to give a penny to any politician, much less hundreds of thousands of dollars that is the going rate for bribery these days, I have about as little influence on my government as the average Iraqi had on Hussein or the average Syrian has on its dictatorship.

BA , like BUSH you are a TOTAL FRAUD.

It's always been 'pure sedition' when you speak truth to arrogant, over reaching power.
I view the idea as pure Americanism.

You haven't even SEEN the movie yet, you anti-American MORON.

I've read detailed reviews of that fantasy movie and have a good fix on Michael Moore, propaganda dispenser extraordinaire and an anti-American of the first order.

Locking him up in Guantanamo with the other anti-American terrorists would seem the next logical step for Mr. Moore.

He's been producing a mountain of horseshit. He's just another wacko conspiracy theorist like David Icke or Noam Chimpsky. Bunch of cynical pamphleteers making a mint out of gullible young college students.

Plus ca change....

My real name is Josiah Hagen.

I get paid by the US government to disrupt this site.

Too bad I'm not any good at it.

bushblower: "I've read detailed reviews"

translation: "I haven't seen it so I don't know what the fuck I am talking about but why should that stop me I am republican so I will just say what I am programmed to say"

...bushblower, you're pathetic....
