Could you elaborate and explain who exposed Wilson, and what their evidence was?

A typical spiffy comeback, when you have tothing to refute the facts presented to you.

Why do you say "flee from a classroom"? He could have politely excused himself and left and gone about the business of being the President in a time of war instead of reading "My Pet Goat".

The electoral college is nonsense, it is an embarassing anachronism that should be done away with. There is no good moral reason in this day and age why one man or woman shouldn't have a vote that counts the same as anyone elses. This is not now the case. People in Rhode Island or Wyoming for instance have a vote that carries far more weight than the vote of someone in Texas or Florida because of the way the electors are doled out.

Exactly. The kids and their teacher were just going through their lesson and he was listening. I'm sure if he excused himself polietly they would have understud. He didn't have to say what he had to do, since that's not their business, but he could have done something. Since the school was in Florida I'm sure his brother could have easily had it re-arranged.

Yes, I think the priorities of an emergency outweigh the plans that are in place.

The President should have politely excused himself IMO, and the children, when they grow to an older age and fully comprehend what happened on that day, would be understanding of that.

I think it's interesting how Michael Moore warned that Bush/Cheney would try to use terrorism to scare people into voting for Bush and that's exactly what they are doing.

See the movie yet?

Through selective editing Moore tries to make people belive what he wants them to.

The trade journal Screen Daily reported that Iranian and Syrian backed Hezbollah, a terrorist group, is promoting Moore’s film and that Moore’s middle east distributor, Front Row, has accepted the terrorist assistance. That seems a little funny considering what Moore implies in his “documentary”. Why would terrorist be promoting an anti-Bush film? Maybe they think Kerry will be less of a threat to them. After all they had been trainng for years under the Clinton watch and no one noticed.

Through selective editing all of us try to make people believe what we want them to, (especially ourselves), that is nothing new.



As far as a terrorist group being in favor of a film that shows bad things about Bush, so what? That doesn't make the film any less true. How do you think terrorists come to be in the first place? Maybe it has something to do with us trying to control a part of the world that doesn't belong to us. Actually it may be a good thing if people of the Middle East (terrorists included) see the film, then they will see that we have freedom of speech in this country, and that everyone in this country does not believe the same as Bush. They may also see Bush being a friend to the Saudi's (they should like that part). If you have the nerve to go to Michael Moore's website www.michaelmoore.com/warroom/f911notes/ he has references backing up all the charges in his film and they are generally well respected sources.



As far as terrorists training under the Clinton watch and no one noticing, Clinton did send cruise missiles into Afghanistan terrorist cells going after Bin Laden, but was critcized for trying to make people think about something other than his impeachment. (Remember the Wag the Dog scenario)? And Bush was warned repeatedly of the impending threat before 9/11 ever happened, (see 9/11 commission report).
