“Maker of Shredmaster 3000 - Official Document Shredder of the Bush Administration”

These days, everyone has a conspiracy theory. Some are just more elaborate and correct than others. Michael Moore’s just happens to be the most widely distributed. And he’s probably right, too.

Moore’s plotumentary is mainly focused upon the corruption and tragedy of the Iraq war, and how money is the “true” cause. Chronologically, the film follows H-Dubya’s and Dubya’s business connections in Texas, and how once the election was won, it was a Bush-Saudi conglomerate that planned/plans to take advantage of other strategic Middle Eastern nations. Moore even explores the United States’ connection to the wealthy bin Laden family, but stops short of accusations. By virtue of his own writing and narration, Moore’s discussions are always left open-ended, forcing the audience to make quick decisions skewed by his presentational skills.

Instead of using statistics and stunts, as he did in Bowling For Columbine, Moore uses narrative and newsbites to lead the audience. This is why his film is more socially effective than any of his others. In the age of reality tv and instant information, the news photos and videos Moore splices in this film provide the audience with a seemingly “official” appeal. The clips serve as a vague snapshot; to jog memories and general assumptions about what we all think we remember. But, just like in Bowling For Columbine, Moore’s editing determines the relevance of most of what’s shown, sacrificing unbiased, actual context. If someone were to pay you $100,000 for a project to take a bunch of news clips and edit them so they showed “an anti-bush bias”, i doubt any of us would have much difficulty, either.

On one hand, most people these days have a well-formed opinion about the Bush administration, but those opinions usually end up on a kitchen table. This is one of the only nationally important opinions about the Bush Administration that America has had in the last four years, so it’s refreshing to see what influence it has. Moore’s point is that as long as people get a glimpse of how the Bush admin seems to conduct its business behind closed doors, and how it distracts the public from many of the things it does, Bush won’t be re-elected. And since this is my site (film) and can express my opinion too, I hope this film gives Dubya’s gang a taste of their own medicine and confuses enough Americans to follow along and re-defeat them.

Iranian woman gives birth to frog

and she’s going to keep him. while her family urged her to put the frog/child up for adoption, Rita knew they were inseparable from the moment they laid eyes on each other. she imagined his first steps, his first teeball game, and it filled her with joy. no matter how poisonous, amphibian, or vain the frog was, Rita made up her mind to love him unconditionally. this is what she had been waiting for all of her life.

Hippie Woman Scales O’Hare Security Fence

you can keep the terrorists, pedophiles, and tennesseans out with airport fences, but you can’t keep wacked-out hippies away. in typical hippie behavior, some chick was “doing doughnuts”, smoking something, then scaled a 10-foot razor wire fence. then she took a baggage loader on a joyride and unintentionally ridiculed the entire homeland security effort. oh, and by the way, the administration arranged 9/11, so there aren’t even really any terrorists.

Mobiles Phones May Damage Sperm

new and improved! cellphone contraceptives! no, but if this was dateline nbc, i wouldn’t tell you i was kidding. but anyway, sensationalist warnings like these are always quality. they’re usually, like this one, based on only one cause/effect, and are about as helpful in predicting the world series winner as a team’s batting average in april. the study would be far more interesting if instead of reporting lower sperm counts, they reported mutant sperm counts. ho, the possibilities.
