Farenheit 9/11

I saw the movie the other night with Jordan, Merhawie, and Brian. I went in knowing that I wouldn't agree with many of the points he was going to make but I also went in hoping to be at least entertained. I was not entertained. There were a couple of funny parts but for the most part I was bored. Anyway, an alarming thing occured afterwards, one of the guys said he found the film to be educational and that he would probably now vote against President Bush because of what he just saw. So I point him here.

UPDATE:
[S]peaking here in my capacity as a polished, sophisticated European as well, it seems to me the laugh here is on the polished, sophisticated Europeans. They think Americans are fat, vulgar, greedy, stupid, ambitious and ignorant and so on. And they‘ve taken as their own, as their representative American, someone who actually embodies all of those qualities. - Christopher Hitchens
