How does it compare to Triumph of the Will? Moore isn't the first to do feature-length films as propaganda.



I don't know. I never saw that one. Of course Moore isn't the first to do this type of propaganda. It can be argued that many films are attempts at this, although some are not as conspicuous as this one. But some are.

Depends on who is doing the disputing. He never had much of a reputation of being interested in the oil business - that's a family thing, and he was more-or-less a figurehead trotted out as ambassador to impress guests.



W never had much of a reputation of being interested in any business, really.

Family or not, just the facts that are known, without any ideological spin, deserve attention. I'm talking about the entire family and their dealings with the Saudi's.

I don't think there is anything really sinister about it, beyond making alot of money.

I would like some more light shed on the whole thing though. And from someone who is not so biased as Moore. For that matter I don't want Bush's spin either. I would just prefer some truth.

It's not likely I'll get it.


Ooops, never mind. Wrong thread.
