At the risk of providing ammunition to both sides, there was a perspective in the St. Pete Times today about Unfarenheit 9/11 by Christopher Hitchings. The reason I say both sides, it because he attacks idiot democrat stupidity equally with republican stupidity.
Anyway, for those who ran out of coffee this morning and are looking for a way to get the blood boiling, here is the link to the article ... and also to many other editorials.
They are well done. You go... wow, I wish I would have said that. It's almost like reading this board.
for Unfarenheit
for all sorts of ammo pro and con.
To describe this film as dishonest and demagogic would almost be to promote those terms to the level of respectability. To describe this film as a piece of crap would be to run the risk of a discourse that would never again rise above the excremental. To describe it as an exercise in facile crowd-pleasing would be too obvious. Fahrenheit 9/11 is a sinister exercise in moral frivolity, crudely disguised as an exercise in seriousness. It is also a spectacle of abject political cowardice masking itself as a demonstration of "dissenting" bravery.
