The joys of movie editing to meet your agenda

Complete and utter garbage. Now I am not sticking up for Bush by any means, the man has proven on more than one occasion that he is not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but Michael Moore is one of the most biased movie makers ever. He can take anything that you say or do and completely make it either seem out of context, or pin you as the bad guy, and this is the benefit of film editing. You see what he wants you to see, and unfortunatley because this movie comes from a man that is so far left wing that it makes it impossible to tell how much research actually went into his claims other than by digging through each of the pieces that he used and trying to find the whole story yourself.
While I thought Bowling for Columbine was a decent movie, (it being the first Moore movie I have ever seen) I thought he had some good points, but many of his film cuts made me hesitate to entirely believe him. Fahrenheit 911 is no different, everything he says you have to take with a grain of salt.. or in some cases the entire shaker because he gives you only the details he wants you to see, and he will leave the rest in hopes that you never try to look it up yourself.
How he keeps making movies is beyond me, but I wouldn't trust that guy as far as I can toss a piano, and let me tell you its not that far.
