If so, could you please tell me your views on the film?
If not, could you please explain why you hate/dislike this man so much?

Pathway to 9-11? A docudrama with admitted exaggerations such as Sandy Berger saying not to take out bin Laden even though Clinton had a long standing order to capture or kill him?
I acknowledge there are flaws in the documentary of Moore's and that Clinton didn't go after bin Laden hard enough after the Cole bombing, however, do you acknowledge the fact that Bush was given warnings on August 6th, 2001, about terrorists using airplanes as missles against financial and government buldings in the US?

Wow, such in depth views from the conservatives who have seen this movie.
May I call you a liar to your faces? I figured you'd have to say other than one liners about Moore being "fat" and a "geek".
Didn't you get Fox News to prep you for questions like these?

the 9-11 Commision never found any evidence that bin Laden was offered by Sudan. But we all know that conservatives like to ignore the 9-11 commision because it faults the Bush administration, and Lord Bush can't make mistakes, right?

I am not a conservative and I thank you for asking the question.
I, too, wonder why so many hate him, even liberals.
I personally just checked out a bunch of Michael Moore stuff from the library just this week. from the past such as the complete two series of the awful truth and the big one. and other media from him that I haven't seen or reaad yet because I so liked his work in f 9-11, bowling for Columbine, and Roger and Me.
I feel he is a good Christian who seeks to care about the least among us, as brilliant man and movie maker, a man of courage and insight, and I will support any further work he is privileged to give us. I can't wait to see his next movie "sicko".
To those above, better a rich, hypocritic as you call him who is doing good and raising the insight of average people that cares deeply for the poor is far better than being a rich hypocrite like Bush who uses religion to further his selfish goals and who could care less about the least among us.
I took my Republican mom to see it when it came out and she and my brother really liked it.
I have been trying to show it to another brother, who is a republican, and finally succeded in getting him to watch my DVD only 3 weeks ago.
He really enjoyed it, watched apatly with no derisive commenst and thanked me for showing him the movie. While I believe he will remain a Republican, at least he recognizes that Bush and Ohio governor Taft ® - voted worse governor in the nation -are not doing that good unlike the average Republican sheep (like my two rush Linbaugh loving brothers-in-law) who love Bush at all costs and will probably still support him if he came knocking on the door to kill them.
Thank God for Michael Moore who with his insight, sense of humor, and intelligence is able to do such superior work that the Republican controlled media mongrels have to give him a platform cause of all the money his well done films pull in for them.
I have heard that many republican who saw the movie in reality decided not to vote for him, proving not all Republicans are idiots.
The best part of hearing these angry republicans on this post are that nothing they will do will take Michael Moore away and with everything he does, he pulls more people away from the Republican party. The Reps (both media and regular) know he is effective and that is why they hate him so much.

The F911 "documentary" had "flaws"? I saw it. It was hardly a documentary, it was Michael Moore's personal viewpoint and it contained outright lies. It has been deconstructed from top to bottom and found to contain something in excess of 40 factual errors. And, he deliberately misrepresented the views of at least one military officer, for which he is being sued. I don't hate Moore, but I think he practices the worst kind of yellow journalism there is - portraying scenes as real that have been staged in such a way as to advance HIS view of events. He used the same tactics in "Bowling for Columbine" and "Roger & Me". At least "The Path to 9/11" used actors and clearly stated it was a dramatization with fictionalized scenes. In spite of the proven falsehoods in F9/11, Moore still stands behind everything in it as the absolute truth.
By the way: If Clinton had standing orders to capture or kill Bin Laden, why didn't he take him when he was offered up by Sudan?
Another thing: FarenHYPE 9/11 was better.

I have seen it and yes it is slanted but when political views or policy objections are presented, when aren't they slanted. People hate the man becuase finally someone had the guts and the funding to stand up and show us what kind of man is our leader. I dislike the fact that he refered to 9/11 as the title though as it is really getting old and has become a scape goat for mistakes and illegal practices by the government, Not a bad movie over all I guess if your into political slander.

Fatazz Moore and anyone else could make that type of film when you are able to edit, cut and paste as he did in the movie.
I'll use your question: Michael Moore haters have actually seen Fahrenheit 9/11, Conservatives and Republicans Too.
Not difficult at all. I don't necessarily dislike him nearly as much as the people who view this film as fact.

Michael Moore goes around dirty to act like a working person.... Because he looks down on working people and thinks they are dirty.
But, he lives in a mansion.
He is a liar, and a hypocrite.
Just about anyone knows that Fahrenheit 9-11 is a bunch of lies. Unless someone is gullible and ignorant.
Just another conspiracy theory.

I love that people say it is "slanted".
Like Fox News isn't?
Like their newspapers aren't?
Like Bill O'Reilly, Anne Coulter, and the whole plethora of right-wing hate-jocks aren't?
Like GW Bush isn't?
They just can't handle the truth.
I am a Republican sheep: Baaaaaaaa! Baaaaa!

Why would I want to see a bunch of biased Libral information from a guy that lives with his mom and lives off of welfare?
I prefer the facts as they are, not the truth as Michael sees it.

I had seen and read some of his crap. Didn't need to see the 9/11 one to know it was going to be more crap. Besides he looks like a big fat French fag in need of a bath.
