Have you found any lies in Moore's film? I have seen it and read many reviews but have yet to see anyone prove that there are ANY lies or major mis-statements in the film. In fact it holds up very well. Very factual.

It may insinuate certain things that aren't necessarily true, but it doesn't state anything that is not true. At least nothing I have found yet. Clearly Moore did his homework on this one. Also half the film is about the deep personal feelings of ordinary patriotic people. None of that was faked in any way.

BTW: Moore saying most Americans are ignorant about what's really going on in the world is correct. One of the problems is that 29% of Republicans say they get their "news" from rightwing talk radio propaganda. That ain't news and it isn't reliable information. It also includes almost no information about the real world outside the US. Therefore, those people are certainly ignorant.

Also more than 40% still believe Saddam was behind 9-11. More ignorance. Apparewntly, ignorance is deliberate on the part of the rightwing. They can only win if people are kept in the dark? Well Moore shines a lot of light on that darkness. He has really woken people up. Kudos to Moore.
