Not One Rightwinger Wants $10,000 from Michael Moore For Proving ANything In His Film Is A Lie?

From Time Magazine:

Fahrenheit 9/11 may also be branded as the film that made an overblown case against the Bush team. Certainly defenders of the Iraq war are already casting it that way. Limbaugh calls it "a pack of lies." In the online publication Slate, Christopher Hitchens wrote that it was "a sinister exercise in moral frivolity, crudely disguised as an exercise in seriousness." Even liberal Washington Post columnist Richard Cohen, an opponent of the war, told his readers that he "recoiled from Moore's methodology." To mount fast responses to critics like those, Moore has organized a "war room" overseen by former Clinton White House aides Chris Lehane and Mark Fabiani. He also hired the former chief of fact checking at the New Yorker magazine to comb the film for inaccuracies. "There's lots of disagreement with my analysis of these facts or my opinion based on the facts. But," he insists, "there is not a single factual error in the movie. I'm thinking of offering a $ 10,000 reward for anyone that can find a single fact that's wrong."

* Oops, looks like Limbaugh, Hannity and the rest are wrong. There are no lies in F-9-11, or else Moore would be out a lot of $10,000 checks. So far no takers.

Also no takers of the $15,000 in rewards to anyone who can prove GW showed up for Guard duty in Alabama.
