Democrats don't hate Bush, we just realize that an alcohol and drug addict with limited intellectual capabilities, delusions of grandeur, and an inability to separate fact from fiction isn't the best guy to be at the country's helm right now. Once he is out of office we will forget all about him (unlike the republicans, who still foam at the mouth whenever Bill Clinton's name is mentioned).

Moore was successful long before Bush became President. He is a good businessman. It's true that in F911 he doesn't really reveal anything earth shattering. He does do a nice job of piecing things together that are already in the public domain. Perhaps he plays loose with the facts as well with crafty editing. It's not like Bush doesn't deserve close scrutiny for his actions pre and post 9/11. It (9/11) will go down in history as one of the most memorable events in American history, Moore contributes to the documentation of the causes and effects of 9/11. One criticism I have of Moore is that he's good at critiquing a problem, but not good at offering solutions to the problem that he critiques. He could have used F911 as a venue to promote alternatives to the petrol economy, to educate people about them, to raise awareness, to build a movement, but he didn't. He was silent on providing answers, which makes me suspect he's really more in it for the profit and noteriety than for a real desire to change our society for the better.
