I saw Michael Moore's movie "Fahrenheit 9/11" in Davenport, Iowa. I had to drive 70 miles to see it as I live in a community which has a newspaper called the Bureau County Republican. So I doubt if it will be shown in my area. But it should be.

The movie was well worth the drive. Michael Moore's movie contains the proof that our news media has deliberately kept us from seeing.  Things I always suspected but did not have the evidence to prove. He doesn't just tell it he shows it. So before you knock the movie go see it. There are those who refuse to see this film I think because they are afraid it will prove them wrong.

They will have to admit that the Bush administration has not been acting in the peoples best interests.

There was over 500 people in the matinee showing at the theatre and after the movie was over the audience applauded wildly. As if saying thank you for  having the guts to show us the truth.
 

I have a friend who expressed his opinion of Bush on a Kerry web site. He didn't say anything threatening. He just said he thought Bush was a jerk. Two weeks later he was visited by both the FBI and the local sheriff. So evidently our government does monitor these sights. He was questioned and his computer was confiscated. The charge they came up with was money laundering. They had no proof. A trumped up charge that was never pursued. They just came to scare him and they still have not returned his computer back to him. They said they are keeping it now so he has hired an attorney to get it back. His attorney said that he has never seen anything like this in his lifetime. So much for our freedom of speech. We have traded our rights in exchange for a sense of false security.

This could never have happened before the changes the Bush Administration has made to our constitution through the Patriot Act which was made into law and says that your home can be invaded and things taken without a search warrant.  There is nothing Patriotic about this Act which was made law and is due to expire in December. Bush said it would only be temporary but now wants to make it permanent.  Are you aware that George W. Bush took an oath of office when he became President which promises to preserve and protect our Constitution? The Patriot Act does the exact opposite, it takes away our rights. I guess that he forgot what he promised.

Soon Patriot Act #2 is coming. This one says that if you are considered a terrorist by the Bush administrations definition that even a natural born citizen can lose his citizenship and you could be placed in a prison somewhere with no due process of law. No lawyer and no jury trial. You could just vanish forever.  It's a good way to silence someone who doesn't agree with what is going on in this country isn't it? This a clear violation of our Constitution. If you don't believe me then look it up yourself!

Don't tell me that it's not happening,  the proof is right before your eyes. This is what our country is coming to and why we need a change in leadership.
