Michael Moore: Jeb Bush
built 643 days ago
“For five and a half years, the Bush administration has ignored and neglected the heroes of the 9/11 community,” Moore said in the letter, which he posted on the liberal Web site Daily Kos. “These heroic first responders have been left to fend for themselves, without coverage and without care.”
Laced with Moore’s irreverent humor, “Fahrenheit 9/11” uses snippets from Bush’s clumsy speeches for some of its funniest moments. Moore ... weaves in pop tunes for ironic laughs and pulls some amusing stunts, such as reading the Patriot Act through an ice cream truck’s loudspeaker outside Congress for lawmakers who supposedly voted on the bill without reading it.

With the 2004 election over, Moore continues to collect information on the war in Iraq and the Bush administration in addition to his film projects. On several occasions during 2007, he has called for Al Gore to run for President.
MOORE Moore recaps the photo-finish 2000 presidential election, reiterating opponents’ gripes that Bush stole the election from Al Gore. The film then characterizes Bush as a slacker president more interested in his next vacation than national security when the Sept. 11 attacks came.

Moore's acceptance speech at the 2003 Academy Awards included a now-famous tirade against George W. Bush, whom Moore called a "fictitious president"... The title Fahrenheit 9/11 is a play on Fahrenheit 451, the futuristic novel by Ray Bradbury in which books are burned at that temperature.

No one will ever accuse the angry Moore of subtlety or finesse. He attacks George W. and his White House cronies with a cinematographic shovel. Moore's Bush comes out looking stupid, inert and fuddled.
