ACTION ALERT - Email MoveAmericaFoward to THANK them
hey guys -

do what i just did, and send the kind folks at www.moveamericaforward.org a note of thanks for allowing us to utilize their movie theatre contact list (http://www.moveamericaforward.org/MichaelMoore/)to send theatres a note of THANKS for showing FAHRENHEIT 9/11.

remind them of free speech, and remind them that when millions of americans see this movie, they'll vote bush out of office.

so go on, do it, you'll feel better after you do.

their email is ---> info@MoveAmericaForward.org

and if you want to call instead ---> Telephone: (916) 441-6197


and for your viewing pleasure, here're the lovely people out to silence free speech.

1. I already did.
I told them what sneaky little devils they were to secretly help out Michael Moore.

Here's what I sent:


Thank you for promoting "Farenheit 9/11" and thank you for making more people aware of the film! More and more people now know about the movie, which they are now more interested in seeing because of your desire to stop Americans from seeing! You truly have done Michael Moore a service and you have made more people want to see the film!

THANK YOU!

11. Reminds me of...
the Passion of 'christ we've had enough'.
Like Mel or not, Abe Foxman and his type actually Promoted the movie. These fools are doing the same - bringing forward the silenced majority to stand firmer.

5. Just another "grass roots" (astroturf) group of conservative white men
These people wouldn't know grass roots if it came up and scratched them in the ass.

6. SUBJ; Thank YOU for your PATRIOTIC work
Dead MoveAmericaForward,
Thanks to your list of theaters showing Michael Moore's new film, I was able to send a letter out to each and every one of them telling them exactly how I felt about them allowing this film to be shown in their theaters. I'm so glad you appreciate the first amendment, and while I was exercising my free speech and loving every minute of it, not only did I THANK these theaters for not being silenced by a group of second-rate hacks who hate a film they've never seen, I also sent 25 dollars to the John Kerry campaign so that, with all luck we will remove Bush and his "Screw America First" crowd and replace them with Kerry and his "Put America First" crowd.
My name is Nich, I love my nation, and I approved this message.

10. Yes!
Send the message!

Let them know - we're not the milk toast media. We're the constituency of this country.

And before we allow any "Front" for the GOP to censor what I PAY to watch, they'll have to pry my F-9/11 DVD...

From my cold, dead hands...

Go ahead GOP, piss some more citizens off.

14. My message
Thank you very much for giving me the list of theaters planning to show Farenheit 9/11 on your website. It allowed me to thank each and every one of them for refusing to bow down to the wishes of a few, cranky right-wing fringe nuts that are willing to ignore every founding principle of this country through censorship.
Also, thank you for inspiring me to work harder to defeat George W. Bush and therefore better serve the interests of this country.
Thank you and God Bless America.

12. Here's what I just sent....
Thank you for all the publicity and attention you have given to Michael Moore and his documentary Fahrenheit 9-11.It's wonderful for you to show that freedom of speech still exists in this country,even though Bu$h has tried his best to stop it. Freedom of speech is what is so great about America. Just look at the BILLIONS of tax payer dollars that Bu$h is spending in Iraq to bring democracy and freedom of speech to the Iraqis.You all need to go see this movie,after all,I went to see "The Passion Of The Christ" and I'm not dead yet.....so get your tickets and pick up a few for your friends,neighbors and relatives and go see it. Be exposed to the truth for a change instead of all this Rush Limbaugh propaganda. Believe me,if you see what bu$h and his gang of thugs are really all about,you'll be running to the nearest Kerry campaign head quarters begging for Kerry yard signs,flyers,buttons and volunteering to man the phones for him. Have a great day! ~~~Peace~~~

13. My letter to those bastards
Several Democratic organizations have utilized your list to contact all these Theater's to ask them to play the Moore film. Censorship is about the most un-American, unpatriotic thing any organization can do. This is the United States not Iraq you insane fools.

"This I believe:
That the free, exploring mind of the individual human is the most valuable thing in the world.

And this I would fight for:
The freedom of the mind to take any direction it wishes, undirected.

And this I must fight against:
Any idea, religion, or government which limits or destroys the individual."
John Steinbeck

15. I e-mailed
them and thanked them for all the free publicity they were giving the film. Thanks to them this film will be an even bigger box office success.

Nothing like an attack on First Amendment rights to bring out people who will see the film just out of curiosity.

They are their own worst enemies. :crazy:

16. Here's what I sent to the Freeper group and AMC Theaters
To: MoveAmericaForward.org

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank your
wonderful organization for promoting "Farenheit 9/11"
and to thank you for making more people aware of the
film! More and more people now know about the movie
because of your actions and because of the free
publicity brought to the film through your actions.
They are now more interested in seeing this Cannes
Film Festival winner because of your desire to stop
Americans from seeing it! You truly have done Michael
Moore and America a heroic service and you have made
more people want to see the film!

THANK YOU and may GOD Bless you all and keep you safe.

To: Several in management at AMC Theaters here in my hometown in Kansas City

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank your
wonderful organization for showing "Farenheit 9/11"

With each passing day, more and more Americans are
interested in seeing this Cannes Film Festival winner.

You truly have done America a heroic service by not
bending to the will of the Propagandists and you have
made it possible for more people to see the film!

THANK YOU and may GOD Bless you all and keep you safe.

20. My letter.
Edited on Sat Jun-19-04 06:09 PM by mzmolly
Dear Sir/Madam,

I presume this name is a play on MoveOn.org? Nice try. Your organization obviously want's to Move America Backward.

Thanks for assembling the list of theatre owners to thank for showing the winner of the Cannes Film Festival. I do hope you didn't waste too much time/money trying to censor a film for adults?

You may be interested in learning that *thanks to your list* theatre owners/managers are receiving emails 150-1 in FAVOR of showing F911.

Thanks for the free publicity for this remarkable film.
