4. It was on NBC News [sic] last night
and consisted of pudgy Lisa Myers yapping about what a pack of lies it is. The only "lie" anybody has found is a tame Congressman who said his statement was cut to eliminate his telling Moore he already had a nephew on the way to Afghanistan, a he said/he said kinda thing.

Lisa Myers is a fat whore for Bushco. It's not worth watching, unless you're interested in seeing how the right will craft its lies about Moore's film.

Personally, I think that tame Congressman would have been cut completely out of the film had his statement contained what he said it did. I have a feeling it's one of those "what I should have told him" things that got translated into "what I did tell him."

So far, it's the only "lie" they've actually found.

12. He issued a statement saying the transcripts on Moore's website are
totally correct. It was played on Stephinopolis's(sp) show last Sunday.

7. WOW they didn't successfully discredit SHIT
they had the thing about the senator whose comment about his nephew going into active duty being deleted. I'm not sure why MM would have used him since obviously he would come out later to say what he actually had said.

she said the 9-11 commision determined that nobody was allowed to leave the country "that the FBI wanted to interview" HAHAHA....give me a break

is that all you got Lisa Myers? Bring it on!

11. Michaell Moore wasn't talking nephews
he was talking sons and daughters. What a total load. The movie is outstanding and doesn't make any leaps in logic that I can see. Its pretty telling when you have footage of corporate execs talking about how much money is going to be made on the war in Iraq (government money). How can you argue with that? She probably hasn't even seen it.

If we had any repectable journalists left they might actually look into the allegations and ask the tough questions. All the freepers can do is criticize Michael Moore, they rarely try and refute the facts.

8. "NBC truth squad" is an oxymoron.

10. Yeah, the same penetrating gaze . . .
Is this the same NBC that so doggedly investigated Stupidhead's State of the Whatever Speech, and Powell's Prevaricating Power Point Presentation at the UN?

Michael Moore can rest easy. These hamsters couldn't find a fart in a cheese factory.
