Fahrenheit 9/11 On Bush Lies TV
With donations of $30 or more at http://bushlies2.us , you can both get the DVD of Fahrenheit 9/11 shipped to your door (release date 10/5) AND get access to an online viewing of the movie in an ongoing online house party (ongoing as I type). The donations will be used to pay for the price of your copy of the DVD. The remainder will be split between bandwidth costs associated with keeping up a site with streaming video and donations to the Kerry Campaign, DNC and other organizations in the effort to defeat Bush. Higher donation amounts also recieve other gifts (like Fahrenheit 9/11 Reader, Bush Family Fortunes DVD and others). Get your copy now and have your own house parties over the next few weeks before the election. Remember, in Ohio a group of undecided voters were polled before seeing the movie, then again right after. After seeing the film, bush*s approval rating dropped 21 POINTS!! Whether through my site, or on Amazon (where I will be ordering from), everyone NEEDS this video to show to their undecided (for whatever reason) friends and relatives who have refused to spend the money to go see it in the theater.

3. What movies will you be encoding at 265k
http://bushlies2.us/f911donations.html
You say:
"I will encode a new movie at 256k (instead of the lower quality 28k) for the site"

4. For donations under $30...
I will encode another film that is on the site at the higher bit rate...if the person who donates has a preference, they can suggest it in the comment box when donating...if not, I will just pick one... the next one I will probably do this for, if my choice, is Uncovered: The Whole Truth About the Iraq War...but I have many others...the 20 listed on the site are only some of what I have, plus more are on the way...

I am also always open to suggestions...regarding content or otherwise...

11. Sure I can
I have for some time

And the veiwing of this movie is only for those who purchse a copy. Mr. Moore is inviting people to buy his DVD and hold house parties where tens of people watch it for free...he doesnt care about the money...anyone in this film for the money is satified WELL beyond their wildest dreams. It is about distribution now. Mr Moore himself said that he wants as many Americans as possible to view this movie. He has also said in the past he doesnt care if people copy and pass out his movie. Im not even doing this. People are paying for the DVD in advanced, and given the opportunity to view what they paid for in the meantime while they wait for the shipment.

I have tried constantly for some time now (I posted an earlier thread about this, hopeing someone close to Mr Moores circles would read it) to reach Mr Moore to see what he thought of the idea. I have emailed every day for the past 2 weeks, but they are all returned because of a full mailbox...not supriseng, but hey, I tried.

13. btw, as for Uncovered and others...
Robert Greenfeild said on AAR that he wants his movies shown in any way shape or form possible. As for news broadcasts, they are all involving this election, and as far as I am concerned, the public domain. If this is not the case, I will challenge it, as each one is a vital record of this years important presidential election, and The People have the right to see them.
After over 6 months online, my site has never been confronted by the copyright owners of any video on my site. If they were to do so, and show they are the rightful copyright holders that are able to make that decision, I would of course take the video down.
