GOP meme - F911 compared to PT911
They are trying to minimize the truth of F911 by saying their false documentary PT911 is the same.
They are saying on the news that the GOP took slings and arrows with F911 and it did not say it was a dramatization

This is how they are - they take truth and twist it - this is like a the dsyfunctional family and this is the sicko and it is working for them so they keep it up - and it is reported on news channels this way - when you hear it said on multiple places - it is as if some one sent out a memo

1. People had to PAY to see F911, and had made up their minds before
going to see the film. F911 wasn't blast into every home in the US on the anniversary of 911 and deemed "based on the 911 report." F911 did not work with Scholastic to poison our school children with revisionist history lessons.

2. It's like comparing apples to oranges....

The difference being Mr. Moore did not hire actors and put words in their mouths and charged people to see it - ABC's was on public TV and words were put into mouths, horrible, disgusting things were said. I'm curious, did anyone outright ask any of the GOP talking heads why they were so anxious to get this POS on the air? It would have floored many if an honest answer was given: i.e. - We want to shift all the blame on the Democrats so we are smelling like roses for the November elections.....in an alternate universe perhaps.

4. They take the truth and twist it
and no one holds the msm accountable for letting their twisted truth stand as fact.

7. Both are full of lies

8. Biggest difference:
One of those movies claimed to be an unbiased historical docudrama "based on the 9/11 commission report." The other made no such claim of being unbiased. No effort has ever been made to hide Michael Moore's politics.
