'Fahrenheit 9/11' Omissions

From the AP:

While the White House and the Republican National Committee have taken an official "no comment" approach to Michael Moore and his new anti-Bush documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11," [which opens June 25,] some conservatives have mobilized a letter-writing campaign and crafted ads that slam the film and its maker.

Among the astonishing revelations and distortions:

1. Michael Moore is seen eating a salad while interviewing a congressman. It turns out to have been 4 cheeseburgers, cleverly positioned offscreen.


2. When Charlton Heston talks about the "ethnic thing" being the source of violence in America, he of course is referring to the pending simian takeover of the planet.


3. 911°F would actually be 488°C, not 474°C. (Moore subtracted 32 after dividing by 1.8, not the other way around. I hate it when that happens.)


4. Moore's beard disappears and reappears throughout the film, revealing both deceptive continuity and his flip-flopping stance regarding facial hair. (Groups are also delving deeper into the usage of his cap and glasses.)


5. In Bowling for Columbine, Moore portrays Dick Clark as a callous asshole. In Fahrenheit 9/11, Moore portrays Dick Clarke as a tragic hero trapped in government bureaucracy - thereby revealing Moore's latent hypocrisy toward his subjects.


6. The film is distributed by Canadian Lion's Gate Films, another step in Canada's nefarious plan to gradually annex the United States.


7. George W. Bush assumed the Presidency in January 2002, not January 2001, thereby offsetting all failures of 2001 intelligence to the prior administration.
