  he ran into a 80 some year old guy just sobbing his heart out. He fought in WWII and wonders what the hell he fought for~ because it certainly wasn't this.

  Xandria, my uncle was a WWII veteran and my father is a veteran of both Korea and Vietnam, my brother-in-law also a Vietnam vet. My father has long been disgusted by the military. I think that's one of the reasons he was drawn to the witnesses. There are many heros who died to defend our freedom. There are many young men who fought and died so I wouldnt have to. That is made clear in Moore's movie. But I agree with you, our Freedom is absolutely NOT at stake with this war and THAT is what is also made clear. I just kept thinking to myself "Shame on Them".

  p.s. I remember when I went to see Forrest Gump with my dad in the theatre, during the scenes when Bubba gets shot, my dad left the theatre in tears. My own dad, a big strong, manly man, cried while watching it. My brother-in-law who drives a truck with an American flag on it and stickers that say "thank a vet" is disgusted by the waste of human lives for a handle full of people's personal vendettas.

  Yeah sounds pretty Hypocrittical (sp?) to me. At least you're smart enough to see that in advance.

  I work with a woman who is ubber-religious. She has the Jesus calendar on her desk, a cross on the wall next to her desk a bible on her desk. She always tells me how God talks to her and tells her what decisions to make. She wants to pray with me all the time in the office. This woman is the meanest most impatient woman when it comes to business. Every one of my lenders has told me they think she's crazy. She got really snotty with me a couple of months and said a VERY mean thing to me. I replied "is that anyway for a Christian to talk?" It shut her up really quick.

  Good luck Sandy with the dating scene. It takes some creeps to find some great ones. Some great ones are more compatible

  Well I for one very much enjoyed the movie. Of course most movies are designed to help you escape from reality, it's a refreshing break to see a movie that brings reality (or one person's version of it) to you. I originally went to see it at the Santa Monica Promenad. Every show at every theatre for that day was sold out. Of course one should suspect that from a "new age, liberal, hippie" town. Outside their were lines of people to get in and twice I witnessed literal physical fights between supports of the movie and protesters of it. I finally made a showing at 11:10pm in my city. The place was completly packed. In the opening scenes the audience booed all of the major political players in this mess.

  I did find parts of it a bit nick picky. Like when he kept goin on and on about the Patroit act and homeland security. The State Trooper and and the irony of lighters but not breast milk being aloud on planes, was just a bit over the top. I enjoyed many of the quotes that he included, sometimes you forget things that were said months before. It was great to be reminded of contradictions. Some of the pictures of the casualties of war were too much for me to see. I didnt get a chance to turn my head in time during some of the pictures. I am very sensitive to that sort of thing. Certain visuals get stuck in my head and I dont like them there.

  I cried when the mother lost her soldier son. I cried when she read his letter, and I cried whe she visited DC. There is a maternal emotion that I think only the women in the audience could appreciate. I liked how Moore did not take his crusade personally against the soldiers and in stead made them out to be heros. Moore got a standing ovation from the audience when he tried to get members of Congress to inlist their sons. All in all I think he made it clear that his crusade was very much aimed at Bush, his administration and business friends who stand to gain financially from the war.

  I finished The DaVinci Code not to long ago with I really really enjoyed.

  And I'm not joking, I'm currently reading Mein Kampf from Adolf Hitler. It's a very long book, and I've been working on it for ages.

  For myself personally I do not beleive in abortion. I take very cautious steps to make sure I dont find myself in that situation. For me persoanlly I do not beleive abortion should be used as a form of birth control.

  But on the flip side, someone very close to me got pregnant by a much older, married man. She was not even in a position to take care of the children she already had. I suggested an abortion. She aborted, and I was there to support her through it. In my opinion it was the best decision for her to make.
