    George W. Bush: There's an old saying in Tennessee... I know it's in Texas, probably in Tenneessee that says "Fool me once..."
    [pauses]
    George W. Bush: "... shame on...".
    [pauses]
    George W. Bush: "... shame on you"
    [pauses once again]
    George W. Bush: "You fool me, you can't get fooled again..."
    Michael Moore: For once, we agreed.

    That link doesnt work :(

    Found this though. Would be better without the pauses :D

    i cant stop laughin at the bit where bush is signing autographs and someone suggests to him that maybe hes taking too many holidays:

    "well they dont understand the definition of work, its amazing what can happen with telephones and faxes(:D )...later i'm gonna be goin through some initiatives...there will be some decisions that i will have taken..."

    bushs' mannerisms during the film reveal plenty, his patheic attempts to laugh off allegations just go to highlight the face of a man who has dark secrets or someone who cant think and stand at the same time...its both!!

    michael moore pi**es me off, he milks that dead soldiers mother for all he can get...literally of course, he cheapens his arguments with silly lines like "whos your daddy" and all that "maybe i've been hanging out with the wrong crowd" stuff, but if he helps to deny bush a second term...:D

    I'm sorry... did you see a different film to the rest of us? I saw a man that didn't deserve to be in the White House, that cheated his way to the White House by getting his rich friends, brother and daddy to help him out. That isn't something to be admired, if you do I feel pretty sorry for you.

    "I'm a war president " ... how does he get away with quotes like that ???? :rolleyes:

    I saw it last night , thought it was a good film , I think the people slagging it off have to see where moore is coming from , he is trying to counter-act the propaganda machine of the most powerful man in the world. He has a targeted audience set out , so if it is dumbed down or sensationalist then its because he is trying to get his points across to the average american .... He may well be using propaganda but maybe thats the only way to counter Bush's lies and deceit ...I hope his main aim works and bush does not get in for a 2nd term .....

    Wether or not the public vote Bush in ot not, its ultimately the Senate's who choose, he got in before with considerably less votes. and I wouldnt be surprised if he gets in again, a lot of Americans hate the man more than we do.

    Excellent. Can't call it a movie can't call a documentary but nevertheless I really enjoyed. Did not learn anything new though. Already knew Bush was an idiot and the war was a seriously bad mistake.

    I particularly liked the spoof on the coalition of the willing. Anyway I endorse.
