Disney Forbidding Distribution of Film That Criticizes Bush Pt II

[Stratos]

Here's the original article in Swedish.

In the article Bradbury says that his political views has nothing to do with his anger towards Moore. Just for the records, what are Bradbury's political views?

The actual word used in the original Swedish article is skitstovel. I did a Google Search for a Swedish<->English Translation Dictionary. According to that site, the English equivalent to skitstovel is a word that would result in an automatic suspension here - and perhaps even a permanent ban.

Here is the Translation Dictionary I used Swedish<->English Translation Dictionary

I'll let you look up the term skitstovel and decide for yourself what Bradbury thinks of Michael Moore.

I already posted that link Stratos but thanks for the reminder. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yikes!! thats a tad worse than "Ass-Hole" Perhaps WND edited it to be more acceptable for ITS viewing audience just as the Beeb did.

I am still quite skeptikal, though if the Swedish interveiw is real, then is appears Mr. Bradbury has changed his tone a bit if his words from the two different interveiws are compared:

Bradbury said he would rather avoid litigation and is "hoping to settle this as two gentlemen, if he'll shake hands with me and give me back my book and title".

Compared with:

Michael Moore is a screwed a--hole, that is what I think about that case... ...."[Moore] is a horrible human being – horrible human!"

It should also be noted, though I cannot find the extended article that was available when this first became an issue, that I got the impression that Bradbury did not want the title of the film changed, but rather wanted Moore to symbolically "give" the book back in some sort of public capacity, though he was vague on the details of such an exchange. I will continue to look around for the extended article and post a link if I find it.

Man Chewie you just cannot give it up can you?? The Swedish Article I linked to way back when was THE original interview, there has been NO change in his attitude, he has been and continues to be pissed off at Moore.


Edit: It is apparent that the BBC and WND cleaned up the rather foul invective to get past their obscenity censors. sheesh How hard is it to admit your wrong about WND?

To make things more difficult, I'm going to point something out...

Moore has yet to respond to the most serious criticisms levelled at his film, Bowling for Columbine, his response is over a year old and the criticisms just a little older. In the more than a year since, he has not responded, in any way, to the real criticisms, as compiled on Hardy's page.

The Point
(2)
The Counterpoint
(3)
The Rebuttal

At stage 3 of this argument, Moore is caught with his pants down, and it ain't a pretty sight, especially when millions of Moore cheerleaders are left to either ignore or strawman the above statements into a form acceptably supportive of Moore.

The Prosecution rests.

Errr I commented once on how Mr. Moore resembles in the face area the Cartoon dad on Family guy....now the thought of him with his pants down is a visual I did not need, thank you very much

[Oblivion437]

I apologize for that, but it had to be done...

But speaking of Family Guy:

"How the hell did those get up there?"

LOL, Well said!

Looks like they will have to quit airing their current ads for the movie due to violations of the McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Reform Laws...apparently the law that the LEFT really pushed for forbids using the images of presidential candidates from being aired prior to an election. Not that it will matter over seas where they don't have to follow our laws.
