From: "Mark" 

Actually, though I don't have url's handy, I do recall reading that Kerry
is losing in the 18-34 group. Think about it, even with a 90+% liberal
faculty for a couple of generations, the Dems continue to lose ground.
You'd think if their (the professors) agenda had serious merit to those
that must pay for, and listen to it, that at least 70% would be following
in their professor's idealogy by now).

I rented and watched F-9/11 and I can see why Dems are so excited over it,
it's very slick indeed and certainly establishes Moore as a serious
propagandist. (why people are hot for propaganda to forward their candidate
over substance is worrisome though)

I think though, that anyone with more than sawdust for brains will treat it
as entertainment (and indeed, it is very amusing) rather than a vote
swaying medium. Especially if they're capable of spelling and using Google.
While there are many sites that do a point-by-point debunking of his
distortions, this one seems pretty good overall:
