What is your point, Walter, that us "leftoids" should hold our tongue and
avoid any criticism of this film? Who do you think we are, the Democratic
Party? This particular "leftoid" can rejoice at the success of Fahrenheit
9/11, in both Cuba AND the United States (and elsewhere), and still remains
perfectly capable of criticizing the film not JUST for "what it left out"
but also for what it put in.

My review of the film here:

Another interesting review of the film just published in Workers World,
written by Dierdre Griswold, comparing Fahrenheit 9/11 to Uncle Tom's Cabin:
