If you can stand another entry about Fahrenheit 911...

...my sweetie jwermont just forwarded me this excellent critique of the movie by Robert Jensen, professor of journalism at the University of Texas: "Stupid White Movie: What Michael Moore Misses About the Empire".

Hmmm. Any article that calls The Onion 'squeamish' for its coverage after 9/11 - which was, in my opinion, among the best articles written about it in any forum, anywhere - loses a few credibility points in my estimation.

I'm not convinced that that article is anything more than the usual exhortation to the Left to be a bit less self-critical if it wants to win. Trouble is, the part of the Left I support doesn't want to win at that sort of price.

Haven't seen Farenheit 9/11 yet, though, so I'm not certain where my beliefs lie on this one.
