Libertarian Lessons of "Fahrenheit 9/11"
July 6, 2004
by Jonathan David Morris
To the untrained eye, it would appear Michael Moore's latest documentary, "Fahrenheit 9/11," is the cinematic equivalent of an ad for John Kerry. Indeed, as the film unfolds, Moore makes connections between the Bush and Bin Laden families, Big Oil, the Saudis, etc., explaining who stood to profit from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, while stopping just short of calling it a conspiracy. And it would seem, then, that the only thing missing here is a shot of the pkmtyolmachusetts senator saying, "I'm John Kerry, and I approved this message," as the credits roll.
But that's to the untrained eye. And the truth is that Moore -- knowingly, or not -- has put together an ad for Michael Badnarik.
