See Moore's film, and pray for president

Contrary to the White House, Rush Limbaugh and Fox News, I recommend all Americans see the movie Fahrenheit 9/11 for enlightenment. The American people have been the successful target of a massive misinformation campaign, and we have no one to blame other than ourselves. Fahrenheit 9/11 raises issues the news has conveniently concealed.

I am not suggesting that the Christian right change their vote for President Bush. I suggest you view this movie and realize this administration needs your prayers. The Republican Party has taken the votes of the Christian right for granted. Hear the president declare the "have, and the have some more" as his base.

This administration and the Republican Party reward their friends at our expense. Look at the number of military jobs and at the number of civil service jobs lost to private contractors here at Fort Gordon. Vice President Dick Cheney had led the national transition to privatizing government jobs under former President Bush. Imagine the amount of money exchanging hands between the federal government and private contractors. That's our money!

I urge all Americans to see Fahrenheit. Christian brothers and sisters, return to your knees in prayer for this administration, this president and our country. View it because it will inform you to what extent your president needs your help. He and his administration need your prayers that they will put the welfare of American citizens first. ...

Fahrenheit 9/11 will let you see that this administration has been polluted by the world. See the movie and recognize the urgency in praying for your president.
