DUDE, WHERE'S MY COUNTRY

DUDE, WHERE'S MY COUNTRY

Comment by Larry Ross, 6 Oct 2003

This guy, author Michael Moore, who scored a hit with his book "STUPID WHITE MEN," is apt to score another with his new book, "DUDE, WHERE IS MY COUNTRY?."

He is incredibly courageous and his success means, in his words "we are not alone".
There is a growing body of similar-thinking people. If you read his intro, perhaps you will agree that he one of, if not the world leader, as a devastating political wit. Lets pray he does not meet with "an accident" during his 12 month tour. And lets hope another, so- opportune, "terrorist attack", such as 9/11, does not occur to frighten the American people not to work to impeach Bush, but to go back under Bush's "war on terrorism" blanket - so Bush can be re-elected in 2004, and give the world more of his wars on
terrorism as he has promised to do. He certainly is fundamentalist-insane enough in belief, policy, past actions and statements, to precipite a nuclear armageddon.

The fundamentalists believe God promised Armageddon and world destruction in the Bible, and no Fundamental Christian opposes God's word and what they believe is God's will.

Although they are Fundamental, they actually don't have much "fun". But their name is right because they are all "dam-mental".

When you see suicide bombers, who usually die for their faith, as well as making a desparate gesture of retaliation against illegal and oppressive Israeli occupation, have a thought also about christian fundamentalist believers who are not afraid to die in a godly-ordained
and biblically-prophesied Armageddon war between "good (Bush) and evil (everyone against him)." Hope you enjoy Moore. Perhaps we should cultivate our sense of humour, to help face and deal with, the Bush Administration's mad race toward human extinction.

We owe it to him, and to us too.

Michael Moore's New Book,
"Dude Where's My Country?" Hits the Streets

October 3, 2003

I have written a new book, and this Tuesday it's being released. It's called, "DUDE, WHERE'S MY COUNTRY?" Because its content is likely to upset more than a few people, the publisher has "embargoed" the book until midnight Monday (which means no store or media outlet or anyone has access to a copy of the book until then).

They have taken these measures because I have written a book that seeks not to defeat the Bush people next year, but to have them removed from Washington right now. I know, I'm not asking for much. But I have spent the better part of the past year researching and writing this new book, and when you read it you'll see why the current criminal investigation of the White House for outing a CIA agent in revenge is, in my opinion, just the tip of the iceberg. I can only hope that my book will make a small contribution toward that day when we'll see one long perp walk of administration officials in handcuffs being led out of the White House and into a waiting paddy wagon. Like I said, I'm not asking for much.

"Dude, Where's My Country?" is also my humble attempt to violate the Patriot Act on every single page of the book. And, I have learned that many want to get on John Ashcroft's evildoer list with me. There are already a record number of orders from bookstores across the country. The first printing alone is almost one million copies (my last book's first printing was 50,000). Chapters include "Oil's Well That Ends Well," "The United States of BOO!", "How to Talk to Your Conservative Brother-in-law," and more.

If you get the New York Times, you may have noticed a mysterious ad for the past four days in the Arts section. Each day, the ad simply asks a new, pointed question of Mr. Bush. They are questions from my new book, from a chapter entitled, "Seven Questions for George of Arabia." We are running one ad each day until the book comes out on Tuesday. In case you've missed
them, here are the first four:

1. Dear Mr. Bush, is it true that the bin Ladens have had business relations with you and your family off and on for the past 25 years?
2. Dear "Mr. President," what is the "special relationship" between the Bushes and the Saudi royal family?
3. Dear "Mr. President," who attacked the United States on September 11th-a guy on dialysis from a cave in Afghanistan, or our friends, the Saudi Arabians?
4. Dear "Mr. President," why did you allow a private Saudi jet to fly around the U.S. in the days after September 11th and pick up members of the bin Laden family and then fly them out of the country without a proper investigation by the FBI?

In my book, I provide some of the answers and all of the background evidence. It is astounding, and it is criminal. Will there be one Democrat in Congress willing to begin the investigation?

After the book's release, I take off on a 30-city tour over 25 days.
Many of these dates are already sold-out, so check my website first to see where you can find me. I will also be on the "Today Show" on Tuesday, and "The View" and "Conan" on Wednesday.

You may want to stay in touch with my website as I'll be putting up a lot of new stuff over the next few days and weeks. I'm also planning to keep a diary of my tour, complete with photos from the road.

For me, this is the kickoff of a 12-month campaign for regime change in Washington, DC. I hope you can join me and the millions of other Americans who are committed to Bush Removal in '04. "Dude, Where's My Country?" is my guidebook on how to create a majority of sane Americans who are increasingly fed up and want their country back.

Click here to get your copy, and I hope to see you somewhere across this great land in the next month.

Yours,
Michael Moore

PS. As I head into the release of this new book, I want to thank EVERYONE who read "Stupid White Men" and made it the largest selling non-fiction hardcover book of the year. It is now in its 53rd printing in the U.S., with over 4 million copies sold worldwide. This success only strengthens my resolve that things are getting better and we are not alone.

PPS. For my friends outside the U.S., "Dude, Where's My Country?" is being published in over four dozen countries this autumn. In the UK and Ireland, it's coming out this Tuesday. That's one of the perks you get when one of you are in the Coalition of the Willing!
