Slacker Uprising

Download for free Michael Moore's newest film "Slacker Uprising".
See the trailer here.

Michael Moore, who brought us the great documentry productions of Roger and Me, Canadian Bacon, Bowling for Columbine, Fahrenheit 9/11, Sicko, and now Slacker Uprising, is giving away this, his latest film for free to anyone who signs up for the download.

I did not realize I was part of the Slacker Uprising until I started watching the film. A large group of friends and I went to see Michael Moore in Nashville during the 2004 presidential campaign. I remember that the arena had not sold very many seats, and so had only prepared as small portion of the auditorium for the anticipated crowd. But there were thousands of walk ups. Thousands.

It was a wonderful evening. We cheered and laughed and cried a bit. We went away feeling like it might actually be possible to defeat GWB. Unfortunately, we did not realize how Americans are so inclined to vote against their own self interest.

Turn Turn Turn.
