There is a showing of 'Hillary: the Movie' tonight in Brooklyn, sponsored by WTAM 1100.

Did anyone else get tickets?

I've been poking around trying to find out if there are any major points of contention with the accuracy of any of the claims made in the movie. If anyone knows of any, please let me know.

It's being produced by a group that I can't even bring up the acronym of, noted about at this blog post:

Pretty vile group, in my opinion, and I am not even a Clinton fan.

are you sure these are the same groups?

There are two groups - the aforementioned one, which is called "Citizens United not timid" and "Citizens United" - a different, seemingly larger, anti-Hilary group. I mistakenly thought they were the same.

Looks like the first group's t-shirt business is a separate anti-Hilary group who just makes t-shirts, not movies.

My enthusiasm for obviously partisan "documentaries" remains low. On the other end of the spectrum, my enthusiam for "Bowling for Coumbine" was pretty low, though I thought "Sicko" had merit on the facts.
