Bush doesn't want it. The Republicans are scared sh__less of it. And Disney is hoping and praying that it will just somehow go away and die someplace quietly outside the borders of the US of A. What we are witnessing here is blatant, partisan- and multimegamedia-sanctioned censorship of a not-so-flattering portrayal of the Bush Administration that could very well have an influence on the outcome of the upcoming election.
As things stand now Miramax is trying to buy the film back from Disney, who have flatly refused to advertise or distribute the movie they financed, because Jeb Bush, the Governor of Florida, could potentially curtail many of the tax breaks that Disney World currently enjoys in that other great Sunshine State. Now isn't that just about the most unAmerican thing you've ever heard out of Disney? Walt would surely be turning in his grave. (Or would he?)
The key point is that all freedom-loving and cherishing Americans need to be given the opportunity to see this film, or else we could all be very well turning in our own.
Go get 'em Harvey...! (i.e. Weinstein) You've got the power...!
