grin of the day

Michael Moore's film, Fahrenheit 9/11 is now showing in
the Islamic Republic of Iran. The authorities there (who
usually are heavy-handed when it comes to censoring
films from the U.S.A.) were only too happy to allow a film
with a strong anti-Bush sentiment to be screened in their
country.

Iranians' reactions to the film were mixed, but one young
theater-goer had an interesting response to it:

"It sure is a great country, where someone like Moore
trashes the president and gets away with it - and makes
so much money!"
