This Divided State
(2005)
Wow, this film has everything: bullying conservatives, heroic champions of the First Amendment, Sean Hannity, Hannitized conservatives shouting down outnumbered liberals, a guy who makes Sean Hannity seem almost moderate, Michael Moore, a guy who looks like Michael Moore, a guy who talks like a lunatic but makes perfect sense, and a climactic and heartbreaking act of unspeakable treachery. Oh, and also the 2004 presidential election results, as if there hadn't been enough heartbreak.
It's clearly a shoestring project, but a painstakingly fair one: we hear about and see acts of liberal assholishness as well as acts of conservative assholishness, and if we hear about and see more of the latter, well, maybe that's just the nature of the beast.
