From Michael Moore-wanabee Robert Greenwald, who brought you lefty docu-hits on Wal-Mart, Rupert Murdoch, and Tom DeLay, comes “Iraq for Sale, The War Profiteers” – a new corporate slam (officially released today – the long wait is over!) that takes on boogeyman Haliburton. If you want to get some idea what it’s about, simply take a look at who’s flacking the flick: leading the drumbeat are Keith Olberman (Countdown gave Greenwald’s propaganda a big wet smooch on September 18th) and notorious lefty Robert Borosage, who hosted its D.C. premier last week (in case you don’t recall this Nation contributing editor, he’s a former top advisor to Jessie Jackson presidential campaigns, fellow-traveled for the Sandinistas and Castro during the 1980s while el jefe of the Institute for Policy Studies, and now heads the George Soros-funded Campaign for America’s Future). And then there are Mr. Greenwald’s friends on Capitol Hill: Senator Byron Dorgan showcased the film at a recent Democrat Policy Committee hearing (at which Sens. Reid, Leahy, Durbin, Bingaman made appearances). The usual suspects are rounding up. But theatre patrons ain’t. This from the film’s website:

“now it is up to you to distribute it by promoting the film, sharing DVDs and organizing screenings. . . . Oct. 8th-14th is the Patriotism over Profit week of screening festivities. Each night has a different theme and will have two conference calls you can dial in to at 9:30pm ET. Director Robert Greenwald will be hosting the calls with guests still to be announced. (they will be great!) . . . While supplies last: If you host a screening and buy a DVD, we’ll send you the $20 promotional kit FREE. (posters, stickers, dog tags, tattoos)

I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to get my “Iraq for Sale” tattoos. I’ll close with this last bit of info, again, according to the film’s website: the October 8th and 9th screenings in Brooklyn will be hosted by “Pete’s Candy Store.” Good Ol’ Pete! Don’t you just love liberals!
