The Joplin Globe, Joplin, MO

Voices: 5,000 and counting
We have been at war in Iraq and Afghanistan for eight years with an army of 10 divisions. You can’t expect 10 divisions to fight two wars and police the world, so we use the Guards. They pull too many tours. You can only pull so many before your luck runs out. We have lost 5,000 and thousands have been wounded.
Voices: Seeing it otherwise
John Cragin’s latest letter dealing with carbon dioxide does not actually suggest the Phlogiston theory was right all the time, but does strongly hearken to Mr. Church’s letter that yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus.
In our view: Genius of Founding Fathers
While we declared our independence from Great Britain on July 4, 1776, it took us more than nine years before we would sign the U.S. Constitution and another four years to put the Bill of Rights — the first 10 Amendments to the Constitution — into effect.
Voices: The real Obama
For all his big promises, Barack Obama is showing his true colors. He is not promoting bipartisanship or transparency in his administration.
Voices: Something for nothing
I find it amusing there is going to another “tea party” in one of the parks in Joplin.
Voices: Proud American
This Fourth of July, Americans can hold their heads up high and be proud to be an American again, as we have a president in the White House who cares about our country and its people.
Voices: Shooting up dollars
Fireworks are such a waste.
Voices: Right to choose
I have ridden a motorcycle for nearly 40 years and I’ve always worn a helmet for my own safety reasons, and I’ll continue to do so.
In our view: Public left guessing
Judge Sonia Sotomayor ruled in favor of the city of New Haven rejecting promotion examination results because black candidates did not score as high as whites and Hispanics.
Voices: Bernie blues
Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, it’s apparent you need an attorney.
Voices: Keep it simple
I believe that trying to force digital TV on all of us is a bad idea. It’s especially bad for poor people who won’t be able to buy cable or a new digital TV right away, if ever.
Voices: Liberal baggage
Barack Obama’s nominee for the Supreme Court, Sonia Sotomayor, comes with a lot of liberal baggage, such as being anti-Second Amendment, pro-choice, believing that Supreme Court justices can and should be activists, as well as using foreign court decisions to interpret United States law instead of the Constitution.
In our view: Getting drunks off the road
How important is the issue of drunken driving, and what are we willing to do about it? In the fall of 2008, the secretary of transportation reported “an estimated 12,998 people were killed in crashes where a vehicle operator had a blood-alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08 or higher.”
In our view: Safe border
There is an interesting and important debate between two powerful figures in the Obama administration. Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano wants to use the National Guard to enforce security on our southern border.
Voices: Disgraceful
Some of the rental properties in Neosho are downright disgraceful to their neighborhoods. Denying a duplex on South Lincoln after letting an apartment complex to be built next to the railroad tracks out by the underpass on Route D is spot zoning.
Voices: Need for less speed
A costly accident Friday on the Oklahoma turnpike might suggest the need for trucks to be driven slower than the car limit of 75 mph. Even with excellent brakes, the weight of loaded trucks keeps them moving long after a well-driven automobile could have been stopped.
Voices: Checkers and chess
I see in this Iranian election that we have way too many checker players and are really short on chess players. I am so thankful that our president is a “chess” player.
Iran is hooked up around the world and it is trying to drag us into a “fight” and create anarchy. Iran’s leaderes are doing everything in their power to bring us down with our own “cowboy” actions.
Voices: Holes in our heads
This is partially in response to the letter “Holes in the ozone” (Globe, June 26). My goodness, there are so many things that need to be done to reduce the effects of global warming.
I had never considered the implications of space exploration as a cause of warming. Now I am worried about the tilt in the Earth’s axis. Maybe we could move half of the launch pads at Cape Canaveral to China such that one launch’s push could be a second launch’s shove. We then stay on an even keel, Earth-wise.
Letter of the week: Another chance
The Globe’s report (June 24) about the new plan proposed by the Joplin School Board stirred many memories.
In 2003, the decision was reached to close the alternate high school at West Campus. A number of students with difficult backgrounds were being taught there by extremely dedicated teachers.
Glen Conyers: It's worth the drive for the walk
To travel by foot for me took on a whole new definition about 10 years ago. That is when Doris, my wife, took me to a walking-club meeting. You heard it right, a “walking-club” meeting.
Now I was very much aware of running clubs, but I had never heard of a walking club. So, being curious, I went with her to the Dogwood Trailblazers Walking Club’s monthly meeting in Joplin. It turned out that this was just one of 230 American Volkssport Association (AVA) Clubs throughout the United States. I was not one of those people who needed a lot more exercise, having run and jogged since 1980. But walking, what could you do with walking, but walk?
Other views:Thrift is good for us, government
Go ahead and save.
It’s OK.
The country will survive. In fact, over the long run, we’ll all be better off.
Thrift is a long-term choice individuals can make and that city, county, state and federal governments can benefit from. When the private sector saves, it gathers the capital needed to start and manage businesses. When government saves, the country discovers its best hedge against future economic crises. An America relearning the value of saving holds down the deficit and provides itself its own nest egg so that it borrows less from other countries.
Jean Griffith: Trumpeter Botti hits high note during performance
Channel-surfing can be so rewarding when searching for entertainment. And that is exactly what I was doing one night when I happened upon one of the most extraordinary musical performances I have ever experienced.
For those of us who were not lucky enough to score a ticket for the live performance in Boston’s Symphony Hall, jazz trumpeter Chris Botti’s performance will have to do. The performance is an eclectic fusion of jazz, rock and pop music, a musical style perfected by Botti’s mentor, the incomparable Sting.
Bloggers tackle use of 'czars'
Editor’s note: Four local bloggers, featured on the Globe’s Web site, www.joplinglobe.com, weigh in this week on the following question:

The federal government
has 13 czars overseeing many parts of American life. Do
you think czars are appropriate/and or necessary?
Scott Meeker: The world according to Uncle Jed
There are only a few things that I can tell you about Uncle Jed, one of the most frequent comment posters at www.joplinglobe.com.
The guy pays his property taxes.
Several commenters were able to pick up on it as he has made the transition from “Leroy” to “Moe” and then to his current online handle.
He’s a master when it comes to knowing which words to capitalize on in order to push people’s buttons.
He’s not a fan of liberals.
He’s not a fan of whiners.
Carol Stark: It's not a handout, it's a hand up
I was surprised at how sad I felt last week when I heard about the death of Farrah Fawcett.
I don’t think for a minute her one-year stint on “Charlie’s Angels” or her trademark hairstyle had anything to do with whatever pushed my emotions on Thursday.
And, whatever it was that got to me, it had the same effect on almost every woman I saw that day. Our admiration of this former “jiggle” actress had little to do with the tanned, beautiful woman of the 1970s
In our view: Justice moves too slowly
By the time Thomas White is sentenced, almost three years will have passed since his arrest.
He has gone from being a 13-year-old middle-school student to a 16-year-old inmate who’s fate has hung in limbo too long.
We are unwavering in our opinion that White must be held accountable for his actions inside Memorial Middle School on Oct. 9, 2006.
Youth view: U.S. actions over Iran are limited
As protests and violence continue on the streets of Tehran over a recent election, American citizens have plenty of opinions about what the United States should do.
Voices: Holes in the ozone
I read the story about the farmer taking his cows off corn and other grains to curb the burping from the cows in an effort to cut back on greenhouse gas. What’s next?
Guest columnist: Joplin has answer to health-care crisis
Big-time media misrepresent the U.S. health-care system as “dysfunctional.” It is only dysfunctional in so far as big government has made it so.
Do we really want big government taking over a system that is still the best in the world, in spite of big government’s past illegal interference?
In our view: Pop-culture icons will be remembered
The voice behind “Here’s Johnny,” an “angel” with a trademark hairdo, and a child who grew up to become the “King of Pop.”
We lost all three this week with the deaths of Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson.
In our view: School plan a good start
The Joplin School District’s five-year strategic plan was approved Tuesday night at the regular Board of Education meeting. In our view, it was an excellent start and those preparing the plan deserve great credit, particularly in the areas of graduation-rate improvement and long-range financial planning.
Voices: Problem-solving
Joplin’s Dillons store is located well and likely will not be hurt by the proposed construction and changes of the railroad tracks nearby.
Voices: Dinosaur of redundancy
Will we have a Heid-free Globe for a while now that we’ve seen his “position paper” of a variety of subjects? As for “Gitmo,” I pondered one person’s thought that it is technically illegal to house the prisoners at the Leavenworth site, one of the most-mentioned.
Voices: Health-care reform
The battle is on between the needs of U.S. citizens and the greed of big money which controls not only U.S. health care but also the Congress of the United States. One dollar out of every six is spent on health care. Are we really that sick?
Voices: We’re going to pay
The chief executive officer of ConocoPhillips tells us if we don’t let big oil have its way, we’re going to see an even bigger oil crisis than the ones we’ve had in the past.
Voices: Fair Tax concerns
I did some research on the Fair Tax proposal, and in a perfect world it sounds good. There are a few details, however, that I think have not been considered. The payroll taxes for instance.
Guest columnist: U.S. military needs men — and women
Throughout Ms. Owens’ letter, she presented the view that women should never be sent to war, and furthermore, should be discharged from our current one. While this is a logically flawed and backward idea, it is one that is undoubtedly shared by many others in our country.
In our view: Community shows it cares
These days, new animal shelters don’t get opened very often.
About 90 minutes east of Joplin, Christian County residents have struggled to open a badly needed animal shelter. Similar situations exist around the state and country.
In our view: Will it be enough?
Is the president doing enough to support the election protests in Iran? In our view the answer is: maybe. There is no doubt that the ruling theocracy in Iran uses the “Death to America” theme all the time to rally support from the Iranian public. It has worked for 30 years and is the basis for Iran’s foreign policy.
In our view: Our troops deserve greater care
Major steps have been taken by the Department of Defense and the Veterans Administration to help soldiers returning from war with post-traumatic stress disorder. But more needs to be done.
Voices: Health care
In his column “Health-care solutions need investigating,” (Globe, June 19), Konrad Heid asks, “Why is there suddenly such an urgency to reform health care here in the United States?”
Voices: Guns to Mexico
In a recent Parade Magazine, it was reported that the Mexican drug lords are being armed by coming into the United States and buying easily attained automatic weapons.
Voices: Can’t be both ways
In regard to Gene Lyons’ column (Globe, June 13), according to Gene, Bill O’Reilly was responsible for Dr. George Tiller’s death.
Voices: Radio memories
The recollections of Globe columnist Mike Pound about WHB radio station, a station of the ’60s and ’70s, are about like mine. I also look for a little bit different music now.
Voices: Changes at The Bridge
I wanted to write this letter in regard to the changes that have been made at The Bridge in the past few weeks. I understand that 22 employees at the youth center were let go and a new direction has been established with a new campaign called, “I Give 10,” which is to involve the community of Joplin with a larger role in its everyday activities.
Voices: Serious pondering
The Globe editorial page (June 20) provided opportunity for some heavy thinking. There was an excellent youth editorial advocating more local coverage in newspapers, a nationally syndicated column about Iran and Konrad Heid’s perspective on health care. All were thought-provoking.
Voices: Railroad crossings
On June 2, the Neosho City Council voted on a referendum to keep railroad crossings open until the South Street overpass is finished, possibly sometime around Sept. 9.
Voices: 'I wish we could!'
Voices: Change
The price of a barrel of oil closed over $71 today (June 10), and will go higher as the speculators are getting back into the market. When Barrack Obama became president, the price of oil was $35 a barrel, so we have seen the change. Oh, that’s right, he also stopped offshore drilling on 77 leases, and has stopped any looking for American oil, thereby insuring dependence on foreign oil. Isn’t change wonderful?
Guest columnist: Groups are wolves in sheep's clothing
Many animal-rights and welfare organizations pose serious threats to all animal agriculture, the livestock sector and production agriculture in general. Altogether, they have combined annual budgets of $300 million.
Scott Meeker: Lessons emphasized life well-lived
A friend called me last Friday morning to see if I had heard that one of our former classmates had died.
Christa Voss, a member of the Joplin High School class of ’94, was killed on June 9 when a motorist plowed her SUV into a group of cyclists riding on the shoulder of Highway 51 near Sand Springs, Okla. Christa and another cyclist were killed, and a third was injured.
Guest columnist: Of cabbages and kings and a father's words
Babe Ruth hit 60 in 1927. I didn’t hit 60 until 2008. This summer I hit 61. Ever since that stroke, I don’t do much, and time runs way ahead of me. But this nastily concocted arrangement of letters is not about me. Thank the good Lord above for that. It’s about a fellow with whom I share a middle and last name.
Joe Hadsall: Online readers serve up dose of advice
Health care is a lot like American Idol: It’s hard to keep your opinions about it to only a few words.
Personally, I hate American Idol, except for the first two weeks of each season. You know, the ones where they show all the bad singers? That’s chicken soup for my soul, dawg.
Carol Stark: Tribute made second time
It was bound to happen sooner or later. I’m recycling a column.
Bill and Benita Shields, of Carthage, when recently going through some boxes, unearthed an old clipping of mine from June 21, 1987. I didn’t ask if they were using it as packing material or were saving it as a keepsake. I figured it was best not to know.
In our view: A plan worth considering
Just what sort of tax system does the United States need to promote economic growth and fund government operations?
We’re not sure, but we think the Fair Tax Plan is one worth studying.
Guest columnist: Health-care solutions need investigating
Why is there suddenly such an urgency to reform health care here in the United States? Shades from the politics of 1992-93?
Youth view: Newspapers should focus on locals
As a career field, journalism perhaps has looked more promising in the past.
We see a lot of people going into the field, but there are not enough jobs to fill the pool.
In our view: Stop talking, start running
If there is any desired place to be in politics, it’s where former Missouri Treasurer Sarah Steelman is now. She gets to lob snowballs to her heart’s content without actually getting in the snowball fight.
Voices: Women on the front lines
Women on the front lines, whose idea was that? Women or the men? I think that women should stay home and take care of their homes and children. War is too dangerous for women.
Guest column, John Cragin: Public being duped about CO2
Disclaimer: The writer does not favor wasting limited resources or using inefficient machinery for unessential transportation, power production and labor-saving equipment. He loves plants (flora), including big trees, which benefit from rain, carbon dioxide and warmth.
In our view: 'It's never too late'
After repeatedly being turned down for financial assistance, Newton County officials learned on Wednesday that the county would receive a $1.3 million grant to repair and replace houses damaged by the May 2008 tornado.
Voices: Tacky
I know we are all supposed to be concerned about how our city looks. Now that summer is here, I’ve noticed week-old signs on almost every telephone pole and street corner advertising rummage sales. No one ever takes them down after their sales are over.
Voices: Is it a waste?
Voices: The sentence has no period
In one short choppy sentence, we have enough clues to end a Nicolas Cage movie in 15 minutes.
Voices: Share Clark’s column
A recent guest column by Mat Clark of Neosho (Globe, June 14) was a great and well-written article. Mr. Clark, I believe, expressed not only his personal feelings, but the feelings of many citizens of this country of ours.
Guest columnist: Species does not need dilution
Ron Hutchison (Globe, May 19) expresses outrage in his guest column at “conservatives” who resent the concept of gay marriage and invites them to “buy a one-way ticket to China” where the government will agree with them.
In our view: Up for debate
We are rapidly moving from a general discussion of the need for health-care reform to one of the specific policies and programs needed to implement that reform. In all likelihood, Congress will be voting on such specifics within the next three months.
In our view: Fragile lives
Sometimes it only takes going to a funeral or visiting friends who have suffered the loss of a loved one to move far beyond daily mundane concerns. Such experiences can remind us of the fragility of life.
Voices: Boomtown thanks
I would like to thank The Joplin Globe for the thumbs-up editorial in the Monday (June 15) paper.
Guest column, John T. McDonald: Some pertinent unsolicited notes
The acronym for the heading is PERTUNOT, or, if you prefer, PUN. It is about a way of viewing our economy.
Voices: Mistaken idea
There are two things which the progressive-socialist-communist mind-set seems to confuse: Self-interest and selfishness. It almost always labors under the mistaken idea that these two things are congruent. And its greater error is to hold that capitalism is a selfish system whereas socialism and communism are immune to this.
Voices: It depends on who you ask
Is America a Christian country, a Christian fundamentalist country, or is it God’s country? It depends on who you ask.
Is America “One Nation under God,” or is it “Jesus is Lord”? It depends on who you ask. People say one nation under God when they pledge allegiance to a Union flag.
Lincoln placed his trust in God and said: “God grant us the ability to do the right as we have the ability to see the right.”
Southerners quoted the apostle Paul, “slaves be obedient to your masters” Ephesians 6:5. Would Southerners become humble because God did not take their side? Do you need to ask?
Voices: Getting old indeed
Reading about Newt Gingrich’s keynote address to Republicans, I see that this party still has no idea why it has lost the majorities it had in Congress and the White House. The party’s tired “no taxes,” “no government aid to anyone not able to afford it in the first place” and continuing rants about its members’ superiority in faith, ethics and love of America are getting very old, indeed.
Voices: Need for a free Tibet
As a native of Tibet, I was gratified by the editorial “Tibet merits reflection” (Globe, June 9).
For years, I have grieved over China’s ruthless destruction of the culture of Tibet. There is no historical, ethnic or linguistic justification for Chinese control of Tibet. The Tibetan spirit is not broken as witnessed by the uprisings before the 2008 Olympics. I hope I live long enough to see my native country stand free again.
Voices: Mutilated trees
What is a stand of trees worth? To Empire and its tree hackers it’s just a matter of a few minutes of work using the workers’ mutilating equipment. To my neighbors and me they represent tranquility, home for birds, rabbits and squirrels. All in the name of safety, for a streetlight that is literally on the end of the line.
Voices: "I can't afford you'
In regard to “American Ramp proposes skate park at Schifferdecker” (Globe, June 2), about a $60,000 park for $29,400. Just because it’s “on sale” does not justify doing it. I can’t afford you.
Joplin City Council, I am not against the youth, I am not against the skate park. I am, however, sounding an alarm. You are positioning the city for some of the federal stimulus which is borrowed from China. Trillions! You are positioning yourselves to borrow from the Shoal Creek filter plant and, essentially, we have no say in it.
Letter of the week: Improvements at cemetery
First — we want to thank Mr. Dickie Gray and the Joplin city workers who have made improvements in Parkway Cemetery. Mr. Gray promised that he would make some changes in the cemetery, and he has kept his word.
“As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he” (Proverbs 23: 7).
We were so surprised at the improvements and changes in the scenery to the south of the road across the little branch. The bridge makes that area accessible.
In our view: Boomin' good time
Boomtown Days ’09, despite some wet weather on Friday, packed Landreth Park last week and provided those living in the Joplin area with an inexpensive way to have a good time.
We think organizers made the right decision by changing the town’s annual festival to a Thursday, Friday and Saturday event this year. In the past, the three-day event had ended on Sunday. But this year, the festival’s main attraction — a performance by the band Kansas — drew a crowd of the area’s wayward sons — and daughters. It was a great way to end Boomtown Days.
Russell Olds: Joplin never asked us to the table
I wish to address some issues regarding the city of Joplin’s new sewer rate proposal — certain points have not been made up to this time.
First of all, it is not the concept of surcharges for out-of-town users that has us upset, that has never been the issue. The fact is that Joplin wishes to play the role of “regional provider” on the surface (for which the City of Joplin has received a great deal of grant funding over the years), but they never want to include the “region” that they are affecting with these issues in any discussions.
In our view: Catching predators
Jasper and Newton counties report an out-of-the box number of child-sex abuse cases. Our children are more likely to fall victims to sex abuse than children in other Missouri counties.
Now sexual predators have another way to get to your kids: the Internet.
Last week, Globe reporters covered one of the most sexually explicit cases heard in recent years in a Jasper County Circuit Court. Donald C. Bisans, 48, of Centralia. was charged with three counts of attempted enticement of a child. It took jurors all of 32 minutes to find him guilty on all counts.
Jessica Shreindl: Newspapers will do just fine
As a soon-to-be college graduate pursuing a career in journalism, my future doesn’t look promising — and it’s I and my generation that are to blame.
I rarely pick up a newspaper.
Almost everything I learn, I learn online.
Mat Clark: Standing up for beliefs a constitutional right
Recently, there has been substantial debate in the Globe editorials about religion and specific areas of political stance. Now, in a June 7 column, we have R. Duane Graham calling those who disagree with the president’s decisions “Obama-haters.”
Well, I am here to say, I do not hate President Obama. If fact, if anything I am impressed how he has been able to do so many things so quickly. But I do disagree with him in the manner he is running this country.
Does that make me a hater, Mr. Graham?
Scott Meeker: Theater-listings letter elicits comments
A few thoughts went through my mind when I read Jim Hight’s letter Tuesday decrying Joplin’s Hollywood Northstar Theaters for not showing Michael Moore’s “Fahrenheit 9/11” but offering a live showing of Glenn Beck’s “Common Sense Tour”:
First, and probably most importantly, “Fahrenheit” DID play in Joplin. I had to go back into our archives and check, but the movie opened in Joplin on July 23, 2004.
Carol Stark: Gardens bring victory to all
If I’m reading this right, a whole lot of people are eating healthier and cheaper thanks to our failing economy. On top of that, they’re getting off the couch and spending more time outside.
Gardening appears to be one of the win-wins of the recession.
Wally Kennedy’s story last week featuring the crop of Victory Gardens at Able Manufacturing & Assembly, 1000 S. Schifferdecker Ave., took our readers outside the plant where employees are growing veggies on the company’s front lawn.
Voices: What's wrong with this picture?
Who has a problem with reconciling the Obamas’ date nights with average American families standing in food-bank lines, desperately searching for jobs, and doing without the basics?
Obama says he owes his wife because she sacrificed so much during the campaign but she sure doesn’t look hungry to me, nor do their children.
Youth view: Return funds to programs
One of our youth editorial board members won’t be with us for a few weeks. She is at Missouri State University, participating in the Missouri Fine Arts Academy — where she is joining about 185 of the state’s most talented, artistic students.
Voices: Restitution, not prison
The matter concerning Dr. Brian Ellefsen and his brother (both convicted of tax evasion) is a serious situation, there is no denying that. But to make an example of them is in no way the right thing to do.
Voices: Couldn’t do worse
I want to comment on Allen Shirley’s latest rant (Globe, May 27). His verbiage can’t disguise the plain truth.
Voices: Silence
For weeks, even months now, conservative radio talk-show hosts have been laying out a detailed case of an elected American president daily working to undermine the financial and military security of his own country.
Voices: Torture apologists
Lots of recent events have weighed on my mind recently. One concerns many torture apologist letters written to the Globe that are basically summed up as: “You want to fight terrorism don’t you? Besides, waterboarding isn’t so bad! It’s nothing compared to boot camp, or my high-school swim team.”
In our view: Radio bill bad idea
For almost 80 years, radio and music artists have enjoyed a symbiotic relationship.
Radio stations play songs from artists that appeal to listeners, thus granting the station an audience and a marketable commodity: air time. In return, those artists gain new fans and customers, thus enjoying more record sales.
In our view: Finding the best outcome
North Korea has been thumbing its nose at the West in general and the United States in particular for more than 20 years. In our view, it is time for the United States, Japan and South Korea to say no more and articulate serious, even military consequences.
Voices: What’s in a name?
There are some of Mr. Obama’s politics I dispute, and often I simply see as a chancy thrill ride of a lifetime.
Voices: No time for politics
We read that oil again is going up in price. This despite the fact that there is no evidence of rise in demand, and storage facilities are almost full.
Guest column, Matt Lane: Justice system failed rape victim
Amid all the noise — both on the local and national stage — there must be time for the child. The David Earls travesty has focused eyes on the Oklahoma criminal justice system and its inherent flaw when it comes to child rape victims.
In our view: Stop talking and start working
If job creation is really a key priority for the state of Missouri, then Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder and House Budget Chairman Allen Icet need to change their tune. The two talked to members of the media on Monday, suggesting that Missouri universities may have been “forced” by Gov. Jay Nixon to use federal stimulus money on Nixon’s Caring for Missourians program.
In our view: Tibet merits reflection
This is not a topic controlling the headlines today in our tumultuous world, but it is one deserving some reflection, in our view. The Tibetans practiced a culture at least 1,200 years old centered on their version of Buddhist beliefs. Their land was the size of Western Europe today.
Voices: Health care
Well, what do you think of the problems with Social Security? They stem from Congress — regardless of party — raiding funding from the Social Security Trust Fund.
Voices: Movies
I was checking the movie listings the other day to see what was playing in Neosho and Joplin, when I noticed that the Hollywood Northstar Theaters in Joplin will be presenting a live showing of Glenn Beck’s Common Sense Tour. This is the same theater chain that would not show “Fahrenheit 911” because it was too controversial.
