LOS ANGELES - Michael Moore says he won't submit "Fahrenheit 9/11" for consideration as best documentary at this year's Academy Awards. Instead, he's going for the bigger prize of best picture.

Moore's critically acclaimed film slams President Bush's war on terror as ill-advised and corrupt. The movie has cheered Democrats but enraged the president's supporters, who booed Moore when he visited the Republican National Convention last week.

"For me the real Oscar would be Bush's defeat on Nov. 2," Moore told The Associated Press during a phone interview Monday from New York.

It wasn't even the best documentary this year... yeesh.

(Morgan Spurlock's "Super Size me" takes that prize).

I suppose you could easily nominate it for "Best 2 hours of half truths and sophistry from a demagogue of over 300 pounds". He'd win that easily.
