The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Alexandra Pelosi, the documentary's director, is the daughter of Nancy Pelosi, Minority Leader of the House of Representatives and former Speaker for the 110th and 111th Congresses. Her mother is a leftist high-ranking Democrat and a politician of great power. She, herself, is a leftist - and her liberal creed is pretty obvious after seeing Right America: Feeling Wronged. Alexandra Pelosi does not present us with a real picture of right- wing Americans - she is not interested in understanding them at all. They have no background, they have no history - and many of them seem to have become part of the documentary only because their reactions would make conservatives look bad (silly, stupid, unhinged and so on). This isn't true journalism, this is just political activism masquerading as journalism. If you want to learn more about Right America, just tune in to Talk Radio and listen to the people that call Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity or Mark Levin. Listen to what they have say, listen to how they say it. It's an easier and a more efficient way to see what the other side's motives are. And no, rejecting Barack Obama's policies is not racism. And no, opposition to gay marriage is not homophobia. And no, being pro-life does not mean you have women, quite the contrary (most aborted babies are female) etc. Think outside the box.

Slanted - no doubt. And I will try to watch the other views - I believe Sarah Palin involved in a documentary about the liberal media and I will watch that also. BUT, this kind of movie-making needs to be a part of our discussions.These people are REAL and their views may be right-on - who knows? I for one disagree with them, but I need to understand them. I have lived with people like this and worked with people like this. I feel sad that their views can be short-sighted. BUT, everyone needs to watch this and make their own decisions.Maybe this movie just speaks to one of the issues Obama was running on??? - EDUCATION. Those that forget the past are doomed to repeat it! I guess I should try to watch Fox news now?! - ouch , hurts the brain.

Can we have a Muslim President? Can we have a President with no religious system? Is it okay to let a black person lead our nation? Maybe we need to ask ourselves if the person we need is a great self - promoter, or are we looking for a good, honest administrator?This film shows that most people want to be dazzled by a playboy hot dogging fighter-crasher(Google the Forrestall.) Enough, fortunately, just want to elect someone who wants to restore dignity to our people. I hope we can allow that to happen, in spite of ourselves. Pelosi, Liberal, Leftist, Socialist. These are NOT derogatory terms, they don't hurt the people they apply to, they just scare the ignorant.

I tried to find an email to Miss Pelosi to no avail... One question she should have asked was "Lets say Bobby Jindal were to run for office in 2012 or beyond. Would you still have the same views?" This would have put some people quiet for a moment and the audience would see the real truth to the matter of electing officials. Most would probably say,"If that were the case-I will not vote" WAKE UP REPUBLICANS: He is one possible future to the party. Overall though, the documentary was great. I especially liked when she asked one man, "Do you only listen to FOX NEWS because they only tell you what you want to hear?" All he could say in exasperation was "No"
