Michael Moore could not be nominated. The timing of Farenheit 9/11's release to DVD disqualified it, based on the Academy's rules. He knew that, but released it anyway.

Any article I've read doesn't support that claim. Moore could not be nominated for Best documentery because it was realeased for Pay-Per-View TV prior to 2005 BUT could have and should have for best picture.

I've given my opinion on this flick before, but I'll just add that f9/11 wasn't a documentary, Ken Burns does documentaries, Moore makes movies, big difference.

I'd rather go shark hunting using my manhood for bait than praise Bush, but this flick was unfair and poorly presented. It just wasn't that good, it plain and simple didn't deserve to be nominated IMO.
