Question 3: What are your thoughts about Fahrenheit 911? Farenhype 911?

I didn't see FahrenHYPE, so I can't comment on it.

As for Fahrenheit 911, it is a brilliant piece of political
propaganda. But it is also about as historically accurate as Austin
Powers.

(Rather than try to recount the flaws in Moore's work, I would
recommend that people read Christopher Hitchens and David Hardy, both
of whom have exhaustively fact-checked Moore's assertions.)

Michael Moore movies can be entertaining--I happen to think Roger &
Me is his best work--and viewers would be best served by appreciating
them as entertainment, and not as news. So, go see a Michael Moore
film...he could use the money!
