5000 word op-ed piece on Moore written by somebody with too much time on their hands

Read it if you don't like him ... don't bother if you do. Yes it has a conservative slant, but what doesn't have a slant nowadays? Anyway, even taking the article with a grain of salt and taking into account some of its bias, it only adds to my dislike of the guy (Moore)

Not too bad an article really. The guy wasn't too far off the mark. I could get nit-picky and pick at his Conservatively-biased statements here and there, but you already know he is a little bit slanted.

As for Moore himself, he's a writer and filmmaker, so he's going to stretch the truth a bit. It is deceptive, but no more deceptive than O'Reilly, Sean Hannity (or all of Faux News for that matter), Limbaugh, Coulter, and the rest of the Conservatives stretching truths and being deceptive in their own right to fit their agendas. What is somewhat good about either extreme is they do bring an issue to the table, and hopefully a wiser person can dissertain the what's true and what's not. The gullible, however, will not, and these people are unfortunately easily influenced by these folks.

I can't wait to see Moore's newest production. It was endorsed by some huge name corporations including Disney. Supposedly, he's gonna spill the beans on the Bush administration's little, dirty secrets.

I know you're gonna be the first in line for this one occrider.

Oh yes ... I truly cannot wait . Please michael moore really spill the beans on the secrets of the Bush administration that all of us dullards missed. Because despite the efforts of all the best and brightest intellectual liberals out there, I'm certain that only you can lift the veil of ignorance from all of our eyes.

Ahhh the sheer hypocrisy of Moore's latest film being produced by disney. One could not have dreamed of a greater irony than this!! It truly brings a sardonic smile to my face, and validates every iota of belief that I have that Moore is either the teapot or the kettle ... take your pick. Stupid white men indeed!
