here it goes... I recently stumbled across Michael Moore's website. I believe everyone has known about his antics for quite some time, but today I feel especially disgusted with this individual. First, let it be known that Moore is very well known for his characterization of George W. Bush. Now, I am by no means a W fan, but I find that Moore's celebration by liberals revolting. Liberals praise this man, even call him a saint for defaming the president of the United States. I understand the cut-throat arena that politcs today take place in, but to praise a man who is not running for what are almost mutinous allegations is ridiculous. Moore has every right to speak his mind, it is constitutionally protected to some extent... however, I think it should be noted that if he wants to make a difference, and not simply contribute to the downward spiral of partisan politics in this day and age (like he says he does) he should not defame the challenger but support vigorously the person he wants to put in charge. Perhaps Moore should buck up and run for office and put his money where his rather large and libelous mouth is. That is all... have a good day!

I hate George Bush

I hate Michael Moore

I do not understand why pro-partisan fucks can not get this.

Both of those men are terrible for this country.

wait, why is this a "must read"?

is your opinion that important?

not any more than yours, I guess I was just "feelin' it"

Agreed, I don't like Bush, and I detest Moore and the other left wing activists

I wish deep down that the Dems could put a decent candidate up for prez, but I don't see it happening in 08

i detest left wing activists who focus on bush or the war (the 2 things you really have no control over)

id rather focus on the environment and anti-racism/sexism/discrimination of any kind.

Micheal Moore can't run for office. He would have to shower, shave, and comb his hair. Three things he obviously a strong opponent of.

What this country could do without is 150-posters repeating shit that's been said more times than anyone can count, and telling me I must read it.

So, by making his films and creating public discourse, he's not accomplishing anything, whereas you're obviously more on track because you post on a message board for college students.

WAY TO SHOW HIM UP.

I don't think wtbrowne is trying to 'show moore up' he is simply saying that Moore is a calculating slob who is bad for the country and if MOORE is so upset with the status quo, why doesn't he get involved.

true, but read the rant that started all this, he is saying that Moore is getting involved the wrong way. the right way according to this guy (whose opinion at least in his mind matters) is to back the person you want and enforce positively his ideas, not by hurting the guy you don't want to occupy an office, unnastan?

perhaps im misinformed but i thought studies showed that positive ads werent as effective.


either way...
if you think about it, these slanderous ads every 2 minutes during election season are much more effective/influential than one movie to the common united states idiot voter. again, repetition works wonders (that one MM cram session wont be as effective as studying the ads night after night....LISTEN TO YOUR TEACHERS).

Sorry, George, I'm In the Majority ...from Michael Moore

11/19/05

Dear Mr. Bush:

I would like to extend my hand and invite you to join us, the mainstream American majority. We, the people -- that's the majority of the people -- share these majority opinions:

1. Going to war was a mistake -- a big mistake. (link)

2. You and your administration misled us into this war. (link)

3. We want the war ended and our troops brought home. (link)

4. We don't trust you. (link)

Now, I know this is a bitter pill to swallow. Iraq was going to be your great legacy. Now, it's just your legacy. It didn't have to end up this way.

This week, when Republicans and conservative Democrats started jumping ship, you lashed out at them. You thought the most damning thing you could say to them was that they were "endorsing the policy positions of Michael Moore and the extreme liberal wing of the Democratic party." I mean, is that the best you can do to persuade them to stick with you -- compare them to me? You gotta come up with a better villain. For heaven's sakes, you had a hundred-plus million other Americans who think the same way I do -- and you could have picked on any one of them!

But hey, why not cut out the name-calling and the smearing and just do the obvious thing: Come join the majority! Be one of us, your fellow Americans! Is it really that hard? Is there really any other choice? George, take a walk on the wild side!

Your loyal representative from the majority,

Michael Moore
