Of course, if you like your opinions pre-packaged, so you don't have to do any of the work yourself, Mr. Moore's probably fine for you. Your "glad to see it going down the gutter" comment tells me where you're really coming from. Just another in the long line of America haters. Yawn.
Of course, this sentence completely contridicts itself. I'm an America hater? I worked for a US company. For years. It paid my wages. I am very political - I've worked for political parties before. I don't accept any prepackaged opinions.
Of course, we all know that I'm an America-hater (a long line of) because 7 words were interrepted that way on an internet forum.
Do you see the point here?
There are very, very serious questions about the Bush administration, and it's actions over the past 4 years. How can you start an illegal war, based on a lie, without much question? There's lots of questions. History will answer those questions.
It's just completely dishearting to see 50% of the country don't see this.

I find nothing ambiguous about your statement that you're glad to see America (and me with it, I guess) going down the gutter. Seems pretty hateful to me. If I told you I'd like to see you going down the gutter, (I don't, btw. Just an example) how would you interpret that?
I also don't have any doubt that the Bush administration has questions to answer. I'd just prefer that they were asked in a serious forum, rather than through Mr. Moore's carnival of half-truths and self-aggrandizement. While his "guilty until proven innocent" style appeals to you, because you've already made up your mind that the Bushies are guilty (e.g. "How can you start an illegal war, based on a lie...") it turns off many fair-minded people who might otherwise consider his basic arguments.

I can surely see why y'all are gettin' a bit fumed at each other. It's ok. I read over those sites too... pretty funny propaganda, like you say. I heard Michael Moore's speech in Utah recently, before the election, and let me tell you, even though his points were good in the bowling for columbine and fahrenheit 911 movies, he is no public speaker. I felt bad for the school that paid him $50,000 for his input. He really didn't say anything. He mooed and booed a lot back at some of the crowd, got one kid thrown out for looking at him funny and gesturing to his pocket, and then he brings out Roseanne... geesh. that's no crowd pleaser either. He was rather annoyingly sarcastic, and I'm on his side! Anyway, I had 2 things I really wanted to say. If y'all really want a moderator to look over your chats and send you an email asking you to be nice, I can talk to one and see what he'll do. And that initial site was way funny. Y'all should read all the way to ben affleck at least. I laughed my butt off at the comments about him.

That was the whole point of thread to be honest. I found the entire list and the comments to be rather hilarious LOL. Glad you enjoyed it as much as I.

Auraptor, resurrecting a dead thread so you can get the last word is trolling. Stop it.
The more I get to know people the more I like my dogs.

Hardware - First time I saw this post, so don't get so fussy. I wish Michael Moore would go away as much as anyone. Respond as you feel, I shant. I'm done w/ this thread.
