I almost wish I'd seen it, but pretty tame all in all.

Nice exit:
I actually have no security here ... the power of prayer protects me.

Nice to see Moore reign himself in enough to sound completely serious (but without being humourless).

I thought he choked on a ham sandwich.

/sorry Momma Cass, you had more talent than Moore

Michael Moore is FAT so we don't have to listen to him.

My opinion is just an amalgamation of other peoples' opinions with no critical review or analysis.

So Michael Moore supports Obama, does he? Well, I won't hold that against Obama. It's not his fault.

Talk about the kiss of death...

Obama just said 'chinks' on Olbermann!

He backed him a number of days ago. Old news, subby.

Also, as has been said, judge the candidate, not those who support them. If you don't like Moore that's fine, but don't pretend Obama is somehow worse for tolerating that endorsement.

Is this Reverend Wright II: Electric Bugaloo? For the love of god let's hope he doesn't get a film out by election day.

/He porbably will though, and do talk shows etc., praising Obama whilst stroking his own ego.
//This makes me a sad Obam-whatever suffix we're adding now.

well, it's not really obamas fault I guess.

I am anxiously awaiting Michael Moore's hearth attack. He has got to realize that he is a tremendous bullshiatter. It takes serious balls to just knowingly come out and say things that are untrue or gross misrepresentations of reality.

SemperLieSuckah: It takes serious balls to just knowingly come out and say things that are untrue or gross misrepresentations of reality.

LoL...the irony...

All that talk about Moore and how he's all Catholic and shiat and not a single question about Hagee.

/god bless the media?
//No, GodDAMN THE LIBERAL MEDIA!!!1!!

/I purposely avoided watching this on teevee...anyone know if the subject of Hagee calling Moore's Church the Great Whore of Babylon came up?
//or just Jeremiah Wright?

SemperLieSuckah: He has got to realize that he is a tremendous bullshiatter.

The president is a tremendous bullshiatter, but I never hear you complain.

Worked for this guy.

Bowling for Columbine was pretty good, actually.

REIN, idiot.

Maybe he'll make a Obama propaganda film. I'm sure by this point he could whip one of those out in just a couple months.

randomjsa: Bowling for Columbine was petty propaganda

bawwwww

Michael Moore pisses me off. In general terms, I agree with him. I may have differences when it comes to specifics, but, in broad terms, I'm with him.

I also think he is very smart and very talented. Very VERY in both cases.

I really wish he'd stop trying to be so fkn "provocative." You've got talent, Mike, use it. He deliberately pokes people in the eye with sharp sticks, then expresses amazement when they get defensive.

Kind of like Ben Stein, only Moore is better at it (admit it, creationist freaks, it's true). I guess my point is - what's the saying? - you catch more flies with honey than vinegar, or something like that?

Dial it down, Mike - it's fine to get belligerent judgmental when your just some anonymous dick on FARK, but when you've got the kind of reach that you do, try formulating a nice, convincing argument, even if it means throwing less red meat to fellow Bush-haters (like me).

/kind of a random rant - sorry - didn't see him on King or anything, just a general irritation I've always had with the guy.

Shaggy_C: Michael Moore is FAT so we don't have to listen to him.

I know you were joking, but the shocking thing is that he isn't "obese" any longer. After Sicko (great film, by the film), he did a lot to get himself in shape. He's still chubby, but he looks ten-times better than that photo.

Too bad Fahrenheit 9/11 was a conspiracy theory. It would have been more effective just as a roundup of all the publicly available information that clearly showed that the March to War was BS.

Michael Moore absolutely irks plenty of people; but he's plenty popular with the younger crowd, and they're a huge part of Obama's base.

It's doubtful that Obama would be negatively affected by this. BTW, could it be argued that Moore may help Obama with the working class white vote? Can it be assumed that Moore, being from Flint, Michigan, and who's covered issues including healthcare and plant closures may bave some sway with older, blue collar voters?

The quality of his mockumentaries is inversely proportional to his level of fatness at the time.

Here's another reason why Obama should be President. (new window)

/not a RR
//I swear

Michael Moore basically appeals to the types who get their view of politics & history from Oliver Stone films. EVERYTHING's a conspiracy. He switched over from Champion of the Downtrodden to Self-Aggrandizing Propagandist long ago.

To be fair... Moore made me laugh once It was in the movie "Arthur"

Sorry had to do it.
He actually made me laugh when he stood in front of the Pillip Morris national headquarters with a megaphone and asked, "What did Phillip Morris die of?"

Other than that, I think he's a nut.

see - not all catholic women are voting for Hillary

This may be the first Presidential candidate that Moore endorses that actually wins. He endorsed Brown in '92, Nader in 2000, Wesley Clark in 2004 and then Kerry when Clarke lost. He clearly holds a LOT of influence.

/Never heard who he endorsed in 1996, but I'd assume it's Clinton if he endorsed anyone.

Michael Moore should go back to making political satire films. *cough* Canadian Bacon *cough*

/wasn't a fan of his documentaries.
//I just didn't like the way some segments were done deliberately misleading.

Ron Paul Revere: //not convinced handguns are necessary to thwart a tyrannical government

Fully automatic rifles with cop-killer bullets, laser scopes and silencers are MY FKN RIGHT!!

...Jefferson said so, or something...*burp*...hand me a Schlitz...

/all rights have limits (write the President a threatening letter and try to defend yourself with "freedom of speech" if you don't believe me) - can we have a reasonable discussion on what those limits should be?
//Unless "we the people" can get B2s and Daisy Cutters, aren't we always going to be out-gunned by the Gov?
///You're best bet is to rely on the educated American citizen-soldier to refuse orders to fire on American civilians. That would be the heroic thing for them to do, right? If they don't refuse, you're fkt, unless you've got some predator drones, and satellites, and cylons tucked away somewhere.
////oh yeah...they got cylons. Some of them look like humans....

the_good_reverend_doctor: Can it be assumed that Moore, being from Flint, Michigan, and who's covered issues including healthcare and plant closures may bave some sway with older, blue collar voters?


Which is kind of ironic, because when you consider his past history, he can't hold down a regular job to save his farking life.

/He's a farking elitist.

Lionel Mandrake: You're best bet is to rely on the educated American citizen-soldier

...forgot to mention: that constant trend of increasing the military budget and cutting education?...not a good sign. Mr. Jefferson would not approve.

Clinton staffer caught talking shiat about Indiana voters to Carville ^{(^)}

i started hating moore when he did that retarded scene in bowling for columbine, where he goes to sarnia and other southern ontario areas and claims they are a canadian "ghetto".

Ever since then i've seen him as a big fat attention whore. And a liar too.

http://www.brocku.ca/maplibrary/atlas96/onhseinc.PDF

Just look at that. I can assure you - that is not a Canadian ghetto.

Also, I had a good chuckle when looking at his Wiki page.

"Controversies"

Main article: Michael Moore controversies

(On said article)

"Fahrenheit 9/11"

See also: Fahrenheit 9/11 controversy

/The stuff about what he said about Cuban refugees is pretty bad.

In his 1997 best-selling book Downsize This!, Moore wrote about Miami's Cuban exiles as "always present and involved . . . in every incident of national torment that has deflated our country for the past three decades," including as examples the Kennedy assassination, Watergate, Iran-Contra and the drug-abuse epidemic. Moore has also referred to Cuban exiles as "Batista supporters" and "wimps" who were wrong not to immediately send home child-boater Elián González. Regarding that controversy, Moore called Elián's mother a child abuser for taking the boy to sea

Wow.

Just wow.

Also, he's not from Flint. Flint is the poor town where the blue collar workers live. Moore is from the next town over, the 98% white one where all the executives live.

Lionel Mandrake

yeah moore is better at presenting his lies.

But he's still a liar.

The_Sponge: /He's a farking elitist.

And you're a fkn tool.

"elitist!" said the little sponge, than pranced about a bit before singling out another person with whom he did not completely agree. He stopped, as if to consider, but, no! It was quite clear! He too was elitist! ""You're an elitist" said the little sponge, totally oblivious to the irony that feeling one's self qualified to designate who or what is or is not elitist, is, in fact, quite elitist. But he was merely a sponge...absorbent and yellow and porous...but not too terribly bright.

But he does so enjoy skipping about and parroting the latest buzzwords! Perhaps tomorrow Hillary, the RNC and Rush will give him a new one - maybe a whole phrase - rhyming or perhaps alliterative! The drones especially love alliteration and rhyme..."as do I," admitted the sponge, sheepishly. "That would be oh so swell!"

Spongey looks forward to that day, but he is quite happy to prance about repeating "elitist! elitist!" for now. Because even if such words ricochet harmlessly of the carapace of undecided democrats or democrat leaning readers of FARK political threads...it still warms his heart so...like record oil profits and Presidential codpieces.

Lionel Mandrake: ...it still warms his heart so...like record oil profits and Presidential codpieces.

Oh Lord, what a laugh!

This story is at least a week old. How did it get green-lighted?

Douglas Adams? Is that you?

/Your profile seems to show that you fit his beliefs as well.

I just call them like I see them, pal.

Michael Moore claims he's a champion of blue collar workers, but he spends his days living in lavish New York City apartment.

He's a hypocrite and a fraud.

So, let's see, Spike Lee and Michael Moorecakeplease. So it's the odd-numbered weeks in the month when we give a rat's about celebrities' political opinions? I can never remember.

I thought they were all spoiled irrelevant dimwits and need to STFU (except Charlton Heston, of course. But he's dead... sorry bout that.)

BuckTurgidson: I thought they were all spoiled irrelevant dimwits and need to STFU (except Charlton Heston, of course. But he's dead... sorry bout that.)

I think the hatred of celebrities comes out of a sheer sense of jealousy. The Republicans may have many powerful businessmen and women at the upper echelons of power in the party, but they don't get name recognition for squat. Plus, they make less money than a celebrity. It's threatening to their cozy world of superiority.

SemperLieSuckah: I am anxiously awaiting Michael Moore's hearth attack.

Yea those fireplaces are killers, man...

I wanna see just how many socialists/communists and super far left loons wind up standing behind Obama. He's not America's first serious Black candidate, he's America's first serious Red candidate.

gotta love seeing a pure Marxist so close to getting the dem. nomination.

// COMRADES!!! Good news from the western front!!!
