Has Michael Moore become a full blown Truther?

The Swift Boat Vets are about the same as Michael Moore in my estimation. They both bend the truth for a political agenda.

But anyway, why has this thread not been moved to the politics forum?



The topic of the thread is Michael Moore and his potential CT-ness. ConspiRaider and Pomeroo have derailed it.

Do you really? Know a lot about Kerry? Wanna guess how many medals he got?

Give up?

Here you go:
http://www.awolbush.com/images/Kerry_Military_awards.jpg

Just in case the image did not load, here they are, Big Ron:

1. Silver Star
2. Bronze Star with Combat V
3. Purple Heart (first)
4. Purple Heart (second)
5. Purple Heart (third)
6. Combat Action Ribbon
7. Presidential Unit Citation
8. Navy Unit Commendation
9. National Defense Service Medal
10. Vietnam Service Medal
11. Republic of Vietnam, Meritorious Unit Citation, Gallantry Cross Medal with Palm
12. Republic of Vietnam, Meritorious Unit Citation, Civil Action Medal with Palm
13. Republic of Vietnam, Campaign Medal

Now, then guess how many medals sissy-boy Bush got. Give up? NONE. Technically he may have been authorized 2 minor ones. But he has no medals (according to the report I saw) credited on his military discharge.


Why should I guess about Kerry's medals? The book by the Swiftees discusses them in detail. Kerry's purple hearts are bad jokes. He and the Swift Boat vets disagree about his other ribbons, but Kerry apparently forgot his promise to release ALL of his relevant military records to settle the disputes.

I find it strange that someone who describes himself as a vet is defending a scoundrel who gained celebrity by lying about men who fought bravely and honorably in an unpopular and misguided war.

Do you think it's possible that Kerry was both a heroic war veteran, and gained celebrity by lying about men who fought bravely and honorably in an unpopular and misguided war?

The Swift Boat vets are honorable men. Tell us how they bent the truth. Their political agenda was to defeat a man they regard with contempt for his vicious, self-serving smears of their comrades.

I don't have a personal opinion, as I wasn't there. The Swiftees are men who observed Kerry closely and they don't find him very heroic.

Yes, I know. I just think the mods should have moved the derailed segment of the thread to politics before it turned into a monster. I see very few posts having to do with Michael Moore's avowal or disavowal of 9/11 CT.

It is disgraceful to call a man who logged hundreds of hours flying a fighter jet a sissy.

Hey, can we at least talk about important stuff, like the upcoming election instead of fighting about the last one again? Like, will Hillary nuke Iran, or just give them a firm scolding? Who looks better in pearls, Hillary or Bill? Will Gravy accept appointment to head the Department of Homeland Security? Will Condi declare herself Queen, and who can oppose her if she does? Can I be Secretary of the Navy, or at least CNO for a day? Can we please just go ahead and annex Canada before they attack us? Makes me pretty nervous, being up on top of us!
Come on, let's talk the real issues!

But, it's going to come down to 'who has the best smile', etc.

Why don't we have a Department of Debunking? That would be sweet!

Gravy, of course, could be the inaugral Secretary.

Inaugural? Hell, they'd make him Secretary for Life! Be sort of like a Supreme Court Justice!

You're right, I was too kind, which can be viewed by some as disgraceful. He was also an alcoholic, a user of cocaine, and was convicted of drunk driving. And his wife wasn't too good at handling a car either. She killed a teenager with her car (ran a stop sign at an intersection, smashed into car across the intersection, speed of her vehicle "smudged" on police report) - and didn't even receive a ticket! I wonder if Hillary had done that? You know what would have happened? The Republican smear and hate machine would have ensured that not a bit of Hillary's DNA remained on planet Earth. But Laura gets a pass. Hmm. Anyway back to GW Bush. He was AWOL. You don't know what that means? Absent Without Leave. I think it's closer to desertion, in his case.

If Kerry was this reprehensible - then why, all of a sudden, have the Swift Boaters melted back into the woodwork, Ron? Hmm? After all we have a traitor (according to you) on the loose! Get Kerry out of the Senate! Yeah, right. Don't hear much from the Swifters anymore. Did you know, by the way, that their campaign against Kerry was heavily funded by a Republican? Did you know that? Tens of thousands of dollars - or much more.

This is entirely off-topic but your mention of the Supreme Court Justices reminded me of this recent drop-dead hilarious piece from the Onion and, hell, this thread could use some comic relief anyway :)

Supreme Court Reaches Landmark 'It Depends' Ruling

In a landmark 8-1 decision, an uncharacteristically subdued Supreme Court ruled "it depends" in the case of Panetti v. Quarterman, leaving the issue of executing the mentally ill completely open-ended.

The entirely indeterminate ruling is a first for the high court.

The case, which challenged the extent to which the Eighth Amendment permits the execution of a mentally ill death row inmate who has a factual awareness of the reason for his punishment but does not comprehend its retributive nature, was described in Chief Justice John Roberts' majority opinion as being "way too tough to call."

It really should be read in full to truly appreciated it (and it is not very long at all) but here are a few of my favourite lines from the story.

"We're just nine justices—we don't have all the answers to all the country's legal problems," Breyer added.
Hundreds of "seriously legal-looking" documents such as amicus briefs and depositions from mental health experts only served to further confuse members of the high court.
"Now Brown v. Board of Education—that was a no-brainer," said Justice Stephen Breyer, referring to the landmark school-desegregation case. "I wish I could have been on the Supreme Court then.

I think the real question is who's smarter. Kerry, who got sent to Veitnam, Bush, who got himself into the National Gaurd, or Clinton, who skipped the country and went to Europe?

Have we learned nothing from the whole Perry Logan affair? Give it a rest guys. :boxedin:
 
Back on topic.... do the guys at IMDB have a good sense of humour or is their use of CT language just a coincidence?

"Moore: "Film Leak Was an Inside Job"


Documentary maker Michael Moore has accused movie executives of leaking his new film Sicko on the internet because he insists the weekend controversy must have been an inside job. The editors of video-sharing website YouTube.com were forced to pull links to pirated versions of Moore's new U.S. healthcare film after learning as many as 600 people had seen the movie illegally online. But Moore isn't buying suggestions the leak was a mistake or the result of a clever pirate - because the online footage was too good. He fumes, "The film that's leaked onto the internet is not taken at a movie theatre with a little home movie camera the way it's usually done. This is the master. This is the actual digital; it's perfect. You can't really get that unless you've been able to perform an inside job. If you were a police detective, one of the first questions you would ask is about motive: Who has a vested interest in ruining the opening weekend's box office of this movie? If I were the police or FBI investigating this felony that's taken place, that's where I would look." "

Also, I must admit, Moore ranting about an "inside job" makes him sound a bit twoofy.

I'd say it's less about the truth and more (Moore) about the money.... Oh hang on, that's what a twofer is isn't it....
