    Michael Moore Documentary: Planet Of The Humans

    Okay. I don't see how any of this is a surprise. P. S. I wonder if they'll mention nuclear.

    Predictions Past (Michael Moore)

    I'm not a huge fan of Michael Moore - I think he tends to delve into some of the logically and intellectually questionable behavior that I despise amongst conservatives. But this prediction that Trump would win, written back in July, seems fairly prescient in retrospect...

    Did 'Sicko' Accurately Depict the Cuban Healthcare System?

    A couple of article in the Guardian raise the question: WikiLeaks: Cuba banned Sicko for depicting 'mythical' healthcare system Michael Moore counters: WikiLeaks cables: Michael Moore film Sicko was 'not banned' in Cuba Finally, regardless of whether it was banned in Cuba or not, does it...

    In this corner..M. Moore and in the other..Hannity!

    Anyone catch the Hannity/Michael Moore debate? I'd be interested in finding a transcript or summary from someone. I missed it due to familial responsibilities (which were vastly more interesting anyway). I did find this snippet...

    Capitalism is evil. That is the conclusion U.S. documentary maker Michael Moore comes to in his latest movie "Capitalism: A Love Story," which premieres at the Venice film festival Sunday. "Capitalism is an evil, and you cannot regulate evil," the two-hour movie concludes. "You have to...

    Stossel Solves the Health Crisis with Capitalism

    Helllooooooooo JREF!!!! I started this thread with the hope of brainstorming some ideas that might help reduce the cost of health care spending in the U.S. The only catch is that is needs to be reduced without switching to a Universal Health Care system. This Stossel video has some good ideas...

    Michael Moore offers terrible reasons to vote for Obama

    Michael Moore offers fallacious reasons to vote for Obama. "Vote for Obama because the current administration sucks." "Vote for Obama because Hillary took cheap shots at him." Anybody have any strong arguments for voting for Obama? Or any candidate for that matter? Surely you can do better...

    Michael Moore & the documentary

    MM is far from perfect, and certainly is not above criticism, but IMHO he gets more than he deserves. The common complaints I hear are that he gets facts wrong, and/or that he is misleading, unobjective, unfair, only shows one side of the story, etc. So my question to the Moore critics: who...

    Michael Moore's "Sicko"

    I know this is a movie, but it seemed far more suited to the politics forum than the entertainment forum, as I am certain it will turn into a political debate anyway. OK, went out and saw Sicko with my parents last night. Sold out showing and I unfortunately ended up seated in front of a person...

    Has Michael Moore become a full blown Truther?

    So has Michael gone over to the Truther side? Prisonplanet seems to think so. http://prisonplanet.com/articles/june2007/190607Moore.htm Here's a snippet. This guy just keeps giving me more reasons to hate him.

    My plan for Micheal Moore

    I like Moore and have enjoyed his films...flawed as they are, they are amusing and make interesting points. However, I think given his rage against the machine...that we should help him screw big corporations (i.e. the big entertainment companies that our killing our culture and limiting free...

    Fox News Reviews Michael Moore's Sicko

    Don't let the thread title prejudice you. Someone must be asleep at the switch in O'Reillyland, since this review is positive, nay, glowing. I've never been a fan of Moore's work, but I'm inclined to rush out to this one thanks to reviewer Roger Friedman. Will Friedman have a job...

    Another School Shooting, time to attack Michael Moore again

    Yep, MM is a proven fraud, liar, etc, etc, much like Ann Coulter, I hear. Meanwhile, another school shooting. Something is seriously wrong, so it must be time for some more nitpicking on just who did what and cut what where. http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/03/21/school.shooting/index.html

    Bowling For Michael Moore's Bodyguard

    Can we get a Michael Moore "pwn3d!" graphic?

    If this is a redundant topic I apologize. Considering how irritating he was making the fake photo with him and Bush for Fahrenheit 9/11, I think it's only fair that he get a "pwn3d!" pic for internet conservatives to use, preferably with Bush looking happy and him looking beat. Heck, I'll do...

    MOORE SHUTS DOWN HIS WEBSITE...RUNS AWAY TO CRY

    Some people don't have a clue as to how to be gracious. MM hates Bush (and America) so much that instead of asking his minions to respect the results of our democracy and come together as a nation he petulantly shuts his website and hides in shame. www.michaelmoore.com Moore did his best to...

    More Moore Dishonesty?

    Gene Weingarten does a humor column for the Washington Post, as well as a weekly online chat. A couple of weeks ago, he defended Farenheit 911 for reasons he best explains in this link to today's chat. But today, he repents. It seems Michael Moore has fabricated a truth out of sneaky editing, a...

    O'Reilly & Moore

    Oy. Michael Moore was as unfocused, irrelevant and slippery as much of his movie. The truth is devastating enough. Why does he have to distract with nonsense? They spent most of the interview with O'Reilly pressing Moore to explain how Bush "lied" if he believed he was correct. Moore could only...
