MM raises debate and asks some important questions, kudos for a job well done.

His documentaries like any other should never be counted as 100% fact alone, always check them if in doubt like you would any other information, he prolly lies his part just like any other and what you see in his doc`s are his views not an objective investigation.

Knowing that i love his films

Wait behind the line ..............................................................

Regardless of your opinion, Farenheit 9-11 is the top grossing doc ever. Sorry.

Regardless of your ignorance, it is not a documentary, even Michael Moore denies it is a documentary when asked point blank.

In short, Michael Moore does a disservice to whatever topic he champions.

In trying to prove a point, he lies, exaggerates, fabricates evidence, and generally makes an ass of himself. In so doing, he tarnishes the validity of whatever cause he is trying to support.

With friends like that, you don't need enemies..

yes of course you ALLs exaggerate and fabricate evidence. I burn a piece of paper....my enemy says i burned a puppy to make me look bad.

Documentary or no documentary he presents facts does he not?

I am only harbouring a guess as i would expect a spate of lawsuits if he went about slandering people and spouting false assertions...

Is this a case of the truth hurts?

Michael Moore is a complete jackass, period, and if you take anything he says as serious, then you are a complete jackass aswell. While his movies are loosely based on facts, they are not explained/shown/or presented in their straight-forward form. He takes seemingly irrelevant information and manipulates it with his own opinions about what might have been happening, and displays them to the audience as fact. But he'll never claim that "it" happened, he just speculates and gives opinion. It's the stupid people in this world that fuel his movies. Stupid people watch these films mesmerized by what is going on, and truly believing that the information being shown is legit. It's the way the information is being fed to the viewer, that's all, and he's damn good at doing this. I personally wish he would choke on a hamburger.

I on the other hand am not guessing. No, he does not get sued ( and here lies the Fact of the matter ) He can not be sued, Because it is an OP ED not a factual documentary.

Had he made the claim “it’s a documentary “ been he would have had his ass handed to him because you cannot make up stories about people just to slander them.

This is what cost Alexander Hamilton his life in Jersey City.

I liked his Canadian Bacon film.

Possibly it's because I'm not American or Canadian, but the only decent jokes I found in the whole film were trying to convince someone to throw themselves off Niagara Falls and translating a whole pile of anti-Canadian slogans into French.

Roger and Me was a well made film that raised some decent issues. Defiantly the best thing he's done and the only thing I'd recommend other people to watch

"Bowling for Columbine" is my personal favorite of his.

Moore is a propagandist for sure, but he does make a few good points here and there. He'd be a lot more effective if he had far less of an ego and far more of an adherence to strict rationalism and facts.

Not a worshipper, but he makes some great points. I think there are other things people should be complaining about. Micheal Moore knows that if you hate him, you hate him, and if you don't, you don't. If you don't want to see his movies, fine, if not, why complain? At least he uses his head. I'd rather be led by Michael Moore than by some fascist asshole from god knows where who doesn't know where Russia is located.

+1 for perfectly correcting another simple minded fool.

People if you do any research behind Fahrenheit 9-11 and Bowling for Columbine, Moore carefully edits and takes a lot of "facts" out of context where they become false. Regardless of his points, he does MORE damage due to lack of credibility.

This fat bastard takes facts and twists them to suit his own agenda. He's just as bad GWB.

Just as bad? He is 100000000000x worse than GWB. GWB's "twisting of facts" has some basis in reality. Michel Moore is just insane. It is almost as if he tries to see how far he can push his fary tails before even democrats start flaming him...

When you first started posting in D&ST, I predicted that you would turn into another Bubbalo. Little did I know how accurate my prediction was...
Seriously, this is the kind of BS post that one would expect from Micheal Moore himself. Had I not read some of your past posts, and knew how liberal you can be, I would have thought that to be sarcasm.

Bill O' Reilly is just obsessed with portraying the image of the reasonable, moderate referee. He doesn't stand up enough for what he believes in because he thinks that the answer to everything is compromise. He usually makes sure too balance things out so that he doesn't look like he is picking sides.
