What thoughts or feelings do you have towards Michael Moore..............slob, leftist liberal, etc

Charlie

bright, caring, patriotic, not afraid to voice opinions you don't like. he has the same right as you do charlie, to voice an opinion.

I feel if the Man doesn't like our Military Men/Women then he has the right to his Opinion.. but if I were him, I wouldn't be running my Mouth in a Bar when Our Boy's get Home!!!!!!

Hog

he never said anything negative about our military men and woman and he has said on other occassions, bring our people home safe and sound and quickly.

There is a time and a place for everything to be said.
Even Barbara Streisand only went so far as to say she loves freedom of speach and that even artists have that right as do the rest of us.

As for Michael MooreON... F'k him. It was Oscar night not his own political venue to spew garbage. The fact that he and his associates wore Peace Pins were sufficinet. He should not have attacked President Bush or the troops. Wrong place, wrong time.

Michael, if you read these posts... I would not visit Texas any time soon!

I'm fence sitting: I'll say he has the right to think and say whatever he believes, but a poor choice in timing. In the words of Slimboli, "Wrong Board".

It's common knowledge that Michael Moore doesn't like our President or how he got there (let's not get into that debate) and he doesn't believe there is ever a time for war. His ideas, beliefs and opinions are protected just as much as any of us who are pro-Bush, pro-military and believe that there is a time when strength and might is necessary for the relief of an oppressed people.
But last night's stage was for the Academy Awards, not an Anti-(fill-in-the-blank) protest.

Rick, why don't you and Michael Moore set around and smoke a cigar (whoops, he is violently anti smoking of any kind) or have a drink and disucss things on the liberal left.

I am sure he would be happy to tell you just how great Saddam Huessein happens to be as it is his right to do so...........The man is a negative, sick fat slob! Probaly very anti military!

Charlie

What a disrespectful piece of ****.

Apparently, there needs to be yet another celebrity self gratifying show..."The Political Views and Opinions Of The Priveledge Few in Hollywood".

HA!

Freedom of speech...

E-Chick

disrespectful to who?

The disrespect that he showed certainly (and most probably without thinking about it) towards the families and friends of the people that have already lost their lives in this war...

...not that they may have been watching such a frivolous tv awards show during their time of mourning, but nonetheless...disrespectful!

I, for one, was thankfully NOT an audience to it.

"bring our people home safe and sound and quickly."...amen!

Rick

Get some smarts on this subject.

Disrespectful to the troops who are captured, and the ones who were executed by the Iraqis...the troops who have died to give this fat SOB the "right" to voice out his ignorant opinion.

Disrespectful to the President of the United States.

Disrespectful to the Awards ceremony.

Disrespectful to all those who died or those who lost friends and family in the Twin Towers on 911.

You go ahead and defend this piece of garbage. Who did not speak out against Billy Clinton when he attacked Bosnia and when he "retailated" against Osama Bin Laden with a cruise missle that killed a couple of camels and some desert fauna!

Charlie

The film he won for was about violence and guns in the US. He should have come out and mentioned that unlike the people in the movies, the people that I showed in my film can't get up when the director yells "that's a rap," they are dead. he should have stuck to what his movie was about and he could have sent a message that way and gotten applause. instead he made people angry and they will never forget this when hey think of him. i was going to buy "bowling" on dvd when it came out b/c i thought it was very good, but now i'm not.

Oh boy do I feel like a dummy. I never heard of Michael Moore till this new story broke. I gather he's an actor.

I do feel that the Oscars shot themselves in the foot bigtime by not postponing the show for a more appropirate day.

And another thing...

He forgot to say in regards to the fictitious deaths of our fictitious US Military Troops, that he will forever be fictitiously grateful for their fictitious choice of job in protecting our fictitious Rights and Freedoms as US of A Citizens...


"And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there. Oh! say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?...Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto, "In God is our trust" and the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave...."

Some of you may need to look up ALL of the words to our National Anthem...

Michael Moore's demeanor was totally inappropriate.

Personally, I felt that it was only a matter of time until the United States had to militarily confront the Iraqi fascist. Saddam Hussein, without question, would have waited until he possessed all the instruments of mass destruction to avenge the U.S. bombing of Iraq and defense of Kuwait in 1991.

Michael Moore may disagree with U.S. policy, but the venue he selected and the manner of his comments, I thought, were not just critical of U.S. policy, but supportive of Saddam Hussein, and that I believe is unforgiveable.

Michael Moore is entitled to his opinion, and it is his right to express it. But the time is long past and the place was completely inappropriate.

I believe that when the decision is finally made, whether you totally agree with it or not, to send troops into harms way then it is incumbent on the rest of us to get in line and support them. Totally, in whatever way we can.

How do you think the folks on the ground in Iraq and nearby environs will feel seeing Michael Moore on Al Jazeera TV being represented as indicative of the majority American opinion towards their efforts to remove a sick regime from power?

And you can bet that the Iraqi info people or their sympathizers won't overlook the opportunity to do so. Maybe Michael Moore should talk to some of the "human shield" folks who so quickly exited Iraq with a completely reshaped opinion of what a sick group of S**s these guys are.

Mr. Moore does know a thing or two about fictitious.

Michael Moore's Oscar-contender documentary, Bowling for Columbine, pokes fun at corporate creeps and hypocrites in his crusade to figure out who is to blame for the gun-related violence in America. But we've found Moore's facts a little slippery.

TITLE: Moore titled the movie Bowling for Columbine because, he suggests, the two kids who shot up Columbine High in Littleton, Colo., went to a 6 a.m. bowling class on the day of the attack.
ACTUALLY: Cool story, but police say it's not true. They say the shooters skipped their bowling class that day.

MISSILES: Moore wonders whether kids at Columbine might be driven to violence because of the "weapons of mass destruction" made in Lockheed Martin's assembly plant in Littleton. Moore shows giant rockets being assembled.
ACTUALLY: Lockheed Martin's plant in Littleton doesn't make weapons. It makes space launch vehicles for TV satellites.

WELFARE: Moore places blame for a shooting by a child in Michigan on the work-to-welfare program that prevented the boy's mother from spending time with him.
ACTUALLY: Moore doesn't mention that mom had sent the boy to live in a house where her brother and a friend kept drugs and guns.

BANK: Moore says North Country Bank & Trust in Traverse City, Mich., offered a deal where, "if you opened an account, the bank would give you a gun." He walks into a branch and walks out with a gun.
ACTUALLY: Moore didn't just walk in off the street and get a gun. The transaction was staged for cameras. You have to buy a long-term CD, then go to a gun shop to pick up the weapon after a background check.

The Oscars have a long history of political statement. You win the statue, the stage is yours, you have 30 seconds to say what you want. Personally, I don't agree with what he had to say. He is a bit of a paranoid conspiracy theorist. But he said it. GWB is still in office, the war is still being fought,and we are all still checking cbid. Some feelings got hurt I guess. Happens all the time. So what? I feel real pain about whats happening in Iraq. Particularly seeing POWs and dead Americans. Let the fringe talk. It's not unAmerican. At this point the course will not be changed. Moore is just one more guy who wants everyone to see and do things his way. He doesn't understand that he often reduces himself to the role of a buffoon in trying to make his point.
