Whoever listen's to a bitter nut like Micheal Moore, and actually believes what he says is the "truth" has no credibility in my eyes. When will the far left realize that those sentiments don't resinate with the majority of American's.

Michael Moore is a genius.... More people should listen to him instead of attacking him. Those of you who are attacking him... I'd have to question why you are doing it.. Are you NRA members unhappy about Bowling for Columbine, or are you proud GM owners who don't like the fact that Roger Smith took some heat from Mr. Moore? Maybe you've taken issue with one of the stories on TV Nation... Who knows... maybe you didn't like Canadian Bacon.. Anyways.. he's a genius and more of you should open your eyes and realize this and instead of attacking him and criticizing him you should listen to his words. No matter his reasons for speaking, personally I don't care what they are, his words ring true.
I rest my case. :eek:
Maybe it's just me... but I'm pretty sure you should make a point before resting your case.
Just a suggestion......
You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper out there is white, the best golfer is black, the French are calling the US arrogant and the Germans don't want to go to war.

Hey so we agree to disagree! These are just my opinions and you have yours. I have nothing against the French i just dont like what their government is doing. I don't hate the liberals in my country i just STRONGLY disagree with them. The case was made in my own mind and maybe those who agree with me. At the end of the day i leave politics where it belongs, in the forums and debating arena's in which they take place. For example im a conservative and one of my best friends is a liberal, when i see him coming up to me to talk the fact that he is a liberal doesnt even cross my mind. For those of you Americans in here that watch Fox news, Allen Combs is my favorite Democrat. LOL :D
Well said nix347...That's the important thing that we all have to remember.... politics needs to be left here... Peoples political views shouldn't get in the way of friendships and aquaintances.... That's the nice thing about AO... lately everyone has been realizing leave the politics here in Cosmos and get down to business with the rest of the board.
I use to like GM products pre "Roger & Me" days, you had to fix them but you could do it yourself. As far as Moore thinking Roger Smith had to suck up to him, well hey it's capitalism. One doesn't have to like GM, I don't like Moore.
In honesty after seeing his other work, I wouldn't pay to see "Bowling for Columbine", if it's ever of "free" tv I'll give it a view, I won't directly pay Mr Moore to have more reason to dislike him.
As far as taking shots at the NRA, I was a member about 20 years ago. When the anti gun lobby went "all or nothing" ( a viewpoint not supported by me on any issue) and then the NRA went to "all or nothing", I "voted" by not renewing my membership. I believe in a free and democratic society, gun ownership can be a good thing. One can hunt, one can protect one's life or one can shoot holes in tin cans. I live in Vermont USA, we have the LEAST gun laws in the country, we have the worst ratings by the anti-gun lobby and we have the lowest crime rate in the USA. The issue of violence isn't guns, it's violence.
First for those who are not french, EACH YEAR we make an anniversary of the liberation by the US. In Normandie we have plenty museum that explain the liberation. So when US says that we don't remember you can't imagine what we fell, how that hurt us.

I'm sorry but that's what the US have done not France. France has just gone and see some country to explain their point of view and have paid no one.Quote:
correct me if im wrong but,
i dont think that the US paid other countries off to be against the war (WWII) like france.
Negative says :
So US make the war for the oil !Quote:
So what we have here basically is:
- The French - already have the contracts with Iraq - opposed to war.
- The Americans - no contracts yet - at war.
I forgot,
If France is against USA why Mr Chirac said that US planes can fly over the french territory ?
I really don't think we are fighting this war since we are getting less than 5% of our oil from Iraq. We are fighting this war because we are finding everything that Saddam said he didn't have.
As far as Mr.Moore goes I think what he said was completely wrong. He's just one of those uneducated left wing democrats. Him and all of those antiwar protesters saying that by fighting this war we are gonna kill lots of innocent children and people. Well what about the innocent children and people in the Twin Towers. They never did anything to anybody. You might come back and say well Iraq didn't do anything to anybody either, but its not Iraq we are fighting. We are fighting the regime of Saddam Hussein. Not the people, not the children, just the regime.
Keep in mind that Saddam will do anything that he thinks will help his country, which includes launching missiles at his own people and blaming it on us (U.S.).
