You know Cidien it is so refreshing to see someone else on this board who has the same political convictions as myself. Hannity rules. 
I first took issue with Michael Moore back in 2002 when he was doing a little speaking tour of the nation. He was much more of a 'fringe unknown' back then. I was working at a locally owned bookstore and we heard he was coming to town and that his speaking tour was sponsored by, get this, BORDERS BOOKS. Now why this is so hypocritical is that Moore always touts that he is the champion of the common man and the 'enemy' of big business. He is the kind of person who claims to defend the locally owned stores from take over by corporate giants such as Borders books. He had 'no comment' about the endorsement, go figure. Anyway, what is sad is that the bookstore eventually closed because ever since Borders rolled into town, they saw a HUGE drop in business. So, where is Mr. Moore now? I thought he 'cared' about stuff like that. Obviously he cares more about his $$$ than his so called 'values'.
Now to be fair, I personally don't have a problem with any 'big' business, if anything it is good for the economy because they can offer consumers products at lower prices which is good. I just found his behavior hypocritical and that is why we made a stink about it.
I think Moore is dishonest. While I find him quite entertaining sometimes, everything he produces is a work of fiction. He takes facts and figures and twists them so much that they aren't even in the realm of reasonable fact anymore. He is all about scare tactics, leftist propaganda, and socialism.
If I can give him any credit it is good how he has gotten people out to vote.
All I can say is that you know that secretly Moore wants Bush to win because if Kerry won he'd be out of a job.
