It's going to be fabulous.

It's a little confusing though... how is he going to devote all resources to tracking down Osama Bin Laden and the others while bringing all of the boys and girls in uniform home to eat apple pie and sleep soundly in their warm beds at night?

And how are they going to pay me a better minimum wage? I didn't know that the liberals were responsible for paying people's wages... On my paycheque it has my employer's name and my boss' signature. Does he get the money to pay me from the liberals, or from a big pile of money in Washington somewhere? Last week he laid off two of my coworkers because he said he couldn't afford to pay them any more. And he's been getting calls from his bank saying they want more money from him. I don't get it - doesn't he just have to call Michael Moore or someone else in Washington to clear this all up for him?

And the last thing that confuses me, is why is Michael Moore making all of these promises? What position did he win in the election? I didn't know he was running for office... maybe I wasn't following closely enough. What's his political status? He must have won something pretty big to be able to deliver all this.

Well, despite all my confusion, I'm really glad I read this. It makes me feel so good to know that there's someone out there who's going to fix all these problems. I better go tell my boss - he looks like he's having a bad day and I think he's going to be thrilled to know that Michael Moore is going to fix things up for him.

He isn't paying my bills. I do like some of the **** he says because it needs to be said, regardless if you like it or not. Some of the same people ridiculing this guy in this thread are the same people who were calling people traitors and such that didn't agree with the war, telling people to move to Iraq if you didn't like it Free speech is your constitutional right as long as you don't scream fire in a crowded theater.
Obviously a lot of people like what he has to say or he wouldn't be in business as a film maker. That 9/11 show released nationwide at the megaplexes not at the art houses that are only located in major cities. If I remember right it cost 6 million to make, made over 222 million, with the majority of that made in the UNITED STATES. So obviously there are a lot of American citizens who want to hear what he has to say and he is pretty successful at doing so. I'd bet the majority of the people that hate the guy are Republicans. Well Republicans get ready to get more pissed, he is working on 3 more documentaries that will get released here. One of them will go in depth and cover our healthcare system, one is about US college campuses and the last will be Fahrenheit 9/11 1/2. At least it will provide some thread fireworks when it is released here on Republicans.org, I mean Fireblades.org
Good post.

I am waiting for the health care documentary from Michael Moore. All this policital divisiveness by Republicans has been hiding the much larger issue of medical costs and health care. A topic that effects everyone in this country no matter the polical affiliation. And will cost this nation many times the cost of Iraq. Who else would do such a movie? Spielberg, Lucas, Ron Howard?

Sure Moore definitely has an anti-gun agenda but at least he cares enough about this country to try and change it for the better. Unlike some folks I have come across during my time here on earth.

You know, I feel petty for my earlier snide remark about Moore being jaim's liberal messiah. Apparently I am not beyond immature remarks after all .
But then I realize this whole thing by Moore is actually being considered to be viable and legitimate!
When was it confirmed that the Democratic party, or Liberals, are out for the common good of all Americans, or Republicans are by nature evil and out to ruin the country? Did I miss the memo?
( I don't "believe" in either political party, or the whole "Conservative/liberal" thing, btw)
Where do Democrats/liberals/progressives, etc. get off spouting this rhetoric as if it is established truth?
Are the items on Moore's manifesto supposed to be "changing this country for the better"? IMO, that is "debatable" at the very best, in some cases.
I thought as Americans we want the best for our country. I DO NOT subscribe to the liberal agenda's definition of what that is! Funny how they assume they speak for the bulk of the population, well, at least those who are "enlightened enough" to "get it."
Btw, it seems to me that the "nut and bolts" of working out the "best", according to the People, is fairly difficult. Does the D/L/P group have some special powers that will bring this about? I musta missed that memo too.

No wait.....

Ooops

I knew John kennedy and he didn't know any of them and He's no John Kennedy, he's not even Michael Moore.

Nevery mind. Nancy is a qenius, Carl is a looser and your a bulls**t artist. Is that about right.
