Robert Greenwald > Michael Moore

[sysoprock]

Outfoxed and Uncovered blow anything that Moore has done right out of the water.

I haven't taken Moore seriously since his allegation that the KKK and NRA were in cahoots in Bowling For Columbine.

I appriciate him for helping people to vote against Bush, but I think hes just a Rush Limbaugh of the left.

P.S. Dude had balls going to the RNC, props for that.

1. "Rush Limbaugh of the Left"?

That's nuts. Rush hasn't done an honest day's work in his life.

3. well....

Well yeah, mabye that is a bit rash, comparing him to Rush.

However, it seems like Moore is a lightening rod for hating on the democrats, which is funny seeing as how he was all about the green party in 2000.

I just think that he interjects too much of his opinion into things and it ends up wrecking the credibility of the good points that he does make.

He pointed out so many good facts about the contracts given to reconstruction companies, and Bush's connections to the Saudis, but then he goes on about how Bush sat in a classroom for seven minutes speculating on what he might have been thinking.

With bits like that it seems like he turns it from a good documentary to something akin to Rush Limbaugh, except on the left.

4. A lightning rod for hating on Democrats, which is funny,

Moore is not a Democrat, he is an independent.

He injects his opinion into things because ALL documentarians do that. There is no such thing as a documentary without a point of view!

Moore has his facts straight, Rush does not. Rush lies.

Your post makes no sense.

5. do agree with you there

I have been turned off by Moore's "dramatization". Instead of letting facts speak for themselves, he pulls a Spielberg and goes for the heartsrings...

Not always, just sometimes. "Uncovered" kicks ass because of the credentials of Greenwald's talking heads. I bought 20 copies of it and am handing them out in NV and AZ to undecideds. It's unbelievable that this film hasn't gotten more press.

2. Unlike Rush at least Mike is dead on with the facts 95% of the time if

not more.

I have yet to ever Rush tell the truth about ANYTHING.
