THANK YOU, MICHAEL MOORE!
Edited on Thu Nov-04-04 07:11 PM by TexasSissy
Thank you for the wonderful film, F9/11, that galvanized tens of thousands of people and made them aware of just who and what they were up against and being ruled by!

Thank you for contributing some of your profits to charity!

Thank you for caring so much about your state, your hometown, your country!

Thank you for all the days and weeks and months of campaigning around the country! The 24 hour stints of nonstop campaigning, the devotion and loyalty to Kerry, though he wasn't your candidate to begin with!

Thank you for not just a wonderfully informative documentary, but also a wonderful entertaining documentary! The Repubs have NOTHING and NO ONE to compare to the likes of you and Springsteen!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for fighting the good fight! Taking all the personal insults! For caring! For inspiring! For helping! For contributing! THANK YOU!

1. You clearly don't understand the point of this forum
It's called General Discussion: Fighting and Acrimony. I think you want General Discussion: Help and Support.

6. Fighting? You want fighting? :)
I strongly dislike Michael Moore. I think he's bad for the Democratc cause. He takes things out of context and turns them into half truths that hurt our cause more than help.

We here all know that Bush is bad for America. We know why.

Michael Moore's "Bowling" was such a piece of fiction that it destroyed all his credibility to those who took the time to check the facts.

He means well and his heart is in the right place, but his head isn't. I'm glad he's willing to give money to Democratic causes, but if he were a republican we'd have a field day with his fabrications.

7. I disagree. I think we would've have FEWER votes had it not been
for F9/11. My stepnephew, for example, lives in Repub-land with my Repub born again father and Repub born again stepmother (well, he lives close to them & goes there every day).

He saw F9/11, and it gave him insight to the man we call W. He debated with my stepmother daily, trying to convert her, etc., etc. That didn't happen.

But it galvanized, enthused, and riled up a lot of people. There were only a couple of smallish facts in the film that were questionable. As far as I know, the rest was true. It did not pretend to present BOTH sides. It was his view of Bush. His documentary. His vision.

It was great.

Sounds like you're taking the Repub line and falling for it. They say that having Springsteen on our side hurt us. If you believe that, well, you don't understand the Dem. Party. Springsteen, Moore, and others ARE a big part of the Dem. Party, like it or not.

That bastard dared to tell the truth and cost us big. Just like that newsome guy who dared believe in civil rights.

Please go to the other wussie forum.

8. I'd also like to thank Michael's little known brother-
Zeppo Moore.

He did absolutely nothing.

The Repubs don't hate him. So he must've done something right.

16. Moore is a symptom
Of what is both wrong and right with the party. Good effort, but devastatingly poor tactics.
