Fox News is beginning its assault on the Michael Moore’s new documentary, “Capitalism: A Love Story.” In his new documentary, Moore concludes, “You have to eliminate and replace it with something that is good for all people and that something is democracy.”

Yesterday, Fox News hosted former Congressman Tom Tancredo, who bashed Moore and derided the perils of a welfare state. But after calling Moore “stupid,” “kind of a goofball,” and “a freaky guy,” Tancredo ironically begged Moore to send him a check:

TANCREDO: Hey, Michael, Michael, look at — look at me. To each according to his needs, from each according to their abilities. Buddy, you have got more money. I need some of it, OK? We had a rough winter here.

SULLIVAN: Yes.

TANCREDO: It’s been tough. So, spread the wealth a little bit. Of course he isn’t. He is a hypocrite on top of it. But who in this administration feels like he does?

SULLIVAN: He does donate — he does donate a good percentage, but he should…

TANCREDO: Yes.

SULLIVAN: But, if he believes that, he should donate it all.

TANCREDO: That is exactly right. It’s to each according to his needs. And, believe me, there are a lot more people in this country who need it more than he does. I am one. Send me a check.

Can it get anymore 'Fair and Balanced'

2. 2 Douche bags
Trying to out douche each other. Tom Tancredo has a lot of nerve calling Michael Moore "creepy". Did he ever get that quote right?

3. Don't stop them, let them continue spewing out their garbage against MM's new documentary
' Capitalism, A Love Story '. The more repukes trash-talk MM and his flick, the more curious people will become to check out the film for themselves. Consider it FREE Advertising & Promotion for MM generating even more urban buzz for his film.

4. This goofball Tancredo doesn't know what sycophant means...
or he'd realize that when he uses the term Sycophant

THE STUPID f*D UP GOOFBALL SYCOPHANTIC WHACK-OUT IS
ACTUALLY TALKING ABOUT HIMSELF!

Where does the right get all these clowns?

Sycophant is a Greek word that suggests someone who brings all kinds of charges and proves none, according to a client of Demosthenes (Demos. Ivii.34). A client of Lysias adds the perspective of blackmail: 'It is their practice to bring charges even against those who have done no wrong. For from these they would gain most profit (Lysias, xxv.3). In this context the word entails false accusation, malicious prosecution and abuse of legal process for mischievous or fraudulent purposes.

5. Who is that jerk? You can always tell they don't know what they
are talking about when they are so upset they can't find the words to explain why they are so upset. We're number two in the world for capitalistic countrys and Cuba is the most socialistic country. Norway and sweden are around 50th for capitalism (out of 250 or so countries)and they have health care and education covered for their country. It would be really hard for us to suddenly get to socialism....

7. "In order to lose 14,000 jobs"
"you have to have created 14,000 jobs in the first place"??????? Really? That is how you are going to bash Michael Moore? What a couple of douchebags.

8. There's Capitalism.... and there's Unregulated Capitalism
The unregulated kind is what gave us wage slavery and the Great Depression. The regulated kind is what gave us the New Deal and all those roads and bridges and dams, and electric grids and telephone lines in places other than just big cities....that make whatever kind of Capitalism we have today work.

But subtleties like that are just for Lefties of course.

10. It's amazing to me how bad the propaganda is on Faux. But there are still enough morons
in the country to lap it up.
The cognitive dissonance of these people should be enough to have them committed.
