"Of course he's entitled to express his opinion --that's what this country is all about," says Burns

The film would be less treasonous if it were just presented as "opinion"... but it's presented as a "documentary" and ignorant voters are buying the lies as outright fact.

Burns concedes that Moore has an agenda, but so what? "Whatever your argument about his methodology, this is a man with a deep, abiding sympathy for the working man," he says.

Michael Moore is a man with a deep abiding sympathy for Michael Moore, and no one else as far as I've been able to determine.

Yeah, until he visits a European country and calls those same Americans the "most stupid people on earth".

Who cares about Ken Burn's opinion is? This is the guy who manufactures history according to the acceptable version of truth funded by Foundations that support PBS! Burn's cut and paste TV docudrama history is nothing more or less than the historical fiction Hollywood manufactures.

Damn...I'm going to be sad throwing out my Civil War tapes. Oh well, buh bye. Ken Burns, you have been voted onto left wing island.

"Of course he's entitled to express his opinion --that's what this country is all about," says Burns, best known for epic documentaries The Civil War, Baseball and Jazz. "You're supposed to be able to stand up here and say, 'This guy is a schmuck.' "

So what's the controversy?
That's the problem with deviants, their brain is not wired for logical thought.

Moore is entitled to an endless train of inanities and distortions, but his critics have a limited, measured dose of criticisms that they may make? And the deviants get to decide what that limit is?

Give me a break!

Oh yeah? Then why doesn't Michael Moore actually live in the neighborhoods of the working man, like in one of the other boroughs, instead of living in Manhattan's Upper West Side. And libs like Burns accuse our side of being superficial and shallow, while all it takes to convince them that Moore is a working class hero is a big belly and a baseball cap.

Whatever your arguments about communism, this is a philosphopy with a deep abiding love for the working man.
